[03:39] <lfaraone> Bug 617805 has a fairly trivial cosmetic fix. Should I push for it to get accepted in Upstream before applying the patch in Ubuntu?
[04:08] <ScottK> lfaraone: At this point in the release cycle go ahead and fix it and then push upstream in parallel
[04:09] <lfaraone> ScottK: 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] <ScottK> lfaraone: Yes or given your association with upstream it might be easier for you to do it.
[04:09] <ScottK> Either way, please follow up so we don't maintain the diff indefinitely.
[04:50] <AnAnt> Hello
[08:32] <Rhonda> iulian: Well, as part of ubuntu-release it would be surprising if *you* would use -e ;)
[08:49] <bilalakhtar> It appears that requestsync isn't filing bugs :(
[08:50] <bilalakhtar> I ran it around 19 hours ago and still no bug :( Ran it again half-an-hour ago, and still no bug :( what's going on?
[08:51] <tumbleweed> bilalakhtar: time to switch to --lp ? :)
[08:51]  * bilalakhtar checks
[08:51] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: BTW, I missed your session day-before yesterday. It was about what?
[08:52] <tumbleweed> bilalakhtar: sponsorship tools
[08:52] <bilalakhtar> for sponsors or sponsorees?
[08:52] <tumbleweed> sponsors
[08:54] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: manage-credentials fails for me
[08:54] <bilalakhtar> No REFERER: header found
[08:55] <tumbleweed> bilalakhtar: did you run it exactly as it says in the requestsync manpage?
[08:55] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: yes I did
[08:56] <tumbleweed> no clue. #launchpad?
[08:56] <bilalakhtar> I am already there :)
[08:58] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: working ! I was using the wrong method and not oauth
[08:59] <tumbleweed> is the manpage out of date? (in trunk, I assume you are on lucid)
[08:59] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: maverick
[08:59] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: actually, it was my fault, don't worry
[09:00] <tumbleweed> aah, cool
[09:00] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: I was using the method as described in the manage-credentials manpage
[09:00] <bilalakhtar> and the 'hack' method there
[09:00] <bilalakhtar> which no longer works
[09:00] <tumbleweed> well, if that's wrong, it's still wrong :)
[09:01] <tumbleweed> glad to see you running maverick - far too many patches I see are targeted at lucid by mistake :)
[09:01] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed:  I moved a week ago
[09:04] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: hey, --lp is cool! bug #630040
[09:04] <tumbleweed> yup :)
[09:06] <tumbleweed> sorry, can't look at it right now
[09:06] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: no need, I just wanted to show the bug to you ;)
[09:16] <AnAnt> persia: ping
[09:17] <AnAnt> tumbleweed: when will there be a new release of ubuntu-dev-tools
[09:17] <Laney> anyone can make a release
[09:19] <bilalakhtar> AnAnt: branch from lp:ubuntu-dev-tools
[09:23] <AnAnt> bilalakhtar: what's cool about --lp ?
[09:24] <bilalakhtar> AnAnt: --lp argument to requestsync allows you to use the lplib api rather than the e-mail api and is quick
[09:24] <bilalakhtar> AnAnt: I actually filed a sync request bug yesterday but it didn't get 'filed' so had to use --lp
[09:28] <Laney> I had some emails go missing too
[09:32] <bilalakhtar> Laney: The e-mail interface of lp isn't working at all!
[09:32] <bilalakhtar> I just commented on a bug using the e-mail thing, and the comment didn't come!
[09:32]  * bilalakhtar reports on #launchpad
[10:58] <bilalakhtar> bdrung: back from vacation?
[11:08] <bdrung> bilalakhtar: yes, but i will away soon again
[11:08] <bilalakhtar> bdrung: could you endorse my MOTU application at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BilalAkhtar/MOTUApplication ?
[11:10] <bdrung> bilalakhtar: i will before i leave again. sorry for burying it in my todo list
[11:11] <bilalakhtar> bdrung: no problem at all :D Atleast you are going to do, that's what matters
[11:57] <AnAnt> Hello
[12:26] <hyperair> DktrKranz: directhex has just uploaded gtk-sharp-beans to debian which is needed for the new version of banshee. could you take a look at it please? it's in the NEW queue at the moment.
[13:08] <DktrKranz> hyperair: we're preparing point release, so you'll have to wait a bit :)
[13:15] <hyperair> DktrKranz: okay sure
[15:55] <DktrKranz> hyperair: releasing will take a bit, so if you can remind me tomorrow... :)=
[15:59] <hyperair> DktrKranz: sure.
[16:01]  * RainCT wonders why his LP account has an oauth token for "ubuntufontbetatesting"
[16:01] <RainCT> (ah, for the bug report website)
[19:47]  * 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.
[19:48] <RainCT> maybe also with different versions of the files, so you can use "foo control dh7"/"foo control old". WDYT?
[20:00] <bdrung> RainCT: 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)
[20:05] <RainCT> maybe
[20:10] <directhex> libdebhelper1.0-cil
[20:33] <Rhonda> What tool is the one that is used for online telefone conferences?
[20:33] <Rhonda> And is the pidgin voice chat compatible with it?
[20:34] <Rhonda> Was that empathy?
[22:10] <shadeslayer> Rhonda: ekiga, kopete, empathy
[22:10] <shadeslayer> skype... loads of them
[22:11] <Rhonda> Does pidgin work for that, too?
[22:11] <shadeslayer> if it supports telepathy, id say yes
[22:11] <shadeslayer> telepathy is the only protocol which properly supports most video/call stuff
[22:12]  * shadeslayer sent 3 hours trying to solve a problem in a app, when the problem was in launchpad ....
[22:13] <shadeslayer> *headdesk*
[22:13] <shadeslayer> Rhonda: ekiga is like the OSS alternative to skype
[22:13] <shadeslayer> you just need to get a SIP account for free
[22:15] <Rhonda> shadeslayer: So ekiga doesn't work on my powerpc notebook neither? :P
[22:15] <shadeslayer> ekiga doesnt work? ive never tried it myself, but from what i heard its OK
[22:15] <Rhonda> skype doesn't ;)
[22:15] <shadeslayer> well...skype is skype
[22:16] <Rhonda> You compared it. :)
[22:16] <shadeslayer> oh :P
[22:16] <shadeslayer> i meant that it should work in ubuntu
[22:16] <Rhonda> Right, just teasing. :)
[22:16] <shadeslayer> skype is now actually in maverick repos
[22:16] <shadeslayer> which is neat
[22:17] <Rhonda> … not for powerpc. :)
[22:17] <shadeslayer> cant you force it to install?
[22:17] <shadeslayer> :D
[22:18] <shadeslayer> you can download the bin directly from skype as well btw
[22:19] <shadeslayer> it has a static and dynamic version, just untar the tarball and place contents appropriately
