seiflotfyhey guys01:00
seiflotfycan some1 help me with bzr brachnes and ppas01:00
seiflotfyhow can i create a ppa package out of a bzr branch01:01
RAOFseiflotfy: There's currently no special integration of bzr with the PPA system.01:03
RAOFseiflotfy: So, you create a tarball from your bzr branch and package as normal.  bzr-builddeb can help with this, though.01:04
seiflotfyi am trying to create a package out of mayanna01:04
seiflotfycan any1 help me with that01:08

RAOFThat's a good first start.01:09
Hobbseepeople, launchpad is getting /.'d.01:38
RAOFGreat.  Why?01:39
lifelessfirefox branding01:39
RAOFUrgh.01:40
lifelessHobbsee: is it notixably slow?01:40
wgrantYeah. Oops.01:40
wgrantIt is being fairly slow, but not as slow as I would expect.01:40
RAOFSo we now have a huge bug with a hojilion OMG! responses?01:40
wgrantAnd a huge forum thread. And a nasty Mozilla. A bad combination.01:40
wgrantlifeless: It's not Firefox branding. It's Firefox's EULA.01:41
Hobbseelifeless: well, it always is very slow for me, but it doesn't seem to be slower than usual, at the moment.01:41
lifelesswgrant: uhm, the EULA is tied to having the binary branded with the upstream branding01:42
lifelesswgrant: If you're trying to be pedantic, FAIL. If you're saying I'm wrong, you haven't read enough about the issue :)01:42
wgrantlifeless: It seems that the only useful clause is unrelated to the branding.01:42
wgrantBut the main complaint is about the EULA.01:42
wgrantThe EULA may be tied to the branding, but the branding isn't what is having hate thrown at.01:43
lifelesswell, there's lots of hate to throw around01:43
wgrantThere is.01:44
wgrantI guess there are benefits to /. readers not RTFA.01:48

gourmorning06:25
goursome of my team-members are interested about copyright/license issues for blueprints at LP. which license applies to them?06:27
spivgour: you've seen https://help.launchpad.net/TermsofUse ?06:29
spivgour: also, note that launchpad doesn't host the blueprints, it just keeps track of blueprints.06:30
spivgour: so I don't see any way that using Launchpad could affect the copyright of your blueprints.  (IANAL, etc)06:31
gourthanks06:32
gouryes, i've seen the above URL, but some members are cautious because of translation-BSD issue while the project is GPL06:32
gouris there any plan to enhance search for Blueprints, like filter by some attribute etc. ?06:54
jameshgour: the issue with translations is that Launchpad provides a way to use translations entered for one project as suggestions for another.06:54
jameshthis means your project benefits from work done on other projects if there are similar strings06:54
jameshif all the translations entered on LP for your project were GPL licensed, then they couldn't be used as suggestions for GPL-incompatible projects (e.g. MPL, etc)06:55
gourjamesh: i understand and have no objection if other projects use my translation. however some devs do not like mixing two licenses in the same project06:56
gourjamesh: but if LP is used for translating, than they must be BSD?06:56
jameshgour: given that the requirements of the BSD license are essentially a subset of the GPL requirements, there isn't anything wrong with licensing your project as a whole under the GPL06:57
ajaksugour: GPL has no problem with GPL06:57
ajaksuoops, with BSD06:57
jameshthe only real effect of the translation licensing is that translations entered for your project may end up being used for other projects06:57
jamesh(which hopefully you're fine with, since the reverse also happens)06:58
jameshnow, there isn't really any analogue of this for blueprints06:58
jameshso there is no similar licensing requirement06:58
gourjamesh: so, blueprints are solely under the project's license?06:59
jameshgour: given that the text is hosted externally, it can be whatever you want.07:00
jameshthere is no set requirement.07:00
gourthank you07:04

