macothekorn: hello08:22
thekornhi maco08:22
thekornara: hi, I'm about to add the hugday tool to ubuuntu-qa-tools,08:38
thekornbut lp:~ubuntu-bugcontrol/ubuntu-qa-tools/packaging is missing debian/ from you packaging branch08:38
thekorncan you please update this branch?08:38
arathekorn: sure, will do08:39
arathekorn: I didn't notice it was missing... weird08:39
arathekorn: this one is the one: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~apulido/ubuntu-qa-tools/packaging08:41
thekornok, I will use this one,08:42
thekornand file a merge request for this one08:42
arathekorn: ok, thanks08:42
askandIs there a need to file bugs about upgrading software in repos to the newest version in Jaunty?09:33
ccookeIs there, anywhere, some actual information about how to *do* things in Launchpad?10:14
thekornara: pushed my changes to lp:~thekorn/ubuntu-qa-tools/add_hugday, will do a test build and create the merge request this evening10:14
ccookeNot *what* to do or *when* to do it, just the actual mechanics of how you accomplish various tasks.10:14
ccookeFor instance, correctly linking a bug to various types of project.10:15
jpdsccooke: help.launchpad.net ?10:15
ccookejpds: I'm there10:16
arathekorn: cool! thanks! I will review it tomorrow morning and ask for sponsorship accordingly10:16
ccookenot finding what I'm after :-/10:16
ccookeI see lots of stuff about what you *can* do10:16
thekornara: gracias10:17
ccooke... uh. Oh. So you have to link a branch *to* a bug report. You can't link a bug report to a branch?!10:17
dholbachthekorn: maybe we should move hugdaylist into ubuntu-qa-tools now that it's there :)10:18
jpdsccooke: Maybe https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs and subpages?10:19
jpdsccooke: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad ?10:20
ccookejpds: tried there, too :-)10:20
thekorndholbach: yes, makes sense, where is this tool now?10:20
ccookeagain, it's full of the when and the what, but very short on the how!10:20
dholbachthekorn: ubuntu-dev-tools10:21
ccookethe specific example: There's a bug that looks like a bash completion bug. I'm trying to link it to there - but I got the upstream, which apparently isn't used. And try as I might - although I've found the Ubuntu bash-completion project - I can't create a link to it!10:21
jpdsccooke: I see a +choose-affected-project link under the bug status info.10:23
thekorndholbach: ok, u-qa-tools sounds like a better place,10:23
thekornwill also look at it later today10:23
dholbachthekorn: there's a bunch of bug tools in ubuntu-dev-tools that could probably move :)10:24
ccookejpds: ... I don't. There's an "Also affects project" link... which has worked before... but the only bash-completion it lists is the upstream10:25
ccooke... Ah, but there *is* a field for "package".10:25
ccookebah.10:26
ccookeExcept that's related to the thing it was *ioriginally* filed under.10:26
ccookeyou can't *add* another package while keeping the current one.10:26
jpdsccooke: Which bug #?10:26
ccooke32745210:27
ccooke(well, I'm sure you *can*. I'm just not seeing *how*)10:27
jpdsccooke: So we should like it to the ubuntu source package?10:29
=== elmargol is now known as quassel94
ccookewell, it's a regression in Jaunty.10:29
jpdslink*10:29
ccookeSounds like something to link, yes10:29
thekorndholbach: apropos scrips, you showed me a script to create source packages for multible versions of ubuntu at once and sign it, what's the name of this script and where can I find it?10:30
jpdsccooke: changed package assignment: Ubuntu --> bash-completion (Ubuntu)10:31
ccookeright. Noticed that. But you didn't actually add project/package10:31
jpdsYes, I just changed from distro to package.10:32
ccookeas I said, I (just :-) saw how to change the package, but can't see how to add one10:32
ccookeand it seems that the "usual" behaviour I've seen in bugs other people have worked on is to add the new package and leave the old one as invalid10:32
ccookeRight. Thanks anyway.10:34
ccookeBefore I go fiel a bug against Launchpad's documentation... *is* there any documentaion on actual processes in there?10:35
ccookeI still can't see any.10:35
dholbachthekorn: daniels-machine-in-berlin:~daniel/bin/build-sources :-)10:45
dholbachhttp://people.ubuntu.com/~dholbach/build-sources10:45
dholbachbut there's a nicer script somewhere, let me try to find it10:45
thekornhehe, thanks10:46
dholbachhttps://launchpad.net/autoppa I think does something similar10:46
thekorndholbach: thanks, but it looks more complicated ;)10:48
dholbachthekorn: the unstoppable james_w might have a more authoritative, cleverer and saner method too :)10:50
dholbach... and better documented :)10:50
ccookeanyone: Is there any action on Launchpad you've had trouble finding the right way to accomplish?11:03
ccookeI'm filing a bug report on their documentation and trying to give some good examples of things that would help new users11:04
james_wI have nothing, sorry11:05
ccookethis is the problem with people who already know how to do things :-)11:06

ubuntujenkinsHi I am a newbie so hope someone can help. On the new bug reports page if there is a report such as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/263561 . Is this a bug? It appears not to be a bug so can I some how remove it from the list or assign it to something else? If so what can it be assigned to?16:39
ubottuUbuntu bug 263561 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] ViewMAX for ZoneMinder - new GUI for ZoneMinder security video" [Undecided,New]16:39
ubuntujenkinsindeed16:40
bdmurrayubuntujenkins: it is a request for a new package and while not technically a bug report the best place for it is the bug tracking system16:42
bdmurrayubuntujenkins: you can learn more about them at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage#Needs%20Packaging%20Bugs16:42
ubuntujenkinsbdmurray: Thank you for that makes sense and appears to be easy. Should be able to sit and clear a few from the list.16:45

EagleScreenhow can i add a tag to a bug?18:20
bdmurrayEagleScreen: edit the description18:21
EagleScreenpatch tag must be used when a patch is provided?18:23
bdmurrayEagleScreen: no, what bug are you looking at?18:24
EagleScreenBug #32733318:24
ubottuLaunchpad bug 327333 in qtparted "qtparted fail to open from KDE menu." [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/32733318:24
EagleScreenthen what is the usage of patch tag?18:25
bdmurrayEagleScreen: you could add it but it is kind of redundant.  You've already flagged the attachment as a patch which will make it appear in some Launchpad searches.18:26
bdmurrayYou can learn more about patches at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Patches18:26
EagleScreenthanks, but, with the patch already attached, must I do something else?18:27
EagleScreenok i am reading18:29

bdmurrayif there is a needs-packaging bug about it yeah19:47
macobdmurray: nvm, i'm being told in -motu that the maintainer went away and a better piece of software that's DFSG-free exists anyway19:49
