HobbseeHey all.  Why in long bugs do we only see the top 80 comments?  Often, people want to see updates on the bugs - so perhaps the first 40, the message, and then last 40 would be good?00:59
Hobbseegmb: any idea why it's done that way?01:01
nhandlerHobbsee: That would make it difficult to follow the the comments.01:02
Hobbseenhandler: it would?  Why?01:03
nhandlerHobbsee: If I am looking at a bug for the first time which has > 80 comments, I would be seeing the first 40 comments, and then it would jump to the last 40. This is fine if I just want to see what the bug is about and the current status, but what if I want to see the stuff that happened in between?01:05
nhandlerThe current way of handling it would allow me to just go through the comments in order and follow the entire history of the bug01:06
Hobbseenhandler: no, i'm saying "move the box that's normally at the end, to the middle"01:06
Hobbseethen it will be obvious01:06
Hobbseeindeed, if you want to load all 102 comments, to see what the most recent updates on the bug are.01:07
nhandlerWhat box at the end? I thought it was just a link, or did they update it again01:07
HobbseeDisplaying first 80 comments.  View all 102 comments or add a comment.01:07
Hobbseein a box with a big (i)01:08
nhandlerYeah, I don't think that was there the last time I looked at a big bug. One advantage to having it at the end is that it is easy to jump to the bottom of a page. It isn't so easy to jump to the middle01:09
Hobbsee(might be only on edge yet)01:09
* nhandler runs edge01:10
Hobbseehmm, that's true.  it's easy to get there, but requires 2 page loads for something i'd think is fairly common01:10

beunodomas, is this for Ubuntu?  if it is, you can use: wiki.ubuntu.com09:15
domasnope, just a launchpad-hosted project09:15
al-maisanwgrant: re. the archive rebuilds .. the core functionality is there but initiating a rebuild is not exposed through the web application yet.09:15
beunoif not, any other place you'd like, we don't currently provide wikis, although we'd like to in the near-ish future09:15
wgrantal-maisan: And I suppose the new slave scanner and pooled buildds would make them a lot more efficient?09:16
wgrant== more plausible09:17
al-maisanwgrant: the recent build farm management improvements (particularly the improved build dispatch throughput) are of general benefit09:17

noodles775but I'm not sure I'm understanding your concern...11:48
wgrantnoodles775: It isn't possible, because I don't own the P3A and don't know whose account was used to create the token.11:48
wgrantIt may not be obviously useful to have the username there, but putting something secret in a non-secret place for no good reason doesn't seem like a good idea.11:49

henningeseems like ubuntu-drupal was moved to drupal14:23

persiaAh.  That would confuse things, but maybe make them less likely to get all the spec reassignments by default.14:23
henningepersia: but it should still be under ubuntu, right?14:24
persiaRight.14:25
persiaIs that something that can be done directly yet, or are we still waiting for the bug to be resolved (on passing things over the project/distro wall)?14:26
awilkinsIf you dput -f a source package with the same version name will rebuilding it use the new version?14:27
persiaawilkins, dput -f only forces locally.  Soyuz will reject it because it's an already uploaded version.14:28
awilkinsThanks14:28
awilkinsSo I need to hike the version number?14:29
persiaIf you want to upload something to a launchpad-hosted repository, it needs to have a higher version number than is already in that repository (or in a repository on which that repository depends).14:30
awilkinspersia: Righto. I'm not sure why the build failed, to be honest, it failed to apply a patch that seems to work just fine here, so I'm operating under the assumption that I left the file it was patching in a bad state before I uploaded it..14:31
persiaawilkins, You may find it useful to try local builds with sbuild to simulate the environment14:31

