mwhudsonjml might be working on it03:34
mkanatWell, I was mostly going to mine somebody's mind as to how they were implemented, if they existed.03:34

AnAntHello08:48
kblinhi folks09:06
AnAntI have removed tex-common_2.00 from a PPA, now, I try to upload it but it still gets rejected.09:07
kblinthe main source tree of a project I otherwise host in launchpad is kept in git. is there any benefit of importing that git tree into launchpad if I want to continue using git as VCS anyway?09:08
noodles775AnAnt: you still need to bump the version - there is still a history of the previous publishing.09:08
AnAntno other way ?09:08
maxbkblin: Some people find allowing people to post changes in bzr branches and use launchpad's merge proposal facility in a sort of semi-working fashion to be useful10:24
maxbThis is however frustrated by launchpad only supporting imports from the git masters10:24

srapsHI! I need help on several things regarding launchpad13:12
tsimpsonstart by asking your questions :)13:17
srapsThank you :)13:17
srapsProblem #1: we have several projects, which would be convenient to move under one "hat" project, how to do that?13:18
tsimpsonhmm, I can't see a way to do that13:22
tsimpsonsraps: I think you need a lp admin to set that up for you, you can ask at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad13:23
wgrantsraps: As tsimpson suggests, an admin can create a project group for you.13:25
srapsOK, I see - here goes next one...13:28
srapsHow to set up project for translation if there is no supervising team for my language13:29
srapsI have tried to follow the guedelines, but the translation file just lies down in the import queue for couple of weeks without attention, after that it just dissapears...13:32
tsimpsonI've never used the translations part of LP, so I don't know about it13:37
noodles775henninge: ^^^ :)13:37
srapssad :(13:39
srapsI could create supervising team by myself, but I do not feel so strong to help other people in managing entire language13:41
noodles775sraps: It would be worth connecting with one of the LP translation people - henninge_ should be around at some point soon.13:51
srapsI see, thank you! Do you know the time?13:52
dpmsraps, what was your question? Perhaps I could give you a hand in the meantime13:52
srapsI tried to configure my projects for translations, but as I have figured out, there is no supervising translation team for my language (Latvian), so there is noone to check the pot files. They just lie down in import queue for couple of wheeks and then dissapear...13:54
dpmsraps, could you please point me out to the URL of your project in Launchpad?13:55
srapsfor example (I have several) - https://launchpad.net/transport13:55
dpmsraps, looking at https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/transport/+imports I see that there is no POT template in the import queue. You will first have to upload a POT template before translations can be exposed in the web UI13:58
dpmsraps, it might be worth reading https://help.launchpad.net/Translations/YourProject/ImportingTemplates for more information13:58
srapsHave tried it for two or three times, it is there for some week or two, but then disappears without any action...13:59
=== henninge_ is now known as henninge
srapshave read that, I am not sure if I have understood everything completely, but as to me it should be there until someone from translation team confirms it14:01
srapsbut as there is no team, noone performs it... After some time system just drops it (?)14:01
henningesraps: Hi!14:03
sraps<henninge>:14:03
srapshi14:03
dpmsraps, the POT templates need to be reviewed once before the first time they are imported. This is a one-off process, and it is performed by the Launchpad Translations administrators, not the language teams. I'd suggest uploading the POT template again and pinging henninge14:03
dpmhey henninge! :)14:03
henningesraps: I see that you have a file called en_US.po in the queue for transport.14:04
henningesraps: if that is supposed to be the template, it should be called something.pot14:04
henningesraps: We only look at pot files during queue review and that would explain why your upload went unnoticed.14:05
henningeHi dpm! ;)14:05
henningesraps: I can rename it for you to, say, "transport.pot" and set it up as a template.14:05
srapsI do not remember exactly, but I have tried to import one named "*.pot" before, and again nothing happened14:06
henningesraps: once the template has been imported, the translations can start.14:06
rowinggolfersraps - are you going to volunteer for the supervising translation team ?14:07
henningesraps: I am sorry to hear that, I don't know what might have happened14:07
srapsI am not so familiar with work in LP, but I can not see the problem if nothing just happens14:07
=== verterok_ is now known as verterok
henningesraps: please tell me, if the file that is currently in the queue for transport is your correct template. Then I will rename and approve it.14:09
srapsrowinggolfer: the proble is that I am not so familiar with LP and I do not know if I am able to do it...14:09
srapsI am sorry, had a IRC client crash...14:15
rowinggolfersraps, do hang in there with the translations though... Launchpad is fanstatic for this.14:16
rowinggolferand there seems to be a really good group of volunteer translators14:17
srapsYes it is.14:17
srapshenninge: please do it, and tell mee if there is something wrong with it :)14:18
srapsas this is done asynchronous I am not able to check it by myself14:18
rowinggolfersraps - where do you host the code for "transport"14:18
henningesraps: the file looks good. Your are the author of the software, right?14:19
henningerowinggolfer: it is on LP14:19
srapshenninge: yes14:19
rowinggolferhenninge, not for code hosting AFAICS14:19
henningerowinggolfer: there are branches, though14:19
rowinggolferok.14:20
henningesraps: if you host your source code on LP, you should go here https://edge.launchpad.net/transport/+edit and check "Code for this project is published in Bazaar branches on Launchpad" so everybody know about it.14:22
henninge*knows*14:22
srapsprobably yes, I considered the option I have checked, because we do our development inhouse and push the code to bazaar from time to time14:23
srapsalthough it is "main" repository14:23
srapsWe do all the dev by ourselves, and there are no external contributors by now14:24
henningesraps: for it to be hosted free on launchpad, it needs to be open source, though. It does not matter if you accept outside contributions or not ;)14:25
henningesraps: I approved the import, btw.14:26
srapsI try to set up our pojects step by step, in order not to create many mistekes14:26
henningesraps: Now wait for the import cronscript to import it within the next hour or so.14:26
srapsthanks for the import14:26
srapsit is FOSS... GPL licensed14:26
henningesraps: cool14:27
henningeI saw that ;)14:27
henningesraps: were there other projects that you had tried to upload translations to?14:27
srapsno, I considered starting with the most simple one ;)14:28
srapswill try to get familiar with the surrondings, and then set others too ...14:29
rowinggolfer!question 9100314:29
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about question 9100314:29
henningesraps: please remember to call the file "transport.pot" when you upload it again (for updates), that way it will be approved automatically within 30 min or so.14:29
rowinggolferhttps://answers.launchpad.net/soyuz/+question/9100314:29
srapsok, I will note that, thank you14:30
srapsIt would be great, if system would warn "not readers" like me, if we try to do something against rules14:31
srapshenninge: I see you have translated several strings to German, that's nice :)14:47

