| ffm | Hey, I tried bzr push to a lp: and got: | 01:55 |
|---|---|---|
| ffm | bzr: ERROR: Transport operation not possible: http does not support mkdir() | 01:55 |
| Hobbsee | [10:44] <andrea-bs> 00:38:17> ScottWegner: you have to run bzr launchpad-login | 01:56 |
| Hobbsee | ffm: ^ | 01:56 |
| Hobbsee | [10:44] <ScottWegner> 00:41:29> hmmm, it looks like I don't even have launchpad-login command on this laptop-- does anybody know what packages it's in, offhand? | 01:56 |
| Hobbsee | [10:44] <andrea-bs> 00:41:56> ScottWegner: which version of bzr do you have? | 01:56 |
| Hobbsee | [10:44] <ScottWegner> 00:42:22> 1.3.1-1ubuntu0.1, from the repos | 01:56 |
| Hobbsee | [10:44] <andrea-bs> 00:42:46> oh, it's quite old; you have to use bzr+ssh | 01:57 |
| ffm | Hobbsee: No, I have it. | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | [10:44] <andrea-bs> 00:43:38> ScottWegner: bzr push bzr+ssh://username@bazaar.launchpad.net/~team/project/branch | 01:57 |
| ffm | Hobbsee: howevre, I get bzr: ERROR: Target directory lp:~ffm/pyroom/proper-theme-paths already exists, but does not have a valid .bzr directory. Supply --use-existing-dir to push there anyway. | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | (was asked ~10 hours ago) | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | strange. i presume you want to redo the bzr directory there, or something. i don't know. | 01:58 |
| ffm | Hobbsee: this is an init push;. | 01:58 |
| Hobbsee | poolie: can you help? | 01:58 |
| mwhudson | ffm: that's pretty odd | 01:59 |
| poolie | Hobbsee: hi | 02:01 |
| mwhudson | ffm: did you manage to push your branch ? | 02:02 |
| poolie | ffm, if you don't have launchpad-login using ssh is a direct substitute | 02:02 |
| ffm | mwhudson: I _think_ so. | 02:02 |
| mwhudson | it looks ok to me | 02:02 |
| poolie | does it work if you do use --use-existing-dir? | 02:02 |
| ffm | poolie: yeah | 02:02 |
| poolie | that's kind of odd | 02:03 |
| poolie | this can occur if you interrupt bzr in the middle of an initial push | 02:03 |
| poolie | so it's made the directory but can't really see it's a bzr directory | 02:03 |
| mib | hi. | 03:08 |
| mib | can someone update the repository for R package to 2.7.1 which is the latest one? | 03:09 |
| mib | thanks | 03:09 |
| Hobbsee | ? | 03:11 |
| mib | yea | 03:12 |
| mib | hobbsee | 03:12 |
| * Hobbsee suggests fail on multiple levele.s | 03:12 | |
| Hobbsee | er, levels | 03:12 |
| * Hobbsee advocates reading the topic? | 03:12 | |
| mib | ?? | 03:12 |
| Hobbsee | which repository? | 03:12 |
| mib | R | 03:13 |
| mib | rbase | 03:13 |
| RAOF | That's a software package, not a repository. Also, this doesn't seem very relevant to launchpad. | 03:14 |
| Hobbsee | and whatever it is, it's not in ubuntu either. | 03:15 |
| Peng | He's referring to http://www.r-project.org/ | 03:17 |
| RAOF | mib: Aaah. I see. R version 2.7.1 is available in the current development release of Ubuntu (Intrepid). | 03:17 |
| RAOF | So, since this is an Ubuntu issue, it's off-topic for #launchpad. But what you probably want to do is to request that this package gets backported. | 03:18 |
| Hobbsee | either way a) this is the wrong place, b) it's already there, and c) a package is not a repository, nor vice versa. | 03:18 |
| Hobbsee | and d) if the topic doesn't mention something related to ubuntu, apart from where the logs are, it's *probably* not where you're looking for. | 03:19 |
| RAOF | mib: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports#How%20to%20request%20new%20packages is what you're after. | 03:20 |
| poolie | hello Hobbsee btw | 03:24 |
| mib | RAOF,Hobb: do you mean 2.7.1 is available in Hardy but not in 6.06? | 03:24 |
| Hobbsee | hey poolie! | 03:25 |
| mib | in this case, i need to request the package to be installed in the specific release of ubuntu? | 03:25 |
| Peng | Is 6.06 even maintained anymore? | 03:25 |
| Hobbsee | mib: no. | 03:25 |