=== sayakb_ is now known as sayakb
henningepersia: How about creating a new blueprint in Ubuntu and either copying the content of the current one or refer to it from the new entry?14:40
persiahenninge, I expected that, since the same class of bug applies also to retargeting bugs and questions.14:41
FreeUseris there any launchpad admin here??14:41
persiaPersonally, I *really* don't like that solution, especially because 1) there's no advanced search for blueprints, and 2) there's not a clearly mapped out set of blueprint status values that allow for blueprints that don't get implemented.14:42
persiaI'll discuss with those tracking the blueprint to see if they think it's important enough, but I'd be happy to wait another cycle or two (as long as it can be properly placed for May).14:43
henningeFreeUser: If you have an admin request, please file a question: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion14:43
persiaOn the other hand, if there's no improvements expected to blueprints before May, then I might have to use the workaround anyway.14:44
persia(which is all the more annoying as this is only one of several blueprints I would like to see retargeted)14:44
henningepersia: I do not know the readmap, but I don't expect too much progress on blueprints until may.14:45
FreeUserhenninge: i can't becuase i lost my email account14:45
FreeUserso i can't login there14:45
persiaDo you mean "until may", as in they might be there in may, or "until may" as in "at least not before may, and probably longer"?14:45
henningepersia: I wonder if some-one could do some database-magic to help you ...14:45
persiaIt was in the hope of said DB magic I filed the question :)14:46
henninge;)14:46
henningeI am not sure what the LOSAs tried, exactly.14:46
henningepersia: ^14:46
persiaWould you mind chasing it up with a LOSA one more time?  If it can't be resolved, I'll use a workaround.  If it can, I'll review more carefully what ought be against Ubuntu for May, and submit another question with the list, and a reference to this question for procedure.14:47
henningeFreeUser: You mean "lost" as in "I don't have acces to it anymore" ? ;)14:47
henningepersia: will do14:48
persiahenninge, Thank you.14:48
FreeUserhenninge: yes, i did use bugmenot.com to register my email and didn't bother to remember the adress, because i had it saved in Firefox14:49
FreeUser:p14:50
henningeFreeUser: Please create an account with you new email address first, then file a question with the new account to merge the other account into it.14:52
henningeFreeUser: No need to use something like bugmenot.com on Launchpad ... ;-)14:53
henningepersia: I assume when you talk about "May", you are talking about UDS?15:02
persiaWell, hopefully sufficiently before then to effectively plan schedules, etc.15:05
henningepersia: ;-)15:05
persiaSo, say, being able to manipulate things effectively sometime before the 11th.15:05
persiaGiven that, it would probably have to land in the release in late April.15:06
persiaWhich would mean next cycle, so if there aren't plans, there isn't much time to get them :)15:06

technopagan1Hi! I deleted some files on my local checkout, wanted to grab the actual files from Launchpad again, did bzr update and check and it all dispays that all is fine. But it isn't. There are whole files missing on my local checkout. How di I force a download from Launchpad to overwrite my local files?16:16
beunotechnopagan1, run: bzr status16:16
beunowhat does that tell you?16:16
technopagan1beuno: That there's one file removed + one file unkown16:17
beunotechnopagan1, you can do:  bzr revert16:18
beunoand it will revert the state16:18
technopagan1beuno: But it will not revert the branch on Launchpad to a previous revision, will it?16:19
beunotechnopagan1, this will only affect your working tree16:19
technopagan1beuno: Because I don't want to damage something there16:19
beunoplease do keep in mind that checkouts are bound to their parent, in the case, the launchpad branch16:19
beunoso if you delete and commit, it will do the same in LP16:19
beunoif you don't want that, you should use "bzr branch" instead16:20
beunobut now, it's safe to revert16:20
beunoyou can always go back to a previous revision16:20
technopagan1beuno: So I don't need to use remove $filename to take a file out of the branch. Simply deleting it locally + then commiting is enough?16:20
beunotechnopagan1, well, 'bzr rm FILE' is better16:21
technopagan1beuno: Thank you! It worked!16:23

qsihello, I have renamed some files in my code, how can I make sure the launchpad associates the old names with the new names?17:43
henningeqsi: did you use "bzr rename" (or move, mv) ?17:44
qsihenninge: I didn't do anything yet, but i'm planning to rename, ...17:45
qsiwhat's the best approach?17:45
henningeqsi: oh, "have renamed" made me think differntly ... ;-)17:45
qsihenninge: yeah that's true :)17:46
henningeqsi: If you are talking about a bzr repository, use "bzr rename" to rename them.17:46

