[02:37] <theine> hi, is it possible to restrict read access to bzr branches hosted on launchpad? (disclaimer: I am aware that this is not in the open-source spirit)
[02:39] <lifeless> there is the ability to have private branches, but its a commercial service rather than a free offering - the free offerings are for open source projects
[02:42] <theine> I see, is there perhaps an academic pricing plan then? As you probably know, in academia, information sometimes needs to be kept secret prior to publication
[02:47] <lifeless> theine: I think you should chat with kiko about this
[02:47] <lifeless> kiko-zzz: ^
[02:47] <lifeless> perhaps drop a mail to kiko@canonical.com
[02:49] <theine> ok, will do, cheers
[04:35] <robvdl> Hi, I had in my repo a package version 1.0rc1 now everytime I upload 1.0 it thinks 1.0rc1 is newer and I cannot delete the old package
[04:36] <robvdl> is there any way to remove it?
[04:36] <robvdl> I completely removed the package from my ppa now in hope over time it gets deleted automatically
[04:36] <robvdl> but it's still there
[04:40] <robvdl> I'm going to wait a week and see if it gets deleted over time, I was just hoping there was a way to delete the old package now
[04:48] <persia> robvdl: There is no way to remove it: see bug #263301
[04:49] <persia> Note that for some use cases, the inability to remove it is considered a feature, whereas for others it is a bug.  A decision on which use cases will be favoured is still pending.
[04:49] <persia> In the future, you might want to use a version like 1.0~rc1, but that doesn't help you now.  You need to pick a name that sorts later than rc1.
[04:50] <persia> One possibility would be 1.0release: it's ugly, but the system will permit it.
[06:07] <robvdl> ok, cool
[08:58] <jabr> g'day. I've got at merging issue. When confirming a merge it ends up in a "Oops!" with the Error ID: OOPS-978F611. Can anyone assist me?
[09:12] <cody-somerville> jabr, hi
[09:16] <jabr> cody-somerville: hi :-)
[09:17] <cody-somerville> jabr, I'm not a launchpad developer but it looks like you stumbled upon a bug :-)
[09:19] <jabr> cody-somerville: might be. The user account I'm trying to merge is a imported sourceforge account.
[09:21] <stub> There is already a bug open on that one...
[09:23] <stub> Bug 263672
[10:16] <mirkolindner> hej hi, got a question, how can I close a project in launchpad?
[10:20] <persia> mirkolindner: You need to be the project owner, and ask a question on answers.launchpad.net
[10:21] <mirkolindner> ehm ok will do thx
[11:52] <cjwatson> edge seems to be refusing to accept bug comments, bug status changes, blueprint people changes, and generally things that involve POST. Eventually it times out and lands me on https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usplash/+bug/261848/+addcomment with no content, but hasn't actually made the requested change. Is this known?
[11:54] <andrea-bs> cjwatson: Does https://edge.launchpad.net/people/+me/+edit work for you?
[11:59] <cjwatson> andrea-bs: No, same symptoms.
[11:59] <andrea-bs> cjwatson: Mh... it works for me
[12:00] <andrea-bs> cjwatson: Have you tried to delete cookies?
[12:01] <cjwatson> No, I wanted to see if any Launchpad developers were interested in debugging it before I erased the evidence
[12:14] <cjwatson> ... however, since I have to get some work done, I guess I'll have to burn the evidence
[12:17] <cjwatson> oh! sorry for the trouble. This was due to a network-manager bug which brings up both my wired and wireless interfaces simultaneously. :-(
[12:21] <wgrant> cjwatson: You're not the first to come and complain about LP being broken for that reason.
[12:25] <Nafallo> NM FAIL :-)
[12:25] <wgrant> It's more that NM is beginning to fail a bit less.
[12:26] <wgrant> Finally.
[12:26] <Nafallo> :-P
[12:31] <cjwatson> I filed bug 262152 about it a while ago, but forget about it every time I reboot.
[13:03] <gour> hi, any hint how to create 'tasks' wit LP? as bugs, blueprints...
[13:03] <gour> *with
[13:05] <andrea-bs> gour: go to the project page and click on "File a bug"
[13:07] <gour> andrea-bs: i'm asking 'cause in roundup everything is labelled as 'issue' and it's more close than a 'bug'
[13:22] <gour> does it make sense to create 'task' as bug with the importance set to 'wish'?
[13:27] <persia> gour: Depends on the importance.  In Ubuntu, typically "wishlist" is used for feature enhancements that are not essential to the user experience.
[13:28] <persia> If you've a feature that's more important than some regression or other issue, obviously you don't want Wishlist.
[13:44] <gour> persia: for example, i've a issue in roundup denoting a task named 'windows build environment' where i ask some of the team-members to take the task of testing multi-platform app under windoze environment. it's not a bug nor wishlist, so i'm not sure how to handle those under LP 'cause we plan to fully move from roundup to LP
[13:45] <persia> gour: Hmm.  I'm not sure about that sort of thing.  I've seen bugs with many tasks used previously, but that's sort of abusing LP, rather than using it.
