jkakarDo all Launchpad Blog entries get aggregated on Ubuntu Planet... can I remove Launchpad Blog from my reader?00:46
* Fujitsu wonders if it is a coincidence that most of the projects properly using Launchpad (jokosher, inkscape) are run by Canonical employees.00:55
Fujitsuschooltool...00:55
jkakarFujitsu: What do you mean by "properly"?  Zope and Zope 3 use Launchpad, which are projects not run by Canonical employees.00:57
FujitsuHm, I guess.00:57
lifelessFujitsu: When you say most, did you survey? Or is it just a random figure?00:59
lifelessI'd add paramiko to the list of non-canonical using-launchpad, offhand.00:59
Fujitsulifeless: I did not survey, but the ones I know of largely seem to be (I didn't know that paramiko did)01:00
* Fujitsu looks further.01:00
lifelessyou can check the 'uses launchpad for XXX' settings01:01
lifelesseg. translations or bugs or packaging01:01
FujitsuYou can't actually search by them, though, can you?01:01
lifelessgoogle probably can :)01:01
FujitsuHaha.01:01
jameshFujitsu: Inkscape will be using Launchpad for bug tracking soon.  Does that count as properly?01:02
jameshoops.  that's by a canonical employee :)01:03
Fujitsujamesh: Bryce Harringotn.01:03
FujitsuYes.01:03
FujitsuEr, spelt properly.01:03
jameshFujitsu: one of the other larger ones is the Silva CMS01:04
jamesh(yet another CMS built on top of Zope)01:04
elmoFujitsu: the schooltool people are not Canonical employees01:05
Fujitsuelmo: True, but they're quite related.01:05
elmoFujitsu: no, they're really not.  Mark's involved in schooltool, but that's a different thing01:06
elmo(maybe not pertinent to your point/argument, but it's an important distinction outside of that)01:06
jameshFujitsu: https://launchpad.net/moblin is another01:08
Fujitsujamesh: A Google shows quite a number, but I've never heard of most of them.01:08
* Fujitsu returns to his cave.01:08

=== mthaddon changed the topic of #launchpad to: Launchpad is going down for maintenance from 02:00 UTC to approx 06:00 UTC - Next developer meeting: Thu 29 Nov 2007, 1400UTC | List: launchpad-users@lists.canonical.com | Support: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad | Help: https://help.launchpad.net | Channel logs: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ | Join the beta team: https://help.launchpad.net/JoiningLaunchpadBetaTesters
Hobbseejkakar: you're not build-depending on debhelper.02:34
Hobbseejkakar: you're also not build-depending on lsb-release02:35
Hobbseejkakar: therefore, your build will fail.  they're not in build-essential.02:35
Hobbseejkakar: so, it's not the buildd that has the problem - i'm afraid it's your package02:35
Hobbseemorning cprov 02:35
cprovHobbsee: hey02:36
cprovwell, the night will be very boring w/o LP, let me have some sleep, g'night folks02:39
=== cprov is now known as cprov-ZzZ
Hobbseecprov-ZzZ: oops, you broke it :)02:39
Hobbseegrah!!!!  forgot about the upgrade.02:55
FujitsuHobbsee: Upgrade Extra Long Edition, too.02:57
Hobbseeyup02:57
jkakarHobbsee: Hmm.  I wonder if someone changed something; those Build-Depends are in the code I'm looking at. :)03:01
Hobbseejkakar: they're not in the version that got uploaded to launchpad.  mind pastign your debian/control file somewhere?03:02
jkakarHobbsee: Uh.  Crap.  Somethings going wrong somewhere.  This thing is b0rked.03:04
jkakarHobbsee: Thanks for looking and mentioning that. :)03:04
Hobbseejkakar: no problem.  i thought it was.03:05
Hobbseejkakar: it'd be *awful* odd to get an error like that on a buildd.03:05
Hobbseejkakar: btw, some crazy people do do their packaging entirely without debhelper, so it's not quite mandatory.03:05
jkakarHobbsee: Right.  We use AutoPPA which I wrote to make the developer-side of PPA mostly a single-command deal.03:06
