ojwbhas launchpad.net's openid provision been turned off?01:30
wgrantojwb: Shouldn't have. What suggests that?01:32
ojwbwell, it's not working for me, and I read a few weeks ago that login was migrating to an ubuntu.com subdomain01:33
wgrantThat hasn't happened yet -- all that's happened is that launchpad.net now authenticates against login.launchpad.net.01:33
ojwbok, thanks01:33
ojwbperhaps I reset my password and have forgotten01:33
* ojwb will reset it now and see01:33
ojwbhmm, can i reset password from being logged in?  I don't see a link or button anywhere01:34
wgrantDo it from login.launchpad.net. This only changed about a week ago, so the workflows are not exactly optimised yet.01:35
wgrantOr login.ubuntu.com. Either will work.01:35
ojwbok01:35
ojwbwill launchpad stop doing openid eventually?01:35
* ojwb worries about having to reset various sites to a new openid if it will...01:36
wgrantlogin.launchpad.net will disappear soon. But https://launchpad.net/~username should continue to delegate forever, AIUI.01:37
brycehhi everyone, I've got a question about how to use launchpadlib to identify the bug_watch for a given bug01:38
brycehhttps://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/511001 is a good example01:40
ubottuLaunchpad bug 511001 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "[i855] Lucid Freeze shortly after X startup" [Unknown,Confirmed]01:40
wgrantbryceh: Try the bug_watches collection on a bug, or the bug_watch attribute of a bug task.01:40
brycehin launchpad there is a single upstream bug shown as associated with this (#26345)01:40
ojwbah, looking at the saved passwords it becomes clear01:40
brycehhowever when I look in the bug_watches collection on it, it shows several watches01:40

wgrantbryceh: Right, you can see them if you look in the porlet at the bottom of the right column.01:41
wgrantbryceh: TO get the one currently linked, find the bug task of interest and check the bug_watch attribute.01:41
ojwbso I guess authentication moving to login.l.n was the change that "broke me"01:41
wgrantojwb: Interesting, since they've always used the same database01:41
ojwbwgrant: I reset the password at some point, but presumably haven't used login.l.n since01:42
ojwbwgrant: and thanks for the reassurance on openid01:42

ubottuLaunchpad bug 516308 in launchpad-code "oops when setting the commit message on a merge proposal" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/51630804:37
pooliespiv you have a few mps just waiting for tweaks04:40
spivYeah, I plan to land those this afternoon.04:42
MTecknologyInteresting email from launchpad - Launchpad encountered an internal error during the following operation: notifying people about the proposal to merge lp:~echowarp/ubuntu-drupal-theme/2010 into lp:~ubuntu-drupal-devs/ubuntu-drupal-theme/6.x-orange.  It was logged with id OOPS-1530MPCJ1.  Sorry for the inconvenience.04:59
ubottuhttps://lp-oops.canonical.com/oops.py/?oopsid=1530MPCJ104:59
MTecknologyubottu: ah, so you saw it too04:59
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)04:59
MTecknology:P04:59
spivMTecknology: apparently due to NotBranchError: Not a branch: "lp-mirrored:///~ubuntu-drupal-devs/ubuntu-drupal-theme/6.x-orange".05:08
spivThe branch page for that branch says "05:08
spivThis branch has not been pushed to yet.05:08
spiv"05:08
spivSo, I suppose it's reasonable that it doesn't work, but it could give you a better error than an OOPS.05:09
spivAlthough, it did create a merge proposal.05:09
MTecknologyspiv: I'm not really freaked out - just thought it was interesting05:09
spivSo it probably should work, and just say in the notification, "sorry, cannot show a diff because this branch has not been pushed to yet"05:10

spivJust adding some info for you interest, then :)05:10

noodles785krisives: sure, what's the confusion?10:52
krisivesI'm irritated with some changes an Ubuntu package made recently, so I grabbed it's source to build a version of it without the new features10:53
krisivesI'm making a source package and I want to upload that to a PPA10:53
noodles785Yep10:53
krisivesmy problem is, I don't know where to make the PPA on launchpad itself10:53
noodles785krisives: http://launchpad.net/people/+me10:54
krisivesI grabbed the code from `apt-get source rhythmbox`, which I think is then same as `~ubuntu-desktop/rhythmbox/ubuntu`10:54

noodles775krisives: also, if you haven't seen it yet, it's worth reading through https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA10:55
noodles775No, it's your personal archive, just for you :)10:55
krisivesthx, I followed the directions and did all the key-related stuff10:55
noodles775Great.10:55
krisiveswell I want to give the PPA address to others so they can use it too10:55
krisivesI have friends that also hate the new Rhythmbox indicator applet10:56
noodles775Yep, that's fine, I just meant that you don't need to base it off another project, it's associated with you (but public, so others can use it).10:56
krisivesi have a newb problem with my source package10:57
krisivesit won't sign :( probably because it's not using my key10:57
persiakrisives: You may also want to file a bug to request the indicator applet be split into a separate package (as is done for a number of other indicators), so that it can be added/removed separately.10:57
krisivespersia: I did, the #rhythmbox folks laughed me out of the room10:58
krisivespersia: they said I should get used to it the way it is, and when I mentioned that users want choice (like Pidgin did with this same problem) they changed the subject :(10:58
persiaUgh.  That's not ideal.  Oh well.10:58
krisivesI rarely try to communicate with GNOME10:58