[13:45] <persia> I suspect you'd do better to chat with someone with more familiarity with LP for project use, rather than distro use.
[13:45] <gour> ok
[16:14] <Daniell> how long does the reviewing of a .po file take?
[16:17] <Daniell> nvm
[17:05] <Tonio_> I !
[17:06] <Tonio_> I was till now hosting my @ubuntu.com mailbox on a server I'll stop working today...
[17:06] <Tonio_> I changed my launchpad contact address to a gmail account
[17:06] <Tonio_> how long do I have to wait so that my @ubuntu.com address points to the new one please ?
[17:26] <kiko> people have no patience!
[17:27] <kiko> I was going to say "it usually takes 24h"
[17:27] <kiko> but could he wait??
[17:28] <Nafallo> :-D
[17:28]  * gour is patient to get some hint how to manage 'tasks' with LP
[17:30] <kiko> gour, ah, you have a question?
[17:33] <gour> kiko-fud: yes, how to manage 'tasks' with LP, e.g. "the task of testing multi-platform app under windoze env."
[17:34] <kiko-fud> gour, oh, not bugtasks. like checklists or todos?
[17:34] <gour> yep
[17:35] <kiko-fud> gour, you will need to get creative. maybe you can use bugs + tags to accomplish this.
[17:35] <kiko-fud> i.e. we have no explicit task concept
[17:36] <gour> i see....bugs+tags might be ok
[18:36] <pro-rsoft> Hi, is it possible to assign multiple persons to a blueprint or is that impossible unless one creates a new team
[18:40] <gour> pro-rsoft: try https://staging.launchpad.net/
[18:40] <pro-rsoft> ah, thx, I didnt know about that
[18:41] <pro-rsoft> so I can change whatever I want about that to test stuff out?
[18:41] <gour> yep, sandbox ;)
[18:41] <pro-rsoft> cool
[18:42] <pro-rsoft> hmmkay, since I'm not admin there I cant assign people to blueprints
[18:43] <gour> create project/team/whatever
[18:43] <pro-rsoft> ah, ok. I thought that was just one project
[18:43] <pro-rsoft> so, when I assign people, will they really be notified?
[18:44] <gour> i don't think so
[18:44] <pro-rsoft> ok, good
[18:45] <gour> it says:"You can use that server to create sample projects, file random bugs and even push throw-away branches, all without disturbing the community actively using Launchpad."
[18:45] <pro-rsoft> ah, cool
[18:56] <matsubara> >> Launchpad meeting in 4 min in #launchpad-meeting
[18:59] <kiko> T-1
[18:59] <kiko> it is more fun than anything else on the planet
[19:01] <bdmurray> Why does a team's "assigned packages" link go to related-software and not something package related?
[19:02] <kiko> I think related software is packages, no?
[19:03] <bdmurray> Well +related-software talks about "related projects" so I don't think so
[19:03] <bdmurray> While there is a "Maintained Packages" tab
[19:04] <bdmurray> Which is what I'd think assigned packages would link to
[19:05] <kiko> is the problem the default view? give me some URLs
[19:05] <bdmurray> https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat
[19:05] <bdmurray> click on "List assigned packages"
[19:11] <kiko> bdmurray, it's a bug.
[19:12] <kiko> beuno, how do you feel about the above?
[19:12]  * beuno looks
[19:13] <beuno> huh, that's...  "interesting"
[19:13] <beuno> it's absolutely a bug
[19:14] <beuno> bdmurray, I'll file it, thanks
[19:14] <bdmurray> beuno: no problem
[19:16] <bdmurray> by the way is +packagebugs for a team linked to from anywhere
[19:29] <beuno> bdmurray, bug #264799 thanks you  :)
[19:29] <bdmurray> beuno: did you see my other question?
[19:30] <beuno> bdmurray, ah, no. What do you mean by that?
[19:30] <bdmurray> Is there anything that links to https://bugs.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+packagebugs
[19:31] <beuno> bdmurray, https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat
[19:31] <beuno> but we could make that much easier to get to
[19:31] <beuno> is that an important screen to you?
[19:33] <bdmurray> a bit, maybe adding a link for "list subscribed packages" on the main team page would work
[19:35] <beuno> bdmurray, I have bug #253652 on my queue
[19:35] <beuno> would you like to add comments on what you'd like?  (including what you just proposed)
[19:46] <_MMA_> How can I view this folder.png directly in a browser? http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~breathe-dev/breathe-icon-set/trunk/files/4?file_id=rendered-20080904180602-4kcena7h7l22ot23-4
[19:46] <_MMA_> I would like to be able to directly link to it on the Ubuntu wiki so that it displays the most up to date image.
[19:46] <psycose> hi all !