| Hobbsee | Peng: yes. | 03:25 |
| RAOF | mib: No. I mean 2.7.1 is available in Intrepid but not 8.04 (Hardy) or 6.06 (Dapper) | 03:25 |
| * Peng forgets how the LTS thing works. | 03:25 | |
| Hobbsee | [12:17] <RAOF> mib: Aaah. I see. R version 2.7.1 is available in the current development release of Ubuntu (Intrepid). | 03:25 |
| Peng | Really long-term, then? | 03:25 |
| Hobbsee | nowhere does that mention it being available in hardy. | 03:25 |
| mib | oh. | 03:25 |
| Hobbsee | Peng: yeah - 3 years on desktop, 5 on server. | 03:25 |
| mib | btw, what is intrepid | 03:26 |
| mib | kinda noob in this thing | 03:26 |
| mib | sorry | 03:26 |
| Peng | mib: The next release of Ubuntu. | 03:26 |
| Peng | (It's in development.) | 03:26 |
| * Hobbsee suggests reading the part that she *just* quoted again. | 03:26 | |
| mib | ohh | 03:26 |
| RAOF | The backport advice stands, however. | 03:28 |
| Peng | Dapper has version 2.2.1.. They probably won't backport it, right? | 03:29 |
| mib | dapper has 2.5.1 | 03:30 |
| Hobbsee | Peng: they can stick it in the unofficial backports, if it builds and doesn't require much other stuff to also be backported | 03:30 |
| Peng | Oh. | 03:31 |
| mib | but certain packages only supported by 2.7.1 | 03:31 |
| Hobbsee | r-base | 2.2.1-2 | dapper/universe | source, all | 03:31 |
| RAOF | Right. And this is where you get to choose between "stable" and "new". | 03:31 |
| * Hobbsee has no idea how mib qualifies his statement. | 03:31 | |
| mib | well, i want to use this bioconductor package | 03:32 |
| RAOF | It's not 2.5.1 in backports? | 03:32 |
| mib | and in order to use this package, they onl work with 2.7.1 of R | 03:32 |
| Hobbsee | RAOF: i thought rmadison showed backports | 03:32 |
| Hobbsee | mib: no, the one about dapper having 2.5.1 | 03:32 |
| RAOF | mib: If youv'e got 2.5.1 you may be using Gutsy (7.10). | 03:33 |
| mib | oops.. | 03:33 |
| mib | my mistakes. | 03:33 |
| mib | im using gutsy | 03:33 |
| mib | so *blur* | 03:33 |
| mib | http://www.bioconductor.org/News/2008-05-01-Release | 03:34 |
| mib | sorry guys | 03:34 |
| mib | yeah..i tried on another pc of mine using hardy | 03:35 |
| RAOF | And that will have 2.6.2. | 03:35 |
| RAOF | We know. | 03:35 |
| mib | okie | 03:35 |
| RAOF | If you would like to have 2.7.1 available in an unsupported repository, follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports#How%20to%20request%20new%20packages is what you're after. | 03:36 |
| RAOF | Failing that, I suggest #ubuntu is a more appropriate support channel. | 03:36 |
| mib | yeah. | 03:36 |
| RAOF | Or launchpad.net/answers | 03:36 |
| mib | i have requested just a min ago | 03:36 |
| mib | thanks | 03:42 |
| Peng | jml: So...bzr+http branches should start working again soon? | 06:45 |
| jml | Peng: I hope so. | 06:46 |
| Peng | jml: But nosmart+http will be used, right? | 06:48 |
| jml | Peng: no, we're turning that off. | 06:49 |
| Peng | So it'll really use bzr+http? | 06:49 |
| * Peng gets confused. | 06:49 | |
| jml | Peng: it'll use http and let the server figure it out | 06:49 |
| Peng | Yay. :) | 06:49 |
| jml | Peng: but! the underlying bug that caused us to switch to using nosmart+ in the first place still hasn't been fixed. | 06:50 |
| Peng | What will happen then? | 06:50 |
| * jml takes a step back. | 06:52 | |
| jml | Peng: when (if) that cherrypick lands, bzr+http branches won't mirror. | 06:53 |
| jml | Peng: however, I hope that this will be fixed at the next release. | 06:53 |
| jml | which is about a week away. | 06:54 |
| Peng | Okay. | 06:54 |
| jml | Peng: basically, switching to nosmart+ exposed another, more severe bug in bzr and so we're switching back. | 06:56 |
| Peng | nice | 06:58 |
| mwhudson | bzr branch nosmart+<http url that redirects> explodes | 07:00 |
| Peng | Awesome. Shouldn't nosmart+ be simple enough that that's impossible? | 07:19 |
| mwhudson | it looks a bit like bzr's handling of redirects is just clever enough to be stupid | 07:19 |
