| wgrant | Damn. Just missed him. | 00:07 |
| wgrant | He's merging the wrong way. | 00:07 |
| arand | So to report spam you just create a question entry in LP? | 01:27 |
| wgrant | arand: That works. | 01:30 |
| arand | Hmm, seems like it isn't highly relevant at the moment but I think at some point there might be a need for a "report spam comment"-button or similar... | 01:32 |
| arand | reported to https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/95497 if anyone is interested. | 01:34 |

| popey | if any launchpad nerds are about... https://edge.launchpad.net/+search?field.text=Sayak+Banerjee | 20:33 |
| popey | then click on any of the top pages (hits).. | 20:33 |
| popey | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~sayakb for example gives a "Lost something?" page | 20:34 |
| elmo | popey: his accounts been deactivated? | 20:35 |
| elmo | popey: https://edge.launchpad.net/~sayakb-deactivatedaccount | 20:35 |
| popey | thanks elmo | 20:35 |
| popey | others have shown up as -deactivated, that one didnt for some reason | 20:36 |
| elmo | there's a homepage (which isn't showing up) saying he's retired from all OSS projects "due to personal reasons" | 20:36 |
| elmo | FWIW | 20:36 |
| popey | ah ok | 20:37 |
| popey | ta | 20:37 |
| * popey is cleaning out planet.ubuntu.com config.ini | 20:37 | |
| popey | don't think anyone has ever done this | 20:37 |
| elmo | popey: speaking of that; it is in bzr, any reason to keep them in there but commented out? if someone wants to resurrect one you cull, it's in bzr history | 20:37 |
| popey | 3 hours of my life I'll never have again | 20:37 |
| popey | fair point | 20:37 |
| popey | i plan to tidy the ini up in a bit, once I have done this clear out | 20:38 |
| popey | will get rid of the #'ed ones at that point | 20:38 |
| elmo | cool, ta (sorry for my OCD) | 20:38 |

| RainCT | Hi | 20:54 |
| RainCT | Is there some website which takes a branch name in the form lp:something as an argument and redirects to whatever http page that matches? | 20:55 |
| RainCT | ie. something like xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('https://xmlrpc.launchpad.net/bazaar/', transport=transport).resolve_lp_path(url) but which can be used directly in the browser, over http(s) | 20:55 |
| maxb | to the branch? Or to the Launchpad webpage for the branch? | 21:01 |
| RainCT | maxb: to the launchpad page for the branch | 21:01 |
| maxb | code.lp.net/+branch/something | 21:02 |
| RainCT | Awesome! Thanks maxb :) | 21:02 |
| Zelut | something up with LP? my bzr pushes are taking a *long* time, if successful at all. | 22:06 |
| geser | wgrant: do you know how hard it would be to use the debian build log style for our build logs? | 22:46 |
| wgrant | geser: What do you mean? | 22:47 |
| wgrant | The one with pretty boxes and stuff produced by the new sbuild, or something else? | 22:48 |
| geser | exactly that, so it easier to see where each "step" (updating the chroot, installing build depends, the actual building, the clean up) start | 22:50 |
| wgrant | geser: That requires a new sbuild. | 22:53 |
| wgrant | LP's sbuild is a five year old fork. | 22:53 |
| wgrant | I want to fix that, but it's difficult. | 22:53 |
| geser | oh :( | 22:54 |
| wgrant | (we carry a few horrific patches against it, some of which are obsolete, and some of which I don't yet know exist) | 22:55 |
| sladen | could somebody please convert https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/95599 back into a bug report please | 23:04 |
| wgrant | sladen: A better solution is to ask a question to get an alias added. | 23:05 |
| wgrant | Any other solution is very difficult and probably wrong. | 23:06 |
| sladen | wgrant: *blink* | 23:06 |
| wgrant | sladen: The solution is to get 'ubunet' aliased to 'ubuntuone-servers', which an admin can do in a second. | 23:07 |
| sladen | wgrant: I fixed the _bug_ because a generic solution is needed (be that code, or workflow)---kludged workaround work for one instance and merely perpetuate a problem that shouldn't exist in the first place | 23:08 |
| sladen | s/fixed/filed/ | 23:08 |
| wgrant | It's not a kludged workaround. | 23:08 |
| sladen | wgrant: something that required repeated, extranous manual effort is a not a workaround? | 23:09 |
| wgrant | sladen: It requires little more effort than a normal project rename, and a rename often involves addition of an alias anyway. | 23:09 |
| wgrant | But maybe sinzui has some more insight? | 23:09 |
| sladen | wgrant: if the solution is to add a tick box (selected by default of course) to the LP admin renaming interface ("add redirect for old project name") then that's a solution---it's a change of workflow where something happens automatically | 23:10 |
| james_w | anyone seeing bzr pulls hanging currently? | 23:12 |
| wgrant | james_w: There was a report of that an hour or so ago, so probably... | 23:13 |
| sladen | if it's _really_ desired to convert this into a request for a one-off kludge adding to one instance of Launchpad for one project within that instance, then I can refile the _core_ issue (a generic fix needed) again... | 23:13 |
| james_w | anyone around who can look in to it? | 23:14 |
| wgrant | sladen: It's well known that if URLs need to not break, an alias should be added. I don't think there's much value in adding a special case. | 23:18 |
| wgrant | But perhaps it is a valid request that such a checkbox should be added. | 23:18 |
| sladen | wgrant: bingo. And on that basis, please convert it back to the bug report that it was | 23:19 |
| wgrant | sladen: Click on the bug, "Convert back to a bug" | 23:19 |
| wgrant | sladen: Then retitle it, and retarget it to launchpad-registry. | 23:20 |
| elmo | james_w: http or ssh? | 23:20 |
| james_w | ssh | 23:20 |
| james_w | it's connecting | 23:20 |
| james_w | hanging in read() on the bzr process | 23:20 |
| elmo | try now | 23:21 |
| elmo | or retry now | 23:21 |
| james_w | bingo | 23:21 |
| james_w | thanks | 23:21 |
| sladen | wgrant: I'm not a member of "Canonical Launchpad Engineering", hence coming here to request that somebody who _is_ convert it... | 23:22 |
| sladen | wgrant: if I should be, I can file a bug about that too | 23:22 |
| wgrant | sladen: I'm not either. But why do you need to be? | 23:22 |
| sladen | wgrant: wget -q https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/95599 -O- | grep -qci convert || echo EPERM | 23:25 |
| wgrant | sladen: On the bug page. | 23:26 |
| sladen | wgrant: ta, kthxbye | 23:29 |
| james_w | elmo: sorry, but it's at it again | 23:35 |