Hobbseejkakar: also, the buildds build for multiple releases - so depending on the lsb-release on the system wouldn't be  ahelp03:06
jkakarHobbsee: It uses a template file to generate the control file; I'm wondering if there's a bug there.03:06
Hobbseeahhh, so that's where you're nick is familiar from03:06
jkakarYeah, I guess.03:06
Hobbsee....why would you need it to write your control file?03:07
ajmitchdiffering build depends on various ubuntu releases03:07
jkakarHobbsee: We need to produce packages for dapper->hardy.03:07
jkakarSo yeah.03:08
Hobbseeajmitch: anything that does build-depends on the fly makes me shudder.03:08
jkakarAutoPPA detects files that end in .autoppa and processes them to generate the final output; so, a debian/control.autoppa will generate debian/control.03:08
Hobbseejkakar: right, yes, different build-depends.  i see.03:08
ajmitchHobbsee: I know, I'm not a big fan either :)03:08
Hobbseeajmitch: it sounds *awfully* like checkinstall, by another name.03:08
ajmitchit's not, thankfully03:09
jkakarI wish it wasn't necessary.03:09
ajmitchsince it's only selecting from a predefined set, not generating them magically03:09
ajmitch(afaik)03:09
Hobbseeoh godo03:09
ajmitchI hope that's the case, I can't remember the details :)03:09
fabbionemorning guys03:09
ajmitchhi fabbione 03:09
fabbionehow is the upgrade coming along?03:10
Hobbseehiya fabbione 03:10
Hobbseefabbione: we're mere people, not LP deities.03:10
fabbioneHobbsee: i didn't expect an answer from mere mortals.. i talk to Gods only03:11
jkakarLOL03:11
Hobbseehahha03:11
Hobbseeexcuse us for responding, then :P03:11
fabbioneHobbsee: you did ask for it :P03:11
Hobbseehehe03:12
jkakarHobbsee, ajmitch: It's not magical.  It's very explicit.  Lines in the .autoppa file that start with AUTOPPA_INCLUDE(<release,[...]>): are conditionally included, depending on the release AutoPPA is building for.03:12
* Hobbsee dumps a containers-worth of spiders down fabbione's back03:12
ajmitchjkakar: that's what I thought, from when you were working on it for storm03:13
jkakarajmitch: Yep.03:13
Hobbseejkakar: oh right, so it picks the build deps based on what is in each release, and waht's in that file.03:13
* fabbione eats the spiders as they come out of the container03:14
jkakarHobbsee: Right.  You specify the build deps you want for each release and put them in that file.  Then AutoPPA generates the right output as it iterates through releases to build.03:14
Hobbseeah, okay.  that doesnt sound quite so fragile.03:14
ajmitchtold you it wasn't as bad as checkinstall :)03:14
Hobbseethat evne sounds snae :P03:14
Hobbseeajmitch: i was thinking where you put the general build-deps in, and then it guessed which was in the release, or something03:15
Hobbseeajmitch: i mean, that's not quite as bad as checkinstall either - but still highly fragile.03:15
ajmitchor guess build dependencies by analysing debian/rules or configure.*03:15
Hobbseeor that03:16
Hobbseesheesh, you trying to send me away by saying all this crack or something?  :P03:16
jkakarHobbsee: I'm pretty happy with AutoPPA from a user perspective.  I basically generate uploads for 5 Ubuntu releases in 2 minutes now and it mostly works.  Obviously something bad has happened here which I will work out, but other than that it's a great improvement over trying to do all that stuff by hand.03:16
* Hobbsee nods03:16
jkakarHobbsee: If you decide to try it out and have questions feel free to ping.03:16
Hobbseejkakar: i'd be interested in seeing an .autoppa file, i fyou have one handy03:17
jkakarHobbsee: Here's the debian/control.autoppa for Storm: http://rafb.net/p/CsJNjc69.html03:18
jkakarHobbsee: With the following snippet in my ~/.autoppa.conf: http://rafb.net/p/eEP3NS34.html03:19
jkakarThe 'ppa = jkakar-ppa' is a reference to a PPA configured in ~/.dput.cf03:20
