[00:02] SEJeff: this channel, the help contact [00:02] SEJeff: and/or answers.launchpad.net/launchpad [00:05] lifeless, Excellent. We have a user trolling pitivi bugs. Currently he has only done 2. If it continues after we've asked him to stop, something else will have to be done [00:05] Everyone's help is much appreciated === _thumper_ is now known as thumper [02:43] * thumper hopes his connection stays up long enough to push these branches === _thumper_ is now known as thumper === Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-afk [07:01] People, there is a breaking news. LP is blocked in saudi arabia! What do I do? [07:01] help! I can't live without lp. I manage two projects, triage ubuntu bugs, etc. find my profile on https://launchpad.net/~bilalakhtar96 [07:02] I can access thw web int. using proxies but bzr and ppa? [07:02] Is there a way to get bzr to use proxies? [07:05] bzr will respect the $http_proxy environment variable, if set. [07:05] I contacted the Internet Ministry of Saudi Arabia, they said that its the supreme order to ban sites 'that distribute non-trusted software (and potentially) viruses' [07:05] bilalakhtar: is microsoft.com banned yet :-/ [07:05] For writing to branches, if you have another SSH server you can access, you should be able to put some magic in your ~/.ssh/config [07:06] spiv: thanks, will google now for more info. But, can all those who want lp unblocked, go to http://www.internet.gov.sa/resources/block-unblock-request/unblock/ [07:07] micahg: They knlow m$ very well, not going to block that. m$ has a big presence here. brainwashing the locals over here (I am not a local) [07:07] good! ftp server ppa.launchpad.net is not blocked! can upload directly. uploads are getting accepted [07:08] bilalakhtar: if you're lucky bazaar.launchpad.net won't be blocked either [07:08] spiv: will see that [07:09] spiv: Looks like all connections to *.launchpad.net:80 are blocked, so only http ones are blocked. does bzr use http? [07:09] bilalakhtar: it uses either http or https to resolve lp: URLs [07:10] bilalakhtar: but to write to LP branches it uses SSH (port 22) [07:11] bilalakhtar: so you may be able to workaround the block by using URLs like bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~user/proj/somebranch [07:11] (rather than the lp: shortcuts) [07:11] let me see... [07:12] spiv: Looks like lp: addresses also use bzr+ssh:// so this is also unblocked! [07:13] hehe, saudi ministry, what can you do? there are multiple ways to connect to lp [07:32] bilalakhtar: lp: addresses resolve to bzr+ssh so long as you've run "bzr lp-login ...", yes [07:32] spiv: good [07:33] bilalakhtar: I'm glad you can get around the block :) [07:33] spiv: join the discussion about the block at #ubuntu-offtopic [08:20] Hello people... uh, as far as I understand PPAs are gonna build from source themselves right? Can I just somehow upload already-built packages? [08:23] theadmin: No, everything is built from sauce. [08:23] theadmin: you can't. If you want to, just apt-get source the package and upload the .changes file [08:24] jpds, bilalakhtar, thanks [10:47] Hello all, just a quick question. Once I deleted a empty ppa, is it possible to recreate one with the same name? [10:47] People, for those who know about it, theres good news: LP has finally been unblocked in saudi arabia. For more info, come to #ubuntu-offtopic [10:49] primes2h: not at the moment. Currently deleting a ppa deletes the corresponding repository (if there was one), but leaves the database records there for the history (ie. the PPA still exists in the database, just marked as deleted). [10:50] noodles775: the ppa was empty, does this make difference? [10:51] primes2h: not when deleting the PPA via the UI... Why do you want to delete it and recreate it with the same name? [10:55] noodles775: I created it a while ago, then yesterday I tried doing some tests. I needed to restart from the beginning because of some changes in the signature, so I deleted it. [10:56] But now I would like to recreate it as "ppa", otherwise I need to name it differently [10:57] "changes in the signature"? [10:59] maxb: I changed gpg key [10:59] You changed your own gpg key? [10:59] Why is that relevant? [11:01] maxb: is not? as I said before I'm testing the ppa stuff so sorry if I say stupid thing ;) [11:01] things [11:02] Why did you decide to delete your PPA? [11:04] fyi, I've played a bit with the lp API and made a dashboard for some of my dailies: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fta/ppa-dashboard/ [11:05] fta: very nice! [11:06] maxb: because I thought I had been able to recreate it from the beginning. Don't ask me more please, I know I did a stupid thing. ;) [11:06] Well, I think you'll have to name your new PPA something else, or prevail upon the Launchpad admins to come to your aid [11:07] noodles775, thanks. too bad it's too slow [11:07] and