wgrantAre we renaming Launchpad to Launchbounce as well, now?00:25
mwhudsoncodebounce has stopped bouncing, mostly!00:25

mwhudsoni guess this is conservation of bouncyness, or something00:25

wgrantMy main complaint about the new Loggerhead is that it won't even show a revision diff if there's only one file involved.00:26

mwhudson(which is sadly impossible, i think)00:27
wgrantThat would be nice, yes.00:28
mwhudsonpart of the motivation for the change to closed by default is not wanting to DOS the user's browser00:29

persiaspm, Re: pkg-games vs. pkg-games-devel: what options are there towards merging.  I'm not sure I understand LP well enough to understand the nature of the issue.05:17
spmpersia: basically we can't merge a person into a team. AIUI you want the final team to have both email addresses tho?05:18
persiaWell, it's more that I want to concentrate branding in one place.  The "person" actually represents a team.05:19
spmheh. yeah I could see that - totally threw me when it oopsed :-)05:19
persiaSo, I want to be able to have group-type access to resources (e.g. PPA, branches), and also have that group have the "Maintained Packages" list.05:20
persiaI'm not sure what options are available to do that.05:20
spmwell the pkg-games team can have all that. ahh I see the problem: https://edge.launchpad.net/~pkg-games-devel/+related-software05:22
persiaThat's the obvious issue.  The other is "contact this user" on uploads.05:22
* spm nods05:22
persiaAnd there's a host of related social issues, but I think those two are the main ones specifically related to LP interface.05:23
spmhmm. I'll throw this to the LP dev list and see if they have any ideas. i suspect we'll need to do something like convert the 'person' into a team and then merge. But how, if even possible...05:25
persiaI suspect it's part of a general class of issues: due to the way that "people" are imported, I suspect every Debian team has such a pseudo-user.05:26
persiaAs long as the team doesn't want to use PPAs for special awkward backports, or use a shared code repo, this doesn't matter.05:26
persiaOn the other hand, where the team is more closely integrated with Ubuntu, the semantics get odd.05:27
maxbIs there an admin here who would be able to rescore a PPA build for me?05:56
maxbIt failed, so I fixed the dependency issue and asked for a retry, but that means the build score is zero05:56
maxbWith the current contention for builders, it'll never manage to get to the top of the queue05:56
maxbhttps://launchpad.net/~mercurial-stable-snapshots/+archive/staging/+build/987742 is the build05:56
jameshwon't its score go up as it ages?06:02
maxbI don't think scores work like that06:03
lifelesshow do you think they work ?06:05
maxbI think scores are assigned statically at build record creation time according to a formula involving component, pocket, urgency, etc. - and are reset to zero for a retried build06:09
maxbHi, by the way :-)06:10
maxbWe meet again, a long way from cygsetup :-)06:10
lifelesshi :)06:11
lifelessyup, the internet is a small small world06:11
lifelessI'm reasonably sure delay is factored in to prevent starvation06:11
lifelessI'm not quite sure that is implemented06:11

