[00:00] I file bugs, I was the LP Liaison, I've help where I can and have gotten a worse product in return [00:00] dude, that's not fair [00:01] do you honestly think LP is worse, now than it was? if so how? [00:05] yeah, it is [00:05] the source package pages are worse [00:05] we used to get full lists of packages we've uploaded [00:07] we used to be able to sort search results better [00:07] My biggest problem is the bread crumb [00:08] LaserJock: ok, so those are regressions, but I think calling the product as a whole 'worse' is misleading and doesn't exactly encourage a productive conversation [00:09] LaserJock: I'd suggest tracking this and other things, some place, so you've got something clear and unequivocal to point to [00:10] LaserJock: like the wiki page I was talking about earlier. I realise it's in the bugs, but digging through the history of that isn't hugely fun. and if you do it on a separate page, you can rate things, according to _your_ (MOTUs) priorities [00:10] elmo: well, been there done that [00:10] I realize I'm not being all that constructive right now [00:10] LaserJock, who is the new LP liaison? [00:11] but I've been trying to be constructive for over a year now and it really hasn't gotten much done [00:11] cody-somerville: siretart [00:11] elmo: the problem isn't priorities [00:11] elmo: the problem is that it takes too long to get things done [00:12] which is not an easy thing to fix I know [00:12] LaserJock: err? [00:12] LaserJock: it takes too long to get things done because they're not being prioritized above the things that are getting done, surely? [00:12] exactly [00:12] that's why everybody is frustrated [00:12] ok, but then surely the problem _is_ priorities? [00:12] How many people are involved in developing launchpad? [00:12] elmo: not on our end [00:12] elmo: we've prioritized [00:13] LaserJock: gah, dude, stop making this a finger pointing thing [00:13] I wasn't saying it was your problem [00:13] I'm saying the problem is priorities -> why I think it's important your priorties are clearly/unequivocally recorded [00:13] elmo: I realize that, but since we can't control LP what can we do [00:13] LaserJock: lobby in a constructive way? [00:14] rinchen told you earlier, he and kiko are trying to get LP more dev focused for the next cycle [00:14] and it's true, I've been witness to such conversations myself [00:14] well [00:14] that's good [00:14] so, sure, it may not have worked in the past, and I'm sorry it didn't. but giving up now, and just venting isn't going to do much other than make you feel better in the short term [00:15] s/it/lobbying constructively/ [00:15] but as I said earlier, I'm afraid it's tool little too late [00:15] The bad part is that complaining doesn't help. It simply motivates the developers. [00:15] *too [00:15] heh [00:15] de motivates [00:15] LaserJock: eh, in what way? [00:16] elmo: because developers are giving up on Launchpad because of broken promises and constant RSN [00:16] has that meeting been yet? [00:16] as LP liaison I saw bugs deferred and deferred months on end [00:16] things often take 6months - 1year more to really land than what we're told [00:16] btw, for anyone who is wondering, we ran into a QA test failure which is holding up the release [00:17] we're working on it now [00:35] * wgrant reappears, at work. [00:37] Filing bugs doesn't help - they largely just sit around forever. All these nice, useful features are coming RSN. Some things have been deferred since 1.1.9. Things get deferred month upon month, then get deferred indefinitely. We can't see the specs, so they're implemented and break things in ridiculous ways. There seems to be a focus on breaking everybody's memory of the UI every 12 months, leaving it inconsistent ... [00:37] ... across releases, and fixing speed regressions by eliminating visibility of some information. [02:05] * Hobbsee wonders at the highlights [02:09] elmo: w.r.t. the soyuz admin thing, (and i doubt laserjock knows about this) it's probably a good thing that it hasn't been announced yet, as this is the first cycle where launchpad *hasn't* broken when attempting to accept packages. [02:10] so it's probably still not safe enough to fully rely on, in a mission critical sense. [02:10] and may only be, this ubuntu cycle. [02:10] moin Hobbsee :) [02:10] heya [02:11] elmo: not trying to point the finger there, just stating the facts about it's reliability. [02:11] fwiw, i don't see why people are changing things in pointless ways, which definetly count as regressions. who's idea, exactly, was it that the latest release shown on launchpad should be the latest one published, even if it's a backport? [02:13] were ubuntu people consulted (as they're the only ones with that section), as to whether this would actually be useful for them? === mthaddon changed the topic of #launchpad to: Launchpad is going down from 02:00 UTC until 03:00 UTC for a code update | https://launchpad.net/ | Next meeting, all welcome: Thu 17 July 2008, 1800UTC #launchpad-meeting | Help: https://help.launchpad.net | Questions and spam reports: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad | Channel logs: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com [03:03] elmo: At this point, from my perspective, words about distro development being a priority in the future don't have a lot of credibility. === sm_ is now known as sm === mthaddon changed the topic of #launchpad to: https://launchpad.net/ | Next meeting, all welcome: Thu 17 July 2008, 1800UTC #launchpad-meeting | Help: https://help.launchpad.net | Questions and spam reports: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad | Channel logs: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com [04:15] Rinchen, LP icon on the hierarchy in the main page doesn't look right [04:16] mpt, ^ [04:17] and congrats on the roll out :) [04:18] hey bueno, back at home? [04:19] beuno, maybe I should try and spell your name right :) [04:19] hey mthaddon! [04:19] didn't see you on friday [04:19] yeah, I'm back home, got here on sunday [04:20] you still in London? [04:20] no, was just there for the week too [04:21] good to meet you (if briefly) while I was there - seemed like you and mpt were working a lot - hope you got to enjoy it too [04:22] likewise, I would of liked to gone out to dinner or something, but yeah, we where a bit tight with the release :) [04:22] we'll probably bump into each other again [04:23] I'm sure :) === asac_ is now known as asac [04:46] It is prettier than it was on edge. I'll give it that. It's probably a better look. Functionally, a big step backwards as I've said before. [04:57] mpt: Reading your blog entry, I guess your closed to any rethinking of the new design because we'll just get used to it? [04:58] * ScottK gives up again. === barry-away is now known as barry [05:08] * Hobbsee notes that the janitor is still expiring questions that haven't had a final response from the LP devs. [05:11] 11 questions expired because launchpad developers never got back to their users. 1 question expired where the user never got back to the launchpad developers. [05:12] hmm, i think i'll bug kiko directly about an ownership change again. [05:14] Hobbsee: I didn't think Janitor was actually closing bugs [05:15] oh wait, questions [05:15] nvm :-) [05:16] LaserJock: yes, questions :) [05:16] * Hobbsee emailed the ML about it === barry is now known as barry-away [06:41] Where do I apply for a mailing list for my project? [06:43] * Hobbsee wishes there was a way of sorting things in a ppa. [06:44] jkakar: Mailing lists are for teams. [06:44] wgrant: Ah, right. Thanks. [06:45] Erm. [06:45] Okay, I see it. [06:45] Are the LP breadcrumb and favicon logos meant to have a white background? [06:45] Does someone need to be in the team to subscribe to the list? [06:46] jkakar: I believe so. [06:46] wgrant: Cool, thanks. [06:55] Something about the new notifications makes them look completely out of place. [06:56] Particularly the error one. [07:01] wgrant: Agreed. The 'This bug has duplicates' message is also formatted the same way notes are, which I find a bit surprising everytime I see it. [07:01] Judging from the discussion above I wonder if I'm in a minority of users that actually like the new UI. [07:02] There are some rough edges here and there, but I'm very much a fan of putting actions near context, which I think is improved in the new UI. [07:04] I suspect most people will get used to it eventually. [07:04] At least this UI isn't as blinding as the 1.0 UI was when it was new. [07:04] Yes, indeed. Change is always kind of jarring, especially when it's with something that many of us have finger habits built around. [07:04] Hehehe. [07:06] morning folks [07:23] What is "Malone" refered to here? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/CommonTasks Is that an old code name for launchpad? [07:24] Grantbow: it's the old name for the bug tracking part of Launchpad. [07:24] spiv: great, thanks. Perhaps a simple search and replace would be appropriate? [07:25] Yeah, probably. === abentley1 is now known as abentley [08:05] spiv: ok, thanks :-) I edited the wiki on two pages very carefully to reflect the name change from Malone to Launchpad. - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/CommonTasks and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Importance [08:25] hello [08:25] LP (edge) is assuming the old package when reporting new bugs to new packages. [08:26] is it a feature or bug? [08:30] ok [08:30] ńo answers [08:31] I've opened bug #249342 [08:31] Launchpad bug 249342 in malone "when reporting a new bug, LP assumes the package from previous bug report" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/249342 [10:31] gmb: Any news on the importing? [10:31] klette: I'm in a meeting atm. I'll get back to you shortly. [10:32] enjoy :-) [10:33] I love the new design guys, big thumbs up! [10:33] nice to hear :) [10:33] humm [10:34] kiko: can't the search be a bit higher? [10:34] and maybe an action to collapse the subscribed users? [10:34] its just to long on Ubuntu bugs [10:34] Only thing thats a bit annoying