jamestaitHi all.00:35
jamestaitAnyone available to help with an apparent locking problem on LP/bzr?00:36
beunojamestait, what's up?00:41
jamestaitOh hey beuno. :)00:42
jamestaitI can't seem to push my branch up to Launchpad, and break-lock isn't helping.00:42
jamestaitI'm trying to push up to lp:hedera/thunderbird3, two small changes, committed locally.00:43
jamestaitThe error message I'm seeing is:00:43
jamestaitbzr: ERROR: Server sent an unexpected error: ('error', "Cannot lock LockDir(lp-67253904:///~jamestait/hedera/thunderbird3/.bzr/branchlock): File exists: u'/srv/bazaar.launchpad.net/push-branches/00/04/fc/b9/.bzr/branch/lock': [Errno 17] File exists: '/srv/bazaar.launchpad.net/push-branches/00/04/fc/b9/.bzr/branch/lock'")00:43

thumperjamestait: have you tried: bzr break-lock lp:~jamestait/hedera/thunderbird300:53
jamestaitthumper: I have, but it didn't help.  I read a thread that I might need to run it twice to get it to work, but that didn't help either.00:54
thumperjamestait: let me try00:55
jamestaitNo joy?01:00
thumperit tells me it isn't locked01:00
thumperor at least it gave no response to a break-lock01:01
thumperwhat is your push command?01:01
jamestaitI get no response to break-lock either.01:01
jamestaitbzr push --remember lp:~jamestait/hedera/thunderbird301:01
jamestaitHaving previously executed bzr launchpad-login jamestait01:02
beunothumper, I think jamestait's problem is Launchpad locks branches for some reason, I've had to ask mwhudson to unlock them before01:02
beunoignore me01:03
thumperhmm01:03
beunothis doesn't seem to be the case01:03
mwhudsonthat error is strange01:03
beunoit usually shows a message on the web ui when it happens01:03
thumperjamestait: your trunk branch is now stacked on a non-trunk branch01:03
mwhudsonlocking failure shouldn't be a server side error01:04
mwhudsoni bet stacking is involved somewhere yeah01:04
jamestaitbeuno: I seem to recall when I tried to view the thunderbird3 branch in the web UI, I got an error.  Lemme try that again.01:04
thumperjamestait: we could unstack your trunk branch01:04
thumperjamestait: by going bzr reconfigures --unstacked lp:hedera ( I hope)01:05
thumperjamestait: although it seemed to get itself a bit confused last time I tried that01:05
thumperjamestait: it worked but said it had problems01:05
jamestaitWhen I try to view the thunderbird3 branch content I get a page that says "Internal Server Error"01:06
jamestaitWonder how I managed to do this. :-/01:06
jamestaitThe difference between what I'm trying to push and what should currently be in lp:~jamestait/hedera/trunk is small - just a couple of e-mail address changes in debian/01:08
jamestaitI'm fine with the thunderbird3 branch being killed off and /trunk made the development focus again and re-branching if that's what's needed.01:08
thumperjamestait: it shouldn't be necessary01:09
jamestaitI wonder how trunk became stacked - it should be the other way around.01:10
thumperjamestait: you would have pushed the branch first, then changed the dev focus01:11
jamestaitYup, you're right, of course. :)01:13
jamestaitThat's what it looks like in my command history anyway.01:14
jamestaitI think I'd better leave it for this evening (morning) and come at it tomorrow with a fresh head and a little more time. :)01:16
thumperjamestait: sure01:16
jamestaitThanks for the help, I'll be back rather earlier after work.01:17

spmjamesh: possibly some internet filtering system is suspecting you of doing rude things? and hence dropping your connection? PPA could have all sorts of rude expansion.....06:44

persiaSo, we've an applicant before the Asia/Oceania RMB who reports that translations history is regularly scrubbed from launchpad.  Can anyone confirm this?  Is there already a bug about it?11:55
dpmhi persia, if I'm not mistaken, it's the translation karma that decreases, but the translation history always remains in the form of credits and attribution of each translated string for each template in which the translator contributed. danilos, henninge or jtv might be able to tell more12:01
jtvpersia: translations history is not scrubbed, no.  But I can imagine a few other things happening:12:02
persiadpm: My issue is that https://translations.launchpad.net/people/+me doesn't seem to have a complete history.  Should it?12:02
danilospersia, have you looked at https://translations.launchpad.net/people/+me/+activity instead?12:03
danilospersia, there is a badly placed "See all" link on your translations homepage which you can follow to get there12:03
persiadanilos: That's precisely what I wanted.  Thanks!12:03

