BUGabundohttps://code.edge.launchpad.net/~bugabundo/network-manager/mobile-broadband-provider-info/+register-merge00:36
BUGabundonow I need to request a merge to the correct place00:36
BUGabundoI tried it earlier, but asac said I used the wrong place00:37
BUGabundoit seems, that following LP suggestion it try to merge it to NM and not MBPI00:37
BUGabundoand searching for it, only returns my branch00:38
wgrantBUGabundo: I think your branch is in the wrong project...00:39
wgrantYou probably want mobile-broadband-provider-info, not network-manager.00:39
BUGabundoyes00:39
BUGabundoI branched mbpi00:40
wgrantAnd put it in network-manager..?00:40
BUGabundoat least I think I did00:40
BUGabundoI don't know00:40
BUGabundo1st time here...00:40
wgrantYou branched from the right place.00:40
wgrantBut you pushed to the wrong URL.00:40
BUGabundook00:40
wgrantHit the edit button on your branch.00:40
BUGabundoI pushed it to the address asac and jkakar gave me00:40
wgrantAnd reassign it to the right project.00:40
wgrantNo you didn't.00:41
wgrantYou pushed it to an address that they wouldn't have given to you, because it didn't work.00:41
BUGabundook fixed https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~bugabundo/network-manager/mobile-broadband-provider-info/+edit00:41
BUGabundonow the proj says mbpi00:41
wgrantNow try merging.00:42
BUGabundoit seems to work00:43
BUGabundohow is reviewer?00:43
BUGabundodo I leave networkmanager?00:43
wgrantThat I can't tell you.00:43

BUGabundohttps://code.edge.launchpad.net/~bugabundo/mobile-broadband-provider-info/mobile-broadband-provider-info/+merge/521300:44
BUGabundohope its okay now00:44
wgrantI would have named the branch differently, but that's not bad.00:44
BUGabundo(12:27:04 AM) asac: it should have been: ~network-manager/mobile-broadband-provider-info/...00:44
wgrantHe means ~bugabundo, not ~network-manager.00:45
wgrantYou can't write to ~network-manager.00:45
BUGabundoahh00:45

mrooneyI created a release from a milestone, but now I seem stuck with the milestone description shoved BEFORE my release description, and unformatted even! Is there a way to...fix this?00:53
beunomrooney, filing a bug00:55
beunoI will chase it down on monday00:55
wgrantI don't particularly like the way the milestone<->release merging was landed half-baked, with a pretty confusing UI remaining.00:56
mrooneyit seems very neat in theory, though it took me a solid 5 minutes to find the release button in the milestone01:02
mrooneyI kept looking in the series01:02
mrooneybeuno: just file it against launchpad?01:03
mrooneywgrant: yeah, now I have to modify my milestone to merge correctly with the release since I need to release before monday01:03
mrooneyand then save that somewhere to put back as the milestone description once it is fixed01:04
wgrantAm I the only one to be finding LP *really* *really* slow today?01:07

luke-jrbut they're in competition, so preference cannot be given02:42

magciusIs there a way to close a Launchpad bug through bzr from the commit message?13:31
kikomagcius, not sure, let me check13:34
LarstiQmagcius: from the bzr side, use commit --fixes, don't know what Launchpad does to handle that.13:48
magciusLarstiQ, I'm using DVC for emacs, and I don't think it has capabilities to support that.13:48
wgrantThat will link the bug and branch, but won't actually close the bug (it's a difficult thing to work out in which circumstances it should be closed, but I hear it's being worked on)13:50
foolanohi guys, one quick question. Is there any way to take a look to the stats of downloaded packages from a PPA? It'd be great for those who use them as "official" repostirories for our projects to see what packages are more popular and so on13:51
magciuswgrant, oh whoops, I meant set as resolved.13:52
wgrantmagcius: resolved == closed13:52
magciuswgrant, I thought Fix Committed was a resolution.13:52
wgrantIt's not a final state.13:53
wgrantBut it is the right state for this, you're right.13:53
wgrant(Fix Committed once it's in trunk, Fix Released once it's in a release)13:53
LarstiQor Fix Committed when it is in a public branch, Fix Released when it's in trunk13:54
magciusI was wondering about a commit message because DVC only has mechanisms for a commit message.13:54
wgrantThat doesn't make sense, I don't think.13:54
wgrantmagcius: Hm? What about the commit message?13:55
magciuswgrant, is there a way to set status from a commit message?13:55
wgrantmagcius: No, overloading commit messages with metadata is a bad idea.13:55
wgrantmagcius: bzr supports a special revision property which specified bugs closed.13:55
LarstiQwgrant: it does, in the absence of Fix Merged13:56
wgrantLarstiQ: But the fix is not committed in that project just because Joe Random's branch has the fix.13:56
magciusHmmph.13:56
wgrantThe correct solution was to link a branch with the status set to Fix Availab.e13:58
wgrantBut that was removed - presumably it was replaced with merge proposals.13:58
LarstiQwgrant: Bazaar's bug workflow predates all that. When there is a revision available that fixes the bug, it's Fix Committed to us.14:00
wgrantLarstiQ: Interesting... but bzr uses Bundle Buggy, doesn't it?14:00
LarstiQwgrant: for keeping track of what still needs to be reviewed/sent to pqm, yes14:01
wgrantLarstiQ: I mean, it's not fully doing things the Launchpad Way®.14:01
LarstiQwgrant: true.14:01
magciusWait, is PQM deployed on Launchpad?14:02
LarstiQmagcius: nope.14:03
LarstiQmagcius: you can combine tarmac with launchpad though.14:03
magciusSo where is PQM used?14:03
wgrantMost of Canonical's projects seem to use it.14:04
LarstiQas well as some none-Canonical projects.14:04
magciusMind explaining what a few of these things are?14:05
magciusThey seem to overlap a bit.14:05
LarstiQmagcius: that's right14:05
LarstiQmagcius: the Bazaar project has been using Bundle Buggy (http://bundlebuggy.aaronbentley.com/) and PQM long before similar features in Launchpad became available.14:06
LarstiQmagcius: PQM acts as an auomated gatekeeper, http://bazaar-vcs.org/Workflows14:07
magciusOkay.14:09
LarstiQmagcius: do you have specific questions?14:10
* LarstiQ isn't entirely awake yet14:10
magciusYou mentioned Tarmac... that looks like PQM + Bundle Buggy14:10
LarstiQmagcius: that's the gist of it. A pro is that it integrates more with Launchpad. A con is that it integrates more with Launchpad :)14:13
LarstiQand well, PQM is a bit hard to set up14:13
wgrantJust a bit.14:13
magciusIs bzr still using BB + PQM or have they moved over to LP.14:14
LarstiQmagcius: still using BB + PQM14:14
LarstiQuse LP for bugs and code hosting14:14

james_wdoing it in response to someone asking on IRC isn't very safe21:22

Mr_Grieves|This is libc6 I want to downgrades so everything depends on it :)23:43
SnovaOh dear... why?23:44
UGeI guess to ignore dependencies you need to use dpkg with some force option23:44
Mr_Grieves|Because I'm an idiot :) I added a bad repo and it upgraded libc6 (along with a few hundred other packages...) to faulty versions.23:44