henningepersia: I just saw I forgot to tell you:17:51
qsihenninge: ok, I'm curious how that will work out, ... looks logical, so if I want to diff the a version in loggerhead of a file, I can do this between the newly renamed file and a file which has the old name? Or will all files be renamed?17:51
henningepersia: Please file a question with all the blueprints, as you had suggested. They can only be moved with db magic.17:52
henningeqsi: if you "bzr rename" files they are renamed, in that revision.17:52
qsihenninge: but loggerhead will be smart enough to still be able to diff files between different revisions17:53
henningeqsi: loggerhead is just a front end for bzr, so we are talkling bzr here.17:53
henningeqsi: I should think so17:53
qsihenninge: right, so /loggerhead/bzr/17:54
henningeqsi: renaming is just an operation on the file, just like changing the content.17:54
henningeqsi: let me try it out ...17:54
henningeqsi: it is as I said: http://pastebin.com/d32f157e418:00
henningeqsi: works as you suggested ;)18:01
qsihenninge: neat, bzr is quite new to me, but I really start to like it more and more18:02
qsihennigne: thanks for having a look at this for me18:02
henningeqsi: np, I like to try out cases that I don't come accross that often.18:04

jimi_hendrixhi, noob question...i want to contribute a little code to a friends project and he told me to branch it...what console command with bzr would that be?21:39
LarstiQjimi_hendrix: bzr branch <url to project>21:40
LarstiQjimi_hendrix: say, bzr branch lp:bzr-svn/0.5 for the 0.5 series of bzr-svn on launchpad21:40
LarstiQjimi_hendrix: or bzr branch bzr+ssh://host/srv/bzr/product/trunk, or bzr branch ~friend/project, you get the idea :)21:41
jimi_hendrixok21:41
jimi_hendrixdo i need a lp account?21:42
thumperno21:43
thumpernot to branch21:43
thumperalthough bzr will ask you to do a lp-login if you use the lp URL21:43
thumperwhich you don't have to do to get the branch over http21:43
thumperbut if you want to make your code easily accessible to your friend21:44
LarstiQand you don't need it at all if you're not interacting with launchpad21:44
thumperby putting your code back on LP21:44
thumperthen yes, you'll need to login21:44
thumpera login21:44
thumperand an ssh key21:44

jimi_hendrixthumper, also how do i specify what code to branch?21:47
thumperjimi_hendrix: as in the main branch for colist?21:47
jimi_hendrixya21:48
jimi_hendrixwell i think so21:48
thumperjimi_hendrix: do you have bzr installed?21:48
thumperjimi_hendrix: do a `bzr --version`21:48
jimi_hendrixversion 1.3.121:50

thumperjimi_hendrix: I'm using ubuntu too21:54
thumperjimi_hendrix: I wouldn't laugh :)21:54
thumperjimi_hendrix: you really want to get a more recent bzr21:54
thumperjimi_hendrix: are you comfortable editing your apt sources list?21:55
jimi_hendrixthumper, yes21:55
jimi_hendrixi have setup arch by my self :)21:55
thumperhttps://edge.launchpad.net/~bzr/+archive/ppa21:55
thumperjimi_hendrix: add the bzr team's ppa21:55
thumperjimi_hendrix: and upgrade your bzr21:56
thumperjimi_hendrix: it'll make stuff go faster21:56
thumperjimi_hendrix: bzr is nicer than arch :)21:56
jimi_hendrixlol21:57
jimi_hendrixthumper, wheres the apt sources again?  i always forget21:58
thumperjimi_hendrix: /etc/apt/sources.list21:58
* thumper thinks#21:58
thumperjimi_hendrix: or you could use adept-manager (for kde) or synaptic (for gnome)21:58
jimi_hendrixthumper, what should the line read?22:00
thumperjimi_hendrix: which ubuntu do you have22:00

