eddyMulHi. I'm (very) new to Launchpad PPA. I assume it takes some time for binary packages to "show up/get published" after I got a report of a successful build. What is the average wait time?05:40
FujitsueddyMul: What do you mean by a report of a successful build?05:41
RAOFeddyMul: It varies wildly.  From the time that you get the "launchpad has accepted foo", there's an every-15-minute publish run, then they get added to a build queue (of uncertain length).05:42
eddyMulFujitsu, RAOF: https://launchpad.net/~eddymul/+archive/+builds?build_text=&build_state=built05:42
FujitsuAh.05:42
eddyMulFujitsu, RAOF: nvm. the binary package just showed up. I guess launchpad is pretty quick05:42
eddyMul:)05:43
FujitsuIt would have been published at xx:40, where xx is the current hour in your favourite timezone.05:43
FujitsuThey should be published at :00, :20, :40.05:43
eddyMulFujitsu: I see. Since this is my first time submitting a package to PPA, I want to make sure I "wait accordingly"05:44

intellectronicadoko: thanks (I'm asking because I think the bug that caused your OOPS is part of the work on a new feature which will allow you to attach a file at the same time as submitting a new bug).09:08

AlohaFujitsu, ok09:39
Alohawhat do teams have a blueprints page then?09:39

hexmodefor example, to here: https://edge.launchpad.net/ihris-manage/+download23:06
kikohexmode, add it to a product release23:06
hexmodelooking23:06
kikohexmode, visit a series page (such as /trunk) and then navigate to the release23:07
LaserJockkiko: hola23:08
cprovLaserJock: sure23:09
LaserJockcprov: I was just ask a little about package overview pages23:10
LaserJockI just left a comment on bug #73116 with most of it23:11
ubotuLaunchpad bug 73116 in soyuz "Source package pages don't describe what the package is for" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/7311623:11
cprovLaserJock: ok, give me a URL23:11
LaserJockbut basically I think it'd really be helpful for developers and even users if the overview pages where a bit more descriptive about the package itself23:12
LaserJockthey are already doing good from a publishing perspective23:12
LaserJockbut they give basically no information about the package itself23:12
LaserJockI just wondered what thoughts you had about that23:13
cprovLaserJock: well, we can't do much since sources have no description in the debian metadata format23:14
cprovLaserJock: once we have binaries it gets better https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bum/2.1.10-123:15
LaserJockthat is true23:15
LaserJockbut I'm wondering if we can kinda move some of that information "uphill"23:15
LaserJockthere are a lot of packages that only produce a single binary, those would be trivial23:16
LaserJockfor multiple binaries it's definitely more vague to talk about a description23:16
cprovLaserJock: It's feasible, but it could be sorted in a proper way if we use the 'packaging' link to the corresponding project23:17
LaserJockit seems to me that the source overview page is "primary" target for people wanting info on the package23:17
LaserJockand so it should include a lot of the information23:18
LaserJockrather than having to click around23:18
LaserJockI still often have to more or less randomly click around to get some information23:18
LaserJockwell, I think "packaging" links are only proper if there's a corresponding project around23:19
cprovLaserJock: https://edge.launchpad.net/bum has the information what is "bum" ... even if we present the binaries description it will only describe what the packages are, not what "bum" is23:19
LaserJockwell, generally the short descriptions are even fairly ok, but the long descriptions for sure are good info23:20
cprovLaserJock: yes, it's only available if we have a corresponding product/project23:20
ScottKOf course that info may or may not relate to what either upstream or the Ubuntu package have to say about it.23:20
cprovright, but as I mentioned before, ubuntu/debian says nothing about the source, we have to wait for the binaries to show up23:21
LaserJockScottK: that's a good point, I've seen a lot of projects that have no info and are basically useless23:21
LaserJockcprov: right, but from our perspective there's not much difference. If I apt-cache showsrc <pkg> I get all the info23:22
LaserJockin some sense the source package page should inherit this stuff from the binaries23:23
LaserJockif that makes any sense23:23
cprovLaserJock: no, you don't get summary/description by using "apt-cache showsrc"23:23
LaserJocksorry, that's right23:24
LaserJockapt-cache show will23:24
crimsunright, because it makes no sense.  They're only appropriate for binary packages.23:24
cprovLaserJock: a sourcepackagerelease, basically stores what is shipped in the DSC23:24
LaserJockcprov: right, and I'm saying that it'd be nice if we got more than that23:24
cprovLaserJock: yes, I know we can present the binaries summary when they are available.23:25
kikocprov, LaserJock is saying "never mind that we store things as dsc and binaries. present stuff that is useful to the user."23:25
LaserJockbasically yeah23:26
LaserJockthe +source page is the entry point into that package and yet often has the least  amount of useful information23:26
LaserJockbecause a lot of the goodies reside in the binaries23:26
LaserJockand specific version pages23:27
hexmodekiko: tyvm for the release help23:28
