[01:54] <Turl> hi
[01:54] <Turl> I uploaded a package to my ppa, but the amd64 build seems to have stuck
[01:55] <Turl> it's 2 hours and still didn't finish
[01:55] <Turl> https://edge.launchpad.net/~turl/+archive/ppa/+build/952860
[01:57] <wgrant> Turl: Has https://launchpad.net/builders/bohrium changed recently?
[01:57] <wgrant> It looks like it's very nearly done.
[01:57] <wgrant> Oh.
[01:58] <wgrant> infinity stole the builder.
[01:58] <wgrant> Turl: That buildd has been taken down for some kind of maintenance.
[01:59] <wgrant> But for some reason it didn't relinquish your build.
[02:00] <Turl> Status      Disabled for Enablement
[02:00] <Turl> :P
[02:00] <Turl> wgrant: can you cancel that build and restart it or something?
[02:07] <wgrant> Turl: I've no special privileges. Only a sysadmin can fix it.
[02:10] <wgrant> Turl: You might be best to reupload.
[02:21] <Turl> ok wgrant, thanks anyway
[03:48] <ub3rst4r> does anyone what the url is to mirror a branch thats hosted on sourceforge on to launchpad?
[03:49] <wgrant> ub3rst4r: What type of branch?
[03:49] <ub3rst4r> bazaar
[03:50] <wgrant> ub3rst4r: So, you should head over to your project, hit the 'Code' tab, and find the 'Register branch' link in the top right.
[03:51] <ub3rst4r> wgrant ya i want to mirror the sourceforge code on to launchpad
[03:52] <wgrant> ub3rst4r: You can then select to create a mirrored branch, and give it the URL to the SF.net branch.
[03:52] <ub3rst4r> ya how does the url work?
[03:53] <Peng_> What URL? SourceForge's URL?
[03:53] <ub3rst4r> bzr://PROJECTNAME.bzr.sourceforge.net/bzrroot/PROJECTNAME
[03:53] <ub3rst4r> does that work?
[03:53] <wgrant> ub3rst4r: Just give it the URL to the branch, like you would if you checked it out.
[03:53] <wgrant> That should work.
[03:54] <ub3rst4r> k
[03:54] <ub3rst4r> sorry, i wasnt sure how it got the password...
[03:54] <ub3rst4r> just remembered it just needs to read it
[03:54] <wgrant> Right.
[03:55] <ub3rst4r> ty
[03:55] <wgrant> Wow. Geocities.
[04:00] <jml> I remember them.
[04:02] <jml> angelfire! tripod! cgi! frames! under construction animated gifs!
[04:02] <wgrant> Marquees!
[04:08] <ub3rst4r> hi, launchpad isnt letting me mirror the branch
[04:08] <ub3rst4r> it says "Launchpad cannot mirror this branch because its URL uses sftp or bzr+ssh. "
[04:09] <wgrant> ub3rst4r: Is that error message not clear enough?
[04:09] <ub3rst4r> how are you suppose to mirror something from http?
[04:09] <wgrant> Give it an http:// or bzr:// URL.
[04:10] <ub3rst4r> bzr doesnt work
[04:10] <Peng_> bzr://? Not bzr+ssh://?
[04:11] <ub3rst4r> bzr+ssh works not bzr:://
[04:11] <Peng_> LP can't mirror from bzr+ssh, as the error message says.
[04:11] <ub3rst4r> but no it doesnt cus it has to be ftp or http
[04:11]  * Peng_ is completely confused now
[04:12] <wgrant> bzr:// does work.
[04:12] <wgrant> SF.net serves on bzr://
[04:12] <ub3rst4r> here was it says
[04:12] <ub3rst4r> https://code.launchpad.net/~nick58/lilregcleaner/mirror
[04:13] <wgrant> bzr, not bzr+ssh
[04:13] <Peng_> ub3rst4r: You gave it a bzr+ssh:// URL. Give it an http:// or bzr:// URL.
[04:13] <ub3rst4r> bzr doesnt work
[04:13] <wgrant> What do you mean?
