VelmontINTREPID: Hello, -- programs keep crashing. However, when I press the report button in Apport - I finally get to launchpad, there I see many others have the same problem, and I give up. -- Is there a better way? A way of saying "me too" that's easy and will link my infrmation with the other bug? Is my info even uploaded to launchpad? Very often I just go on working when I see there are 10 other bug reports already.00:19
beunoVelmont, there's a feature in beta already that does exactly that00:20
beunomembers of the beta testers team are already using it  :)00:20
beunofeel free to apply to the team: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-beta-testers00:21
Velmontbeuno: Great. That will probably help much. I guess since I'm having a problem with it many others have as well ;-) It'll probably even better show what bugs are being triggered often. Bug reporting is a dense jungle, great that you are making it easier.00:27
VelmontI can wait for the feature to roll in. I just like feeling helpful when pressing the  "report crash" button, but feel let down when I actually can't help quick and easy as I want. -- I'm in the process of writing/delivering an exam now so I shouldn't be reporting bugs nor chat on IRC :P00:28
beunohehe00:29
beunowell, the fact that the bug has already been reported00:29
beunoactually means there's a greater chance it will be fixed soon00:29
beunoI love it when I go to report something and it's already there  :)00:29
stgraberbeuno: btw, from an UI point of view I'm not sure it's the best place for the "me too" link00:33
stgraberbeuno: I didn't notice it until you mentioned it :)00:33
beunostgraber, intellectronica has a branch that will make it easier to find00:33
beunoso, I agree00:33

persiaI've encountered a bit of a UI overlap : http://img127.imageshack.us/my.php?image=lpuiod4.png : is this a bug, or should I not be using LP like this?07:47
Hobbseeoh good, thanks for poking ppa buildds.07:48
Hobbseeexcellent.  it even built.07:51
BjornT_persia: that's a bug. i suspect the fix will be to remove that page, and incorporate it with the normal +filebug.08:01
persiaBjornT_, Umm.  That page remains the sane means of filing bugs.  Will this include some other changes to the UI to still have a simple interface?08:04
BjornT_persia: well, the only thing that +filebug-advanced provides is the possibility to specify tags. it also reduces the number of page loads by skipping the search for duplicates. i assume that you're concerned about the number of page loads, right?08:10
persiaAnd the ability to enter tags directly (which is also about page loads).08:10
BjornT_persia: right. but by incorporating +filebug-advanced into +filebug, i meant making it possible to enter tags there. we'll be redesigning the ui to take advantage of ajax, which should reduce the number of page loads.08:12
persiaBjornT_, Oh, excellent news then : that probably saves me the page load of clicking "Give me the complicated bug filing interface" or whatever the link is called now :)08:13

YokoZarYou do, however, need to do a dch -i in order to change "hardy-backports" back to "hardy"08:42

HewHi. I seem get kicked off my launchpad login shortly after I start doing things with bugs in the Gufw project (the only launchpad project I really use, other than Ubuntu). I heard there was a similar problem with feeds doing this a while ago when I had this problem, but I'm still experiencing it. Is this a known issue? I can't find an open bug about it.16:58
=== matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch
sinzuiHew: The feeds issue (specifically relating to branch feeds) is fixed.17:00
=== kiko is now known as kiko-fud
Hewsinzui: Should I report a bug about this issue then? I'm using edge. I've had this happen about 5 times now, and it only happens when interacting with this project (I otherwise spend a lot of time on Ubuntu bugs, and have never been logged out there).17:02
sinzuiHew: I'm looking into this now. Are using feeds, or are you using the launchpad UI17:03
Hewsinzui: Launchpad UI. I have never used Launchpad feeds, apart from having the feed icon appear in firefox for them.17:03
sinzuithanks17:04
sinzuiHew: you were commenting some bugs, and were logged out after each bug? or just after some period?17:05
sinzuiHew: what browser are your using? Do you know what your cookie policy is?17:07
Hewsinzui: In previous cases I have gone to submit a comment (I can see I am logged in), but it then sends me to a page saying I am unauthorised, and I need to log in again. This time I actually noticed I was logged out (I was using mutiple tabs and had already commented).17:07
sinzuiHew: interesting. Are you a beta tester who also uses edge.launchpad.net?17:08
Hewsinzui: I'm using firefox (abrowser), and my cookie policy is the default. I am quite sure this is a problem with gufw or projects in general, as I spend 95% of my time triaging Ubuntu bugs, and the logouts only occur when doing things with gufw17:09
Hewsinzui: Yes. https://edge.launchpad.net/~hew17:09
sinzuiThe guwf project is data, it cannot influence Launchpad, but Launchpad can do some strange things to beta users17:10
Hewsinzui: Yes, I suspect if I started commenting on bugs in other projects, the same thing would occur.17:10
sinzuiHew: It may be the case that you are not logged in one host, so you are being bounced between them and seeing different states. I personally see this?17:11
sinzuiHew: visit https://edge.launchpad.net/, then https://launchpad.net/ to confirm you are logged in in both17:13
Hewsinzui: I am logged into both17:13
sinzuiHew: I assume you were working on edge when this happened. Am I right?17:16

sinzuiOK17:24
sinzuiHew. I cannot reproduce the problem.17:28
sinzuiHew: What is the expiration date for the launchpad.net edge cookie? I am looking at Menu > Edit > Preferences > Privacy > Show Cookies17:30
Hewsinzui: It doesn't seem to happen immediately, or even for each comment. I can sometimes post multiple comments without being logged out.17:30
* Hew checks17:30
* sinzui nods17:30
Hewsinzui: Fri 09 Oct 2009 03:22:19 EST17:32
sinzuiHew: Are you running any plugins?17:32
* sinzui recalls very bad interactions with firebug and Moin openid login pages 17:34
Hewsinzui: Not really, I have ubufox, adblock, flashblock, netusage17:34
Hewsinzui: I also have greasemonkey disabled which I don't use. It may have been enabled in the past but I don't think so, and it wasn't enabled just now.17:34
sinzuiHew: we can isolate  session/preferences/plugins by running another profile17:36
sinzui    firefox -P test17:36
sinzuiwill create a new profile that you can try to see if the problem continues.17:36