buttnuttHi spads09:06
buttnuttsuch a nasty little nickname09:06
imyojimbo?09:08
jameshbuttnutt: Please be civil09:12
imyojimbocan some 1 help me with this09:12
spivimyojimbo: what in particular do you want to do?09:13
buttnuttok @jamesh09:13
spivimyojimbo: generally you can ignore features like milestones until you want to use them.09:14
imyojimboif we can simulate a project development being started. can u describe how will it look like09:14
buttnuttcheck this out fuckers09:14
imyojimboi have one series, called trunk09:14
spivimyojimbo: maybe the simplest thing to do would be to register a project on https://staging.launchpad.net and just experiment with it there.09:15
spivjamesh: setting a ban in case buttnutt comes back might be a good idea?09:15
imyojimboyes, but i dont understand how it should look like09:15
spivimyojimbo: well, how it looks like depends on how you want to manage your project :)09:16
imyojimboi know. but i understand there are conventions, and there are ways ppl use all the time09:16
spivimyojimbo: for simple or new projects, you probably just want to just have a single series.09:16
imyojimbowhy will i want another series?09:16
spivMost projects have a "trunk" which is where active development happens.09:17
spivSome projects will make releases that maintained separately from the trunk.09:17
imyojimboand then merge the changes back?09:17
spivFor instance, there are multiple supported releases of Python09:18
jameshspiv: if he comes back being and is still an arsehole, it'd be worth banning him.  If the warning is enough, I'd prefer to leave it.09:18
imyojimboi see a project that has a trunk series and also a "devel" series, both for development, why09:20
spivMost development activity happens on the trunk, which is where development of Python 2.6 is currently happening.  But there are also maintenance releases of earlier releases, e.g. Python 2.509:20
spivSo if Python used Launchpad, they'd have a 2.5 series (with releases called 2.5, 2.5.1, 2.5.2, etc) and a 2.6 series, and so on.09:20
gourspiv: what about 3.0 series :-)09:21
spivgour: "and so on" :)09:21
spivimyojimbo: you'd have to ask that project09:21
spivimyojimbo: possibly it's just a harmless mistake :)09:21
gourhopefully 3.0 will be adopted prior to html-5 :-D09:22
imyojimbomaybe its for public development and will be merged with the trunk when its ready09:22
imyojimbois that reasonable?09:22
spivimyojimbo: basically, if there's concurrent work on multiple versions of the project, then you probably want to use series to help you track that work.09:22
jameshimyojimbo: a good rule of thumb is to consider whether a release is likely to have more than one direct successor version.  Using Python as an example, both 2.5.1 and 2.6 were derived from 2.509:22
jameshso you have two release series09:22
spivimyojimbo: if you're unsure, especially if it's a new project, I'd recommend just having a single series to start with.  You can always add another one later.09:23
imyojimboso for start, i use the trunk series, and i start defining milestones for each version? and when i have something ready and stable i will create a new series? with the new version as its name09:25
jameshimyojimbo: one way to think about it is this: Lets say that you've released version X of your software and have started work on version X+1.  If someone reports a bug affecting the released version, would you fix it for version X+1, or put out a bug fix only point release branched from the previous release?09:28
jameshif you're only planning on doing a linear series of releases, then you can probably go with a single release series.09:29
imyojimboi will fix the bug in the x+1 version, right?09:31
jameshyes.  But are you likely to put out a release containing the bug fix but none of the other features you've been working on for X+1?09:31
imyojimbooh, so, by using a series i capture a snapshot of the branches, when a release is made, and i plan supoorting it. and while i keep development on the trunk and new features, i will fix bugs for the older versio in its series and merge it back to the trunk?09:33
jameshThe idea here is to try and model how you develop your project rather than the other way around.09:34
jameshif you do multiple series of releases in parallel (development + maintenance series), then use multiple series09:34
jameshif you are just doing a single series of releases, then use one series.09:34
spivimyojimbo: pretty much.  Although series don't exactly "capture a snapshot of the branches", it's more they give you a way to say "here's the branch where work on this series happens".09:35
gourimyojimbo: do you use bzr?09:37
imyojimbolaunchpad only works with bzr.. so yes09:37
imyojimboi know i can link it to other repos i think, but i really wanna keep it simple09:38
gourhow does your workflow look like?09:38
gourcentralized, distributed...09:38
gouras jamesh said...if you have clear workflow for developing your project, LP will assist you in it09:39
imyojimboim just about to start development. i pretty much want to define a version milestones (bugs, blueprints), and then work untill i get reach that milestone. and call it a version. then i define the next one09:40
jameshimyojimbo: in general, I'd stick with a single series until you find you are doing parallel releases09:40
jameshyou'll probably know when it is appropriate.09:40
spivimyojimbo: regardless of launchpad, there's extra effort involved in keeping multiple active lines of development rather than just one09:40
gourimyojimbo: start with devloping code and make e.g. 'experimental' branch...milestones and releases will come along the way09:40
spivimyojimbo: so until you have evidence that it's worth it for you, I'd suggest starting with just a single 'trunk' series and making releases directly from that.09:41
imyojimbook, thanks guys09:42
imyojimboill do that09:42
imyojimbobtw , what do u think of bzr comparing to svn for example09:43
spivI find bzr much more helpful than svn.09:43
gourimyojimbo: no need to think of svn when using bzr ;)09:43
spivBut I'm a bzr developer, so maybe that's not surprising :)09:44
* gour even uses bzr-svn to fetch from svn repos09:44
imyojimbolol09:44
spivMaking and merging branches, and working offline are both much better with bzr IMO.09:44
* gour is not bzr dev, but bzr satisfied customer09:44
imyojimbois there a plugin for VS fo bzr?09:45
gourimyojimbo: before bzr i used darcs cause i was never able to grok cvs/bzr09:45
gours|cvs/bzr/cvs/svn09:46
gourahh...s|cvs/bzr|cvs/svn09:46
gourimyojimbo: dunno. there are qbzr and bzr-gtk gui09:47
frk2helloall09:48
frk2i had some questions regarding best practices at launchpad09:48
imyojimbook, ill try those09:48
imyojimbothanks09:48
gourimyojimbo: see http://bazaar-vcs.org/TortoiseBzr too. no experience here 'cause i'm on linux09:49
spivfrk2: ask away :)09:49
frk2if I have a project X and two branches - trunk and 0.5.0 release, for example - and I wanted to take the 'workflow with human gatekeeper' approach, do i ask all 'other' developers to register their own branches and have them merge to this one?09:49
spivfrk2: yeah09:50
spivfrk2: if you have the trunk and 0.5.0 branches in Launchpad 'owned' by the gatekeeper, then only that account will be able to commit/push to them.09:51
spivfrk2: and then the other developers can ask that gatekeeper to merge their changes, e.g. by registering merge proposals in Launchpad, or by using "bzr send" to a mailing list, or whatever you like.09:52