[04:13] <Peng_> ub3rst4r: bzr://littlecleaner.bzr.sourceforge.net/bzrroot/littlecleaner works.
[04:13] <ub3rst4r> it says bzr is unrecongized
[04:14] <wgrant> Ah.
[04:14] <ub3rst4r> he URI scheme "bzr" is not allowed. Only URIs with the following schemes may be used: bzr+ssh, ftp, http, https, sftp
[04:14]  * wgrant blames jml. Any ideas, jml?
[04:14] <wgrant> That certainly looks like a Launchpad bug.
[04:14] <wgrant> And an SF.net bug for not serving over HTTP like everybody else.
[04:14] <ub3rst4r> then it says it says it cant mirror it
[04:15] <Peng_> Heh.
[04:15] <Peng_> So it accepts bzr+ssh URLs even though it can't use them, but rejects bzr? Very smart. :)
[04:16] <wgrant> It needs to recognise bzr+ssh and sftp for Remote branches.
[04:16] <jml> what
[04:16] <Peng_> Does it recognize bzr+http or nosmart+ URLs?
[04:16] <wgrant> jml: One cannot register a branch in Launchpad with a bzr:// URL.
[04:16] <ub3rst4r> stupid.
[04:16] <jml> no, you can't
[04:17] <jml> there's a bug about that, iirc.
[04:17] <wgrant> I suppose it needs firewall poking, so it's not too trivial.
[04:18] <ub3rst4r> i dont think sf has http access for its bazaar
[04:19] <ub3rst4r> oh well
[04:21] <Peng_> How much effort does it take to push something like this through the sysadmins?
[04:25] <ub3rst4r> the http doesnt work either
[04:56] <jml> Peng_: there's code changes as well as network changes required
[04:57] <jml> Peng_: pushing something like this doesn't take much effort at all -- our sysadmins are awesome
[04:58] <Peng_> Oh, good.
[08:46] <alkisg> Hi, I've uploaded a package into my PPA and it shows as "Supported by Canonical" in synaptic. What am I doing wrong? Is it the package version numbering (0.9.3.2-1)? Synaptic screenshot: http://users.sch.gr/alkisg/temp/synaptic.png
[08:52] <wgrant> alkisg: That's a Synaptic bug.
[08:52] <alkisg> wgrant: <relieved> thanks!!!
[08:54] <alkisg> wgrant: If I have a greek filename with an english extension in my package (e.g. δοκιμή.glo), the .deb gets generated correctly, but later on `sudo apt-get install my-package` crashes! This doesn't happen if the filename has all greek characters (e.g. δοκιμή.γλώσσα). What could be the cause, where should I report something like this?
[08:58] <wgrant> alkisg: How does it crash?
[08:59] <alkisg> wgrant: it produces a stack dump, and leaves some /usr/share/myapp/temp files behind
[08:59] <alkisg> I get the same result with dpkg -i mypackage.deb
[08:59] <wgrant> alkisg: File a bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+filebug
[08:59] <alkisg> wgrant: thanks a lot :)
[11:08] <maarons> Hi, is bazaar.launchpad.net down?
[11:27] <kiko> shouldn't be -- let me check
[11:28] <kiko> maarons, works for me.
[11:28] <kiko> hmm
[11:32] <kiko> yeah, it wfm
[11:33] <thekorn_> hi, someone arround who has the power to give bazaar.launchpad.net a kick?
[11:34] <thekorn_> pages like http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~python-screenrecorder-dev/python-screenrecorder/trunk/files are not working here
[11:34] <thekorn_> hmm, now it worked
[11:51] <maarons> works now, nice=)
[11:52] <kiko> it's the sort of app that only works when it wants to
[11:52] <kiko> but mwh has his own ideas about that
[12:24] <maxb> zirconium and kahikatea both seem to be in need of a kick
[13:07] <savvas> 1 milestone = 1 release right?
[13:09] <wgrant> savvas: Yes, but a milestone doesn't have to have a release.
