cyberixI cannot figure out how to report bugs in 3.002:56
wgrantcyberix: You're looking at https://bugs.launchpad.net/, aren't you?02:56
cyberixWell, I have been bouncing around all over the site02:56
wgrantcyberix: https://launchpad.net/PROJECT wasn't one of the places you ended up?02:57
cyberixI go to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu02:58

cyberixI end up at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs02:58

cyberixI scimmed it trough02:58
wgrant(this is an Ubuntu-specific thing, nothing to do with LP 3.0)02:58
RenatoSilvatranslations export are said to be daily, but they're not being. Not even after pushing changes to the po and pot files02:58
cyberixIt seems I need to make some software crash so I get to reporting a bug02:59
wgrantcyberix: That page thoroughly describes all methods of filing an Ubuntu bug, in order of preference.02:59
wgrantcyberix: Only one method on that page requires it....02:59
RenatoSilvaalso fyi milestone deletion is not working03:00
cyberixI was going to file a [needs-packaging] bug03:00
cyberixI cannot see which category that would fit in03:01
wgrantcyberix: Yes, that is a problem. See the "Filing bugs at Launchpad.net" section.03:01
wgrantAgain, this is an Ubuntu policy decision, and not anything to do with the LP 3.0 UI changes.03:01
cyberixSo I have to link the bug to some existing package03:02

MTecknologyit might just be somebody infected w/ a virus trying to reply to every email addy - which is why I think it might be good for you to be aware of03:49

Peng_One of my mirrored branches is in a slightly odd state: 1.) It failed to mirror last time -- network issue or somesuch. 2.) It says "Updating branch...", "processing changes" and all. It seems broken branches do that now. 3.) The given repository format is out-of-date. It changed recently. https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mnordhoff/loggerhead/pretty-url04:26
Peng_Is there anything bug-worthy about that?04:26
wgrantPeng_: 2) is known.04:29
wgrantI think 3) should fix itself when the mirror happens, but I'm not entirely sure.04:29
Peng_wgrant: <304:33
Peng_The thing is, the repo format changed before the last mirror. But it was 1.9 -> 2a, so it was affected by that bug that was recently fixed.04:34
Peng_So it might take a while for the format change to sink in. Shrug.04:34
Peng_Pizza! Bye. :P04:35
ScottKwgrant: You wouldn't happen to know if there's anyone around that could look into why suddenly I can't accept packages anymore via the LP UI (suddenly like in the last 10 minute)?04:50
KIAazehi, I'm getting the following error when trying to upload with dput: Connection failed, aborting. Check your network [Errno 111] Connection refused. Any ideas?04:50
ScottKOK, Got one.  Maybe kdebase-workspace is just too big.04:51
KIAaze?04:52
ScottKKIAaze: Different conversation, not related to you.04:53
KIAazeto be able to upload to my PPA, I just need a GPG key registered at launchpad, no?05:02
alkisg1Older builds are deleted from launchpad, right? E.g. a ppa now has "package 1.5", and 3 months before it had "package 1.3", could I somehow get the binaries for package 1.3?05:06
Peng_Am I a terrible person if I use OpenSSH's "ControlMaster" to leave a connection open to LP all the time?06:02
alkisgI can copy packages from the Ubuntu primary archive to my PPA from here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+copy-packages?field.series_filter=karmic&field.name_filter=PACKAGE_YOU_WANT06:15

dreamcat4Hello. I want to add my project's mailinglist automatically for any bug notifications10:23
dreamcat4but would like to make sure they don't see my user account's emails about other things10:24
dreamcat4?10:24
wgrantdreamcat4: Why do you want the emails to go to the mailing list? I find it's generally a better idea to let people subscribe themselves.10:25
dreamcat4because it's where we discuss our bugs10:25
wgrantDon't you discuss your bugs on the bug?10:25
dreamcat4we just want others to see a new bug come in (who aren't on launchpad but subscribe to highload-php-en mailinglist)10:26
dreamcat4otherwise they generally wouldn't see it10:27
wgrantAh, so this isn't a Launchpad mailing list?10:27

pro-rsofthm, what should I do to fix it then?14:30
av`#ubuntu-motu is your channel now :)14:31
wgrantpro-rsoft: Give the '-sa' option to debuild.14:31
ScottKav`: Not particularly, unless he's trying to upload to the Ubuntu archive.14:31
av`ScottK, debuild flags are not the right things to discuss on #launchpad, I guess14:32
ScottKav`: PPA packaging isn't the right thing to discuss on #ubuntu-motu.14:32
av`ScottK, debuild is not strictly related to PPA, it's a general packaging tool14:32
av`ScottK, I can use debuild also outside PPA14:33
ScottKRight, but #ubuntu-motu isn't the channel for everyone in the work that feels like using Debian packaging tools.14:33
av`don't know which channel would be fine for such issues then14:33
ScottKIt's a problem that the Launchpad team doesn't support their users then.14:34
av`yep14:34
av`pro-rsoft, start doing your work on a clean tree and follow wgrant's suggestion14:35

