[01:23] <Meths> If I have two post-head commits in a branch but I only want to include one in my merge proposeal can I do this?
[01:32] <beuno> Meths, no, but you can branch to a new branch
[01:33] <Meths> Okay, thanks.
[03:12] <idnar> man, I don't understand how Launchpad decides that certain bugs have a similar summary to the one I typed in
[03:12] <idnar> it suggested like 10 bugs which don't even have a single word in common with my new bug description
[03:14] <spiv> idnar: maybe those bugs have duplicates that do, though?
[03:15] <idnar> nope
[03:15] <idnar> this project has private bugs by default, does that perhaps have something to do with it?
[03:15] <rockstar> idnar, I find that the bug suggestion thing doesn't work very well most of the time, but the times it works, it's awesome.
[03:16] <mwhudson> idnar: it does a pg fulltext search in the summary and description
[03:16] <mwhudson> and maybe the comments too, come to think of it
[03:16] <mwhudson> it always suggests 10 so if you don't have many it does scrape the barrel a bit
[03:16] <idnar> oh, okay, that might explain it
[07:45] <spm_> MTecknology: just doing your teams (plural !!!) removal now, sure you didn't miss any? ;-)
[07:45] <MTecknology> spm_: :P
[07:46] <MTecknology> spm_: I'm pretty sure
[07:46] <spm_> heh
[07:46] <MTecknology> spm_: long long story.......
[07:46] <MTecknology> Sorry for the pleasureful time
[07:46] <spm_> I think I can guess
[07:46] <spm_> is cool
[07:47] <MTecknology> spm_: short answer is... that individual is no longer around ;)
[07:47] <poolie> can anyone else reproduce firefox display corruption viewing https://edge.launchpad.net/bzr/+download
[07:48] <lifeless> poolie: it may be your video driver
[07:48] <lifeless> poolie: have you updated to latest karmic?
[07:48] <poolie> it looks like it
[07:48] <poolie> no, this is jaunty
[07:48] <lifeless> oh
[07:48] <poolie> i haven't seen it anywhere else though
[07:48] <lifeless> are you using xorg-edgers or anything like that?
[07:49] <poolie> no
[07:49] <poolie> just jautny
[07:49] <lifeless> under the 1.1rc1 heading there is an odd area
[07:49] <poolie> jaunty
[07:49] <lifeless> lots of horizontal thin lines, but not /corrupt/
[07:49] <lifeless> and its a \very/ long page
[07:50] <lifeless> with about 80% empty space
[07:50] <lifeless> I'd file a bug for sure
[07:50] <spm_> fwiw, +1 to lifeless's observations here. karmic.
[07:51] <poolie> http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34514975/corruption.png
[07:51] <poolie> in https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+bug/419742
[07:55] <lifeless> poolie: that looks like the intel corruption bug
[07:56] <lifeless> poolie: its on xserver-video-intel, and is forwarded upstream
[07:56] <poolie> i doubt it, this machine has an nvidia card
[07:56] <lifeless> the page length problem is rather different I fear
[07:56] <lifeless> poolie: well, it looks like it :)
[07:56] <lifeless> it may be that the root cause is higher up the stack
[07:56] <poolie> the page looks too long because of the large unfoldy sections for the news file
[07:57] <lifeless> poolie: its empty for most of it for me
[07:57] <lifeless> blank/white vertical space
[07:57] <poolie> unfold all the "release info" bits and it will look appropriate
[07:57] <lifeless> ugh
[07:57] <lifeless> :)
[07:58] <lifeless> that seems unusual
[07:58] <poolie> mm
[07:58] <poolie> also, the help opening in an iframe(?) seems gratuituous
[07:58] <lifeless> thats a 3.0 thing I believe
[08:24] <geser> lifeless, poolie: I see that the +download page is mostly white. Till "1.1 release" it's ok, but after that the page is broken: for 1.1rc1 the table has only the lines but no content, for 1.0release I see only the links for the files but no table and after several white pages down, I find a broken tables for 1.0rc3 till 1.0rc1. Don't know if something else follows it besides many, many white pages
[08:30] <geser> opera seems to deal better with that page than firefox
[08:32] <geser> btw: did someone try to run that page through a validator? the w3c one lists 1864 errors :(
[08:32] <lifeless> geser: file a bug :)
[08:46] <soren> geser: File 1864 bugs.
[08:46] <soren> :p
[08:55] <lifeless> geser: I meant on the page being nuts, not the w3c errors specifically
[09:44] <aa_> what is the easiest way to request removal of a project from launghpad please?