| mwhudson | spiv: did you see https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-bazaar/+bug/245964 yet? | 07:19 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 245964 in launchpad-bazaar "Using nosmart+ in puller interacts badly with branch references" [Critical,In progress] | 07:19 |
| spiv | mwhudson: yeah | 07:20 |
| spiv | Ooh, my left mouse button is starting to misbehave. | 07:20 |
| * mwhudson changes the summary of that bug | 07:20 | |
| spiv | I saw abentley chatting with you about it on #bzr too, I think. | 07:21 |
| Peng | spiv: What type of mouse? | 07:21 |
| spiv | Peng: trackpad in laptop. | 07:21 |
| Peng | Oh. | 07:21 |
| spiv | :) | 07:21 |
| Peng | How easy will it be to replace? | 07:21 |
| mwhudson | spiv: ah good | 07:22 |
| mwhudson | spiv: it seems the code in do_catching_redirections in bzrdir.py to see if the end of the path bzr is being redirected to is the same as the end of the path bzr asked for is a bit screwy | 07:22 |
| spiv | Peng: probably not very. The laptop isn't exactly new, anyway. | 07:22 |
| Peng | That's good. | 07:23 |
| spiv | mwhudson: sounds likely. You should make that observation in the bug comments :) | 07:23 |
| mwhudson | yeah | 07:23 |
| Hobbsee | how do i unsubscribe someone from a bug now? | 07:50 |
| Hobbsee | is it possible? | 07:51 |
| Hobbsee | right, i'm told i have to hit "subscribe yourself" to unsubscribe a team you belong to. okay then... | 07:53 |
| persia | It's decidedly nonintuitive | 07:53 |
| Hobbsee | moreso than usual, too | 07:54 |
| Hobbsee | ah well | 07:54 |
| spiv | Hobbsee: or you can go to Subscribe "Someone else", then there's a "Subscribe/Unsubscribe" link (for yourself/your team) in the portlet on that page. | 07:55 |
| Hobbsee | spiv: tried that. there isn't, anymore. | 07:55 |
| Hobbsee | spiv: (are you using edge)? | 07:55 |
| spiv | Hobbsee: Hmm, I'm looking right at it | 07:55 |
| spiv | yes | 07:55 |
| Hobbsee | spiv: want a screenshot of what i get? | 07:56 |
| spiv | Maybe I'm special because I'm a ~launchpad-dev person, or something. | 07:56 |
| Hobbsee | probably | 07:56 |
| ion_ | Any comments about https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/malone/+spec/base-36-bug-ids? | 07:57 |
| Hobbsee | spiv: http://hobbsee.com/tmp/launchpad.png is all i get on that screen | 07:58 |
| spiv | Hobbsee: um, I see a "Subscribe/Unsubscribe" link in tha screenshot | 08:02 |
| Hobbsee | spiv: oh, so do you have to go through two menu options to get to the unsubscribe section now? if you start via subscribing someone else? | 08:03 |
| spiv | Hobbsee: I have no idea what the intended UI design is, I just happened to notice that link. :) | 08:04 |
| Hobbsee | spiv: that link apperas to take you to the standard "subscribe yourself" screen. | 08:04 |
| spiv | Hobbsee: it's probably time to ignore my random misguided observations and file a bug :) | 08:08 |
| Hobbsee | spiv: heh. thanks for your help :) | 08:09 |
| Hobbsee | spiv: i think they are aware it's all different, and difficult to understand. | 08:09 |
| Hobbsee | it just means more people coming in here asking how do to do something they could do with no problems a month ago | 08:09 |
| Peng | mwhudson: Bug 245964's title is messed up now -- "interacts redirects". | 08:10 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 245964 in launchpad-bazaar "Using nosmart+ in puller interacts redirects" [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/245964 | 08:10 |

| mwhudson | Peng: oops | 08:10 |
| mwhudson | Peng: it's "nosmart+http interacts badly with http redirects" now | 08:12 |

| Hobbsee | sivang: with an h! | 13:10 |
| Tirion | Peng, how can I create project with four or five developers? May be it must be a team? But how can I connect team with project? | 13:11 |
| Hobbsee | sivang: doing OK - trying to find out who's done this gorgeous wallpaper on one of the intrepid wiki pages | 13:11 |
