trothigarbdmurray, so even if the bug status is new I should leave it?00:00
bdmurraywell, I changed it to Triaged.  In Progress or Triaged would be fine.00:01
hggdhdtchen, ping02:55
dtchenhggdh: pong02:57
hggdhhi dtchen, two questions, (1) I have been trying to report a PA bug (high CPU utilisation), but ubuntu-bug/apport refused to deal with it02:58
hggdh(2) there are some bugs, seemingly similar, on PA on malloc/free issues; should I leave them open/new, or can I dup them to the oldest?02:58
hggdhoh, and thank you for the class02:59
dtchenhggdh: they should all be fixed with the snapshot that's currently building in the ppa03:00
dtchenhggdh: however, i'm not at a dev machine, so i can't verify whether the one malloc issue i've been able to trigger is fixed03:00
dtchenhggdh: so, please leave them open; i have them all tagged locally03:01
hggdhwill do, thanks03:01
dtchenhggdh: and, np03:01

ccmI ran into the problem that it seems I don't have a cookie named MOIN*09:13
thekornhmm ok09:14
thekornlet me check09:14
ccmmaybe that is related to the now openid stuff?09:14
thekornno, once you logged in into the wiki there should be a MOIN cookie09:14
thekornthat's at least how it worked in the past09:15
ccmthekorn: okay, i will check that again09:15
thekornccm, hugday init --user thekorn --cookie ~/.mozilla/firefox/anwhxcak.default/cookies.sqlite   works for me09:17

seb128I doubt anybody manage to read all the desktop-bugs emails anyway17:40
seb128pedro_, ^ opinion?17:41
pedro_seb128, bdmurray that's ok for me17:43
pedro_bdmurray, could you subscribe the team to libgweather and gtksourceview2  as well?17:46
pedro_most of the time we reassign bugs to those products, there's not a lot of people filing the bugs directly there, but anyways just in case17:47
bdmurraypedro_: done17:50
pedro_bdmurray, thanks!17:50
mac_vbdmurray: hi... a few ayatana bugs have been lost in a black hole :( , this was due to recent naming change of ayatana > the ayatana project... bugs which existed in ayatana alone are now inaccessible , any way we could recover them?17:58
mac_vthe bugs were invalidated to facilitate the name change17:59
bdmurraymac_v: I'm not really following.  Can you give me an example bug or the exact names of the projects?18:02

mac_vi dint follow?18:04
bdmurrayclick "+ Also affects project".  type in mane of the new ayatana project and you should be good to go18:05
bdmurrays/mane/name/18:05
mac_vbdmurray: the thing is , bugs which existed in ayatana alone , are now *not* accessible , since it points to DEAD-ayatana18:05
mac_vbdmurray: just click on the lp link above , you'll see what i mean18:06
bdmurraymac_v: what's the name of the right project?18:06
mac_vbdmurray: hmm... now , i dont think ayatana is accepting bugs , but they can be changed back to papercuts18:07

bdmurrayon stagigng18:08
mac_vbdmurray: \o/ how did you do that?18:09
mac_vdid you add the papercuts?18:10
mac_vbdmurray: so basically such dead projects can be accessed from the .staging. site?18:13
bdmurrayI clicked also affects project beneath the tasks on the bug page and then chose the right project name18:13
bdmurrayI don't understand how the project is "dead"18:13
bdmurraythe initial bug link you gave me was fine, I was just using staging as an example to show how to do it w/o really modifying the bug report18:14
mac_vbdmurray: "Launchpad bug --- in dead-ayatana" , see the ubottu response18:14
bdmurraythey just renamed the project to dead-ayatana it doesn't mean anything18:14
mac_voh!18:14
mac_vbdmurray: i thought that since the "ayatana" was closed and started again as the "The Ayatana project" , the old one was named dead ;p18:15

bdmurrayAnAnt: okay, its been a bit since I've done this18:33
mac_vbdmurray: why is it not allowing to just change the project? is says > Not Found Object: , name: u'dead-ayatana'18:37
bdmurraymac_v: how are you changing it?18:37
mac_vi'm just trying to switch the project , instead of using the "Also affects"18:38
mac_vwont that work now?18:38
bdmurrayI don't believe changing projects works.  I'm pretty sure there is a bug about that.  That's why I said also affects project.18:39
mac_vchanging projects , doesnt work only for this , i just change a few other normal bugs , using that :( ,its just not allowing ayatana :(18:40
bdmurrayare you sure it was changing projects and not changing packages?18:40
mac_vbdmurray: hmm... i change the hundred papercuts , to NULL , those are projects or packages?18:41

jcastrobdmurray: created and linked18:47
bdmurraymac_v: you'd be better off asking about OOPSes in #launchpad18:48
mac_vhehe , ok ;)18:48
bdmurrayjcastro: right but how did you do it?18:48
jcastrooh, you have to create an entirely new project18:51
jcastroso from the lp front page, create new project18:51
jcastrothen you have to go find the upstream home page, get the license right, etc.18:51
jcastroafter it's in lp then it allows you to link bugs to it18:53
bdmurrayso its still quite some work then18:53
jcastroyes, but we've got the major ones18:54
jcastrousually when I do it now is when an upstream breaks up into things, so from like "foo" to "foo-data" "foo-frontend" or something18:54
bdmurrayjcastro: okay, thanks for the help!18:56
jcastrono worries!18:57
jcastroI haven't had to make one in a while!18:57
greg-gjcastro: those can't be auto-created based off of the packaging information? :) But I suppose we've already passed the point where not many new projects need to be created in LP19:01
jcastroI /think/ maybe the first time they did it19:02
jcastroat the beginning I spent alot of time making them19:02
jcastroIMO it should let you link to any bug tracker and make a watch, but it's designed to not let you do that.19:03
jcastroit makes you fill in all this stuff for some kind of meta-launchpad take-over-the-world reason19:03
jcastro*shrug*19:04
bdmurrayjcastro: Ideally this should be part of the adding a package to Ubuntu process too19:09
micahgbdmurray: can we get the ls-duplicate script into the package ubuntu-qa-tools?19:10

^arky^hi, question why so many unlinked bugs get assigned to yelp?20:27
^arky^Is it coz report bug using help system or something ?20:28
bdmurray^arky^: yes a lot of people use help report a problem from yelp, but I think pedro_ is working on a patch for that20:29
^arky^good to hear20:29
bdmurrayhggdh: do you know when the people.ubuntu to people.canonical change happened?20:29

^arky^yesterday I volunteered to be upstream contact for gnome-orca20:30
pedro_^arky^, right, i've created a small apport hook for that case ; bug 41815620:31
ubot4Launchpad bug 418156 in yelp "Yelp Apport Hook" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/41815620:31
pedro_^arky^, most of the reporters on yelp think that the app is for asking for help rather than search it by yourself on the docs20:31
pedro_so i hope that those small set of questions will help to solve that20:31
^arky^yeah, perhaps you should merge it with apport if the patch is complete, it would really bring the volume of 'assignment-needed' bugs20:32
pedro_i don't have the rights to merge it ;-)20:33
pedro_it should be reviewed and applied to yelp instead though20:33
jcastro^arky^: there's no seperate field for upstream contacts yet, so subscribing to the bugs should be sufficient for now20:33
^arky^yup you are right20:33
^arky^thanks jcastro , is there way that I subscribe to all the bugs in a package by default20:34

^arky^pedro_: the hooks works fine to me, just one suggest perhaps we need to rephrase the return message for request for help20:41

^arky^Perhaps it would be really wonderful if someone from bugsquad wants to take me under their wing and mentor me20:48
