akgranerderyck, ping15:00
akgranerif you have a couple mins I need to pick you brain about some bug stats15:01
akgraners/you/your15:01
deryckakgraner, hi.  Sure.  I have a couple minutes.15:02
akgranerderyck, do you look and the bug stats section in UWN at all?15:03
akgranerderyck, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs  this is the link we used to use to get those stats15:03
akgranerbut now the information we used to report on isn't there any more15:03
akgranerso I need help in getting that information again15:04
akgranerspecifically unassigned and total bugs reported15:04
akgranerI tried the advanced search and the numbers weren't even close15:04
deryckakgraner, looking at the +bugs page for a second...15:04
akgranerderyck, thanks15:05
akgraner:-)15:05
deryckakgraner, what info was there but isn't now?15:05
akgranertotal number of bugs every reported15:05
akgranerand unassigned15:05
akgranerunassigned we used the advanced search and got close enough15:07
akgranerbut I can't figure out how to get total number of bugs reported to date15:07
deryckhmm, I see that's gone now.  Had noticed.  Wonder why we dropped that.15:08
akgranerthis was the last number we reported  All bugs ever reported (356337)15:08
deryckintellectronica, was this ^^ (total bugs and unassigned bugs being dropped from +bugs home) part of the 3.0 redesign?15:08
akgranerso if we could get unassigned and totals back that would sure make the UWN staff happy campers  :-)15:08
intellectronicaderyck: yes15:10
intellectronicaakgraner: you can still get these numbers with a search15:10
deryckintellectronica, I don't recall talking about these specific bits of info (which is fine, of course) but did we drop them feeling they weren't as useful to general users?15:11
akgranerintellectronica, I tried and got the unassigned15:11
akgranerbut I must have been doing something wrong with trying to get totals15:11
akgranerintellectronica, this was what we last reported All bugs ever reported (356337)15:11
akgranerand I could not even get close to that number...15:12
intellectronicaderyck: yes for total number of bugs. i don't remember why unassigned got left out, and i think it might be useful15:12
akgranerintellectronica, willing to learn how.. could someone just email me or walk me through the correct boxes to tick?  I ticked all the status boxes15:13
deryckintellectronica, yeah, total feels a bit like it go in some leading paragraph.  i.e. 356337 bugs reported here.  And I think unassigned would make a nice filter still.15:13
deryckakgraner, I think you want to check all statuses and uncheck hide duplicates.15:13
intellectronicaderyck: sure, i'll file a bug. might even do it later, it's very little work15:14
akgranerderyck, ok do I have to do 2 searches or will it include the nobody ones as well15:14
deryckintellectronica, excellent.  thanks!  It could actually fall in CHR since akgraner asked about it. ;)15:14
intellectronicaakgraner: b.t.w if this is something you want to do regularly (to track the number or something) you could also easily set up a script to read it using the api.15:15
intellectronicawe can help you write it, of course15:15
akgranerintellectronica, always willing to learn15:16
deryckakgraner, by "nobody ones" if you mean the unassigned bugs, that would be a subset of the all bugs query I gave you.  So I would two two searches -- one for all bugs and one for unassigned.15:16
akgranerthen add them together and I should have the total in theory right..15:16

intellectronicawow, the new post-dupe-search anim looks like a compiz effect15:17
akgranerthose were from 2 weeks ago just so you can see what we use them for15:18
deryckakgraner, I believe the query I gave you will include unassigned bugs.  intellectronica, or am I understanding this wrong, that assignee "doesn't matter" is only if there is an assignee?15:18
intellectronicaderyck: you are correct. "doesn't matter" means any assignee or none. it doesn't filter by assignee15:19
deryckright.15:19
deryckakgraner, see ^^15:19
akgranerderyck, intellectronica thanks..:-)15:19
deryckakgraner, no problem.15:19
akgranerjust wanted you all to see why we needed the stats...15:20
akgranerand since you all are the bug people... is there something else you would perhaps like to include with those numbers  while I am hear and asking15:21
akgranerhere even15:21
intellectronicaakgraner: looks like a perfect use case for a script. if you tell me a bit more about it i can help you write it so that you can run it regularly15:22

geserthomas: what did you try?16:35
al-maisanthomas: the date should be in `date -R` format16:35
geserusually signing during build (dpkg-buildpackage or debuild) or using debsign later on the .changes files works16:36
thomasfirst I created my debian/files and then did dpkg-genchanges and then gpg to create the asc file16:37
* al-maisan reconsiders16:37
cjwatsonyou should not create debian/files by hand16:37
cjwatsondpkg-buildpackage should create that; it should also take care of running dpkg-genchanges for you16:37

jamaltaintellectronica: thank you!17:40
chmacThe code in trunk and branches/2.9 will diverge. The useful code is really in branches/2.9, but the vcs import page says it will only import trunk.17:41