is that the eyes have to search a bit for the «List all open bugs» link [10:35] did you guys ever found who was trying to spam LP with so many fake users? [10:49] So I now don't have permissions to request a review of a merge request for my branch that I submitted in either production or on Edge. [10:49] This is decidedly inconvenient. [10:52] Anyone know of an extant bug for this, or should I file one myself? [10:55] I've come back from holiday and suddenly LP has a new interface! [10:55] it looks nice [10:59] you've done a good job [11:01] Aww, mirroring bzr+http still does't work. === qense is now known as qense|lunch === qense|lunch is now known as qense [12:55] kiko: is there any chance you could change the owner of ~kubuntu-members-kde4 to jr, please? === geser_ is now known as geser [12:59] or any other LP admin who feels generous [13:08] Hobbsee, sure. [13:08] Hobbsee, done [13:09] kiko: thankyou [13:09] yw! [13:11] kiko: i hit a launchpad bug when attempting to do it, so i presume anyone else that attempts to do this will to [13:11] er, too [13:12] Hobbsee, oh, what's the bug? [13:13] kiko: i hit change ownership, i type in who it goes to, and hit OK, then get hit with a "you don't have permission to access this page". === barry-away is now known as barry [13:13] Hobbsee, oh, so a permissions problem after submitting?

Someone is currently using my nickname, that is not a problem, I already talked to him when it happened before, I don't want to bother him for the moment as I usually have my nick... but what I find strange is that when I do /whois pep pep I see him as an identified user... how can he be identified with my nick? [13:24] kiko: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/38517 [13:24] please take a look [13:24] oops [13:24] wrong channel [13:25] pep`: /msg nickserv help ghost - then you probably want to hcange your password [13:26] no idea why it's showing as identified, though, as it's not cloaked [13:26] Hobbsee: he hasn't identified with my nick [13:27] he's just marked as such [13:27] and I don't want to ghost him without talking to him about it :) kind of rude I think === pep` is now known as pep [13:49] pep: have you registered your nick on freenode? [13:50] geser: oh yes, it's not a problem, I wanted to write that in #freenode channel actually... I only wandered why the person was marked as identified, but apparently he identified with his nick and then nicked to pep. [13:50] but thanks for the concern :) === siretart_ is now known as siretart [14:29] hi guys [14:29] i registed at launchpad for http://shipit.ubuntu.com [14:30] Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooood afternoon Launchpadders!

[14:38] hey hey [14:38] Hobbsee, tell me about "the latest release shown on launchpad [is] the latest one published, even if it's a backport" [14:39] Do you know if this is reported as a bug? [14:40] mpt: i've no idea. [14:40] mpt: i only noticed it when i tried to use that piece of information, and noticed that it had to be wrong. [14:42] Hobbsee, can you give me an example URL?

[14:47] * Hobbsee scratches head [14:47] Hobbsee, so it shows the latest release as 1:1.5.4.5-1~dapper1 [14:47] What should it be? [14:47] why do we have a backport that's newer than anything else we have in ubuntu, of that package? [14:48] * Hobbsee hadn't noticed that before [14:49] lamont: ? [14:49] mpt: my error, then. [14:52] ok [14:53] Hobbsee: yeah, that'd probably be me. [14:53] and yeah, I need to merge and upload sid's git-core === salgado is now known as salgado-brb [14:59] Hi all..

[14:59] I mean, there is new strings in a new version and it need to update [15:02] danielm, I think you can. danilos or jtv will be able to give you a more certain answer when they're around. [15:03] oki, thanks :) [15:05] <\sh> guys, is something wrong with the bzr code scanner ? === salgado-brb is now known as salgado [15:08] <\sh> it looks like that the scanner is not working because I can see many branches in the web-frontend, which are not updated properly...while fetching the stuff works as expected [15:09] Hi all, I have a little question about the new logo... why there is a white background in the logo while it is showed in a gray tab (and the white cover also the top border of the tab) [15:11] Volans, it's a bug, bug 249470 [15:11] Launchpad bug 249470 in launchpad "launchpad logo has a white background" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/249470 [15:13] thank you mpt, I think that it is also not positioned in the right place, not vartically centered in the tab [15:14] right [15:15] mpt: can I add this to the bug? [15:16] or you are speaking directly with who work on this? [15:16] beuno, it was an attempt to make the "pad" readable [15:17] wgrant, I think the problem you're referring to with the notifications is bug 249246 [15:17] Launchpad bug 249246 in launchpad ""you must log in to Launchpad" icon overlaps location bar" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/249246 [15:18] klette, the Bugs page for a project hasn't been designed yet.