[19:47] <beuno> _MMA_, you want to embed that image?
[19:47] <beuno> Loggerhead doesn't play well with binaries
[19:47] <psycose> while launching a build process on my PPA, the system failed because for im the libasis-dev does nt exist, but this package exist in universe/libdevel section ? any tips how do tell him this ?
[19:48] <beuno> _MMA_, it will force you to download it: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Ebreathe-dev/breathe-icon-set/trunk/download/mma%40ash-20080904183201-8z6twrcuyidsx1je/folder.png-20080904183140-r1x72piikty3tiie-2/folder.png?file_id=rendered-20080904180602-4kcena7h7l22ot23-4
[19:50] <_MMA_> ﻿beuno: Yeah. I'm just trying to link directly to that image. I *thought* that used to be possible. I was under the impression they were stored in a constant place, regardless of revision.
[19:50] <beuno> _MMA_, well, I think we can hack the URL into that
[19:51]  * beuno tries to remember
[19:51] <_MMA_> beuno: Any help would be great.
[19:52] <psycose> Should the Launchpad PPA builder find any package that is in the ubuntu Universe section ? because libasis-dev is in universe and he says this package does not exist ... any tips? thanks
[19:52] <bigjools> psycose: which distro series are you building for?
[19:53] <psycose> 8.10
[19:53] <bigjools> psycose: from what I can see, it's not published in 8.10
[19:53] <_MMA_> ﻿beuno: If I can get it to work, I can just maintain the branch, and the images I link to on the wiki would take care of themselves. Would be a very big win for the ubuntu-art team.
[19:54] <psycose> bigjools: thanks, but i'm on 8.10 also, it's installed on my system, and apt-cache show tells me it is in universe ..
[19:55] <beuno> _MMA_, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Ebreathe-dev/breathe-icon-set/trunk/download/head:/folder.png-20080904183140-r1x72piikty3tiie-2/folder.png?file_id=rendered-20080904180602-4kcena7h7l22ot23-4
[19:55] <beuno> _MMA_, the trick is to replace the revid with "head:"
[19:56] <beuno> hopefully, we'll have some of this witchcraft in Loggerhead soon
[19:56] <beuno> see bugs #236702 and #260362
[19:56] <psycose> bigjools: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/libasis-dev
[19:56]  * _MMA_ tries it out.
[19:57] <_MMA_> beuno: Does the -4 at the very end denote a revision?
[19:58] <beuno> _MMA_, not really. You can guess because they contain the authors email address jumbled in it
[20:00] <_MMA_> beuno: Cool. Thanx alot man. This looks to work. Hopefully it holds true. :)
[20:00] <beuno> _MMA_, it should. And if it doesn't, hunt me down, I'll fix it  :)
[20:00] <_MMA_> :P
[20:01] <psycose> bigjools: any idea ? http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/libasis-dev
[20:03] <bigjools> psycose: I'm afraid not.  Did you depend on a specific version?
[20:05] <bigjools> psycose: file a question at https://answers.launchpad.net/soyuz
[20:07] <psycose> bigjools: no, i just mention the package name, no specific version !
[20:07] <bigjools> ok when you file the question, please reference your build log and we can take a look

[21:52] <stevemcc_gmu> is there a way to see who marked a bug to affect a certain source package using the API?
[23:46] <korpios> hmm, any reason branching from launchpad should be crawlingly-slow right now?
[23:50] <mwhudson> korpios: not really
[23:51] <korpios> hm
[23:51] <mwhudson> korpios: what protocol are you using?
[23:51] <korpios> mwhudson: hm, how would I check?
[23:51] <mwhudson> korpios: well, what command are you using?
[23:51] <korpios> bzr branch -v lp:django trunk
[23:52] <mwhudson> korpios: what does 'bzr launchpad-login' say?
[23:52] <korpios> "korpios"
[23:53] <mwhudson> should be ok, machine is only lightly loaded
[23:53] <mwhudson> 15 loadavg is >2 though, so maybe it's passed?
[23:53] <mwhudson> korpios: are you still branching?
[23:54] <korpios> it's still going ... I'm watching a pack slowly get downloaded in the packs dir; for awhile it wasn't moving at all ... the spinner isn't moving ... I already switched to a different local connection to make sure it's not me
[23:54] <mwhudson> korpios: what version of bazaar ?
[23:54] <korpios> 1.6.1rc2
[23:55] <korpios> branching into a 1.6.1-rich-repo repository
[23:56] <mwhudson> ah, well that will be doing a format conversion
[23:56] <mwhudson> (lp:django is packs-0.92)
[23:56] <korpios> as it goes?  maybe I should just branch normally first
[23:56] <mwhudson> but packs -> 1.6.1-rich-root shouldn't be too slow
[23:56] <mwhudson> korpios: it would be something to try
[23:56] <korpios> yeah, lemme give that a shot.