intellectronicachmac: at your service :)17:44
chmacintellectronica: :-)17:45
intellectronicachmac: how can i help?17:45
chmacintellectronica: Is it possible to get http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/branches/2.9/ imported into launchpad as well as the trunk branch?17:45
intellectronicachmac: no, we usually only import trunk from cvs/svn17:46
chmacintellectronica: The word "usually" is my focus here... :-)17:46
intellectronicai don't know if it's a technical limitation or just a policy. why do you want to import it?17:46
chmacintellectronica: Let me rephrase another way, what steps would I need to go through to convince somebody to import branches/2.9? :-)17:46
intellectronicaabentley: do you know if it's possible (technically) to import a non-trunk branch from svn?17:47
chmacintellectronica: The code in branches/2.9 is production quality, trunk isn't really. I want to start remixing versions of WordPress. The useful code for that is in branches/2.917:47
chmacIt's the way WP uses code, branches/2.9 starts to diverge from trunk almost immediately17:47
intellectronicachmac: i think that's a legitimate use case. why don't you try setting up an import. if it's successful i'll approve it17:48
chmac:-)17:49
abentleyintellectronica: Yes, it's technically possible, but it's a bad idea because it won't be compatible with trunk.  This will be fixed for new imports when we switch from cscvs to bzr-svn.17:49
chmacabentley: What does "not compatible with trunk" mean?17:49
intellectronicaabentley: right, so that's why we don't do it. the same revisions will be different in trunk and in the other branch?17:49
chmacThe same revision numbers (r3, r4, etc) would exist in both branches but be related to different actual changesets, is that the issue?17:50
abentleychmac: The import will assign different ids to the revisions and files, so merging them will be impossible.17:50
chmacabentley: Merging from trunk to branches/2.9 for example?17:51
abentleychmac: yes.17:51
chmacHmm, let me ponder that for a few minutes. I wonder if that will be an issue in this case...17:51
chmacIn this case, I don't think that will be a problem.17:52
chmacMost developers will still use svn, so anything that needs to go from trunk to branches/2.9 would be done by somebody in svn.17:53
chmacI see the use on launchpad as creating "custom spins" of WordPress, to use Fedora's terminology17:53
chmacintellectronica: I'll request the import now... :-)17:54
intellectronicachmac: cool17:54
chmacintellectronica: Ok, sent the request, hopefully I got the urls correct, I double checked them... :-)17:57
chmacintellectronica: Any idea on a timescale for the 2.9 branch to be imported (or not as the case may be... :-) ?18:12

chmacI'm struggling to figure out how to produce a tar.gz from my new wordpress branch lp:~wpflavours/wordpress/wpflavour-no-visual-editor23:39
chmacI'm not familiar with packaging at all. I'd like to produce a tar.gz of the whole branch so it can be downloaded as a single file rather than via bzr23:40
chmacCan anyone point me to the right section in help or explain how I go about it?23:40
spivchmac: 'bzr export foo.tar.gz' in your local branch23:41
spivchmac: and/or are you unsure how to upload that to Launchpad?23:41
chmacspiv: Yeah, uploading to launchpad is the part I'm not sure about23:41
chmacspiv: I thought there might be a way to produce the tar on launchpad, but I can do that locally, so thanks for answering that part :-)23:42
spivchmac: IIRC it's something like you go to the series and upload it there23:42
chmacspiv: Ok, I'll look into that, thanks23:42
wgrantYou need to add a release within a series, then add the file to that release.23:42
chmacwgrant: Ok, thanks23:43
chmacwgrant: I'm starting a project called WP Flavours to produce multiple remixed versions of WordPress. Would you recommend creating a new project WP Flavours with WordPress as the parent project?23:44
chmacI'm not an admin on the WordPress project so I don't think I can create new a series there23:44
chmacI'll ask the admin if he can give me access or do it for me...23:45
wgrantchmac: What is a flavour?23:45
wgrantI wonder if perhaps a separate project for each makes sense.23:46
chmacwgrant: For example, wp-no-visual-editor, exact replica of WordPress 2.9 minus the visual editor23:46
chmacwgrant: That's a simple example. Flavours might include custom plugins, or edits to core code to achieve a specific purpose.23:46
chmacWe could create a different project for each flavour, set the parent project to WordPress23:47
wgrantWouldn't everybody be a whole lot better off if the code changes were turned into config options in Wordpress itself, and everything else just distributed as plugins?23:47
chmacwgrant: lol, that's a hot topic of debate, there are many who feel that way :-)23:47
chmacwgrant: One of the key issues that started this for me was the "phone home for updates" feature WP introduced.23:48
chmacThere's no way to turn it off except with a plugin, but by the time WP is installed and you go the plugin management page, it phoned home already23:48
chmacOnly way I can see to install wp without it phoning home is to hack core before installing23:48
chmacA flavour might simply be a wp core plus a few selected plugins, but packaged as a single tar.gz to make it easier to download / install23:49
