jameshlifeless: hi01:16
wgrantkirkland: I don't believe you can make a PPA private, but you can ask a LOSA to create you one.01:16
lifelessjamesh: hi01:17
lifelessjamesh: I'm interested in figuring out that openid users on launchpad'01:17
lifelesss openid thing, are in a given group.01:17
lifelessare there docs, or can you tell me about this ?01:17
jameshyou can query their group membership when you authenticate them.01:18
wgrantBut only if your RP is authorized to do so.01:18
jameshthere are some docs somewhere01:18
kirklandspm: wgrant: okay, thanks01:20
jameshlifeless: this is part of some early documentation I wrote, but should still be valid: http://paste.ubuntu.com/338395/01:20
lifelessjamesh: thanks, reading01:23
jameshlifeless: what sort of app are you wanting to integrate this into?01:23
jameshif it's a Django app, we've already got code to do that01:23
lifelessjava01:23
lifelessjamesh: where would be a good 'official' home for those docs.01:24
jameshlifeless: I know stuartm was working on a more formal version of those docs a while back, but I don't know what happened to it.01:25
jameshlifeless: that paste was from an early specification I wrote when designing the feature01:25
jameshit should probably be on dev.launchpad.net somewhere if it isn't already01:26
lifelessI can't see it there; ok if I just create a /OpenIDGroups page and paste it ?01:27
jameshprobably OpenIDTeams01:28
jameshthe extension namespace is http://ns.launchpad.net/2007/openid-teams after all01:28
lifeless https://dev.launchpad.net/OpenIDTeams#preview01:31
lifelessjamesh: thanks01:32
jameshlifeless: you should be able to use that extension to query any public team.  For private teams, it won't provide any membership info unless LP is configured to do so for your RP01:37
lifelessthats cool; its a shame private teams need an explicit bit set (outside the team admins control I imagine)01:42
lifelessbut in the first instance I want this for my own satisfaction, I have a hudson instance for things like subunit I'd like to expose cleanly.01:42
lifelessand for work needs, well, I can worry about that next year :)01:42
lifelessjamesh: to be an RP, you need to be able to accept a POST from the provider right ?01:57
jameshlifeless: no01:58
lifelessthe client gets a magic string then ?01:58
jameshlifeless: the relying party is the consumer of the authentication service01:58
lifelessyes01:59
lifelesssay I'm developing a site on my laptop behind a firewall01:59
lifelessI'm wondering if I have to punch holes inwards01:59
jameshlifeless: the RP needs to be accessible to the user01:59
jameshyou can easily run an RP on localhost and authenticate against an external OP02:00
jameshthat OP might caution you about authenticating to http://localhost:port/02:00
jameshbut it should all work02:00
lifelessok cool02:00
lifelessthanks02:00
lifelessI really should read the specs02:00
jameshall required communication is either initiated as RP -> OP, user -> RP or user -> OP02:01
jameshthe OP might try to perform discovery on the RP, but if that fails it shouldn't block the authentication02:02
jamesh[if it passes, it may limit which return_to URLs the OP will accept for the RP though]02:02
lifelessjamesh: does lp do this?02:06
jameshI'm not sure.02:07
lifelessok02:07
jameshBut if the discovery fails, the spec says that all return_to URLs should be acceptable02:07

stochasticHi, I'm trying to get a mailing list for my launchpad group subscribed to the iso tracker build notifications for Ubuntu Studio images, but no e-mails seem to be going through.  I've sorted everything out on the iso tracker subscription end, but because the originating address isn't associated with a launchpad account on the team, the e-mails aren't appearing on the list.  Is there any way to sort this out?07:52

henningemicahg: other than +edit?09:23
wgrantmicahg: +editstatus works fine for me. Do you perhaps not have sufficient privileges over the upstream projecT?09:24
micahgit's on an upstream bug watch09:24
wgrantI don't expect you'd be able to alter that.09:24
wgrantIt doesn't make sense.09:24
micahgI can see it in the bug, but when I click it, it doesn't work, but takes me to editstatus09:24
wgrantAh.09:25
micahgit's for mozilla upstreams :)09:25
wgrantSo the bug is that the link is shown at all.09:25
micahgso I do have the permissions09:25
micahghmmm...I like being able to target to milestones for upstream09:25

ubottuLaunchpad bug 369150 in thunderbird "Thunderbird splits email addresses with non-ascii characters and a comma in From: field" [Unknown,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/36915009:31
gmbmicahg: And you're trying to set the milestone for the Mozilla Thunderbird bug task, right? Not the thunderbird (Ubuntu) one?09:33
micahggmb: correct09:33
gmbmicahg: Then wgrant is right. That link shouldn't show up at all. In fact, in an ideal world what would happen is that Launchapd would be aware of the upstream milestone for the bug (if any) and display it appropriately.09:34
gmbOh for an ideal world.09:34
micahggmb: ok, but I like the "feature"...it's helpful for me to track upstream mozilla bugs fixed in a new upstream release09:35
micahgI can target the bugs to the upstream release and then close then in the changelog when it's released to Ubuntu09:35
micahg*them09:35
micahgsee: https://edge.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+milestone/3.009:36
gmbmicahg: Right, but my point is that a) you shouldn't have to do that, LP should do it for you if anything and b) What happens if you stop tracking things manually? It then gets confusing for everyone else.09:37
gmbBecause it gets out of date09:37
micahgwell, it won't be any worse than it was before09:37
micahggmb: I agree in an ideal world...but that's not what we have09:38
gmbmicahg: Right. That doesn't mean that it's not a bug in Launchpad though :)09:38
micahgif the "solution" is to remove the link to target milestones..I'd rather keep the "bug"09:38
micahgYes, I would love for LP to do all the work09:39
davmor2Morning guys I'm having an issue try to report a bug.  I keep getting timed out when I hit continue after typing in the description.09:39

