lfaraoneBug 617805 has a fairly trivial cosmetic fix. Should I push for it to get accepted in Upstream before applying the patch in Ubuntu?03:39

ScottKlfaraone: At this point in the release cycle go ahead and fix it and then push upstream in parallel04:08
lfaraoneScottK: okay, somebody put a debdiff on LP. So I should just ask t hem to submit it, and commit their changes in the interim?04:09
ScottKlfaraone: Yes or given your association with upstream it might be easier for you to do it.04:09
ScottKEither way, please follow up so we don't maintain the diff indefinitely.04:09

bilalakhtarNo REFERER: header found08:54
tumbleweedbilalakhtar: did you run it exactly as it says in the requestsync manpage?08:55
bilalakhtartumbleweed: yes I did08:55
tumbleweedno clue. #launchpad?08:56
bilalakhtarI am already there :)08:56
bilalakhtartumbleweed: working ! I was using the wrong method and not oauth08:58
tumbleweedis the manpage out of date? (in trunk, I assume you are on lucid)08:59
bilalakhtartumbleweed: maverick08:59
bilalakhtartumbleweed: actually, it was my fault, don't worry08:59
tumbleweedaah, cool09:00
bilalakhtartumbleweed: I was using the method as described in the manage-credentials manpage09:00
bilalakhtarand the 'hack' method there09:00
bilalakhtarwhich no longer works09:00
tumbleweedwell, if that's wrong, it's still wrong :)09:00
tumbleweedglad to see you running maverick - far too many patches I see are targeted at lucid by mistake :)09:01

bilalakhtarAnAnt: branch from lp:ubuntu-dev-tools09:19
AnAntbilalakhtar: what's cool about --lp ?09:23
bilalakhtarAnAnt: --lp argument to requestsync allows you to use the lplib api rather than the e-mail api and is quick09:24
bilalakhtarAnAnt: I actually filed a sync request bug yesterday but it didn't get 'filed' so had to use --lp09:24
LaneyI had some emails go missing too09:28
bilalakhtarLaney: The e-mail interface of lp isn't working at all!09:32
bilalakhtarI just commented on a bug using the e-mail thing, and the comment didn't come!09:32

* RainCT plays with the idea of a dh_make replacement for ubuntu-dev-tools, where you could do stuff like "foo copyright" to get a new copyright file, "foo control" to get a control file, etc.19:47
RainCTmaybe also with different versions of the files, so you can use "foo control dh7"/"foo control old". WDYT?19:48
bdrungRainCT: you could create a library that does it and add a command line wrapper around the library (to make it possible to have a gui for it)20:00