frk2spiv, sorry i had to run- got your messages. Thats exactly what I thought you are supposed to do.13:00
spivfrk2: cool13:01
frk2spiv, My only question is that say developer X who does not have write access to the TRUNK release where does he maintain his repo on launchpad?13:01
frk2does he push it to a new branch under his name or do i create a new branch for him in my project?13:01
frk2if the branch doesnt exist on launchpad- i cannot exactly ask for 'changes to be merged' right?13:02
frk2ofcourse I can just use the 'send' approach- but what if i decide on using the selective 'merge' approach - looks cleaner13:03
frk2spiv, just trying to understand the workflow here- if there is a document online explaining this please point me there13:04
spivfrk2: he cann just push it to his own area on Launchpad, yes.13:04
spivfrk2: you can easily get Launchpad to mirror branches hosted elsewhere, btw.13:04
frk2spiv, im hosting it there though13:05
frk2spiv, the 'own' area in +junk doesnt give the option of merging to another branch though13:05
spivfrk2: ah13:05
spivfrk2: +junk is only good for junk :)13:06
spivfrk2: make a real project if you want to do project-managementy things like tracking bugs and merge requests :)13:06
frk2I have a real project :)13:06
frk2but what abount random contributors?13:06
spivOh, you realise that anyone can upload to ~THEIR_USERID/YOUR_PROJECT/* ?13:07
frk2I get it i get it :)13:07
frk2spiv, thanks for clarifying that13:07
spivfrk2: e.g. you could push up a branch to lp:~frk2/bzr/my-branch right now :)  (assuming I've guessed your user id correctly)13:07
frk2spiv, so thats an acceptable practice? its cool to have as many branches as developers i guess13:08
spivDefinitely.13:08
spivWith a distributed VCS, anyone can make a branch.13:08
frk2okay- slightly different from the SVN way, but makes 10x more sense13:08
spivAnd with an open source project, people should be able to make their own branches.13:09
spivRight, it's much nicer than the SVN way, because you don't need to give someone commit rights to your repo for them to be able to use the same tools as the core devs.13:09
frk2exactly13:10
frk2awesome13:10
frk2spiv, thanks!13:10
spivfrk2: you're welcome13:13
frk2spiv, one more question :)13:20
frk2whats the best way of STARTING a new contributors branch13:21
frk2should i simply propose the main TRUNK branch to HIS branch?13:21
frk2propose for merging13:21
spivfrk2: I'm not sure what you mean by starting13:23
frk2spiv, a new developer comes in and creates his own branch13:23
spivfrk2: If I were a new contributor to your project, I'd start by just doing "bzr branch lp:project"13:23
spivfrk2: when I've done something interesting, then I'd do "bzr push lp:~spiv/project/my-cool-thing"13:24
frk2exactly- and then push the code to your own personal branch13:24
frk2yeah13:24
spivfrk2: then let you know about it, e.g. propose it for merging back to lp:project13:24
* gour thinks DVCS rocks13:24
frk2okay. I thought i could avoid that step by simply pushing code directly in his empty branch13:24
spivfrk2: no action required on your part :)13:24
frk2nevermind :)13:25
frk2i'll do it that way13:25
frk2I hope launchpad is 'safe' for hosting your hard work? :) amazing service i must say, plain beautiful and extremely usable13:34

