qballhi all. I am having a problem with building packages with ppa (and pbuilder) ..   amd64 and lpia builds fail, they hang on automake...   I tried pbuilder and coudl reproduce, it hangs on  "automake --gnu -f --add-missing" it uses 100% cpu and 34% memory (that is 2.7 gig!)10:04

alkisgHi, is this the right place to ask how often does translations.launchpad.net sync with the upstream translations?15:30
alkisgAnd a similar one, if I revert a lot of "changed in launchpad" messages to their packaged versions, will they be sync'ed to the latest upstream version in time for Jaunty?15:36
* beuno nudges danilos 15:36
danilosalkisg: how often translations are synced depends on the project; am I right to assume that you are talking about Ubuntu?15:37
alkisgYes15:37
danilosalkisg: Ubuntu translations are synced with every package upload, so it completely depends on what tarballs does upstream release, and when they get packaged for Ubuntu; we don't have control of that, but you can always ask Ubuntu packagers if you have specific concerns15:38
danilosalkisg: that should also answer your question: they will be synced with latest upstream version if that upstream version is packaged in Ubuntu15:38
alkisgI'm in both Ubuntu translators (greek) team and the gnome el team, and there are about 200 projects that have changed some translations in launchpad - something that they shouldn't have. Now we want to cancel all these changes (more than 10000 messages - I hope we can find a way to automate this) and have them updated with the latest upstream versions in time for Jaunty15:39
alkisgSo now I'm clicking the messages one by one and then upload the "published version" of the .po file for each package; this is very time consuming...15:39
alkisg(clicking the "Packaged Version" for all messages "Changed in launchpad", I mean)15:40
danilosalkisg: right, that's the right way to do it today15:40
alkisgCan I skip the "upload published .po file" step?15:41
danilosalkisg: for gnome, I'd say most likely "yes"15:41
alkisgThere are also KDE packages, and other packages like pidgin15:41
danilosalkisg: talk to seb128 (Ubuntu GNOME packager) if you want to know for sure if he'll package another round of GNOME tarballs15:41
danilosalkisg: as I said, it all depends on Ubuntu packagers; we can't directly import upstream translations since sometimes they are for different versions of the software15:42
danilosalkisg: so, we import what Ubuntu packages give us15:43
alkisgdanilos: thanks... I have a last question, but I'm having difficulties expressing it, let me try...15:43
danilosalkisg: for KDE, I believe there will be another upstream import in early April, but that's only the stuff I heard15:43
alkisgSo the safe way would be to manually upload the published packages...15:44
MTecknologyIs there any way to search for users on LP based on email?15:46
alkisgdanilos: A question said with an example: someone back in 2006 changed a string for the "pidgin" package from "A" (the packaged version) to "B" (the launchpad version). Later on, the upstream translator changed "A" to "C". My problem is that when I click on the radio button to cancel the launchpad translation and use the packaged version, "A" gets used instead of "C"...15:46
alkisgEven if the change from "A" to "C" happened in 2007 :(15:46
danilosalkisg: that should not happen15:47
danilosalkisg: do you have an example of that?15:47
cprovMTecknology: yes, https://edge.launchpad.net/people/?name=cprov%40canonical.com&searchfor=all15:48
alkisgYes, with the fast-user-switching-applet greek translation, but I just uploaded the published version and it fixed the problem...15:48
danilosalkisg: as far as the "safe way", it's probably easier to ask Ubuntu guys who are doing the packaging, but if you are fine with re-uploading stuff15:49
danilosalkisg: if that fixed the problem, it indicates there's no bug in our code, since packaged PO files go through exactly the same code path15:49
alkisgAll these changes would need about a week, so if I could open a help ticket somewhere to be done automatically it would be really nice :)15:49
=== cprov is now known as cprov-lunch
danilosalkisg: it's most likely that Ubuntu package is using an old PO file (all packages always use released tarballs, not from eg. svn or similar repositories)15:50
danilosalkisg: you can open a ticket on https://answers.launchpad.net/rosetta/, but so close to the deadline, it's hard to promise anything; and, we'd need several Ubuntu Greek translators from the official team to approve the request there15:51
alkisgdanilos: I think I've seen it happen with strings from 2006... anyway, I'll check again. If I verify that there's a bug, where should I report it?15:51
danilosalkisg: depends... if a ubuntu package source tarball package contains the correct PO file, then it's a bug in 'rosetta'; if not, it's a bug in ubuntu package15:52
alkisgdanilos: thanks a lot, I'll contact the rest of the team members and open a ticket with the list of packages that we want to cancel the launchpad translations.15:52
danilosalkisg: or sometimes, just a po-revision-date has not been updated in upstream PO file15:53
danilosalkisg: cool, we'll try to do it for Jaunty release, but if not, it will be available for the next langpack update at least15:53
alkisgYeah, the problem was that many people wanted to help with the translations but did it in the wrong place. :( Thanks again, danilos.15:54
MTecknologycprov-lunch: thanks15:54
alkisgdanilos: a last question, please, is there somewhere a list of packages that have ubuntu-specific messages? Like fast-user-switching applet, d-i etc?15:56
gnomefreakhow long does it normally take to remove packages from PPA?15:57
gnomefreakbefore i can upload a lower version15:58
bigjoolsyou can't ever upload lower versions15:59
danilosalkisg: unfortunately, no, there isn't; there was one that Adi Roiban collected, though (he's a Romanian translator; I believe he posted about that on ubuntu-translators mailing list)16:02
alkisgThanks, I'll try to find that.16:02
danilosadiroiban: did I remember correctly that you have a list of packages in ubuntu with modified strings? (to help out alkisg)16:02
=== matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch

=== cprov-lunch is now known as cprov
fab2gmb: I lost in it the flow I guess16:45
gmbfab2: So, the problem we have is that when I do the export from SourceForge I get... zero data.16:45
gmbI suspect it's because SourceForge has updated its bugtracker16:45
gmbAnd the exporter we're using is a bit of a kludge16:46
fab2gmb: holy shit..16:46
gmbfab2: We're investigating.16:46
gmbYea.16:46
gmbh16:46
fab2if we start using the LP trackers, the migration will not remove the current messages?16:46
gmbfab2: Could you have a looksie and see if there's any option to create an export from sourceforge as an XML file? ISTR they used to offer that option16:46
gmbfab2: As in the stuff that's already in LP?16:47
fab2gmb: yeah16:47
gmbfab2: No, the migration won't touch anything that's there already.16:47
cprovgnomefreak: you currently can upload a lower version after the current is removed, it just have to be new. But don't count on that working for a long time (because it's sort of non-sense) and be aware that it might affect people using your PPA.16:48
gmbfab2: If SourceForge lets you do a dump of the trackers to XML it might be quicker for us to write an XSL transform to convert that into Launchpad Bug Interchange format. Traditionally we've not done that because we had our exporter, but since that's not working...16:48
gnomefreakcprov: thanks i found a way around it16:48
