KangaroooIm signing the code of conduct.. there's problem.. There is 1 error.          (7, 9, 'No public key')00:52
KangaroooI just made both types of keys.. pgp and ssh00:52

wgrantBut is it the right one?00:55
KangaroooI just made but I made 2 so if second not beeing used then it should be ignored..00:56
Kangarooodo I need to delete from computer the unneeded one?00:57
KangaroooI have 2.. can I pastebin them? list of gpg?00:59
wgrantKangarooo: You can specify the key to use on the gpg commandline.00:59
Kangaroooyeah im now trying to find in google how to delete other one00:59
wgrantDon't delete secret keys unless you're *absolutely* sure.01:00
Kangarooowell I can make new ones..01:01
wgrantYes, but if anybody has ever encrypted anything to a key and you delete it, you01:01
wgrant... you're in trouble.01:01
Kangarooook deleting is not working.. gpg --delete-secret-keys this command deleted but gpg --list-keys stills shows both01:02

Kangarooonow I need to delete signed code of conduct from computer?01:08
wgrantThere's no need to, apart from reducing clutter.01:09
Kangarooowell it contains some key.. ok so then witch files I need to secure and allways keep on computer? .ssh folder and .. where's gpg? couse ill maybe tomorrow reinstall.. so ill need to copy them yes?01:10
wgrant~/.gnupg01:12
wgrantYou need to copy them.01:12

mgedminspecifically, I tried to import gtimelog from svn, which failed, and now the useless ~vcs-imports/gtimelog/trunk branch is cluttering the branch list10:36

savvascool! listing of PPAs as "Other versions of 'gnote' in untrusted archives." in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnote11:40

mgedminquestions I can't find answers to within a 5-minute time limit: what's the naming convention for teams overseeing an open source project?  $projectname?  $projectname-team?  $projectname-dev?11:49
mgedmincan people subscribe to a mailing list without joining a team?11:49
wgrantmgedmin: Generally either $projectname or $projectname-dev. It varies.11:50
wgrantThey can't at the moment.11:50
wgrantI don't know why.11:50
mgedminif I want to have a set of people who can merge changes into the project's mainline branch, and if I want a different set of people subscribed to a mailing list, that means I need two teams?11:50
jmlyes11:51
mgedminor one team + manual approval of merge requests, I suppose11:51
jmlmgedmin, although mailing lists are opt-in11:51
jmlmgedmin, you could have $projectname-dev owning the trunk branch (== approval of merge requests), and a more general mailing list team of which $projectname-dev is a member11:52
savvase.g. $projectname-discussion :)11:53
wgrantI really wish somebody would fix that.11:53
* mgedmin considers google groups instead11:54
savvaswhatever makes you bake dev-cookies hehe11:55
sladenright falks, how many GB of build depencies am I going to need to build/hack on Launchpad in 17 days time?13:32
wgrantsladen: I'm not sure about build-deps, but July 21st is no longer specified.13:33
sladenI'd like to have an idea in advance (zope etc) so that I don't end up trying to download them all over GPRS13:33
sladenwgrant: "oh?"13:34
wgrantAnd you won't just be able to grab the deps easily in advance, as they use zc.buildout.13:34

_AndrewWhen using Hardy I keep getting a warning about updating my bzr branch on launchpad. I also have a laptop with jaunty, if I update my branch on launchpad using bzr from jaunty will my desktop with hardy on still be able to access my bzr branch? In short, is the upgrade backwards compatible14:43
LarstiQ_Andrew: that depends on what you upgrade it to14:46
LarstiQ_Andrew: what versions of bzr are both?14:47
_Andrewon hardy it's 1.3.114:47
_Andrewjaunty is 1.31.114:47
_Andreweh no14:48
_Andrewjaunty is 1.13.114:48
LarstiQ_Andrew: ok, 1.3.1 is a bit oldish. What format is it currently in?14:50
LarstiQ_Andrew: I think 0.92-pack is as far as 1.3 can go.14:51
_Andrewum, it says "Branch format 5" ?14:53
maxb`bzr help current-formats`14:53
_AndrewIt's this branch https://code.launchpad.net/~hardwar/hardwar/trunk14:53
LarstiQ_Andrew: that is old14:57
wgrant_Andrew: Ah, that's ancient.14:57
wgrantSo, packs-0.92 sounds like a good idea.14:57
wgrantFaster, smaller, and compatible with both.14:58