beunomok0, to what project?15:55
beunowhat URL are you looking at?15:55
mok0Just my personal page15:55
beunomok0, right, you add blueprints to projects, so you have to go to the project's page15:55
mok0I see15:56
mok0Thanks15:56
beunoI agree we could offer you to create one from other places as well15:56
beunoso I'll file a bug for that15:56

* gour thinks it's better to fix that stupid bug than enforcing such req. to end-users18:34
BjornTgour: i find it odd that the whole message doesn't get signed. signing the message is a proof of that you wrote the e-mail. i mean, if you wrote an e-mail saying "here's a picture of me", and doesn't sign the attachment (together with the text), someone could simply replace the picture and re-send the mail.18:34

rawlerhey people.. I get an error in uploading to my ppa that I can't understand..19:35
rawlerfor some reason, it rejects my uploads due to failed checksums.. I've verified them manually and they seems correct?19:35
rawleralso relevant may be that I already have the package in question in launchpad ppa for intrepid, now back-porting to hardy, so I needed to change a dep.. but I don't think the .diff.gz-checksum should clash between distributions, should it?19:36
rawlerhas anyone got a clue on what's going on?19:37
geserdid you change the version?19:37
rawlerehm, i'm trying to upload with the same version, but to hardy instead of intrepid.. so maybe? :)19:38
rawlerI'm really new to debian packaging, and constantly confused.. :)19:38
geseryou can only have one version in your ppa19:38
rawlergeser: oh, so I can't have the same version of a package compiled for both hardy and intrepid?19:39
bigjoolsyou can but you need to copy it between distroseries19:40
geserno, you need to slightly modify the revision (e.g. add the distribution name to the revision)19:40
bigjoolsno, don't do that :)19:40
rawlerok, but the _only_ change required is to drop one requirement for hardy? do I still need to fiddle with different revisions and stuff?19:41
bigjoolshttps://launchpad.net/+people/+me/+archive/+copy-packages19:43

bigjoolslet it recompile19:44
geserdoes rebuilding work now?19:44
geserhow is the filename problem solved?19:44
rawlerwell, it doesn't compile without a small change.. (on hardy it must not build-depend on libqt4-opengl-dev, and on intrepid it won't build without that build-dep)19:45
rawlerI get an error while trying to copy..19:45
rawler"The following source cannot be copied: tetzle 1.1.0-0ubuntu5 in intrepid (same version already has published binaries in the destination archive)"19:46

Rinchennand, great! We have some internal testing a wee bit of polishing before it's ready. We're also going to see about getting it released under a FOSS license and accepted upstream.20:03
BjornTgour: that's odd. i wouldn't have expected it to go through. looks like a bug.20:03

nandmight help to have a broader preview20:04
nanduh, broader testing20:05
Rinchennand, it's not really a public vs private issue. It's just that we finished coding it, want to deploy it on some internal sites first to ensure it actually works! :-)20:06
Rinchennand, how would it look for us to release garbage code. :-)20:06
nandRinchen: eheh :) devel.ideatorrent.org is a testing website, so it is no problem to have buggy things here!20:07