henningesraps: what's "Driving Categories" referring to?14:59
rowinggolferso has "launchpod" stopped?15:00
jmlmwhudson, I'm working on it in my spare time.15:07
srapshenninge: "Driving Categories" - the same as "driving licence categories" this is name of table which holds all the options15:14
rowinggolferwho names the build machines at Launchpad? clearly someone with a sense of humour.15:17
rowinggolfer"nannyberry"15:17

vadi2I can't assign a bug to ~turl. It says UnicodeDecodeError16:13
vadi2Think he has some spanish characters in his name16:13
tsimpsonI think someone said it is fixed on edge16:16
vadi2Yes, thanks. I was able to assign him now16:18
vadi2Nice that the data is shared16:18
srapshenninge: had another question - how should I name and import translation template files for several separate modules developed under one project, in order to be able to get separate po files as the result?16:29
henningesraps: usually these will have different translation domains. Use one pot file per translation domain and name the file like thatl "translationdomain1.pot, translationdomain2.pot, etc."16:31
srapsok, I see... Thank you!16:31
henningesraps: it is best to only use lower case letters and dashes (-) for the name,16:31
srapshenninge: I will include your translation in next distribution, thank you for your quick action :)16:36
henningesraps: np, it was fun16:37
srapsyeas, the module is pretty straight forward...16:37
srapsI took a look at your LP profile, do you really know/use Esperanto?16:39

henningesraps: you'll find a bunch of us here: ;-) https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-eo16:47

bjsniderwhy are ppa builds being put off for multiple hours?18:37

lifelessbjsnider: what do you mean?19:32
bjsniderlifeless, i just thought you were responding to what that person had said to me regarding the mozilla/chromium builds and ppa build times19:37
bjsniderotherwise i'm sot sure what your last comment means19:37
bjsnideraddressing what over the coming cycle?19:38
lifelessI was talking queue times19:38
lifelesswe'd need faster individual machines to change build times19:38
bjsniderright, well that's what i was talking about19:38
bjsnideri'm talking about queue times19:38
bjsniderbuild time, queue time, whatever19:38
lifelessso yes. I don't mean 'no more queues', but they should get a bit better19:38
bjsniderthey used to be very good untila  few months ago19:39
bjsniderthen things started to get pushed back for many hours19:39
lifelesswell there was a full Ubuntu archive rebuild19:39
lifelessthat hammers everything19:39
lifelessfor weeks19:39
lifelessbigjools: you rang?19:40
bjsniderwhat's that mean, you rebuilt old bsolete packages?19:40
lifelessyes to find out what ones no longer build because newer libraries that are meant to be compatible are not19:41
lifelessditto gcc changes19:41
bjsnideris it still going on?19:41
lifelessI don't think there is one atm19:42
lifelessyou can look at the builders page to see19:42
maxbAlthough rebuilds happen at low priority, (score=4) so they don't in practice have that much of an effect on normal PPA builds (other than making the overall queue time look huge)19:45

wgrantmaxb: Minor nitpick: rebuilds are -10, so they score below retried builds.22:22
maxboh, they moved? I'm sure they used to be 422:23
wgrantThey were initially,22:23
wgrantBut after the first test, they were shifted to -10.22:23
* cody-somerville wonders if that bug he found the other day affects rebuilds too.22:44
wgrantcody-somerville: No.22:55
cody-somervillewgrant, because the ArchivePurpose is COPY?23:04
wgrantcody-somerville: Right, which bypasses the main code path.23:05
* cody-somerville nods.23:05
wgrantThere is a slight bug at the moment where langpacks always come first in the rebuild, but that's not much of a problem.23:06