i find it quite ugly atm.. i'm not very skilled in css [11:15] maxb: admins? any suggestion about people to contact? :) [11:16] btw, there's a problem with getPublishedSources(), it seems it's not reporting packages that have been copied [11:17] primes2h: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion [11:17] Expect it to take quite some time. They're all sprinting this week, and your request is an unusual one [11:18] maxb: noodles775: ok, thanks a lot for your help. [11:36] fta: It does report copied packages. What suggests that it does not? [11:38] wgrant, for ex, look at my page, gyp is missing in maverick, yasm missing in hardy, etc.. [11:38] those are copies [11:39] getPublishedSources should behave fine, but build-related methods may be a little odd. [11:39] Because the build will only be found in the original series. [11:41] something is weird on the 'firefox' line too. jaunty & hardy. [11:41] putting some debugs in.. [11:45] seems to be an API bug [11:47] wgrant, http://paste.ubuntu.com/440806/ look at the last two getBuildSummariesForSourceIds, they only report the lpia builds [11:54] fta: Were the two that report only lpia builds copies? [11:56] wgrant, nope, same as the others [12:07] wgrant, http://paste.ubuntu.com/440810/ am i doing something wrong in there? [12:11] howdy [12:11] wgrant, i see.. as long as they are not all built for a given src id, they don't appear [12:11] how does one go about applying for a private ppa? [12:19] bearnard_: I think that's a pay-for feature unless you're working for Ubuntu security [12:42] wgrant, did you end-up doing something for the apachelogparser yesterday? [12:48] fta: It's out of my hands now. [12:51] wgrant, no problem. i just asked to see if it's worth retrying today.. yesterday, after we discussed, i gave up and did the dashboard instead, while i had the nose in the API [13:01] wgrant: I've just sent an email to losas requesting the patched parse-ppa-apache-access-logs... but as they're sprinting atm., I'm not sure how soon it will be. === matsubara-afk is now known as matsubara [13:18] Yes id like to pay for a Private ppa, but how does one go about applying? [13:18] is there some sort of online application form etc..? [13:21] Hi bearnard_ , https://edge.launchpad.net/+tour/join-launchpad#commercial links to an email for getting in touch. [13:23] thanks noodles775 [13:24] anyone have any idea how to enable the backports repo for build dependencies when building via a PPA on launchpad? [13:25] bearnard_: Click on "Edit PPA dependencies" from your PPA page... there's an option for backports there. [13:26] doh! thanks again noodles775 [13:26] np :) === Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha [14:15] abentley: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fta/ppa-dashboard/ [14:17] (i'm looking for ideas to make it even more compact) [14:18] ..and faster too. it's really too slow (110~160sec spent doing http requests) === salgado-afk is now known as salgado === nailuj24_ is now known as nailuj24 === matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch === salgado is now known as salgado-lunch === matsubara-lunch is now known as matsubara === beuno is now known as beuno-lunch === Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-nomnom === beuno-lunch is now known as beuno === salgado-lunch is now known as salgado === Ursinha-nomnom is now known as Ursinha [18:57] which part of the API is used in the /+listing-archive-extra page for the "Builds" part? it's not getBuildSummariesForSourceIds() apparently [20:06] hi how long does it take for a package to disappear completely from a ppa? [20:07] along with sources and everything [20:08] From the indices? or from disk entirely? [20:08] It should be gone from the indices within one publishing cycle, which I think is 5-10 minutes [20:09] maxb: disks entirely,i can still see the source on ppa.launchpad.net [20:09] I'm not sure about that - but on the other hand, it shouldn't really matter [20:10] maxb: actually it does,i have to upload a new tarball,but with the same name [20:10] You can't do that. Ever. [20:11] maxb: :( [20:11] This is a good thing. It would be nastily confusing if you could. [20:12] Launchpad does the right thing to prohibit reusing version numbers [21:27] hello. can i use launchpad to branch a project hosted elsewhere? for example sourceforge [21:33] rm200910, I don't follow [21:33] what do you mean "branch a project"? [21:36] hi. i mean the project is hosted in sourceforge (CVS) and I'd like to host a branch (in bzr) of the project under ~rm200910 [21:54] rm200910: You can register a project record in Launchpad (if one does not already exist) and then register a VCS import. [21:58] thanks maxb === matsubara is now known as matsubara-afk [22:39] hi all, is there a PPA for python-launchpadlib? === salgado is now known as salgado-afk === Ursinha is now known as Ursinhaway