kiko-afkjimi_hendrix, really?22:04
thumperjimi_hendrix: you still need to do the `sudo aptitude upgrade`22:05
jimi_hendrixoh duh22:05
thumperupdate then upgrade22:05
jimi_hendrix1.1222:07
thumpercool22:07
jimi_hendrixok, now back to branching to colist22:07
jimi_hendrixhow do i do it22:07
thumperjimi_hendrix: do you have an LP login?22:07
jimi_hendrixyes22:07
jimi_hendrixjimi_hendrix22:07
thumper`bzr lp-login jimi_hendrix`22:08
thumperthen go to where you want to create the branch22:08
thumperand do `bzr branch lp:colist`22:08
jimi_hendrixwait22:09
jimi_hendrixdo i need to lp-login my email?22:09
jimi_hendrixbecause when i login it asks for my email22:09
thumperjimi_hendrix: you should also do `bzr whoami "your name <your@email.address>"`22:10
thumperjimi_hendrix: you don't seem to have a launchpad account22:11
thumperjimi_hendrix: at least not where you said22:11
jimi_hendrixtry myspot40@gmail.com?22:11
jimi_hendrixcause it asks for my email when i login and i get that22:11
thumperwhen you log in, and click on your name in the top right hand corner, what is the url22:11
jimi_hendrix~myspot4022:12
jimi_hendrixok it says i need to register ssh keys22:13
thumperjimi_hendrix: you should use your gmail address above in the bzr whoami22:14
thumperjimi_hendrix: that way Launchpad can link your commits to your user22:14
thumperjimi_hendrix: do you have an SSH key?22:14
jimi_hendrixno?22:14
thumperjimi_hendrix: you don't actually need it to get the branch22:14
thumperjimi_hendrix: have you done the whoami?22:15
cyberixkiko-afk: When I brand a project22:16
cyberixkiko-afk: I'm asked to give images of three different sizes22:17
cyberixkiko-afk: brand, logo, icon22:17
jimi_hendrixyes22:17
kiko-afkcyberix, yeah, it's because we want them pixel perfect. :)22:17
cyberixkiko-afk: where is the logo sized image displayed22:17
jimi_hendrixit gives my real name though and i dont want that22:18
thumperjimi_hendrix: ooh... kay...22:18
thumperjimi_hendrix: then don't use your real name ?22:19
thumperjimi_hendrix: either way, you can use `bzr branch lp:colist` to get the branch22:19
ronnyhi22:19
thumperjimi_hendrix: and since you don't have an lp-login defined22:19
thumperjimi_hendrix: it should get it over http22:19
jimi_hendrixthumper, uhh it has my hostname and stuff, but i didnt put my real name in my profile22:20
jimi_hendrixso should i log out?22:20
jimi_hendrixthen will it contribute anonymosly?22:20
ronnyanyone of the team here, we just enabled the trac plugin in our trac and would like to know if it works22:20
thumperjimi_hendrix: I don't understand what you are trying to do22:21
rockstarintellectronica, see ronny's comment above22:21
thumperjimi_hendrix: all revisions will have some form of author recorded22:21
thumperjimi_hendrix: this is defined by the whoami command22:21
jimi_hendrixok, how do i change what is outputed by the whoami command22:21
nhandlerjimi_hendrix: bzr whoami 'New Name <email@host>'22:22
thumperjimi_hendrix: `bzr help whoami`22:22
thumperjimi_hendrix: it is helpful to have a real email address that will get to you22:22
thumperjimi_hendrix: it is the purpose of recording it22:22
intellectronicaronny: which project?22:22
intellectronicagmb: ^^^22:22
jimi_hendrixthumper, i rarely check my real email...i probably check my junk one (myspot40@gmail.com) more often than my real one22:23
* gmb catches up22:23
gmbronny: What intellectronica said, first of all :)22:23
jimi_hendrixok22:23
thumperjimi_hendrix: just use whatever22:23
jimi_hendrixand i branch the code with bzr branch lp:colist22:23
ronnyintellectronica: pida22:24
intellectronicagmb: do we still have to reset all existing watches before we start pulling using the plugin?22:24
gmbintellectronica: Ideally, yes.22:24
gmbintellectronica: In this case it's 8 watches.22:25
intellectronicawow, i python ide. i should give this a try22:25
gmbronny, intellectronica: I'll take care of it.22:25
thumperjimi_hendrix: yes22:25
intellectronicagmb: cool, thanks22:25
ronnynice, thanks22:25
jimi_hendrixthumper, do i need to be in the dir with all the stuff? or do i specify what dir to use22:26
thumperjimi_hendrix: if you are in say ~/src22:26
thumperjimi_hendrix: then calling bzr branch lp:colist, will create a directory colist in ~src22:26
thumperjimi_hendrix: or you can give it another parameter to define the location to branch to22:27
jimi_hendrixok22:27
gmbronny: Okay, the plugin appears to be working okay, but Launchpad is having some trouble telling the PIDA Trac which LP bug refers to a given Trac bug. If it's okay with you I'll try to debug this tomorrow (it's 22:55 my time). I've filed this as bug 341997; please subscribe to that for updates.22:56
