Kamping_Kaiserhi all. i just noticed when you leave a team your placed in a 'deactivated' status. is this for a technical reason? i pressed the 'leave team' button because i dont want to be bound to it anymroe after all :)08:27
mdkeKamping_Kaiser: that bothers me too. Let me know if you find a bug about it08:29
Kamping_Kaisermdke, ok. i'll let you know how it goes08:30
mdkeKamping_Kaiser: it's not so much the status that bothers me, but the fact that when a team is reorganised (e.g. becomes an umbrella team), all the deactivated members are listed at the bottom, like on https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-doc/+members08:30

mohbanahi12:02
mohbanacan i use mercurial at launchpad to host my project? 12:03
spivNo, just bzr.12:04
mohbanaany future plans for hg?12:04
spivNot at the moment.  Eventually we'd like to be able to import from hg automatically.12:05
spivIt's hard enough work integrating a single vcs :)12:05
mohbanajust out of interest why was bazaar choosen?12:05
spivCanonical sponsors the development of Bazaar because we think it's the best tool.12:06
spivSo basically the answer is "because we like it" :)12:07
mohbanaare there workarounds for saying using a vcs?12:08
mohbanawithout using bazaar at all12:08
spivYou mean workarounds for hosting code in another vcs on Launchpad?12:10
spivNone that I know of.12:10
spivYou can always upload tarballs to the file download part of your project, but that isn't really the same sort of thing.12:10
mohbanahow can i request features?12:15
mohbanai mean there must be people wanting a different vc12:15
spivFiling a bug report would be the best way.12:16

Stavroshello12:21
Stavroswhom would i talk to about launchpad's usability shortcomings?12:21
mptStavros, that would be me12:22
Stavroswell, i am trying to upload some project files (if I understand their reason correctly), which are releases of my code, but i can't find how, and there's no link on the "project files" page12:22
thumperyou need a release, and it isn't obvious12:23
Stavrosi was also trying to look at the code in my repo yesterday but kept going around in circles (code->trunk->code)12:23
Stavrosah12:23
Stavrosi would expect that going under "code" i would easily be able to see the repository code, but you have to go code-><branch>->browse code12:25
Stavrosand the "browse code" link is rather buried12:25
mptthe "Browse code" link will become much less buried in a couple of months12:25
Stavrosah, great12:25
Stavrosi just saw the "register a release" link as well12:26
Stavrosi don't think i would have found it if not by chance12:26
mptthumper, would it make sense to allow auto-registering a release in the process of uploading files?12:26
Stavrosdo you think it would be possible, when one registers a release, to have the bzr commit messages between two revisions shown for the changelog?12:27
Stavrossince that's more or less what one does12:27
mptI think thumper's gone to bed12:43
Stavrosah12:43
mptStavros, I suggest suggesting that in a bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad-bazaar12:43
Stavroswill do, thanks12:44

chongpeHello. Is it possible to use buildbot so that we have a buildslave hooked up to our launchpad bazaar main branch?14:04
chongpeI'm a newbie when it comes to both launchpad and buildbot. From what I have read, anything that wants to hook into a buildslave needs some sort of hook script. I'm not clear on how that would work with our project's bazaar repository which is at launchpad.net14:05

korpiosIf I do "bzr branch lp:foo lp:bar", will that require my bzr to pull everything locally and then push up again?  I was working on a bugfix for bzr, and after pulling trunk, branching it locally to work on the bug, and pushing the bugfix branch to launchpad, I was wondering if there was a faster way.  ^_^16:44

Ashfire908does launchpad support SOAP?20:46
statikAshfire908: launchpad has a couple of minimal xml-rpc interfaces, and work is going on right now on adding APIs all over launchpad21:00
statikAshfire908: the new APIs will not be SOAP, but they will be usable from any language, and we will provide a very nice python client library21:01
statikchongpe: you've already left, but google reads these logs, so I'll answer anyway. yes, you can connect buildbot to a launchpad branch21:04
statikwe provide both email notification and atom feeds of new revisions on a branch, and those can be connected to a buildbot master21:04

