hyperaircan i get something that has been source-only-superseded rolled backwards?01:54
nigelbabuwgrant: around?01:59
wgrantnigelbabu: Sure.02:00
nigelbabuwgrant: can you help me debug a launchpad api script?02:00
wgranthyperair: If the builds for the new one have failed, delete the new one and copy the old one back in with binaries.02:00
wgrantnigelbabu: Of course.02:00
hyperairwgrant: you mean i can do that? i thought it'd refuse to accept the old version..02:01
hyperairwgrant: in this case it's not that they have failed, it's that i've deleted them before they've even gotten built.02:02
wgranthyperair: You should be able to copy the old one back, although you may need to wait for the new one to be completely removed first (within an hour, I suspect)02:02
wgrantAha.02:02
wgrantWell, that should still work, as long as they actually didn't finish building.02:02
nigelbabuhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/429784/ - this is the error02:02
nigelbabuhttp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~nigelbabu/ubuntu-review-overview/trunk/annotate/head%3A/patch-overview.py - code02:02
hyperairwgrant: i think they were queued.02:02
hyperairwgrant: but not built.02:02
wgranthyperair: OK. Try to copy the old source back, with binaries.02:03
hyperairokay02:03
hyperair"Oops!" =(02:05
wgrantnigelbabu: You need to catch the 410 and handle it as you may -- it means that the person is suspended.02:05
hyperairand the page won't even load >_>02:05
wgranthyperair: Ah, yeah, wait a day or two, there are copy bugs at the moment.02:06
hyperairokay02:06
nigelbabuwgrant: that suspended this lead to this big bunch of html?02:06
wgrantnigelbabu: Yes, unfortunately :/02:06
nigelbabuAdding a         except HTTPError: print "Launchpad hates me and LP: #%s" % ( bug.id )02:07
nigelbabushould make it work?02:07
wgrantnigelbabu: You should verify that it's a 410, but yes.02:08
wgrantI have code for that somewhere.02:08
wgrantI do this:02:09
wgrant                        except HTTPError, e:02:09
wgrant                                if e.response.status == 410:02:09
wgrant                                        return None02:09
wgrant                                else:02:09
wgrant                                        raise02:09
nigelbabuah, lemme do that02:09
wgrantThere really should be a better way.02:09
nigelbabuyea, like LP handling it on its own :p02:10
nigelbabuwgrant: have you got time to run it on ubuntuwire for me?02:10
nigelbabuor else I'll have to wait until tonight to try this thing again02:10
wgrantnigelbabu: Sure. Current version in that branch?02:16
nigelbabuwgrant: yep02:20
* wgrant ports it to the older launchpadlib.02:20
wgrantnigelbabu: Still running...02:25
nigelbabuwgrant: takes quite a bit of time for the last query02:25
nigelbabuand that is the query I really really want02:26

wgrantBut the people likely to be fixing it are flying at the moment.03:55
kb9vqfTomorrow then?03:55
wgrantSome will still be flying then. And it's a weekend. So probably at least a couple of days.03:56
xnox=))))) love it "flying" what type of excuse is that =) i know UDS and all that =)03:58
* wgrant will have that excuse in a few hours too.03:58