jkakarThere's one more magical symbol that can be used (anywhere, not just .autoppa files) which is the AUTOPPA_VERSION(<version>) symbol.  It replaces <version>with whatever the current build version is.03:21
jkakarOh. Phew.  Yay.03:23
jkakarI forgot to add "hardy" to the AUTOPPA_INCLUDE() symbols. :)03:24
Hobbseehehe03:26

LaserJockthings seem to easily get lost/overlooked18:44
blueyedLaserJock: ok, thanks for the hint. This particular bug is "only" two days around with the patch. But the OOo top crasher is already there for ~1 month.18:44
LaserJockblueyed: as long as you write with a positive (i.e. Can somebody please have a look at this bug? not You guys suck, wtf?)18:45
LaserJockI think the devs generally appreciate problems being broght up up18:46
blueyedLaserJock: sure.. :) Therefor I won't write it now..18:46
blueyedThe main reason why I'm ranting about this here in #launchpad is, that the whole SRU workflow needs to get improved IMHO.18:46
LaserJockblueyed: how so?18:47
blueyede.g. that nominations don't get lost. There might be a view with pending nominations for example.18:48
LaserJockdoes it matter much?18:49
LaserJockI'm not sure how that exactly is a problem. the nomination should get done in a reasonable time for sure18:49
LaserJockbut I don't see how it would be a real workflow problem18:50
blueyedLaserJock: that's not my experience. IMHO I should not have to poke #ubuntu-devel, pitti or ubuntu-devel ML.18:50
LaserJockwell sure18:51
LaserJockit takes an Ubuntu Driver to accept the nomination18:51
=== salgado is now known as salgado-brb
LaserJockand there aren't that many Ubuntu Drivers18:51
LaserJockthat's why perhaps an email might be helpful18:53
LaserJockalthough I see where having the nomination done *before* the Ubuntu SRU team has a look at it would be helpful18:53
blueyedSure, but my whole point is that there should be a view for it in LP / it should appear on the radars of ubuntu-sru, even if it's "Fix released" for hardy.18:54
blueyedLaserJock: I've done the nomination right away. But ubuntu-sru won't see it anymore, because it's fix released.18:55
LaserJockwell, I'm not sure how they do it18:55
LaserJockbut I suppose so yeah18:55
LaserJockbut in general I've always been in contact with Ubuntu SRU anyway to discuss the SRU18:55
blueyedpitti just approved the nomination, so all is well regarding this - for the moment.. ;)18:58
LaserJockwell, so your basic complaint is that it takes human interaction to get the SRU nominated?18:59
pochuLaserJock: the problem is that until a driver creates the gutsy/feisty... bug task, the bug won't be shown in the ubuntu-sru bug list, so they don't check/approve it (providing the main task is already closed)19:02
LaserJockpochu: well, but that seems sane19:02
LaserJockas an escalation19:02
LaserJockbut if it's hard to get a bug nomination accepted then that would be a workflow problem19:03
pochubut the problem is that it gets lost unless you poke a driver...19:03
LaserJockright, but it's not that there actually a nomination process that is the problem19:04
=== salgado-brb is now known as salgado
LaserJockbut that it's difficult to get the nominations accepted if there is not queue to look at or something19:05
pochuLaserJock: right19:07
LaserJockok, so I asked in -devel (if you didn't see it) and there is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+nominations19:08
LaserJockso there is a queue19:08

jkakarAny PPA hackers around?19:56
jkakarI can't install a package that appears to be in my archive.  apt-get reports it as being missing or obsoleted.19:57
blueyedLaserJock: yes, that's the view I've asked about. cjwatson has added links to wiki.ubuntu.com/SRU - hopefully this will improve the SRU workflow19:57
pochujkakar: have you updated the cache? apt-get update19:57
blueyedjkakar: have you tried "apt-cache madison <package>"?19:57