ubottuUbuntu bug 194265 in soyuz "Page for build doesn't say where in the queue it is" [Low,Triaged]06:13
maxbI'm not sure what I'm supposed to learn from that bug?06:15
lifelessthat you are suffering a common confusion06:17
maxboh no, I'm not confused :-)06:17
lifelessIIRC the internals correctly the way it works is that score is a component in  the queueing process but not the only one06:18
lifelessthat is, you don't need to rescore to ensure the build will happen06:18
lifelessonly to make it happen faster06:18
lifelessanyhow, a sysadmin will be around in ~ 30 or so06:18
maxbMy understanding based on observation is that the build will happen, but only after the queue is empty of builds with higher scores06:19
lifelessI don't think any soyuz devs are on right now06:20
lifelessor we could check ;)06:20
maxbMy build isn't going anywhere, it can wait :-)06:20
spmkirkland: yeah - to the best of my knowledge and searching there is no team alias - or if there is, it's well hidden in the UI :-/06:42
wgrantmaxb: The build score does increase over time, but the others do too. The point of the build score is to determine the ordering, so it would make sense that it only builds once those builds with higher scores have built.07:01
wgrantIt's probably not optimal that a retry starts at 0, particularly as one can DoS the buildds equally well just by making lots of uploads.07:02
wgrant(that is, if they need any help to be DoSed, which they certainly don't at the moment)07:02
maxbHmm. Is the time-based adjustment visible in the UI?07:03
wgrantYes.07:03
maxbOh. I seem to have only ever seen a small set of specific score numbers07:04
wgrantAt least, it used to be... I haven't paid attention for a while.07:05
maxbUnless the time based factor is extreme, it's going to take ages for a zero-based retry to get up to the several thousand of a normal build07:06
wgrantRight.07:06
wgrantSo in the current build queue climate, a retried build will probably never get built.07:06
* maxb will continue to lurk and wait for an admin07:07
savvasI'd just leave it there, go to an all-night concert and come back :P07:11
savvasscores can be edited?07:12
wgrantBy ~(launchpad-buildd-)admins, yes.07:13
savvasmaxb: I suppose you already have, but why don't you ask on answers.l.n ? :)07:14
jameshwgrant might also be able to edit them if he's discovered a vulnerability and not reported it07:16
wgrantjamesh: I've reported all of the vulnerabilities I've discovered, actually.07:17
jameshthank you :)07:17
wgrantAll except the one particularly ironic one was fixed pretty quickly.07:17
wgrantThat one's still not fixed :(07:17
wgrantAlthough it's not close to the criticality of the others.07:18
jameshI think the biggest security vulnerability I discovered in Launchpad was the librarian07:18
savvasso how is the build score formed? square root of what attributes? :)07:18
jameshwe fixed that by moving it to its own domain07:18
wgrantjamesh: Yes, that would have been a nasty one.07:19
jameshiirc, the equivalent problem still exists in bugzilla07:19
wgrantsavvas: A combination of pocket, component, archive, urgency, section (IIRC), and magic dust.07:19
wgrantI should probably go hunting for more vulnerabilities at some point, given my prior horrifying successes.07:20
savvashm..07:21
savvasdid anyone notice a wishlist bug to distribute the "all" architecture packages to be built on an available machine and not to wait for i386?07:22
wgrantsavvas: Yes. But it wasn't well taken.07:22
wgrantBut an alternative should be happening soon - pooling the i386, amd64 and lpia buildds.07:22
wgrantSo each of those three archs will be able to build on three times as many machines.07:23
wgrantWhich includes arch-indep builds.07:23
savvasah ok07:23
savvasI suppose they replied in a similar way as in bug 350760 ?:P07:24

jameshmaxb: it used to be on librarian.launchpad.net.  Your session cookie is sent to all https *.launchpad.net sites.07:36
jameshyou can upload text/html attachments for bugs to the librarian07:36
jameshhtml documents can contain javascript that can read cookies07:36
maxbOh!07:36
jameshit's even worse for bugzilla, since the attachments get served from the same domain07:37
jameshyou can load up any form you want in an iframe read its DOM, make changes and submit07:37
wgrantFortunately Bugzilla doesn't store private code, or have access to push code out to millions of machines.07:38
jameshand there is nothing XSRF protection can do about it07:38
jameshso you could e.g. write an attachment that searches for all security bugs the user has access to and subscribe a third party account to each.07:39

crevettehello10:34
crevetteI've a small question, how it is computed the Build Score I see in my PPA about a build?10:35
crevetteand what does it mean?10:35
wgrantThis question is coming up a bit lately.10:35
wgrantMaybe cprov can give a real answer.10:35
crevettethis is quite urgent, I have it for weeks, I just thought I could come here to see you and ask :)10:36
crevette+not quite urgent10:36
crevette:)10:36
cprovuhm, I'm preparing a description for that with mrevell, should be done soon, but I can explain that quickly.10:36
wgrantcrevette: cprov said a while ago 'messy heuristic on the build archive (PPA, PRIMARY, PARTNER), source component, urgency and age in queue (basically)'10:36
wgrantAh, here he is. even better.10:36
mrevellhey cprov, let's have a call about that today, if you have time10:37
wgrantAlthough the pocket is in there somewhere too.10:37
cprovmrevell: sure10:37
cprovwgrant: yes, pockets are prioritized in this order: SECURITY, UPDATES, RELEASE, BACKPORTS and PROPOSED.10:38
cprovwgrant: but that's about to change based on https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/soyuz/+bug/37249110:38
ubottuUbuntu bug 372491 in soyuz "proposed packages have lower build priority than build packages" [Medium,Triaged]10:38
wgrantcprov: I just saw that you'd revealed that table in a bug.10:38
crevetteI guess build score is a kind of priority to prioritize ubuntu build vs PPA ?10:38
wgrantRight, I read that bugmail about a minute ago.10:38
wgrantcrevette: It's the number used to order the builds.10:38
cprovcrevette: PPA and ubuntu builds are already isolated, since they build in different farms10:38
cprovcrevette: it's used for prioritizing builds within those 2 domains10:39
crevetteahokay, I don't know the launchpad platform at all, I just use it as reporter and builder10:39
wgrantOoh, London is awake, and today is Wednesday. Do we get buildds soon?10:40
cprov:)10:40
cprovhopefully yes,  the PPA build ETA is getting more and more embarrassing each day.10:41
wgrantAnd it has been 2.5 weeks.10:41
crevettewgrant, you said (PPA, PRIMARY, PARTNER) earlier, so it means canonical sells build time to companies ?10:43
wgrantcrevette: I was quoting cprov, but: PPA is obvious, PRIMARY is the Ubuntu archive, and PARTNER is Canonical's partner archive (archive.canonical.com)10:43
wgrantBut I'd imagine that Canonical partners can probably purchase private PPAs to use.10:44
wgrantI don't know, though.10:44
cprovwgrant: that's right, the support comes as a 'package', when you buy a P3A (storage, build time, privacy, etc)10:45
wgrantcprov: Is the build queue disaster going to happen again next release? I've been considering replacing the repository we use for deployments with a PPA, but 16+ hour build queue times make that a bit awkward.10:52
cprovwgrant: if we continue with the same number of builders, yes, it will happen again. But we are discussing how we can keep more builders working full time in PPA farm.10:53
cprovwgrant: so, it will not happen in the mid-term.10:54
wgrantcprov: OK, thanks.10:54

