extrakrisphi, I was wondering if the launchpad project itself (the application which powers launchpad.net) is open source, and if so, where can the sources be gotten and development tracked?13:51
persiaextrakrisp, Best answer is "not yet".  There was a presentation in December indicating that large portions of LP should be open-sourcing progressively over the first half of 2009.13:55
extrakrispah, and is there any URL on dedicated mailing list which allows one to be kept up to date on the progress of this effort?13:57
extrakrispor*13:57
persiaI'd guess launchpad-users, but that's only a guess.13:58
extrakrispok, thanks a bunch!13:58
thekorn_there is also a usefull wiki page https://dev.launchpad.net/OpenSourcing13:58

tcrI just saw that you can set up mailinglist with launchpad; can you also subscribe such a mailing list to the bug tracker?14:06
persiatcr, Yes.  What you cannot do is allow people who are not members of your team to subscribe to the mailing list.  The admin interface also isn't ideal.  Other than that, they do just about anything you would expect from a mailing list.14:07
tcrpersia: My final goal is to make the mailing list available through gmane as a read-only group.14:09
tcrHas anyone done that before?14:09
persiaDunno if anyone did it, but LP MLs are uniquely suitable because it's really hard to subscribe.14:13
tcruniquely suitable?14:16
tcrI think I'll add a feature request for gmane support. And ask for advice what scenario deems the developers best.14:16
tcrThe issue is available for comments under https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/5707214:27
bebrawhow can i cancel a VCS import? i figured out a way to handle it manually14:27

Goundybebraw I got same problem before and just asked an admin and he kicked it out for me :)14:28
bebrawGoundy, cool. :) i come from svn background so getting in grips with bzr takes a while. the concept is neat though :)14:29
Goundybebraw I came from svn also... and to be honnest I feel like svn is a crap compared to bazaar ^^14:29

vadi2I'm having a small issue with "bzr commit --fixes lp:#". It links to the bug report, but does not set status to fix released.15:13
vadi2I'm not sure why, and I didn't find any launchpad page for this feature (just read it off an interview)15:14
wgrantvadi2: It's not intended that it will close the bug, and there are good reasons for this.15:28
wgrantYou need to close the bug manually.15:29

idnarso, I had a bug with an associated branch, and I merged the branch into trunk (which is my "development focus"); should this not be reflected on the bug report in some way?19:18
idnarI sort of expected it to change to status "Fix Committed"19:20
nhandleridnar: I believe it won't mark it as Fix Committed unless the bzr commit was marked as fixing the LP bug19:22
nhandlerI think there is a --fixes flag for bzr19:22
idnarI used --fixes lp:123424619:22
idnarand once I pushed the branch to launchpad, it was automatically associated with the bug, which is fine19:23
idnarmaybe the problem is that I didn't repeat --fixes when I committed the merge?19:24

FAJALOUhi i have am trying to upload a package to my ppa.... I have a .dsc, .orig.tar.gz, .build, .diff.gz and .tar.bz2, how can (and what) do i need to upload? THANKS!22:23
RAOFFAJALOU: The .source :)22:23
FAJALOUhmmm ;)22:23
mok0_source.changes22:23
FAJALOUi have no idea what iam doing :((( lol.22:23
RAOFThis can be built by running 'debuild -S' in the extracted package directory.22:23
FAJALOUah ok22:24
RAOFmok0: Ok, if you want to be actually _correct_, then yes :)22:24
mok0he22:24
mok0I do22:24
FAJALOUand how can i upload it RAOF ?22:24
FAJALOU(is it ok if debsign failed?22:25
mok0no debsign needs to suceed22:25
FAJALOU:( lol22:25
persiaMost common error with debsign failing is that the latest entry in the changelog isn't an exact match for the Name, Comment, and email address of one of the identities on the GPG key.22:26
FAJALOUdebuild:  fatal error at line 150:22:26
FAJALOUOh ok....22:26
FAJALOUthat makes sens, what to do then?22:27
ScottK-k<KeyID>22:27
persiaNo, just fix the changelog to match.22:27
ScottKOK.  That too.22:27
persia-k is like swatting a fly with a sledgehammer22:27
FAJALOUo are you flipping kidding me!22:27
FAJALOUgra22:27
FAJALOUi did this all on my laptop; i am now on my desktop...22:28
FAJALOUok i will do this later...22:28
FAJALOUthanks22:29
persiaBest practice is to have a mapping between keys and identities, rather than a mapping between keys and computers.22:29
FAJALOU?22:30
mok0FAJALOU: change top changelog entry to be signed by you22:31
FAJALOUmok0: even if the key is on a diff. computer?22:31
mok0FAJALOU: you should use an ID which is also in your gpg key22:32
FAJALOUand in what file should I change it?22:32
mok0FAJALOU: debian/changelog22:32
FAJALOUis there a way to dll my key from the internet?  i have the url for my key for my ppa22:33
mok0FAJALOU: you need your secret key which is not on the internet, but in ~/.gnupg22:34
FAJALOU?22:34
FAJALOUmok0: but it is a different key than my key online.... the one i used to sign my ppa...22:35
mok0FAJALOU: you need your signing key on the machine you are working on22:35
FAJALOUmok0: ok, it has nothing to do w/ the internet?22:36
mok0FAJALOU: no22:36
FAJALOUah ok22:36
mok0FAJALOU: ... but your public key may be on the internet22:37
mok0FAJALOU: on a key server22:37
FAJALOUhow can i figure out my 'passphrase'22:38
FAJALOUisn't that my pw?22:38
mok0FAJALOU: no, that's what you defined when you created your key pair22:38
FAJALOU...... hmm...... can i find it if i have seahorse open?22:38
mok0FAJALOU: if you've forgotten it, you're toast22:38
mok0FAJALOU: Not even the CIA could recover it :-)22:39
FAJALOUi never remember setting a passphrase22:39
mok0FAJALOU: you have to22:40
FAJALOUhehe22:41