bilalakhtarLooks like there is a really long queue at the amd64 build farm14:40
bilalakhtarfor ppas14:40
bilalakhtarI just uploaded a package, only to find out that it will be built after 5 days (after lucid release) !14:41
noodles775bilalakhtar: there is, but they're mostly very low priority builds, so anything you upload *should* not take 5 days? Where is your build?14:41
bilalakhtarnoodles775: oh just checked it, and found mine will be built in an hour. here it is https://launchpad.net/~gnome-media-player-development/+archive/development/+build/170864014:42
tsimpsonmost of the build systems will be geared towards the "final" ubuntu packages this close to release14:42
noodles775bilalakhtar: yep, great. So it's a bit misleading, but the "five days" mentioned on the builders page is how long it will take currently to clear the queue. When you upload, your builds have a higher priority than most of those in the queue (rebuilds).14:42
bilalakhtarI didn't understand one thing. What are the official distribution builders for? If they are for main, universe, etc, then I want to say that I noticed motu's uploading prebuilt packages directly also14:43
tsimpsonthe "official" ones are for building packages for distributions registered on LP14:46
wgrantbilalakhtar: What suggests that we upload prebuilt packages?14:46
wgrantIt's not possible.14:46
maxbbilalakhtar: Launchpad outright forbids uploading prebuilt binary packages.14:46
=== shadesla1er is now known as shadeslayer

james_wanyone know whether that's a bug: http://paste.ubuntu.com/423372/ ?14:48

wgrantjames_w: What looks like a bug?14:49
bilalakhtarwgrant: oh, so all the packages are built on lp?14:49
james_wwgrant: what does "Not" mean?14:49
wgrantBesides the 'Not' as a priority -- but that's the name of the priority, and it's always been like that.14:49

paultagHey LP Hackers. I'm using Launchpadlib to do a quick audit for the LoCo Council ( in which I am a part of ). I want to make sure that I don't flood the servers and get myself banned. I have it sleeping two seconds between requests -- is this enough?21:33
cody-somervillepaultag, are you just looking to run the script once?21:38
cody-somervillepaultag, what exactly is the script doing?21:38
paultagcody-somerville, I run it manually on the team, and it goes through each member and notes the join date21:39
paultagcody-somerville, It just finished a run on ubuntu-au without getting banned but that does not mean that mucj21:39
paultagcody-somerville, P.S. Somerville, MA?21:39
cody-somervillepaultag, you shouldn't need any sleeps between requests21:39
cody-somervillepaultag, No. My last name is Somerville.21:40
paultagcody-somerville, does it preload the whole team?21:40
paultagAh, sorry then21:40
cody-somervillepaultag, I've been in Somerville, MA though21:40
paultag:)21:40
paultagcody-somerville, each team can be 300+ no problem21:40
paultagcody-somerville, I don't want to flood the LP servers21:40
cody-somervillepaultag, It shouldn't be a problem. If it is, someone will kindly let you know.21:41
paultagcody-somerville, should I put something in the browser string to let you guys know to poke me?21:42
cody-somervillepaultag, you can authenticate instead of using anonymous API21:44
paultagcody-somerville, OK. I will. Thanks for your time :)21:45

comutamikehi guys - i have a quick question about BZR / Launchpad.  I got a bzr branch, but when I try it branch it back it checks out a read only version.  I am logged in.  Why would this happen?22:21

