janimoAre the restrictions on packages in a PPA the same as for those in the official Ubuntu archives? I saw the policy https://help.launchpad.net/PPATermsofUse but does not explicitly mention patents. So would libdvdcss2 for example be unfit?08:58
noodles775janimo: I'm not sure, but I assume the rule would be: If its published in main/universe then it's OK, if it's not published there (for legal reasons) then not.09:26

=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
bigjoolsthe only restriction I know of is that it's covered by a recognised open source licence09:27
persiaHrm?  So I can't release it under "Persia's License", which is a modified ISC to replace "The Copyright Holder" with "Emmet Hikory"?09:28
* persia has seen *heaps* of software in PPAs that have that level of modification.09:28
janimobigjools: besides the license the policy text says it should distributable by Canonical, but that is vagie09:28
bigjoolsthe actual line says "released under a license permitting redistribution free of charge"09:29
persiaThat makes more sense.  That's Canonical refusing liability for redistribution costs.09:29
bigjoolsjanimo: that does seem a little vague09:29
wgrantIt's not actually terribly vague.09:29
janimoanyway thanks. I was wiondering if libdvdcss2 which is FOSS but patent encumbered I guess as most distros shy away from distributing it09:29
persiaIndeed.  It's fairly standard language.09:30
janimopersia: yes, standard legal langues, thus vague :)09:30
persiaMerely technical, much as smalltalk is not always readable to the layperson09:30
bigjoolsI know next to nothing about licensing/patents so I'll wait for someone who does09:31
persiaUnofficially, the key bit is that the software be licensed to Canonical in a way that allows Canonical to allow arbitrary folks to download it however they like.  The rest is just preferred social engineering, and perhaps unacceptable terms.09:32

Stefyycan you tell me how to see videos from youtube?10:08
noodles775hi dholbach . From what I can make out on the bug, it looks like the loco APP stores the LP username. When the user updates their name in LP, and they login/logout of SSO, the signing showns the new username on SSO, but the loco app still has the old...10:11
noodles775hrm10:12
janimoStefyy: ask in the #ubuntu channel next time (but probably you need to instal the flashplugin-installer package)10:12
einstein1969hi to all10:13
noodles775dholbach: can you check the admin interface for the loco app, and check for both usernames?10:13
dholbachnoodles775, the LD updates information about the admins and owners of LP teams in a cronjob10:14
noodles775dholbach: Yep, but he's still being shown his old username once redirected back to loco isn't he?10:15
dholbachyeah, I just don't know why10:16
noodles775dholbach: Do you have access to the admin site for loco? if so, the data may reveal all :)10:16

noodles775Hi einstein1969, best to check with the zenity people, but given that you've both commented that you are able to reproduce, I think it is safe to set it back to New.10:38
einstein1969noodles775: can " i " set back to new?10:43
einstein1969noodles775: where i find the zenity people or "gnome system monitor" people?10:45
noodles775einstein1969: All the relevant people are subscribed to the bug, so they will have received your update (and Muflone's).10:48
noodles775einstein1969: regarding setting it back to new, what happens when you click on 'Invalid' at the top of the bug?10:48
noodles775If nothing happens, then you can't update it (but it's not yet been a day, give them some time :) ).10:49

bencercan i copy binaries from partner repository to my ppa without rebuilding11:04
bigjoolsbencer: why do you need to do that?11:05
bencerbigjools: on eBox Platform we use PPA as the main repository, and now we have a module for zarafa11:06
bigjoolsalso see https://help.launchpad.net/PPATermsofUse11:07
bencerwe would like to avoid people having to add two repositories more11:07
bencerand currently, launchpad is taking so many ours to build our packages ...11:07
bigjoolsthat will improve, there was a problem with a new kernel breaking xen11:07
bigjoolsthe builders are all back up now11:07
benceralso I ask myself if launchpad could give more building priority to native ubuntu projects11:08
bencerto other "normal" users11:08
bencerwe are releasing on 1st, and with current building times, we need the final release ready 2-3 days in advance ...11:08
bigjoolseveryone who uses the build farm thinks their builds are more important than everyone else's :)11:09
bigjoolsanyway, copying partner packages to a PPA would break the terms of use11:10
bencerbigjools: i know :)11:10
bencerbigjools: we are using zarafa open source version11:10
bencerabout building priority, imho its not the same building a custom package that an ubuntu native project11:11
bencerand would be very sad for us, moving away from launchpad because we can't deal with that build times11:12
benceranyway, good to listen that's going to improve back11:12
bigjoolsbencer: yes, the current queue is less than an hour11:16
bencerbigjools: that's good enough, thanks :)11:17
benceran other feature request that we have raised a couple of times before is ppa statistics11:17
bencerwe know how many people download the installer, but not how many uses the ppa11:18
bigjoolsbencer: it's in progress - we found some problems with the script that's supposed to produce them (in that it eats all the server memory)11:18
benceroh that's great news!11:18
bigjoolstalking of which, noodles775, did you file another bug about that?11:18