jkakarpochu: Yep.19:58
blueyedor "apt-cache policy <package>"?19:58
jkakarblueyed: What does 'madison' do?  I've tried 'apt-cache search <package>'.19:58
jkakarblueyed: 'apt-cache madison <package>' yield nothing useful.19:58
blueyedbut apt-cache search displays your package?19:59
blueyedHave you added your ppa to your sources.list?19:59
jkakarLooks like I have the correct deb lines in my sources.list, too.20:00
jkakarblueyed: apt-cache doesn't display the package, no.  But I see the .deb file sitting in my PPA archive.20:00
blueyedjkakar: what's the package?20:01
blueyedhttps://edge.launchpad.net/~jkakar/+archive - right?20:01
jkakarblueyed: autoppa from https://edge.launchpad.net/~autoppa/+archive.20:01
blueyedjkakar: after adding it to my sources.list it does not appear there, too.20:04
blueyedneither with "apt-cache search" nor "apt-cache madison/policy"20:04
jkakarblueyed: Cool.  Thanks for checking.20:04
blueyedwait..20:05
jkakarblueyed: And it's weird that the package is here: http://ppa.launchpad.net/autoppa/ubuntu/pool/universe/a/autoppa/20:05
blueyedI've added the "hardy" line, but it's released for gutsy..20:05
jkakarI'm testing on a gutsy machine.  I haven't produced hardy builds yet.20:05
jkakarHmm.20:05
blueyedjkakar: use "deb  http://ppa.launchpad.net/jkakar/ubuntu gutsy main", then it should work.20:06
jkakarI wonder if that's related.20:06
jkakarblueyed: well, s/jkakar/autoppa/ in that URL, but yes, that's what I'm using and it doesn't work.20:06
blueyedyes, it is.. :)20:06
jkakarWell, why do you think that?  I'm not running hardy nor using a hardy URL.20:06
* jkakar files a bug20:07
blueyedjkakar: sorry, I've been using jkakar from the beginning, but now have "deb  http://ppa.launchpad.net/autoppa/ubuntu gutsy main" and it shows up.20:07
blueyedjkakar: "apt-cache policy autoppa" outputs nothing?20:08
jkakarblueyed: Huh, interesting.20:08
jkakarblueyed: I've been using universe not main.20:09
jkakarfrom the control file: Section: universe/devel20:09
jkakarThe weird thing is that I see the same set of packages in both the main and universe parts of the archive.20:09
* jkakar tries main20:09
jkakarblueyed: Thanks, that was it.  s/universe/main/ on that URL in my sources.list and it shows up.20:10
* jkakar files the *right* bug20:10
blueyedjkakar: ok :)20:11

jkakarI guess my report is a dupe of #157561.20:23
jkakarIt seems strangely magical that packages are being auto-moved to main.20:23
kikojkakar, it's a feature, not a bug.20:24
kikocomponents are irrelevant for PPAs.20:24

ubotuNew bug: #164571 in soyuz "Packages are not published to the right section" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/16457120:26
jkakarkiko: Fair enough.  Seems like weird behaviour, but whatever.20:26
kikojkakar, the alternative causes problems that are very hard to detect and debug, which raises the barrier to new users. I wished there was a way to make this clearer20:28
jkakarkiko: It would be nice if the universe URL worked as well.  ie: publish to whatever the package specifies AND main.20:28
jkakarkiko: Though, that's pretty sucky too.  Having one way to get at things is a Good Thing(tm).20:28
kikothat would be weird. :)20:28
jkakarkiko: It would be nice if packages were not published to the wrong section in the archive.  That would make the "I see it in the universe section of the archive, why can't I install it?" line of thought less plausible. :)21:15
jkakarThough I know that will break my apt-mirror script, and likely others, too.21:16
denndaHi. I want to delete a branch that has been assigned to a blueprint (until 2 minutes ago) but I can't21:19
denndaThe blueprint doesn't exist anymore, but the branch still claims it is assigned to it and therefore (i think) I cannot delete it21:20
denndaAny ideas?21:20