godbykSorry to pester you guys again, but I've got another question for you.06:47
godbykOur project has three series: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/+series06:47
godbykThe lucid-e2 branch is where we're going to be focusing our dev efforts now.06:47
wgrante == edition?06:48
godbykUnfortunately, it has a bunch of cruft in it (files that are no longer needed).  Deleting these files leaves behind the history. So when we run 'bzr branch lp:blah' it's nearing a 200 MB download.06:48
godbykwgrant: yes. it's the second edition for lucid.06:48
godbykWhat's the best way to either purge the history of the removed files or create a fresh bzr branch without the history (I'm okay with just copying across the few files we need)?06:49
wgrantgodbyk: How extensive is the history?06:49
godbykI'd like to leave the series milestones as is since there are bugs associated with them.06:49
wgrantYou could replace the series branch with a new one with no history, or you could potentially rewrite the history of the existing branch to remove the big files.06:50
godbykwgrant: I'm not sure if it's the history per se that's taking up the space, but there are many MBs of files that we can remove from the lucid-e2 branch (like the website files, for instance) that are no longer needed in this tree.06:50
godbykWhich is the better choice, do you think?06:50
wgrantOr is the big content very ingrained in the history, rather than just being an accidental introduction?06:50
wgrantHmm.06:50
godbykIt's pretty ingrained.06:50
wgrantSo, you should almost always have separate branches for separate trees.06:51
godbykBasically, all sorts of things were dumped into the branch that never should've been there.06:51
wgrantRight.06:51
wgrantI'd start anew.06:51
godbykOkay.06:51
wgrantAnd watch carefully to ensure that things are done correctly this time.06:51
godbykHow do I go about doing that (without blowing away the milestones associated with the series in launchpad)?06:51
wgrantSo, the series and branch are not intimately related.06:52
wgrantThey're just linked.06:52
godbykah, okay.06:52
wgrantYou can just unlink the existing branch from the series, create and push a new branch, and link the new branch.06:52
wgrant(do it in that order -- if you push the new one before you unlink the old one, it will stack on the old one meaning you can never delete it)06:53
godbykOkay, so on this page https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/lucid-e2/+edit I would remove the Branch: entry?06:53
wgrantgodbyk: Exactly.06:53
godbykthen kill that branch, create a new one, then reattach the series to the newly created branch?06:53
wgrantgodbyk: I wouldn't kill it just yet.06:53
godbykwell, that's a lot easier than I anticipated! :)06:53
wgrantBut yes, create a new one, and reattach the series.06:54
godbykbrilliant.06:54
godbykthanks for your help, wgrant!06:54
wgrantgodbyk: No problem.06:54
wgrantHopefully you will have a nice small branch soon.06:54
godbykI hope so, too.06:55
godbykThen I'll just have to make sure people stop dumping things into the branch. :)06:55
|eagles0513875|hey guys i got a question how should i file a bug on lp?08:39
|eagles0513875|i found the ubuntu project listed on launchpad.net clicked on it when i hit report bug it takes me to the wiki08:39

nigelbwgrant: around?11:05
nigelbwgrant: did give any output at all?  I thought the try catch for 410 should have caught that error and handled it properly11:06

cousteauI have 2 accounts configured: Gmail and Hotmail. I subscribed to a mailing list and configured my Launchpad account to send the mails to the hotmail one, but now I have changed it to the gmail one and the list still arrives to hotmail. What can be happening?17:21

grumbelIf I am the upstream author and the maintainer of a program and I want to offer some .debs in a PPA, what would be the best way to do that? native or non-native package? Can I keep the debian/ in my main git/svn repo or should I create a complete new repository to handle the debian/ directory? Are there some best practices when one is the upstream author or should one just forget that and do everything like a normal debian/ubuntu package?17:58
grumbelBasically I had hoped to just add a debian/ directory and then be done with it. But all the docu and build tools seem to assume that one keeps Debian stuff and upstream source strictly separated17:59
maxbI guess there's no one around at the weekend. But just in case...18:44
maxblosa: papaya muntries and hassium haven't built anything since thursday. please kick them18:44

Philip5how does the share of *.orig.tar.gz between releases on the same PPA work? I uploaded the orig.tar for a previous release of ubuntu and then a diff for the next release then deleted packages for the first and now when i want to build against lucid with a patch it looks like the org.tar only is a symlink or somthing and not a org.tar that I can download20:07
Philip5if i make any sense?20:07
maxbPhilip5: The way it is SUPPOSED to work is that one .orig.tar.gz that is shared between all relevant versions in an archive20:09
maxbUnfortunately Launchpad has a bug where it deletes .orig.tar.gz files too early20:09
Philip5maxb: i think i noticed20:09
maxbLet me see if I can find the number20:10
Philip5any work around now or do i need to upload to org.tars?20:10
Philip5upload two tars....20:11
maxbTry uploading it. Though I have a nasty feeling that it might still fail :-(20:11
Philip5i guess it will fail on the checksum20:12

godbykHey, wgrant. If you have a moment, I've had some reports recently from our translators that a number of strings have been flagged as 'needs review'.  It seems this change happened overnight.  Do you know what's happened?  (See http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/05/08/%23ubuntu-manual.html#t10:14 and https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/msg01692.html for two such reports.)23:39

godbykwgrant: Okay, thanks anyway.  (It's only urgent in that I've got a bunch of translators hollering at me and I haven't a clue what to tell them. :-))23:40
godbykAs far as I can tell, nothing's been lost, the strings have just been 'demoted' to 'suggested' instead of 'accepted.'23:40