[13:10] <savvas> ok, thanks :)
[13:10] <savvas> I thought I could make something like 0.1* milestone and 0.1.0 release
[13:10] <savvas> and then 0.1.1 release :P
[13:11] <wgrant> A 0.1* milestone doesn't make sense.
[13:11] <wgrant> What is your use-case?
[13:13] <savvas> the web 2.0 has a star next to the newly created milestone
[13:13] <savvas> I went to https://edge.launchpad.net/surl/trunk/+addrelease
[13:14] <savvas> and created a new release, when it was created, the "select milestone" dropbox had 0.1.0* in it
[13:14] <savvas> I got confused by that asterisk I guess :)
[13:15] <savvas> but it's all clear now, every release needs its own milestone
[13:16] <wgrant> Ah.
[13:16] <savvas> * and created a new release = and created a new milestone
[13:17] <wgrant> Or converting an existing milestone into a release.
[13:17] <savvas> I'll have to try that in staging, good thing we have it for testing purposes hehe
[13:18] <wgrant> Yep. Staging is useful for this sort of thing.
[15:23] <mdke> anyone able to diagnose an "oops" for me?
[15:23] <mdke> OOPS-1204EB110
[15:24] <cody-somerville> mdke, I imagine you got that when you tried to decline all the pending ubuntumembers?
[15:24] <mdke> cody-somerville: yes
[15:25] <cody-somerville> mdke, Yes, I was just writing a reply to your e-mail.
[15:26] <cody-somerville> Unfortunately thats not going to work due to the large number of users you're declining at once.
[15:27] <mdke> cody-somerville: do you work on Launchpad nowadays?
[15:28] <mdke> if that's definitely the reason for the oops, I guess I need to file a bug
[15:28] <cody-somerville> mdke, I work for Canonical's OEM Solutions Team and that requires me to hack here and there on Launchpad as a part of my job.
[15:29] <mdke> cody-somerville: ok, so you can see the oops logs
[15:29] <cody-somerville> I can yes. Still waiting for the OOPs log to sync to devpad though.
[15:30] <mdke> ok
[15:31] <cody-somerville> It is indeed a timeout error
[15:31] <cody-somerville> And unfortunately I highly doubt the launchpad team is going to be able to optimize this to be able to handle declining almost a thousand members in one shot.
[15:32]  * wgrant suggests the API.
[15:32] <mdke> yes, it told me that on the page. But it suggested that if I try again, it might work
[15:32] <cody-somerville> You could indeed try the API, mdke
[15:33] <mdke> I'll have to learn what an API is though
[15:34] <cody-somerville> However, it would probably be best for everyone if we just asked the launchpad OSA team to do the database edit like I suggested in my e-mail. After all, there isn't really any benefit in sending those members an e-mail anymore anyhow as its been a number of months so anyone who is legitimately interested in applying would already have gotten the news.
[15:35] <mdke> hmm
[15:35] <cody-somerville> 904 e-mails multiplied by all the admins of the team + 904  is a lot of e-mail
[15:36] <cody-somerville> I don't imagine it would make the launchpad OSA team very happy
[15:36] <mdke> yes, it would be sensible for Launchpad just to send one email to admins arising out of that function
[15:36] <mdke> I don't know if that is already the position or not
[15:39] <cody-somerville> Indeed
[15:39] <mdke> so what does OSA stand for?
[15:39] <cody-somerville> Operational Systems Administrator
[15:41] <cody-somerville> mdke, If you file an answer against launchpad asking for the database edit, I'm sure the launchpad team will be more than happy to facilitate you.
[15:42] <mdke> I'll do that
[15:42] <mdke> thanks cody-somerville
[15:43] <cody-somerville> No problem
[15:58] <jeroen-> people I have a privacy problem
[15:59] <jeroen-> My full name is listed on launchpad (in a translation) and can be linked to my nichname
[15:59] <jeroen-> nickname
[15:59] <jeroen-> can someone please assist me in solving this problem?
