[00:19] <Nafallo> hi. anyone around for changing the repo of a vcs-import?
[00:50] <wgrant> beuno: Doing a side-by-side comparison of old vs. new bug pages, the sprite changes have moved some of the icons a few pixels out of their ideal locations. They've less padding in some cases, more in others, and are off centre in places too (particularly person links).
[00:54] <LCID_Fire> Is anyone able to explain the differences of debian binary to source packages?
[00:55] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: Source packages are built to produce binary packages.
[00:55] <wgrant> Or do you mean technical differences?
[00:56] <LCID_Fire> wgrant: in detail I mean why are scripts not allowed in source packages? There is no way (AFAIK) to generate them...
[00:58] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: What do you mean?
[00:59] <wgrant> There are normally lots of scripts in a source package. But what in particular are you talking about?
[01:00] <LCID_Fire> wgrant: I have a package which is IMO "source". PPA complains it is "binary" due to scripts included. And I just don't get why, how, ...
[01:00] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: Erm... that has nothing to do with scripts.
[01:00] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: Can you pastebin the error message?
[01:03] <LCID_Fire> It says: "Upload rejected because it contains binary packages" - it fucks up somewhere in the flow of autotools, debianize and what not - I am so $%&§ confused
[01:03] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: How did you build the package?
[01:03] <wgrant> And how did you run dput?
[01:04] <LCID_Fire> "git-buildpackage --git-ignore-new" and then dput ../*.changes
[01:04] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: What is before the .changes?
[01:04] <LCID_Fire> wgrant: e.g. areca_7.1.2_amd64
[01:05] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: The _amd64 is your problem. You are uploading an amd64 binary package, as well as a source package.
[01:05] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: Try adding -S to the git-buildpackage options, to force it to only build source.
[01:05] <wgrant> Then upload the _source.changes.
[01:06] <LCID_Fire> there is no _source.changes
[01:06] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: There is if you build with -S...
[01:09] <LCID_Fire> wgrant: you are right - and I am pissed that -S is not documented :(
[01:09] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: It's documented in all of the documentation that I know of.
[01:09] <wgrant> https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#Building in particular.
[01:10] <wgrant> But it's also in the manpages of the tools that build the packages.
[01:10] <LCID_Fire> man git-buildpackage does not say anything
[01:10] <wgrant> git-buildpackages is a wrapper, so I wouldn't expect it to.
[01:10] <LCID_Fire> I would
[01:11] <wgrant> It just passes all of the options through to debuild or dpkg-buildpackage, so that would be pretty strange.
[01:11] <wgrant> Given that its manpage would have to track dpkg-buildpackage changes.
[01:11] <LCID_Fire> btw: should I wonder when the generated tar.gz is the same as before?
[01:11] <wgrant> tar.gz, or orig.tar.gz?
[01:12] <LCID_Fire> there is no orig.tar.gz
[01:12] <wgrant> Did you intend to build a native package?
[01:13] <LCID_Fire> I just want to upload the $%&§ package to ppa - and it turns out to be an epic struggle
[01:13] <wgrant> (also, from git-buildpackage's manpage:
[01:13] <wgrant>        · Call debuild(1) (or the application specified via --git-builder) with arguments instructing it to ignore Git meta-data in the diff.gz, passing along all arguments given to git-buildpackage that don’t start with --git-.
[01:13] <wgrant> )
[01:13] <wgrant> LCID_Fire: Nobody ever said packaging was trivial, I don't believe.
[01:13] <LCID_Fire> wgrant: yes but it should not be that hard!
[01:14] <wgrant> Anyway, this is well into the realm of #ubuntu-motu, rather than here.
[01:14] <wgrant> And I need to have breakfast.
[01:14] <LCID_Fire> ok, thanks so far
[01:18] <LCID_Fire> in man git-buildpackage  it says: git-buildpackage will, * Build an orig.tar.gz if it doesn't exist.
[01:24] <cody-somerville> The download icon overlaps the text associated with it now
[01:24] <cody-somerville> as seen with lp #389749
[01:35] <wgrant> cody-somerville: There are lots of sprite-related regressions - that one is known and fixed.
[02:17] <etank> anyone reporting issues with registering gpg keys in launchpad?
[02:18] <etank> i entered my fingerprint about 5 hours ago and never got the email to decrypt to finish the process
[02:19] <etank> i even set a different email address for it to try to send to
[02:19] <etank> still nothing yet
[02:44] <etank> any ideas?
[02:47] <wgrant> etank: A few other people have reported delayed emails.
[02:47] <etank> how long of a delay?
[02:48] <wgrant> etank: The other person who complained about OpenPGP confirmation emails said he didn't have it after half an hour, and never reported that it had come...
[02:49] <etank> hmm. thats no good
[02:49] <etank> i know that i waited for 5 hours and still no email
[02:49] <wgrant> etank: Ask a question at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion, perhaps.
[02:49] <etank> i updated a question there a few minutes ago
[02:50] <wgrant> Where?
[02:53] <etank> one sec
[02:54] <jml> SamB, at 2am, I never have any idea :)
[02:56] <etank> its an old on but https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/28068
[02:57] <wgrant> etank: It's really not a good idea to hijack questions like that. I'd suggest asking a new one, or it's likely to get lost.
[02:57] <etank> i felt that the question was somewhat relevant
[02:57] <etank> i can ask a new one though
[02:58] <wgrant> It's not really relevant, and it is closed, so it's never going to get looked at.
[02:59] <SamB> jml: oh, you're one of those crazy australlians who's completely on the wrong side of the clock ?
