[11:51] <xnox> is it just me or uploads to ppa are down?
[11:54] <VK7HSE> Hmm... getting this error when attempting to login to REVU ...  http://pastebin.com/Amr74ZTP  any ideas ?
[11:58] <wgrant> VK7HSE: REVU has little to do with Launchpad. Try #ubuntu-motu or perhaps #ubuntuwire.
[11:58] <VK7HSE> wgrant: OK thought it may have had something to do with the open-ID ...
[12:17] <geser> wgrant: do you by concidence know if uploading with SFTP to the main archive really works? I tried it yesterday and got an "open failed" error from dput. Uploading to PPA with SFTP worked.
[12:20] <wgrant> geser: It's running on both, but I've not personally tried either.
[12:20] <geser> ok, will ask on monday when the person who can look at it are here again
[20:58] <superfly> Hi folks, I'm looking for some help with regards to getting a package into my PPA
[20:59] <superfly> More specifically, it's being rejected, and I'm not entirely sure why
[21:01] <lifeless> what does it say the issue is?
[21:02] <superfly> lifeless: the e-mail says, "Files specified in DSC are broken or missing, skipping package unpack verification."
[21:02] <superfly> I've uploaded the same package for karmic successfully, but the lucid one fails
[21:02] <lifeless> ok, please file a bug about that first, its not informative enough.
[21:03] <lifeless> on launchpad.net/soyuz
[21:03] <superfly> OK
[21:03] <superfly> before that, it says, "File openlp_1.9.2.orig.tar.gz already exists in Release Packages, but uploaded version has different contents."
[21:04] <superfly> lifeless: if you want, I can pastebin the whole e-mail
[21:05] <superfly> lifeless: http://pastebin.com/MTC1VcDY
[21:21] <lifeless> superfly: hi
[21:22] <lifeless> superfly: so it sounds like you've got a different tarball for the lucid version, which won't work.
[21:22] <lifeless> superfly: the earlier line should be changed to say "Error: ..." or something
[21:22] <lifeless> anyway, thats whats going wrong.
[21:23] <superfly> well, it shouldn't... it's exactly the same build process for both the karmic and the lucid packages
[21:23] <superfly> lifeless: did you get the link to the pastebin of my e-mail?
[21:26] <lifeless> superfly: if your build process creates the tarball, it will create a new tarball, and that won't work.
[21:26] <lifeless> orig tarballs have to have the same byte-for-byte content if they have the same name.
[21:27] <superfly> lifeless: would the timestamp on the tarball make a difference?
[21:27] <lifeless> in the directory ? no. Inside the tarball? yes.
[21:28] <lifeless> as does the timestamp in gzip, file ordering etc.
[21:28] <lifeless> You *cannot* make a new tar file as part of the build and have it work.
[21:28] <lifeless> [you can use pristine tar, but thats not strictly a new tar file, so ignore it for now]
[21:28] <superfly> ah, ok
[21:29] <superfly> thanks for the help, lifeless, I need to get to bed... I'll see if my friend who helped me set that all up can help me tomorrow
[21:29] <lifeless> ok, good luck.