[16:00] <hyperair> jeroen-: are you that afraid of having people know who you are?
[16:00] <hyperair> jeroen-: i officially gave up hiding the links between my real name and my nickname the moment i began packaging.
[16:01] <jeroen-> hyperair: well for two reasons
[16:01] <jeroen-> I also use this nickname somewhere else
[16:01] <jeroen-> and I have been stalked a few times in the past
[16:02] <hyperair> did you give the stalker a reason to stalk you?
[16:02] <hyperair> and seriously, you shouldn't have put your real name anywhere then if you were worried about being stalked
[16:02] <cody-somerville> hyperair, Comments like that aren't helpful, thanks.
[16:02] <hyperair> right.
[16:02] <hyperair> my bad
[16:02] <cody-somerville> jeroen-, Please file a question against the launchpad product.
[16:03] <jeroen-> hyperair: thats not your problem
[16:03] <jeroen-> and your issue
[16:03] <jeroen-> I don't want my name over there
[16:03] <jeroen-> its an old translations where it is in
[16:04] <savvas> jeroen-: a translation? one translation or more? how many programs involved?
[16:05] <jeroen-> 1
[16:05] <jeroen-> 2 lines
[16:05] <savvas> should be easy to fix then with a launchpad question :)
[16:06] <jeroen-> well I just want change my name in that old translation - is this so diffucult
[16:07] <savvas> it kind of depends on the release
[16:07] <rowinggolfer> having problems comitting today... getting odd errors.
[16:07] <rowinggolfer> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/153506/
[16:07] <jeroen-> well I can change my nickname, that solves 50% of the problem
[16:07] <rowinggolfer> I get asked to unlock... then the command fails.
[16:07] <rowinggolfer> what to do please?
[16:08] <cody-somerville> rowinggolfer, do bzr break-lock lp:~rowinggolfer/openmolar/trunk
[16:08] <hyperair> jeroen-: why 50% only?
[16:09] <rowinggolfer> cody-somerville: thanks dude. Fixed.
[16:09] <jeroen-> hyperair: I just told you
[16:09] <savvas> jeroen-: do you know in which release it is? and which package? if it's a stable release, I don't know how much success you would have into getting your name removal applied, as that would require to make a new package for it
[16:09] <jeroen-> savvas: I will check if it is still used
[16:12] <savvas> jeroen-: for example, if it's in ubuntu gutsy (7.04), you shouldn't have to worry about it, as its end-of-life date is today - the packages are removed :)
[16:12] <jeroen-> 2006
[16:13] <jeroen-> 05
[16:13] <jeroen-> ok than
[16:13] <jeroen-> I changed my name
[16:13] <jeroen-> thanks savvas
[16:13] <hyperair> savvas: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[16:13] <hyperair> it isn't removed
[16:13] <savvas> argh
[16:13] <hyperair> but it'll take quite some effort to track down that
[16:13] <savvas> I forgot about that
[16:14] <LarstiQ> jeroen-: did you follow cody-somerville's advise about filing a question on the launchpad product?
[16:15] <jeroen-> LarstiQ: not yet
[16:15] <jeroen-> but proberly it is not needed
[16:15] <savvas> the end-of-life dates are here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
[16:17] <jeroen-> June 2009
[16:17] <jeroen-> well great
[16:17] <jeroen-> savvas: so all string will be deleted
[16:17] <jeroen-> right away?
[16:18] <savvas> if you still see it, file a question against launchpad: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion
[16:18] <savvas> I don't know if it's right away, but old release packages go to http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ as hyperair pointed out :)
[16:18] <hyperair> and i don't think they're updated either
[16:19] <jeroen-> are those questions not public?
[16:19]  * rowinggolfer of to listen to launchpod while mowing the lawn :)
[16:20] <savvas> questions in launchpad are public, yes
[16:20] <savvas> I'd just wait and let it fade away, in june there won't be any dapper drake packages :)
[16:21] <savvas> (for desktop that is?)
[16:23] <jeroen-> savvas: ok than I just let it fade away