[16:18] maybe when deactivating an account, subscription to projects should be automatically removed? [16:19] but i want my account [16:19] Actually, I think I reported a bug about this a couple of days ago [16:19] solarwind: yes, this is enough; now you have to wait for an administrator to look after it [16:19] ok thanks andrea-bs [16:19] bye all [16:20] I found bug 238493 [16:20] Launchpad bug 238493 in launchpad "Deactivated account still appear in 'subscribers'-portlet" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/238493 === matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch [16:27] waht happens when a translation string changes?

What you do is create a team, upload the code to the team, and anyone on it can commit [16:43] ahh got it [16:43] but [16:43] what if my project is already set up [16:43] and i only need like one or two other people to be abel to commit [16:43] and a team seems too much [16:43] is it possible to add just one more person? [16:45] ? [16:45] solarwind, you can't allow people to commit to your branches [16:46] they can upload branches, and you can merge from them [16:46] solarwind, but you can give your branch to a team, though [16:46] but for multiplayer committing, you need a team [16:46] oh! kiko es back! hi kiko [16:47] beuno: thanks that seems like a good idea, so anyone can just create a branch? [16:47] and i can merge them? [16:47] how would i know if someone created a branch related to my project? [16:48] damn bzr branching takes forever [16:48] even just to start [16:48] solarwind, yes, anyone can create a branch and upload to the project [16:48] beuno: so how do i kno whos done that [16:48] so, they can as for a merge request, when they feel there branch is ready [16:48] AHH [16:48] got it [16:48] thanks! [16:49] solarwind, you can also go the your projects URL, and see what other branches are laying around [16:49] yea [16:49] Odd_Bloke: Can you be a bit less vague? [16:49] and is bzr branch suposed to take SOO long? [16:50] i typed in bzr branch lp:etracer [16:50] solarwind, how big is the branch? [16:50] just to try it out [16:50] and its sitting there [16:50] seems to be doing nothing [16:50] for the past minute [16:51] solarwind, it seems like a big-ish branch, it may take a few minutes to download [16:52] but im not getting any output beuno [16:52] its just sitting there, is that supposed to happen? [16:52] at least my svn checkout is giving me some output [16:53] Laibsch: pong [16:53] Laibsch: I've reported bug 249508. I can't do more, sorry [16:53] Launchpad bug 249508 in rosetta "It is not obvious how to add a member to a translation group" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/249508 [16:53] solarwind, it depends, but it's not abnormal for it to sit around for a bit [16:53] got it [16:54] andrea-bs: thanks [16:54] jtv: how do I add a member to a translation group? [16:54] its been like 5 minutes now =\ [16:54] anyway gotta go l [16:54] later all [16:54] and thanks for the help [16:55] Laibsch: doesn't the group's page show you the "Appoint additional translators" link? [16:55] yes [16:55] I can appoint one translator per language [16:55] that's not what I call a team [16:56] Laibsch: then appoint a team instead of a person :-) [16:56] how dumb is that? [16:56] I have a translation group to act as a team [16:57] then I create another group (to get a team) [16:57] Laibsch: the terminology is a bit weird, but teams are a building block that you can use for all sorts of groupings. [16:57] so I can appoint that team (that we hope is really a team now) to be responsible for language X? [16:57] Yes [16:57] hm, bzr in LP seems particularly slow today... [16:57] very strange [16:57] Laibsch: in any place I can think of, if you can use a person, you can use a team as well. [16:58] why all the trouble with the translation *group*, then? You could just have that as part of the project? [16:58] that extra layer seems to be totally superfluous [16:58] Laibsch: the group can serve many different projects (and products, and distributions) [16:58] and very confusing [16:59] jtv: that is no reason to have a group === Ursinha-lunch is now known as Ursinha [16:59] a translation group separate from the project itself [16:59] Laibsch: if you look at https://translations.launchpad.net/+groups/ you'll see. [17:00] or can you explain to me why that is necessary? [17:00]