[09:45] <lifeless> a question on answers.launchpad.net/launchpad
[09:45] <lifeless> note that launchpad can have projects that are just references to something hosted elsewhere - those aren't really suitable to be removed
[09:45] <lifeless> but i there is something that you were experimenting with that shouldn't be kept it will be deleted no problems
[11:21] <[1]JagsLive> hi guys how do i install a wireless module from backports please, i've added backports repo already
[13:52] <ahasenack> hey guys, I'm getting this error when trying to attach a file to an existing bug after having filled in the text box with some comments:
[13:52] <ahasenack> Request-URI Too Large
[13:53] <ahasenack> The requested URL's length exceeds the capacity limit for this server.
[13:53] <ahasenack> I had to first post the comment, then attach the file
[14:36] <Knut-HB> Hi, I have a question. As I know, it is possible to download PO-files for offline translation with a program like Poedit. I also know that I receive an e-mail with a temporary link when requesting a po-download. My question would be, if there is a way to receive a permanent link to a po-file?
[14:37] <henninge> Knut-HB: Not from rosetta, no.
[14:38] <Knut-HB> henninge: thanks for the answer
[14:41] <henninge> Knut-HB: Couldn't you use a PPA for that?
[14:41]  * henninge has never set-up a PPA.
[14:43] <Knut-HB> henninge: A PPA where a po-file from a different project is loaded into and updated? Is this possible?
[14:45] <henninge> Knut-HB: as I said, no idea. I just know that a ppa is a place where you can put files to distribute them to users.
[14:46] <Knut-HB> henninge: Ah, sorry. Didn't read that.
[15:42] <soren> I'm kind of confused. I thought the idea of expiring bugs was that they'd disappear from the list of bugs.
[15:43] <soren> Instead, there's just a note at the top saying "This bug report was marked for expiration 148 days ago.".
[15:43] <soren> So looking at the bug list, I even have to open it before I see that it's expired?
[16:27] <kirkland> i lost some code that was overwritten by a package in a ppa
[16:27] <kirkland> is there any way of retrieving this?
[16:28] <kirkland> it was pretty recent
[16:30] <kirkland> nevermind, i found it
[16:30] <kiko> kirkland, you can retrieve old package versions usually
[16:30] <kiko> if you have the package name we can help find it
[16:30] <kirkland> kiko: thanks, yeah, i just found it in the build log
[17:02] <mathiaz> rockstar: hi - I'm trying to update bug description but I always get Entity-body was not a well-formed JSON document.
[17:02] <mathiaz> rockstar: is there another way to update a bug description?
[17:03] <rockstar> mathiaz, hi.
[17:03] <rockstar> mathiaz, can you show me the bug.  I bet I know what's going on.
[17:03] <kiko> mathiaz, you can stuck /+edit after the bug and you get a regular form, btw
[17:03] <mathiaz> rockstar: bug 458904
[17:03] <rockstar> mathiaz, what kiko said.
[17:04] <mathiaz> kiko: awesome!
[17:04] <rockstar> mathiaz, hm, what browser are you using.  It just worked fine for me.
[17:04] <mathiaz> rockstar: tried with firefox and epiphany
[17:04] <rockstar> mathiaz, sad.  I just made it work with firefox.
[17:05] <mathiaz> rockstar: I saw a bug that mentioned the use of AdBlock Plus
[17:05] <mathiaz> rockstar: which is the case for me in firefox -
[17:05] <rockstar> mathiaz, that would still be odd.
[17:05] <mathiaz> rockstar: tried with epiphany just to make sure
[17:05] <mathiaz> rockstar: and still failing
[17:06]  * rockstar scurries off to install Adblock Plus
[17:06] <mathiaz> rockstar: anyway - kiko gave me a workaround
[17:06] <mathiaz> rockstar: the release of ubuntu can keep moving on!
[17:07] <rockstar> mathiaz, :)
[18:33] <kiko> rockstar, are you able to handle https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/rosetta/+question/87219 I wonder?
[18:34] <rockstar> kiko, if I can't, I'll chase it.
[18:34] <kiko> thanks!
[18:34] <rockstar> kiko, no problem.

[19:09] <slavik_> hello, I have a question about the launchpad.net login/register procedure...
[19:10] <slavik_> who can I bug about this?
[19:10] <beuno> slavik_, ask away
[19:11] <slavik_> ok, thx in advance for the help
[19:11] <slavik_> I m trying to register on launchpad using my email address
[19:11] <slavik_> when I use the register box I m getting the message:
[19:11] <slavik_> The email address kristof.jaubin@gmail.com is already registered in the Launchpad Login Service (used by the Ubuntu shop and other OpenID sites). Please use the same email and password to log into Launchpad.
[19:11] <slavik_> however...
[19:11] <slavik_> when I go to Forgotten Password
[19:12] <slavik_> and I type the same email address, the system tells me:
[19:12] <beuno> this seems to be a common problem
[19:12] <slavik_> Your account details have not been found. Please check your subscription email address and try again.
[19:12] <beuno> sinzui, flacoste, do you guys remember how to work around it?