krisives(One that has a real open source fingerprinting index)11:00
krisivesThe audio fingerprinting algorithms available are only open on the client side, not the fast lookup on the server side11:01
krisiveshow can I get the package to sign ?11:03
riochhi. does launchpad generate the .po and .mo files automatically for translations?11:06
persiakrisives: You may also find #ubuntu-packaging helpful for issues getting a source built, but the most common issues is that you didn't add the "comment" string on your GPG identity in parentheses between your name and address in your changelog entry.11:06
krisivespersia: in debian/changelog11:08
persiaYes.11:08
krisivesI dont see any other parts like that in the debian/changelog11:08
krisiveshttp://pastebin.com/tynw37kY11:09
persiaLots of folks don't have comments on their identities.  Do you?11:09
krisivesI don't know, until now all my packages where unsigned11:09
krisivesI didn't enter a comment in the GPG key creation11:10
krisivesIs that what you mean?11:10
persiaYou need the entry in debian/changelog to precisely match the data in one of the lines output by `gpg --list-secret-keys`11:10

krisivesAre the left padding spaces important?11:12
krisivesI did a debuild earler, but now I can't do it again :(11:20
persiaLeft padding spaces are not important, no.11:22
krisivesWho can mark a bug as confirmed?11:28
persiakrisives: Depends on the policy for a project.  Usually most folk.11:31
slytherinrioch: What do you mean by automatically generate?11:42
riochslytherin: I'm wondering what the process is that I have to go through for translations. I'm not sure what launchpad does for me, and what I have to do myself.11:42
riochI think that I have to create the .pot and .po files myself, and can store them in launchpad/bazaar11:43
slytherinrioch: Is your project maintained in bzr on launchpad?11:43
riochyes11:43
slytherinrioch: The way we are currently using it is that we mirror our git repository in LP. Then translations complete translations and I manually download the .po files and commit them in git repository.11:44
riochhow do you cope with updates? For example, if you change your code your .pot file will change. This will generate new .po files. How do you make sure that you don't lose translations already made?11:45
slytherinrioch: the way gettext works you don't lose translations. When your .pot file is updated (and also .po files) old translations are retained.11:47
slytherinrioch: Also LP has translations export feature by which the translations can get automatically commited to bzr branch.11:48
riochwhen I run msginit to generate the .po file, it says the file already exists and quits.11:50
slytherinrioch: I believe the command you should run is msgmerge.11:50
riochahhhh I see. I was looking for a --merge option :)11:51
slytherinrioch: Meanwhile also read the LP documentation https://help.launchpad.net/Translations11:51
riochSo with regards to LP, I see a lot of people automatically merge translations into a separate translations branch. Why don't they put it in the main branch?11:52
slytherinrioch: I can't comment about that. We are not using bzr as our primary VCS.11:59
riochok. well thanks anyway, you've been a great help12:00

wzssyqajussi01: i am the maintainer14:22
jussi01I suspect this question belongs more in #ubuntu-motu however.14:22
persiaIf one is trying to determine what to put in debian/control, one is mostly stuck with upstream documentation or trial and error.  There are some helper tools for Java and python, but the Java one needs a lot of cleanup and the python one relies on distutils and sometimes gets things wrong.14:22
persiajussi01: No, #ubuntu-packaging, maybe, but not -motu.14:22
wzssyqapersia: is that to write a lot more deps friendly for build server?14:24

micahgI'm getting a weird error about cannot upload empty file, anyone else experiencing it?16:17
d34df00dSo.16:22
d34df00dHow could one import TS language files into translations system directly from Bazaar branch?16:22
slytherind34df00d: What is TS language file?16:24
d34df00dslytherin: that's Qt's format for storign translations.16:25
d34df00dThere are converters ts <-> po, but keeping the POs in the tree seems more like a workaround.16:25
slytherind34df00d: AFAIK, launchpad only supports .po format. I could be wrong.16:26
d34df00dI googled a bit and found some wishlist bugreports about supproting TS and dating back to 2006.16:26
d34df00dBut no resolution and low priority.16:26
d34df00dI also saw the proposal for Rosetta with TS support, but still could not get much info from there.16:26
slytherind34df00d: What advantages does TS format offer over PO format?16:28
d34df00dslytherin: it's supported natively by Qt. And Qt apps generally use it.16:29
slytherinhmm16:29
d34df00dslytherin: AFAIK KDE keeps PO and TS side-by-side, PO for translations on Launchpad and TS for runtime usage.16:29
dpmd34df00d, slytherin, Launchpad Translations only supports the gettext format (PO files). However, Launchpad is open source, and I know for certain that the Launchpad Translations developers would be more than happy to mentor anyone willing to work on this (https://dev.launchpad.net/Getting)16:30
d34df00dMaybe the most easy way to add support for TS is to convert them on-the-fly to and from PO when needed.16:31
d34df00dThough I would hardly have time to work on Launchpad — almost no time for my own project.16:31
dpm:)16:32
dpmd34df00d, what some projects do is to use a script to convert TS -> PO, import to Launchpad, export from Launchpad, convert PO -> TS16:32
d34df00ddpm: well, since I have about 20 subdirs with 20 sets of ts files (about 70 or 100 ts files totally), it's quite hard to do that on a regular basis.16:34
d34df00dThough maybe a small script would help with automation.16:36