mgedminbzr push to launchpad with no revisions pushed -> 3 seconds15:04

LarstiQmaxb: thanks for the karmic nose bug btw23:38
maxbah, I see. Well, you could automate checking for updates and copying cross PPA with a cron script using launchpadlib23:38
maxbthe nose bug was a bit special :-)23:39
wgrantYep.23:39
BUGabundonose !?23:39
wgrantBUGabundo: A Python testing tool.23:40
LarstiQmaxb: copying subvertpy over is not that hard, I was just wondering since at work we have a reprepro setup that is a bit nicer for composition like this.23:40
wgrantWhich is broken in Karmic.23:40
LarstiQwgrant: which then means the subvertpy ppa build for karmic breaks23:40
BUGabundothanks wgrant23:40
* LarstiQ decided to live with that23:40
wgrantLarstiQ: Ah, lovely.23:41
LarstiQI'd rather not disable the tests, and fixing nose is probably a wee bit more work.23:42
savvasis python-nose something like buildbots?23:42
wgrantLarstiQ: I just fixed Python locally.23:42
LarstiQSo I'll just trust karmic users to be assertive enough to speak up if they consider it a problem23:42
wgrant(after 2.6.31 broke my chroots yesterday)23:43
* LarstiQ nods at wgrant 23:43
wgrantsavvas: No.23:43
LarstiQsavvas: no, something like py.test23:43
wgrantsavvas: It just runs tests when you tell it to.23:43
wgrantRight.23:43
savvasI'll search for it, seems interesting, thanks :)23:43
maxbLarstiQ: actually I have a one-liner workaround23:44
LarstiQsavvas: the main thing nose does is being a test loader (and then runner), it also has some nice fixture support and other plugins23:44
maxbthough upstream should really fix their code more thoroughly23:44
wgrantAnd the ever-useful nose.tools.23:44
savvascool!23:44
LarstiQmaxb: something I could do for http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28691173/buildlog_ubuntu-karmic-i386.subvertpy_0.6.7-1~ppa1~karmic1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz ?23:44
maxblet me throw it into my ppa...23:45
wgrantmaxb: How does the workaround rate on the uploadability scale?23:45
maxbwgrant: Basically the problem is that nose subclasses a unittest class and makes excessively strict assumptions about how the superclass will act. The quick fix is to amend the subclass to match the new behaviour, which isn't entirely unreasonable for karmic. upstream, however. will need to fix it properly such that it works with older pythons too23:47
LarstiQmaxb: does karmic not have older versions?23:48
wgrantmaxb: I'm aware of the problem, I just wondered if yours was a particularly hackish fix. It sounds like it would be OK to upload to Karmic if upstream doesn't come up with a proper one quickly.23:48
wgrantHmm, true.23:48
wgrantWe still have 2.5.23:48
maxbpoint23:48
wgrantAlthough I don't really see why.23:48
maxbI'm sure I could come up with a proper fix in 20 minutes or so23:48
LarstiQwgrant: ehm, for python developers?23:49
maxbthe only reason I'm currently using a hack is because this was literally my first time ever executing nose23:49
wgrantLarstiQ: But lots of the extensions are only built for 2.6, so our 2.5 is fairly useless.23:50
maxbanyway... LarstiQ, if, in nose/core.py, you change "if self.testRunner is None:" to "if self.testRunner is unittest.TextTestRunner:", it'll work fine with karmic's 2.623:50
LarstiQwgrant: I have plenty of stdlib only code, and pure python packages are still less hassle to install than building a python interpreter23:51
LarstiQmaxb: right. Hmm. I'm a bit reluctant to upload a nose package to the bzr ppa just yet.23:52
wgrantLarstiQ: True.23:52
maxbYeah, don't really want ordinary users of the ppa getting it as an upgrade.23:52
maxbThis is why for the mercurial-ppas, I have a separate build-deps ppa23:53
LarstiQmaxb: no one in their right mind installs from that, but you use it to copy binaries from?23:54
maxbActually I use 3 ppas, 'builddeps', 'staging', and 'release'23:55
maxbthe builddeps are in builddeps, staging is configured to include builddeps in its sources.list and I build the packages there, and then I copy them to release once built23:56
maxboh, and actually staging and release are duplicated three times, once for actual releases, once for nightly snapshots of the stable branch, and once for nightly snapshots of the bleeding edge..... it's all a bit intricate :-)23:57
LarstiQmaxb: right, with a tweak I could do that23:57
maxbthe reason I do the whole build-in-staging, promote to release, dance, is that mercurial contains arch-indep and arch-specific binaries - so it becomes uninstallable if the various architecture buildds don't all publish together23:59