[19:12] <kiko> beuno, I JUST wrote an email about this
[19:12] <kiko> it pisses me off
[19:12] <kiko> slavik_, can you try using
[19:12] <slavik_> ... register with a different email?
[19:12] <kiko> edge.launchpad.net/+login
[19:12] <kiko> and seeing if that works for you?
[19:13] <slavik_> will do
[19:13] <slavik_> I notice the "random question" which isnt on the "official" register page
[19:14] <kiko> it won't work
[19:14] <kiko> sigh
[19:14] <slavik_> kiko: same problem
[19:14] <kiko> flacoste, why isn't edge update?
[19:14] <kiko> slavik_, did you actually forget your password?
[19:14] <kiko> flacoste, +d
[19:14] <sinzui> I do not understand the issues fully. I think this means the user has a single signon account, but has not actually registered (created a profile) on launchpad
[19:14] <flacoste> kiko: security fix
[19:14] <kiko> flacoste, huh?
[19:14] <flacoste> kiko: and tons of other cowboy all of this week
[19:14] <slavik_> I *may* have registered when the site launched... so not sure, sorry...
[19:15] <kiko> slavik_, okay, no problem. can you try doing this:
[19:15] <kiko> slavik_, a) going to login.launchpad.net and saying you forgot your password
[19:15] <kiko> slavik_, b) checking your email and recovering it
[19:15] <kiko> slavik_, c) then using the credentials on launchpad.net/+login again
[19:15] <kiko> this DRIVES ME CRAZY
[19:15] <kiko> flacoste, @#(!@#()@!!@#(*)*!#@()*!@
[19:15] <slavik_> ok, trying that kiko
[19:15] <sinzui> I say we tear out the launchpad SSO.
[19:16] <kiko> I say whatever
[19:16] <kiko> fix the @#!@#*@_)#*! problem
[19:16] <sinzui> kiko: This will be more fun in a few weeks when there are two SSO
[19:16] <kiko> which has been happening for weeks
[19:16] <slavik_> ok... it says it sent me an email... thats already *some* progress :)
[19:16] <kiko> slavik_, sorry, this is a royal mess to avoid using proper english
[19:18] <slavik_> kiko, thx a lot! worked like a charm, i m logged in now! :)
[19:19] <kiko> slavik_, you're welcome!
[19:19] <kiko> where is this flacoste character now
[19:19] <slavik_> says I m member since 2009/10/28 tho... on my personal page
[19:19] <kiko> slavik_, it's because you probably never logged in to /launchpad/ itself before
[19:19] <kiko> only to shipit
[19:19] <kiko> (or whatever)
[19:19] <slavik_> I used shipit before.. 2006 or something :)
[19:20] <kiko> yeah
[19:21] <kiko> slavik_, launchpad.net is where all the action is though
[19:21] <slavik_> thats why I want to participate :)
[19:24] <slavik_> and after browsing the site.. i know what lacoste looks like :)
[19:25] <kiko> he looks like somebody in trouble real soon!!
[19:27] <slavik_> I can imagine users who can't find their way onto irc to be stuck...
[19:36] <lfaraone> deryck: hey, I added the line to my etc hosts file, however it gets stuck at "connecting" when I try to access the page. (also when I wget Connecting to launchpad.dev|75.101.253.218|:443...
[19:36] <lfaraone> *(also when I wget to https://launchpad.dev/sugarlabs)
[20:38] <kiko> lfaraone, what are you trying to do?
[20:38] <kiko> lfaraone, oh I see
[20:38] <kiko> lfaraone, telnet launchpad.net 80?
[20:38] <lfaraone> kiko: lol.
[20:39] <lfaraone> kiko: deryck emailed me telling me he had set up a ec2 instance where he did a test import of the sugarlabs XML.
[20:39] <kiko> ah
[20:39] <kiko> maybe it is down now
[20:40] <maxb> I thought you had to whitelist IP addresses allowed to connect to individual ec2 instances?
[20:50] <lfaraone> kiko: I only tried it an hr after he sent the mail.
[20:51] <kiko> maxb, could be that, actually
[21:24] <poolie> hi kiko
[22:28] <lifeless> maxb: you can wildcard ports on ec2
[22:28] <lifeless> maxb: e.g. to open 22 to the world, or 80
[22:32] <tfogal> Hi all.  I'm trying to setup a PPA which has nightly `development builds' for my package.  I can't seem to find a good value for the `distroseries' part of the changelog; ideally, I want some sort of meta name that means "whatever the current unstable/in-development release is"
[22:32] <tfogal> Otherwise I'll have to manually hack my script every time a new ubuntu release occurs... ideas?
[22:40] <wgrant> tfogal: there is no magic value, but you could easily use launchpadlib to determine it.
[22:44] <tfogal> wgrant: Not quite as easy as I was hoping, but looks hackable.  Thanks!
[22:47] <poolie> flacoste: would "epic" imply it's 2 weeks long?