| Peng | Tirion: I have no idea, but it should be obvious enough. Create your project, create your team, and assign the team as the owner of the project or something. | 13:11 |
| sivang | i wonder if someone could tell me if launchpad qa vacancy is still relevant (the ad is still online) as i've sent my application 2 days ago and want to know if i should expect a response or so. | 13:12 |

| newz2000 | hi, lemon and I are trying to figure out how to colloborate on code in launchpad | 22:26 |
| newz2000 | he created a branch from my code and now wants to publish changes | 22:26 |
| Peng | He could push to his own branch and you could merge it. | 22:26 |
| lemon | well, I've never user bazaar before | 22:27 |
| Peng | Or you could create a team for yourselves and create a shared branch. | 22:27 |
| newz2000 | it is a shared branch under ubuntu-website | 22:27 |
| newz2000 | I think | 22:27 |
| newz2000 | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~newz/ubuntu-website/start-page | 22:27 |
| lemon | I did what under svn is a checkout :-) | 22:27 |
| Peng | Unless ~newz is a team, not so much. | 22:27 |
| newz2000 | ah, bummer | 22:27 |
| * newz2000 is learning too | 22:27 | |
| lemon | so, I got a copy on my local computer and modified it there... | 22:28 |
| newz2000 | can I make it a shared branch for him to merge into? | 22:28 |
| wgrant | newz2000: YOu could transfer the branch ownership to a team. | 22:28 |
| wgrant | Note that that will change the URL. | 22:28 |
| newz2000 | wgrant: will that be the best in the long run? | 22:29 |
| wgrant | newz2000: Unless you want to manually merge every change, yes. | 22:29 |
| newz2000 | (more people will be working on this) | 22:29 |
| wgrant | This is good. | 22:30 |
| wgrant | Has somebody fixed the focus yet? | 22:30 |
| newz2000 | not sure what the focus is | 22:30 |
| lemon | Must go to get something to dinner. Will leave this open and try to read what you decide later. | 22:31 |
| wgrant | The start page's search box steals (or stole, until I changed it because it was so annoying) focus. | 22:31 |
| newz2000 | ok, I'll let you know lemon, thanks | 22:31 |
| newz2000 | wgrant: yes, actually, lemon has done that | 22:31 |
| wgrant | Wonderful. | 22:31 |
| newz2000 | well, fixed it so it happens instantly rather than delayed after 2-3 seconds | 22:31 |
| wgrant | That is my largest gripe with a fresh 8.04.1 installation yesterday. | 22:32 |
| wgrant | Arrrgh. | 22:32 |
| wgrant | We have a perfectly good search box in Firefox already! | 22:32 |
| lemon | focus stealing is always very irritating | 22:32 |
| newz2000 | there are other forces at work | 22:32 |
| wgrant | If we need a special searchbox on our start page, it should be in Firefox instead. | 22:32 |
| newz2000 | so it's "less annoying" now | 22:32 |
| newz2000 | I think for now I'd like to keep ownership since I don't know what team should own it. | 22:34 |
| newz2000 | So lemon should create his own branch and publish it there, then I'll merge his copy to mine? | 22:34 |
| wgrant | OK, so lemon will have to push to his own branch. | 22:34 |
| wgrant | Right. | 22:34 |
| wgrant | He'll push to ~hisusername/ubuntu-website/something | 22:34 |
| newz2000 | ok, got it | 22:34 |
| wgrant | And you can `bzr merge lp:~hisusername/ubuntu-website/something`, then commit. | 22:34 |
| newz2000 | so lemon, when you're back, do bzr push lp:~lemon/ubuntu-website/start-page and then ping me (replace ~lemon with ~your-username) | 22:36 |
| newz2000 | thanks for the help wgrant | 22:36 |
| wgrant | np | 22:36 |
| lemon | hi again newz2000 | 22:54 |
| newz2000 | hey lemon | 22:54 |
| lemon | can't do it right now as I'm not on the computer where I did the changes | 22:54 |
| lemon | but I take note and will do it tomorrow morning | 22:54 |
| newz2000 | ok. I'm going to forward details to the mailing list too since others will be working on this. Thanks a bunch for your help! | 22:55 |