wgrantcprov: I know PPAs are meant to look up the orig.tar.gz in the PRIMARY archive if it's missing, but should it really reject because a different one was uploaded?12:52
cprovwgrant: yes, otherwise the lookup will not work as expected in the next attempt.12:53
wgrantcprov: Mmmm, true.12:53
wgrantia: So, yes, you should probably just use the Ubuntu one.12:54
wgrantia: And work out how you managed to get the same file with a different hash.12:54
rippstypically when I'm building an upstream source package, I use the vcs version in the orig.tar and changelog. (0.18.1+git090504), the package is called package_0.18.1+git090504 and the orig.tar is a called package_0.18.1+git090504.orig.tar.gz12:54
cprovwgrant: it's almost always caused by re-compressing it (gzip has timestamps in its header)12:54
wgrantripps: If it's a VCS snapshot, sure.12:54
wgrantcprov: I'm aware, but I wonder why that would have been recompressed.12:55
wgrantUnless it was a bz2 to start with, which some upstreams unfortunately do.12:55

cprovwgrant: they become immediately available, I don't have to do anything.13:14
wgrantcprov: Oh, right, that automatic rescuing code landed last cycle?13:15
cprovwgrant: yes, the code for rescuing jobs assigned to unavailable builders ...13:15
wgrantHm, no, sandpaperfig retains a build although it has been deactivated for at least 15 minutes.13:15
cprovwgrant: builders from ubuntu-enablements become available by a external mechanism.13:16
wgrantcprov: I said that you would have to rescue the trapped builds, not the builders.13:18
cprovoh, right, but even that isn't working 100 %, see sandpaperfig ...13:19
wgrantcprov: Right. I initially forgot that code had landed, then remembered, but then noticed that it wasn't working. That rapid set of realisations confused things.13:20

cprovwgrant: but the fact is that after this code change builders don't need to be put in manual before going anymore13:24
wgrantThe status doesn't seem to be shown anywhere any more.13:25
wgrantRight.13:25
maxbWhat does "enablement" mean, anyway?13:28
wgrantSaturating bandwidth, by the sound of things...13:29
wgrantOr just trying to fit in an inappropriately marketing-like word.13:29
wgrantSo, the buildds do seem to have at least settled now. To just two more than previously, though, with one of them being on the architecture that wasn't actually problematic.13:33
maxbHmm. Well, it's shaved a couple of hours off my estimated time-to-build, but that's not going to empty the queue any time soon13:41

deryckMaWaLe, run that via a command line to read the bzr help info on those topics.13:47
deryckMaWaLe, but basically, running this for me -- bzr launchpad-login deryck -- will tell bzr about me on launchpad, where deryck is my user id on launchpad.13:48
deryckMaWaLe, is that what you are asking, how to use bzr with your lp login?13:48

MaWaLewgrant: you've got it ;)13:52
wgrantMaWaLe: bzr whoami "Your Name <your@email.address>"13:53
wgrantThe critical bit is the email address - that has to match one of yours on Launchpad, or you won't get the karma or other attribution.13:53
MaWaLei made it but it didn't affect my karma?13:53
wgrantThe name doesn't really matter.13:53