=== cprov is now known as cprov-afk
statikkorpios: I wish there was a faster way to do bzr branch lp:foo lp:bar without transferring all the data. I call this a feature request for "server side branching", and it's on my wishlist. we've discussed it a bit, but I don't think it has been scheduled yet21:07
Ashfire908statik: ok, you mean the python libary in the python-launchpad-bugs project on launchpad21:10
statikAshfire908: no, that uses screenscraping. We will be releasing a new library when we roll out the new API21:10
Ashfire908ok21:11
statikAshfire908: the one in python-launchpad-bugs was built by people who use launchpad because we didn't offer an API at that time21:11
statikAshfire908: if you have specific requests for the API, please do send them on to launchpad-users mailing list21:12
statikwhat are you planning to do with the API?21:12
Ashfire908there's a program that reports bugs and the package for ubuntu reports to the debian bug tracker, and it used SOAP, so i was going to see if i could make a fix for it or something21:13
Ashfire908when will the new API come out?21:14
korpiosstatik: ah, okies; is there a bug already filed?21:14
statikkorpios: I don't think so, you are welcome to file that as a feature request.21:15
statikkorpios: what size repository are you working with?21:15
korpiosstatik: it just came up in the past day when I was branching bzr's own repo to fix a bug21:16
statikAshfire908: soon, I think, next few months. I don't know the release date but I know people are working on it every day. Actually, the one API that we do already have for a long time is an xml-rpc filebug API21:16
* statik looks for the docs on filebug21:16
statikBjornT: do we have docs on the old xml-rpc filebug API anywhere other than pagetests?21:17
BjornTstatik: yes21:18
BjornThttps://help.launchpad.net/MaloneXMLRPC21:18
statikBjornT: thanks! my wiki searches on help.lp.n were not finding that, but I thought it was there.21:19
statikAshfire908: ^ you can use this right now to file bugs, and it is a lot simpler than SOAP21:19

daouQuestion about PPAs: is there an accepted way of uploading a package for multiple distros?22:44
daouAt first I tried making a package for feisty, using the following naming "app-version-X" where X is the deb package version. This worked.22:45
daouThen I tried making 3 different packages, naming them "app-version-distroX", but Launchpad is rejecting the changes (MD5 match), no matter how much I increase the package version22:47
daoudistro being either feisty, gutsy, or hardy22:48
LaserJockwhat you want is to use something like <app version>-0ubuntu~gutsy-ppaX22:57
=== salgado is now known as salgado-afk
daouOk thanks, I'll give it a shot. I did try "app-version-0gutsy1~ppaX" before, and that didn't work.22:58
LaserJockhmm22:58
LaserJockwell there's probably a different problem going on as well22:59
LaserJockthe Md5sum error is probably because you're trying to reupload the .orig.tar.gz file22:59
LaserJockhow are you building the source package?22:59
daousvn export of source, tar.gz the source, copy tar.gz to orig.tar.gz, add necessary debian/* files, debuild -S, dput23:01
LaserJockhmm23:02
daouits all done in a python script i hacked together, it creates the changelog 3 times for each distro and makes the source.changes, diff, dsc files etc23:02
LaserJocknot debuild -S -sa?23:02
LaserJockyou want debuild -S -sa for the first upload of a orig.tar.gz then thereafter just debuild -S23:03
daouthe signature should be fine, it has been working otherwise with -S23:03
daoubut i'll give it a shot23:04
LaserJockwell, you'd want to see the contents of the _source.changes file23:04
LaserJockand see if the .orig.tar.gz is listed in there23:04
daouthe .changes files do not mention .orig.tar.gz, also, debuild -S -sa doesn't make a .change file. Is this correct?23:09
daouwait, bug in my script :)23:09
daouok, the first now contains an MD5 sum for .orig.tar.gz, the one that used debuild -S -sa23:11
LaserJockyeah23:13
LaserJockthe -sa tells it to include the .orig.tar.gz when creating .changes23:13
daouok it worked now23:15
daouthanks, LaserJock23:15
