[05:35] twb: more the other way around [05:36] mostly proprietary with a few open bits [05:36] Oh. [05:36] and no, the source isn't available [05:37] Presumably the source of the Free parts must be available.

[08:01] morning mpt [08:02] I uploaded a .po file two weeks ago and its status is "needs review". I don't understand... who will review it? Can't I just upload my .po files so as they could be translated? [08:03] jmehdi: when a project starts to use translations for the first time, the administrators need to review the po file; carlos and his team can help [08:03] the LP admins? not the project's admin? why? [08:06] jmehdi: hi [08:06] jmehdi: you have that explained at https://help.launchpad.net/TranslationsImportPolicy [08:07] jmehdi: btw, which product are we talking about? [08:07] https://translations.launchpad.net/webstrict [08:14] jmehdi: unfortunately, I had to reject your request, I sent you an email with the explanation to follow our standard procedure [08:14] jmehdi: however, I'm happy to follow up it here [08:15] carlos: hmm, that page uses "product". Isn't that now "project"? [08:15] or am I reversing it? [08:15] jmehdi: basically, you are not using English strings as msgids in your application, and thus, is impossible to use Launchpad right now for that. Translators will not know how to translate the IDs because is not English [08:16] LaserJock: I'm sorry, It's a problem in my side, we used to name it products and I use the wrong term from time to time [08:16] ok, actually I was just wondering if my po file was right ;) I'm reading the gettext help... [08:16] jmehdi: did you generate the .po file yourself? [08:17] LaserJock, anywhere you see "product" is wrong [08:17] isn't your application using gettext to translate it? [08:17] yes, from the .properties file [08:17] jmehdi: are those java .properties ? [08:17] yes [08:17] mpt: well, it's a few places on that TranslationsImportPolicy page, shall I change it? [08:18] jmehdi: as far as I know, gettext supports java properties [08:18] LaserJock, no worries, I'm doing it [08:18] mpt: fine [08:18] we need to have help.l.n karma :-0 [08:18] :-) rather [08:19] LaserJock: oh, so that's in that wiki page I pointed at? [08:19] I guess we forgot to update it O:-) [08:19] carlos: yep [08:20] carlos: what do you mean exactly? [08:21] jmehdi: gettext commands are able to extract java .properties strings to produce a .po file automatically [08:21] jmehdi: look at the xgettext man page [08:21] so you don't need to create it by hand [08:23] yes I did that but I think I used wrong arguments, I'm going to generate the po file again [08:23] ok [08:25] Actually I used msgcat, I'm going to use xgettext [08:26] ahhh, I understood :) [08:27] I need to update my java app so the msgid are equals to the english descriptions, and not just "fake" keys, right? [08:28] done [08:28] jmehdi: right [08:29] jmehdi: that's not really a requirement from Launchpad [08:29] but the right way to do it for translators, so they don't need to deal with different files while doing translations [08:30] jmehdi: hmm, however, I don't have experience with java .properties and gettext [08:30] jmehdi: so maybe gettext does that mapping automatically [08:30] given that I'm not sure whether those .properties files allow you to use an English string [08:30] instead of that ID [08:32] ok, thanks, I'm going to do some tests ;) [08:33] you are welcome [08:35] New bug: #213795 in launchpad "broken link to +editemail" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/213795 [08:38] hi, my branch appears to be locked, i tried to break-lock it, but it just seems to reset to locked again...anyone who can help me?

For now it would be only one series and about 3 milestones, but later I would like to migrate all older milestones to new series yet to be created [14:28] we never used series before, it's all just milestones [14:28] so there is one big "trunk" series with lots of milestones in it [14:50] New bug: #213956 in launchpad "[Feature Request] Templates for further information field" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/213956 === hexmode` is now known as hexmode === kiko-zzz is now known as kiko [15:40] New bug: #213982 in malone "Launchpad usability issue with relating bug to multiple packages" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/213982 [15:45] New bug: #213985 in launchpad "Subscribed bug not shown in list of subscribed/all bugs" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/213985 [15:59] <\sh> aye...I just created a team, activated ppa, uploaded a source package -> ftbfs because of missing sources ,-) [16:00] <\sh> but now we have "rebuild" for ppas...how nice is that...thx :) [16:36] New bug: #214010 in malone "winmail.dat e-mail attachments" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/214010 === thekorn_ is now known as thekorn [17:10] SteveA: ping [17:11] emgent: hi [17:11] heya [17:14] SteveA: lives!

