mdkegnomefreak: an Ubuntu mailing list?08:26
gnomefreakmdke: yes its ubuntu-effects team it is now -desktop team that handles compiz IIRC08:26
mdkegnomefreak: I don't see that list on lists.ubuntu.com08:27
mdkeah, you mean ubuntu-desktop-effects08:27
gnomefreakubuntu-desktop-effects is the full name of it 08:27

ignashi08:51
ignasdoes every launchpad user have his own shared repository or are they project based?09:02
jameshignas: there is no shared repo support on bazaar.launchpad.net at present09:03
ignasouch09:03
jameshignas: we are planning on making use of the "stacked branch" feature being developed for Bazaar though09:04
jameshwhich should give similar benefits09:04
ignasso i should tell other developers that publishing their branches will take 40 minutes then :/09:04
ignasit's makes explaining how branching for every feature or bug is good :/09:05
jameshin fact, it should be better since you can stack off a branch you have only read access to09:05
ignasi see09:05
jameshwhereas shared repos would force each developer to pay the 40 minute penalty once09:05
ignasso what are my options?09:07
ignasi just can't make them think "bzr is better"09:07
ignasif they have to wait 40 minutes for their first checkout, and then when they want to change something - they can't commit it direcly, so they make a branch, and after being done with a feature - they have to wait 40 minutes to publish it, so I could merge it to trunk...09:08
PengI always push to my own server, where I do have a shared repo, and let Launchpad mirror it.09:08
ignasi guess they will have to manage their own shared repository as well...09:10
thumperignas: stacking is coming soon(ish)09:10
thumper:-|09:10
ignasas most of the bzr features09:10
jameshignas: Peng's solution might be best in the short term09:11
ignasyes, i understand, i mean - as I am the person who is integrating things into the mainline and managing releases - bzr is an improvement, just that for other developers every bit of additional complexity (complexity that was not there with svn) makes them ask the question - why didn't we stay with svn09:13
thumperignas: I understand, and I hear ya09:16
thumperignas: you can trust me that we are working as fast as possible to make this happen quickly09:17
jameshignas: how do people usually provide changes to you for integration?09:18
jameshignas: if they have used patches in the past, you might want to tell them about "bzr send"09:19
jameshfor all the changes to Bazaar I've submitted in the last year I've not pushed the branches from my desktop/laptop09:20
jameshjust sent bundles to the mailing list09:20
tan_Is there a mailing list manager in launchpad? or something similar?09:21
jameshtan_: https://help.launchpad.net/Teams/MailingLists09:22
tan_jamesh: thanks :) from what I gather, this is for the team communication, or can it be used as a public mailing list for a project?09:24
* tan_ reads and find the answer ;-)09:25
jameshtan_: you can create a team to represent the members of the list09:28
jameshmaking it open membership if you want people to be able to join the list without permission09:28

alecwhI'm the owner of a project @ launchpad, and I currently have a branch registered that automatically imports an external SVN repository into the Bazaar code section. We are no longer using the SVN repository, and we want to remove the SVN import branch from our project. The import branch: https://code.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports/phpns/trunk, and the project: https://code.launchpad.net/phpns/. Who do I talk to about removing this? I'm unable to10:59
Pengalecwh: You got cut off after "I'm unable t".11:02
alecwh"Who do I talk to about removing this? I'm unable to."11:03
alecwhMeaning I don't have sufficient permissions to delete the branch11:03

Warddrhow long does it take for a mailinglist to be accepted? We realy need one12:36
jameshWarddr: it needs an admin to approve it.12:40
Hobbseejamesh: who's in charge of hte mailing lists now?12:41
jameshHobbsee: in charge of the code or in charge of administrating things?12:41
Hobbseejamesh: the latter12:41
jameshI'm not sure.  I'd guess launchpad admins12:44
jameshHobbsee: yep.  The mailing list approval forms require admin access.12:45
jameshnot sure which ones are doing list approval though12:45
Hobbseejamesh: right.  that may be why they aren't getting done, then.12:46
jameshor they aren't doing it over the weekend12:46
jameshWarddr: how long have you been waiting?12:46
Warddrjamesh, 2 days12:47
jameshWarddr: if it hasn't been processed within 24 hours, I'd try emailing the launchpad-users list12:47
Warddri'll do that, jamesh 12:48
Hobbseejamesh: do you know if a launchpad admin would be able to remove a package, which has been marked as invalid, from a bug?  i'm sick of reading mail from this bug.12:55
jameshyou mean remove a task?12:56
Hobbseeer, yes, probably12:56
* Hobbsee isn't fluent in all the launchpad terminology, at times.12:56
jameshit'd probably require DB access to delete it12:57
jameshyou can't point it at a more appropriate package?12:57
Hobbseeooh, i wonder.12:57
* Hobbsee wth?12:57
Hobbseejamesh: oh, now there's a good idea!  i can clear the task, which puts it as 'Ubuntu', which will make it go to the ubuntu bugs list, which it's probably already on, so will spam no one.12:58
jameshsolutions that don't need admin intervention are preferred :)13:02
Hobbseejamesh: indeed.  i just didn't think that could be done.13:04
Hobbseejamesh: er, is there any wya i can check what the contact address for the bug supervisor of ubuntu is?13:04

cprovkiko: pong13:50
kikocprov, romario was having an interesting problem yesterday. he copied a package to another PPA, but when downloading it via apt, apt would complain of "mismatched size" (IIRC). 13:52
kikocprov, have you heard of this happening before?13:52
kikoor have a clue why it mihgt?13:52
cprovkiko: archive indexes conflicting with the files, I guess, depends on whether or not he installed the package locally first.13:54
cprovkiko: obviously cause by a copy that should not be allowed (or to be precise, rebuilds in the same archive)13:55
cprovkiko: do you know the PPA url and package names involved, maybe I can still reproduce it.13:56

johcprov: Yes14:54
cprovjoh: if it is, something weird is happening, no builds for your sources.14:54
johcprov: Exactly...14:55
johcprov: So what could be wrong? How do I debug this?14:57
johcprov: There are no build records at all under "View build records" either.14:58
cprovjoh: I'm checking, builds were not created in upload time.15:00
johcprov: Ok, thanks15:00
cprovjoh: putz ... sorry, you are uploading to intrepid.15:00