KIAazewhen do packages get published again? Every 5/15/30/60 minutes?22:31
wgrantKIAaze: Every 5, normally.22:32
KIAazeok, thanks22:32
KIAazeI always have difficulties finding that info22:32
KIAazeis there some good place to find it?22:32
wgrantHave you checked the PPA docs on help.launchpad.net?22:33
comutamikehi - any ideas why when i do a bzr branch it creates a read only copy?22:45
wgrantcomutamike: Which URL were you checking out?22:46
comutamikewgrant: bzr branch lp:~computa-mike/+junk/whobuntu-icon-theme22:48
wgrantcomutamike: What does 'bzr lp-login' say?22:49
comutamikewgrant:  computa-mike.... that's my username on launchpad22:50
comutamikewgrant: I was assuming that when you branch from launchpad that you'd be able to merge your changes back - but when it creates a read only branch that makes it more difficult.22:51
wgrantcomutamike: What does 'bzr info' say for the parent branch?22:52
comutamikeit gives me a checkout (fomat:2a)22:53
wgrantIt should say 'parent branch: <some URL>'22:53
wgrantOr alternatively 'checkout of branch: <some URL>' if you used 'bzr checkout'  rather than 'bzr branch'/.22:54
comutamikecheckout root : .22:54
comutamikecheckout og branch : bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~computa-mike/%2bjunk/whobuntu-icon-theme22:54
comutamikei woner if this is an SSL issue22:54
wgrantSo, that should be writable.22:54
wgrantWhat happens when you try to commit?22:54
comutamikebut when I use nautilus to view the directory there is a banner across the top saying read only, and I can't replace one of the files.22:55
wgrantEr. Can you screenshot that? That sounds really odd.22:56
comutamikewgrant: I did a commit, and interestingly it shows the file that I tried to change as being changed..... Just pasting that into pastebin now...22:58
comutamikeerm - I can't use pastebin for screen shots though can i?22:58
comutamikewhat do you recommend?22:59
wgrantcomutamike: A quick search brings up imagebin.ca, if you have no other webhosting.23:01
comutamikei gotit posted onto image shack...23:04
comutamikehttp://img64.imageshack.us/img64/8177/screenshotph.png23:06
wgrantThat's not one I've seen before.23:09
wgrantIs that groundcontrol or something like that?23:09
comutamikethat's just nautilus  - but I did install the Bazaar plugins ...23:10
wgrantAh, yes, it is Ground Control.23:10
wgrantSo it's probably a Ground Control bug.23:10
comutamikeis that what ground control is - naultilus plugins for bazaat23:11
comutamikebazaar even23:11
wgrantA Nautilus plugin that integrates with Launchpad and Bazaar, yes.23:12
comutamikeYou'll be pleased to hear that I've managed to make my required changes - so I think I should be ok.  I wonder if ground control (like you say) has a bug, and it really wasn't read only..23:12
comutamikeit worked anyway.23:12
wgrantSo, I've checked the code, and what it really means by 'Read-Only Branch' is that it is a checkout.23:13
wgrantdoctormo: Is it meant to do that?23:13
comutamikethat seems wierd - and could lead to confusion23:15
comutamikewgrant: I think i may uninstall ground control for the moment...23:23
comutamikewgrant: but many thanks for your help - I've been trying to get one of the icons replaced for like 3 hours...23:24
jamestaitGood evening you lovely people!23:39
thumperjamestait: morning23:40
jamestaitHow's tricks? All set for Thursday?23:40
thumperI have nothing to do with the lucid release, so yes, I'm fine23:41
jamestaitNot in mad panic mode, just able to enjoy the excitement like me? :)23:42
thumperwell, I've been running lucid for a month, so not even that much excitement23:42
jamestaitYeah, I was really late to the game this time around unfortunately.  I only upgraded last week.23:43
jamestaitAnyway...23:43
wgrantThe first few months weren't as exciting as other releases stability-wise, so you didn't miss much!23:43
jamestaitI think I'm awake enough to try and understand how I broke my branches, if you're able to help.23:44
jamestaitI'm new to bzr, and DVCS in general, so I probably just did something stupid.23:46
wgrantAsk away, and people will help if they can.23:46
jamestaitOK, I'm not 100% on the precise order of events, so please bear with me.23:49
jamestaitI had a branch lp:~jamestait/hedera/trunk23:50
jamestaitI made some local changes, committed them, then pushed them.  I then pushed to a new branch lp:~jamestait/hedera/thunderbird3 which I then made the development focus.23:51
jamestaitI set up a PPA.  I made a couple of tiny changes to my local repo, committed, but when I try to push to lp:~jamestait/hedera/thunderbird3 I get the error message:23:52
jamestaitbzr: ERROR: Server sent an unexpected error: ('error', "Cannot lock LockDir(lp-67253904:///~jamestait/hedera/thunderbird3/.bzr/branchlock): File exists: u'/srv/bazaar.launchpad.net/push-branches/00/04/fc/b9/.bzr/branch/lock': [Errno 17] File exists: '/srv/bazaar.launchpad.net/push-branches/00/04/fc/b9/.bzr/branch/lock'")23:52
jamestaitI've attempted bzr break-lock on both the trunk and thunderbird3 branches, but it hasn't helped.23:53
tsimpsonI noticed bzr break-lock seems to always fail on lp: addresses, try with: bzr break-lock bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jamestait/hedera/thunderbird323:54
jamestaitNope, same error.23:55
mwhudsonjamestait: what happens when you try to break-lock?23:56
jamestaitI get some output that briefly flashes up on the screen, I think I see the word Receiving in there, but nothing more.23:57
mwhudsonoh strange23:57
mwhudsonbzr info lp:~jamestait/hedera/thunderbird3 seems to be saying that there's no branch there23:58
mwhudsononly a repo23:58
jamestaitNow that is odd.23:59
mwhudsonparticularly as there is a branch there23:59
mwhudsonor at least most of one23:59