henninge(this tip curtesy of wgrant)09:40
davmor2henninge: the description is now down to keyboard09:40
gmbdavmor2: Alternatively try filing the bug through edge.launchpad.net. The timeout should be less of a problem there due to a new feature that just landed.09:40
wgrantgmb: Unless you're filing against Ubuntu, which is where the majority of the issues occur..09:40
gmbmicahg: I can appreciate that. However, it's still a bug.09:41
gmbwgrant: Poo. Good poitn.09:41
henningedavmor2: sorry?09:41
gmbwgrant:  And you'd think, given that I just wrote a blog post about it, that I would know that.09:41
wgrantdavmor2: 'zzzzzzzzz' often works09:41
wgrantIf it's reeeeeeeally bad09:41
micahggmb: the bug is that I can select a milestone?09:41

micahggmb: can we leave it until LP starts importing upstream milestones?09:42
gmbmicahg: I've filed bug 494941 about it. Given that you feel strongly about this I suggest you comment there. I suspect we won't look at it for at least a couple of cycles.09:44

micahggmb: I just find it helpful, if you can give me another easy way to group bugs, then I'll do that09:45
gmbmicahg: I can appreciate that, but that doesn't make it less of a bug. We've got ideas about personalised bug groupings but we haven't scheduled those yet.09:46
micahgok, also, most people won't see it as they don't have privs for the upstream project I woudl think09:47

micahggmb: I guess another way to solve this, which is probably better, is to be able to target fixes to versions in LP09:54
gmbmicahg: But for an upstream project that makes no sense.09:54
gmbAll the project in Launchpad does is serve as a pointer.09:54
micahggmb: well, if it was implemented, I can target the version on the ubuntu task :)09:55
micahggmb: which is what I really want to do anyways09:55
gmbmicahg: I don't quite understand what you mean. You want to target a task on the ubuntu package of, say, thunderbird to a milestone on the Thunderbird project in Launchpad?09:55
micahggmb: ideally, I'd target the ubuntu task to be fixed in version x.x even if it wasn't released yet09:56
micahggmb: then I can pull up that version to see the fixes09:56
micahgand publish the changelog accordingly (I think)09:56
micahgor maybe not09:57
gmbmicahg: That would confuse a lot of people, I think.09:57

bjsniderthat bug stops a rebuild from working15:43
bigjoolsIt's not a bug.  You have 2 options: 1. copy with binaries, 2. re-upload different versions for each series15:43
bjsniderit seems so superfluous to send in so many source packages whent hey're all the same15:43
bigjoolspool-based architectures can't cope with the same version built more than once15:43

persiaIn playing with linking branches and blueprints, I discovered an oddity, and wonder if it's a bug.16:43
persiaSpecifically, if you try to link from a branch to a blueprint, it presents a pulldown (apparently of all blueprints for the same project as the branch)16:43
persiaIf you try to link from a blueprint to a branch, it presents a text box for the branch path.16:43
=== beuno-lunch is now known as beuno
persiaThis ends up having interesting effects if you're working across projects, for instance addressing an Ubuntu blueprint in another project.16:44
persiaBecause one *must* link from the blueprint to the branch and cannot link from the branch to the blueprint.16:44
henningepersia: I'd think that there either simply is no blueprints picker (likely) or the branch picker should be limiting the choice.16:50
henningeI am not sure if linkage between blueprint and branches from different projects is an intended and usable feature.16:50
persiahenninge: How do you mean no blueprints picker?  That the feature isn't implemented, or that there aren't any blueprints for the project that the branch is against?16:51
persiaIt works just fine if you link from blueprints to branches (and is useful at least when implementing Ubuntu blueprints against the many ubuntu-related non-ubuntu projects in LP)16:51
persiaIt's just that the UI is completely different in each direction, which reduces discoverability.16:52
henningepersia: yes, I was talking about a UI feature that lets you pick a blueprint Launchpad-wide.16:52
henningelike there is a branch picker (which is not used in blueprints).16:53
persiaSo the blueprints picker *is* project-specific?16:53
henningepersia: I was going by what you wrote earlier but I cannot image a single drop-down box containing all the blueprints in LP.16:54
persiaheh.  No, that would be unwieldy.16:54
persiaEven a pulldown with all the projects in Ubuntu would be exceedingly painful.16:54
JamieBennettwhat about the search box like for other entries16:55
JamieBennett?16:55
persiaWell, that would require a LP-wide blueprints picker, which would require someone to actually hack on blueprints.16:56
henningeexactly16:56
* persia waits for a new Ubuntu bug report to try out the branch picker16:57
persiahenninge: Do you know of a page that shows the branch picker?  I get roughly the same interface from both blueprints and bugs (text box that lets me enter a branch path)17:01
henningepersia: pick a branch for project series17:02
henningepersia: as in https://staging.launchpad.net/wordpress/trunk/+linkbranch17:03
henningereplace wordpress with a project you have edit rights to.17:04
henningeok, I am outta here.17:10
persiaHave a good night.17:12
* persia doesn'T seem to have access to "trunk" for any projects, and so gives up.17:18
persiaI don't think it's a bug anymore though, so much as a symptom of issues with blueprints.17:18
persiaIf either 1) a blueprint picker was created that specifically blocked picking other projects, or 2) the blueprints UI was modified to specifically block picking branches from other projects, I'd probably file a bug.17:19

wgrantRight, you'll see that has a task in the 'bugzilla.gnome.org' project.23:52

mkanatThat does not make sense indeed.23:52