[17:42] elmo, IIRC you wrote that bit... would you be able to answer for me ? === matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch === salgado is now known as salgado-lunch [17:43] beuno: it's a semi-automated cron job [17:44] Mez/bueno: if you set your preferred email to @ubuntu.com, your @ubuntu.com could disappear. I'd highly recommend you don't do that [17:44] elmo, I've had that for over a year now [17:44] right now, if your @ubuntu.com previously had a forwarding address, it'll stick to that address, but that's simply a bug [17:45] elmo, hehe. Fair enough [17:45] beuno: not pointing at @ubuntu.com you haven't [17:45] elmo, no? I recall changing it ages ago [17:46] beuno: *shrug* according to bzr you changed it within the last month [17:46] elmo, thanks for the info.

[18:52] Hi [18:52] ion_: have you looked for a bug or filed one? [18:53] laserjock: Just about to look for one, but if one doesn't exist, i thought i'd discuss it here first. [18:58] There doesn't seem to be a bug already reported. Here goes: while we're waiting for apt+zsync, would it be feasible to implement pdiffs in Soyuz for apt-get update in the meantime? The pdiff functionality has been implemented and tested in Debian. [19:11] Is it possible to have ppa build automagically from bzr code which is hosted on launchpad (without having to use manually dput)? [19:13] stani: nope [19:14] LaserJock: thanks [19:17] ion_: you might get more discussion out of a bug report [19:18] laserjock: Yeah. i'll report one. [19:58] Which distrorelease I have to put in the changelog when I upload to a PPA with dput if I want builds for dapper, feisty, gutsy, hardy? [20:01] you need a package for each of those [20:02] with the corresponding releases in the changelog [20:03] LaserJock, is that a feature or a bug -- reason I'm asking is because if you uploaded it to an old version in the main archive it would automatically be available for the new version, right? [20:03] LaserJock: Thanks: are all distros available from dapper on? [20:03] stani: yes [20:03] kiko: exactly [20:03] kiko: it seems to be a big issue for people [20:04] mostly upstreams [20:04] who don't want to bother with packaging really [20:04] for me I like to look at each release carefully anyway for change in deps, etc. [20:12] kiko: but I'd say having to have a different package for each release is the biggest complaint I've heard recently with PPA [20:14] LaserJock, one question is how would we allow people to republish into a new version. [20:15] new release? [20:17] kiko: debian policy allows a packager to specify more than one release in the changelog I believe [20:17] if you just used that to build the archive metadata it should work [20:17] LaserJock, yes. but how do you survive when a new version is released? [20:17] new version of what? [20:26] pochu: are you there? [20:26] kiko: PPAs just seem to be a bit different use case, where people often add packages across many, already released, releases [20:26] the distros are basically linear [20:27] stani: can you really use the same package for dapper-hardy? [20:27] stani: I would think differences in python packaging would cause problems [20:28] Laserjock: It is a pure python package, but maybe you are right. [20:29] Hmm... it even doesn't seem to work for Hardy: https://launchpad.net/~stani/+archive/+build/557589 [20:30] Do I have to do a "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -S -sa" or a "dpkg-buildpackage -S -sa"? [20:31] New bug: #214131 in launchpad "Support conditional GET on collections" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/214131 [20:31] stani: you might try rebuilding that package (there is a button in the UI for it) [20:31] stani: it didn't even start building but died trying to add your repo to it's sources.list [20:32] LaserJock: Why is that? [20:32] stani: debuild -S -sa works [20:32] stani: if it's your first package for Hardy it could be it hadn't actually built the hardy repo yet [20:32] I did with fakeroot. Is that wrong? [20:32] no [20:33] debuild = dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot [20:33] just shorter [20:33] It is indeed my first package. [20:33] ok thanks [20:33] ok, hit the retry button then, I think that might be it [20:33] I pushed the button. [20:35] can I build the other distroreleases source packages also on a hardy machine? [20:37] how do you mean? [20:37] the source packages? [20:38] I mean I want to build my phatch (photo batch processor) for different distro-releases. [20:38] I am working now on a hardy machine. [20:38] phatch is already in the universe repositories for hardy, but people want it on gutsy [20:38] well, you can use it to build the source packages, in general [20:39] but you would want to use a pbuilder or sbuild to do test .debs [20:40] Maybe I am naive but now I just change the distrorelease in the changelog and try to dput the foo_source.changes [20:41] before when I was on gutsy I succesfully built .deb packages [20:41] but now I upgraded to Hardy [20:42] Laserjock: Thanks, hardy succeeded https://launchpad.net/~stani/+archive/+builds?build_text=&build_state=all [20:42] stani: yeah, if it's just a source package you want then go for it [20:43] sometimes if there's big changes to build scripts it can be a tad difficult, but in general it should work [20:44] like if there was a policy change lintian might complain about the old package [20:44] hi guys, a classic RTFM case here - how do I get a distro added to lp?