[03:00]  * wgrant crushes SamB with midday.

[03:17] <etank> guess i will let it sit until tomorrow and see what happens.
[05:52] <MTecknology> How can I change the project a branch is associated with?
[05:53] <MTecknology> do I need to make a new banch?
[05:56] <wgrant> MTecknology: I believe the UI for moving branches was removed ~2.2.5. You might be able to do it through the API, but I'm not sure.
[05:57] <MTecknology> alrighty. I can just branch/push/delete
[05:57] <MTecknology> do you know why it was pulled?
[05:57] <wgrant> No.
[05:58] <wgrant> But my guess is that it was probably something to do with the UI needing to be more complex to accomodate source package branches.
[05:58] <wgrant> And since it's such a rare action...
[05:58] <MTecknology> ya. I just noticed a lot of branches I have are assigned to the wrong project
[05:59] <MTecknology> gr, I thought tinying things up was going to be easy but I made a mess
[06:02] <wgrant> MTecknology: You can do it easily through the API, if you want.
[06:02] <wgrant> (I just tried it)
[06:03] <MTecknology> how do I do that?
[06:03] <MTecknology> somehow https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-drupal-theme-devs/ubuntu-drupal-theme/6.x is showing up under https://code.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-drupal-releases
[06:03] <wgrant> MTecknology: Do you know how to use launchpadlib?
[06:03] <MTecknology> no
[06:05] <wgrant> MTecknology: Install python-launchpadlib, and see https://help.launchpad.net/API/launchpadlib#Getting%20started. Once you get past the auth stage, I'll tell you what to do.
[06:05] <MTecknology> thanks
[06:05] <MTecknology> wgrant: any ideas why it's showing up like that?
[06:06] <wgrant> MTecknology: Make sure you replace STAGING with EDGE in that example
[06:06] <wgrant> MTecknology: It's because it's set as the series branch.
[06:06] <MTecknology> oh
[06:07] <wgrant> https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-drupal-releases/6.x/+edit
[06:07] <MTecknology> thanks :)
[06:07] <wgrant> Change the branch there to something else.
[06:07] <wgrant> And it will go away.
[06:07] <MTecknology> :D
[06:19] <MTecknology> wgrant: why can't we remove blueprints?
[06:19] <wgrant> MTecknology: No idea.
[06:20] <MTecknology> can I attach it to a person instead of a project?
[06:20] <wgrant> A blueprint? No. That wouldn't make sense.
[06:20] <MTecknology> I just want to get rid of it :P
[06:21] <wgrant> Mark it Obsolete.
[06:21] <MTecknology> kirkland: ({)
[06:21] <MTecknology> wrong channel - that wasn't bitlbee :P
[06:23] <MTecknology> kirkland: sorry
[06:26] <MTecknology> wgrant: If I retarget a blueprint for a different project, will the karma go with it?
[06:28] <wgrant> MTecknology: I don't think so, but I couldn't be sure.
[06:29] <MTecknology> wgrant: k, I just wanted to know if the karma would be attached to the other project. I have no idea how karma is actually assigned
[06:31] <MTecknology> anyway, time for work
[06:31] <MTecknology> wgrant: thanks for the help :)
[06:31] <wgrant> MTecknology: No problem.
[06:33] <MTecknology> wgrant: last question - is it possible to rename a project?
[06:33] <MTecknology> or only teams?
[06:33] <wgrant> MTecknology: An admin can rename the project for you.
[06:34] <MTecknology> you mean a rubber ducky?
[06:34] <MTecknology> :P
[06:34] <wgrant> Yes.
[06:34] <MTecknology> I'll file a request when I get off work
[06:34] <MTecknology> thanks again
[06:34] <wgrant> np
[06:37] <MTecknology> wgrant: nvm - I asked it.
[06:37] <MTecknology> I'm sure it'll be you to take care of it since you're around now. Thanks in advance if you do. Time to run
[06:43] <wgrant> MTecknology: Er, I have no such power.
[08:37] <nellery> is it possible to change the key a PPA is signed with?
[08:58] <lifeless> nellery: I imagine the sysadmins can, if there is a problem with it.
[08:58] <lifeless> nellery: if you actually mean 'can you choose the key', the answer is no.
[08:59] <nellery> lifeless: thanks
[08:59] <lifeless> you can however, sign the key that is used to sign PPA builds
[09:00] <lifeless> if you want to certify it. This is effectively the same as it being your key [except you can't sign things with it yourself]
[12:35] <lifeless> james_w: ping; package branches where are they on lp?
[12:35] <lifeless> jml: if perchance you're around
[13:08] <etank> still no email to finish the process to verify my gpg key on launchpad
[13:08] <etank> now it has been 10 hours
[14:41] <maxb> "verify"?
[16:30] <MTecknology> Can a Driver of a project add upload files to a series?
[16:32] <MTecknology> allenap: do you know?
[16:37] <beuno> MTecknology, you mean the driver you set in bugs?
[16:37] <MTecknology> here - https://edge.launchpad.net/drupal-ubuntu-countdown/+edit-people
[16:38] <MTecknology> beuno: I want to know is the driver will be able to add a download file to a series. Reading that it looks like they can make the series, but it doesn't explain that to where my tired mind can comprehend
[16:39] <beuno> MTecknology, they should be able yes, otherwsie its a bug
[16:39] <MTecknology> thanks :D
[16:39] <MTecknology> that's exactly what I need them to be able to do
[16:39] <MTecknology> I want to give the ubuntu-website team some control over that
[18:44] <jwbee> hi
