magciusIs there a way to tell when my package is going to be built?01:10
wgrantmagcius: It will give you an estimate on the build page - you can get there by expanding the package on your PPA page, and clicking on the architecture in which you are interested.01:19
magcius6 hours :(01:20
wgrantmagcius: Things normally start building in a matter of seconds, but it's all a bit off today because of Ubuntu 9.04.01:22
magciuswgrant, ah.01:22
wgrantmagcius: If you look at https://launchpad.net/builders, you can see the backlog.01:22
magciusI'm curious why it's off today because of Ubuntu 9.04?01:23
magciusAre they repurposing the builders?01:23
spmyes01:24
wgrantmagcius: There are normally about three times as many builders. I've heard they're now serving release downlodas.01:24
wgrantAnd lots of the remaining builders were down for several hours earlier, because of Launchpad load problems.01:24
magciusAh, okay.01:24
magciusThey already have tons of mirrors.01:24
wgrantThere's never enough, though.01:25
magciusWhy can't they do that "Select Best Site" thing in Software Sources in update-manager?01:25
wgrantAll of the local mirrors collapse much more quickly than Canonical's.01:25
spmwgrant: aye. from what little I've seen, some of the mirrors were flatlining their connections. whee.01:26
wgrantspm: Yep. We somehow need to encourage more torrents.01:26
wgrantspm: And work out a good solution for distributed archive mirrors...01:26
magciuswgrant, why not have the update-manager use torrents?01:26
wgrantmagcius: That would be ideal, and apt-p2p does that, but it can't really be installed by default.01:27
magciusAnd actually, when I used the Select Best Site option, those weren't timing out.01:28
magciusIs there a way to make a PPA apply to more than one version of Ubuntu?01:46
Nafallomagcius: yes. upload source packages for different versions of ubuntu.01:47
magciusNafallo, :(01:47
magciusNafallo, is there a tool to modify debian/control, run debuild and dput them?01:48
Nafallonot that I know of that does it automatically (thank god)01:48
magciusNafallo, so you do it manually?01:49
magciusNafallo, why is that a "thank god"?01:49
Nafallobecause I'm not a fan of automatisation when it comes to things that should be quality controlled.01:50

OdyXHi. I have a bug in a Debian package (kdesudo) for which Launchpad is upstream (aka kdesudo is developed on the Launchpad). How should I forward the bug ? Simple copy-paste in Launchpad ?07:32
noodles775gmb: ^^^ ?07:53
gmbHmm. Interesting one.07:54
gmbOdyX: So, to be clear, there's no record of the bug in Launchpad at the moment, right?07:54
gmbAnd the fix for the bug needs to happen in the upstream, which tracks its bugs using LP?07:55
AnAntHello, I got several packages hosted in the same branch: lp:sabily-artwork08:37
AnAntis it possible to migrate each package to a separate branch, keeping along the history ?08:38
OdyXgmb: exactly.08:41
OdyXwell.. there is "sort of" the same bug... but not on same version... This bug seems specific to actual Debian unstable (I did try it in Ubuntu qemu and no fail)08:41
AnAnthmm08:55
mptAnAnt, you'd probably get a quicker answer to your question in #bzr09:01
AnAntok09:01
mptBut one possibility that occurs to me is making a branch of your original branch for each package, and then in each of those, deleting the files that don't belong09:02
rowinggolferare there any good gui frontends for bzr?09:16
AnAntthatnks09:16
AnAntthanks09:16
balorAre there any plans for lp to support git in the near future?09:21
beunobalor, yes, git imports should happen soon-ish09:22
balorbeuno: Great.  Thanks.09:22
gmbOdyX: Hmm. okay. So, I think your best solution in this case is to file the bug against the project in Launchpad and include a link to the original report. It's then up to the maintainers of the project to decide where the bug actually is.10:09
OdyXgmb: Okay. Clear. I am kdesudo maintainer for Debian btw ;)10:09
gmbOdyX: Ok. So if the upstream maintainer (I'm assuming that's someone else :)) decides it's not a bug in kdesudo upstream then you can track the bug in DebBugs and Launchpad can simply track its status. LP should automatically start doing that when you include the link to the original bug in your new report.10:11

james_w-march=pentium sounds odd20:10

james_wyou can look at DEB_BUILD_ARCH in debian/rules to set that conditionally20:11
karimjames_w: it doesnt work20:19
karimjames_w: this is a sub make file, I don't call it directly20:20
james_wbut if you call it with CFLAGS then it will override what is in there20:20
james_wunless the top-level makefile doesn't use $(MAKE) in which case you should fix it20:21
karimjames_w: I guess I should go with no cpu options20:22
karimin fact if I choose nothing, it's equivalent for gcc to choose -march=DEB_BUILD_ARCH ?20:22