ulysses__hello17:42
ulysses__I want to report a bug in Ubuntu, but the https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug redirects me to the Ubuntu Wiki (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs)17:43
ulysses__is this a bug, or this is a feature?17:52
LarstiQulysses__: feature17:53
ulysses__...17:54
ulysses__thanks17:54
LarstiQulysses__: Ubuntu has a bug reporting procedure they want followed17:54
=== sale_ is now known as sale
ulysses__so then I should live with them, however it is very strange17:57
LarstiQwhy is that strange?17:57
ulysses__before launchpad 3.0 released, I opened the https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug page, choosed the right package from the search form, and then wrote the reprt17:59
* LarstiQ doesn't know ubuntu enough to say what changed17:59
ulysses__not an Ubuntu bug, it's in the kubuntu-docs package, some small mistake only:)18:00
* ulysses__ translates kubuntu-docs to hungarian18:00
napsyHello. I've imported my project from github. Later I cloned the branch from launchpad using bzr but now I can't push. I get a "readonly transport" eror. Is this fixable without re-cloning the branch?18:04
LarstiQnapsy: yes18:04
napsyhow?18:04
LarstiQnapsy: you're likely trying to push to http://, instead of bzr+ssh:// or sftp://18:04
napsyUsing saved push location: bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports/gsfm/trunk/18:05
napsythis is what bzr push prints out18:05
napsyI did set up my launchpad username and imported my ssh public key18:06
LarstiQah18:06
LarstiQ~vcs-imports is not writable to your user18:06
napsyhum so what can I do now?18:06
LarstiQnapsy: you can push to lp:~napsy/gsfm/trunk instead18:07
napsycool it works18:08
napsyBut I got this "Created new stacked branch referring to /~vcs-imports/gsfm/trunk"18:08
napsywhat does it mean?18:08
LarstiQnapsy: do you intend to switch development from github to launchpad? Or should vcs-imports continue pulling across?18:08
napsyI intend to switch to launchpad18:08
LarstiQnapsy: that means it hasn't uploaded _all_ revisions to ~napsy/gsfm/trunk, but instead it knows to look in ~vcs-imports/gsfm/trunk for revisions it doesn't have itself18:09
LarstiQnapsy: sorta like hardlinking18:09
napsyok18:09
napsyhow do I now unlink my branch from vcs-imports?18:10
LarstiQgood question18:11
* LarstiQ needs to find a webbrowser18:11
LarstiQnapsy: there is a --no-stack on bzr push I think for creating branches18:12
napsyhm ok hm18:13
napsyI have now two branches, one is trunk and the other is luka-napotnik/gsfm/trunk with my latest code18:14
napsycan I delete the trunk branch and rename the other one?18:14
LarstiQnapsy: yup18:15
napsyhum apperently I can't delete trunk18:18
LarstiQyou should be able to afaik18:20
LarstiQbut you can at least rename it?18:20
napsyYes I can rename the branch. But I want only one official lp:gsfm/trunk branc not "personal" branch18:22
LarstiQright18:24
LarstiQthe official trunk is managed by setting the series focus18:24
LarstiQyou can select a different branch for it there18:24

SiDihi there22:20
SiDii cant seem to be able to report a bug in an ubuntu package in the new launchpad22:20
SiDiit keeps redirecting me to the wiki22:20
ulysses__a moment22:20
ulysses__it was changed, so you should open this link: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/PACKAGENAME/+filebug?no-redirect22:21
ulysses__replace PACKAGENAME with the name of the package, what you want to report22:21
SiDiulysses__: thanks22:22
SiDithats quite a weird practice, though22:22
ulysses__yeah, I find it also strange:P22:22
cyberixIt will probably help with the amount of incomming bugs22:23
cyberixThat might drop to zero :-D22:23
ulysses__:D22:23
AmaranthSiDi: The idea is to use ubuntu-bug to file bug reports22:23
ulysses__and the Kubuntu users?:P22:24
ScottKulysses__: The same.22:24
SiDiAmaranth: i dont wanna have to use ubuntu-bug or whatever to report a bug in a package for which i propose a patch :)22:25
AmaranthSiDi: That is one place it falls over22:25
SiDiand assuming users will report bugs FROM ubuntu is in my opinion quite wrong22:25
AmaranthSiDi: We use bugs too much for other workflow22:25
AmaranthSiDi: Your situation would be better served by a merge request for a packaging branch, for example22:26
SiDiwell, packaging errors / mistakes are for instance definately bugs in packages22:26
SiDiAmaranth: this also means setup a branch, which requires an open port 22 on my network, + proposing a merge for a project using its own git repo...22:26
SiDithat sounds overoveroverkill to me, all i need to do is to send the patch to the package maintainers and to make sure its tracked somewhere on the web22:27
AmaranthYeah, no one actually uses the merge request tool in ubuntu22:27
AmaranthWhen I tried my branches got forgotten until I filed bugs, linked them to the branch, and assigned them to the people I wanted to review them22:28
SiDii never managed to successfully merge a branch via lp22:29
SiDiits just simpler to manually merge and then commit....22:29
SiDiand honnestly, there still are valid use cases for attaching patches22:29
AmaranthSiDi: Just for curiosity sake, what package are you trying to fix?22:31
SiDiAmaranth: xfce4-power-manager today22:33
SiDii wrote a patch to allow it to use our custom notification-battery icons for its notification bubbles22:33
SiDibut i sometimes have to file bugs against packages for xfce4-volumed and exaile too22:33
SiDithat change will really not be practical22:34
