madomanHi all ... I noticed that update "linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic" for 10.04 from update manager  makes my Dell E6510 boot to the "black" screen. I suppose this is a know bug? With "linux-image-2.6.32-23-generic" it works just fine. Seems that "black" screen boot is some know issue. But should this be reported as a new bug? Because it was delivered by the update manager.09:45

Laibschif it's any help, I am official Debian maintainer of a number of packages.14:17
LaibschI think LP is misbehaving here.14:17
Laibschbut I just want to see if I am doing something stupid.14:17
Laibschagain, I am specifically uploading to maverick, yet get a rejection message for lucid.  and even there the source has been deleted days ago.14:18
sorenLaibsch: Does that PPA depend on your "stable" ppa?14:24
Laibschlemme check14:24
Laibschnope14:25
sorenLaibsch: If it does, that explains why it's rejected. Not so much why it says lucid, but..14:25
Laibschbut that certainly was a good guess14:25
sorenok.14:25
sorenLaibsch: Does it have any dependencies?14:26
Laibschno14:26

maxbLaibsch: apt-cacher-ng - 0.5.4-1    (changes file)   2010-09-03  Deleted  Lucid  Net   All builds were built successfully.14:44
maxbIt's already there, you can't upload it again14:44
Laibschthat's three days ago14:44
Laibschwhy is it still there?14:44
Laibschthat's the first question14:44
Laibschsecond question is why the upload goes to lucid14:44
Laibschalthough I upload to maverick14:45
maxbWell, first question, it's functioning as designed. You can delete packages, but not the metadata that records they once existed.14:45
Laibsch?14:46
Laibschso far I was always able to reupload a deleted package with the same version number14:47
Laibschand again, why the problem with the lucid/maverick mixup14:47
maxbHuh. Really? I thought that was impossible14:47
Laibschdoesn't look lik "functioning as designed" to me14:47
Laibschsure, did that a couple of times already14:47
tgm4883Can you specify the release (maverick) when you upload a source package? I thought you had to do it in the changelog?14:47
Laibschusually it takes about 15-30 minutes for the cronjob to delete the files14:48
Laibschtgm4883: you can force the upload to a particular release14:48
tgm4883hmm, neat14:48
persiaIt's *supposed* to be impossible to upload the same version number to the same PPA (regardless of target).  Any case of it working was accidental exploitation of a bug, and the bug was probably fixed.14:48
Laibschpersia: even if that file was removed?14:48
maxbYes, even if.14:48
Laibschsorry, but that would be terribly stupid14:49
maxbNo, it's terribly sensible14:49
Laibschand IMO that would be a real bug14:49
tgm4883why would you want to?14:49
Laibschhow do I upload the original debian version, then?14:49
tgm4883that would surely cause issues for upgrades14:49
persiaIt is designed to allow PPAs to be first-class archives for distribution.  This makes them somewhere between painful and useless for learning, or staging stuff.14:49
Laibschtgm4883: ^^^ for example14:50
persiaThe two alternatives were discussed at length in several bugs, and the decision was to support distribution over staging.14:50
LaibschOK14:50
Laibschso the feature of allowing unchanged sources was deliberately broken, then14:50
LaibschCause I don't see how to upload that package to my PPA now14:51
Laibschwithouth creating a new PPA14:51
Laibschand to request a sync I need to show a build log14:51
Laibschwhich I haven't been able to produce for almost a week now14:51
Laibsch:-/14:51
Laibschsorry, I stand by my word that this is stupid14:51
LaibschI don't see the benefit14:51
Laibscha deleted source and binary should be deleted for good14:51
persia`apt-get install sbuild ubuntu-dev-tools; mk-sbuild --arch=i386 maverick; sbuild -A -d maverick-i386 foo.dsc` will generate a build log.14:53
Laibschtgm4883: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Uploading#Using%20packages%20from%20other%20distributions14:53
Laibschthat's where that forced release is documented14:53
persialaunchpad PPAs have been adjusted to not usefully support what you seek to accomplish, intentionally.  I happen to agree that it would be nice to use them for that, but it's not how it works today.14:53
Laibschpersia: I already see a dev asking me for a buildlog from a PPA at some time in the future14:54
Laibschbecause they will be my comfortable than me uploading a build log14:54
Laibschplus now I need to set up a maverick pbuilder14:54
persiasend them here.  The decision was made a couple years ago, and isn't likely to be revisited.14:54
Laibschboooooh!14:54
Laibschcouple of years?14:55
tgm4883Laibsch, ah I see now, however there is still "Important: Version numbers must be unique. This has implications if you want to provide packages for multiple Ubuntu series at once:", which is usually why I append +ppa# on the end14:55
Laibschdoubt that14:55
Laibschrather a couple of months14:55
tgm4883that way I can bump a build number in LP14:55
LaibschI've still been using that feature or bug depending on where you stand recently14:55
Laibschtgm4883: I don't think you fully understand what I am doing14:55
LaibschI'm intentionally not fiddling with changelog14:56
tgm4883Laibsch, I probably don't. But i'm not a LP person, so I can't do much to help you anyway14:56

Laibschkaboom15:01
Laibschthat PPA is now forever dead for this package 0.5.4-115:01
LaibschIMHO that's not good15:01
wgrantIt's as it should be.15:01
wgrantPPAs are not test build platforms.15:01
Laibschask the bugs-people15:02
wgrantHm?15:02
LaibschI think they would disagree15:02
wgrantBugs-people?15:02
Laibscha buildlog from a PPA is a common request15:02
wgrantThat is odd.15:02
Laibschfor a sync request15:02
Laibschand possibly others15:02
tgm4883Laibsch, just because the bugs people are using the PPA as a staging area doesn't mean that is what it is for15:02
wgrantBut what's stopping you from doing a no-change rebuild?15:03
maxbhuh? I don't even provide logs usually for sync requests, I just say I did it15:03
Laibschtgm4883: I'm just trying to achieve whatever I feel is important for Ubuntu.15:03
wgrantmaxb: FFEs require build logs15:03
LaibschI don't care how that is done15:03
wgrantOr did back in my day.15:03
Laibschbut some consistency and common sense would be nice15:03
wgrantLaibsch: Why can't you upload with a different version number, then sync?15:03
wgrantThat is, submit a build log for a slightly different version.15:03
wgrantBut still sync the original.15:03
Laibschwhy should I upload with a different version number?15:03
Laibschwgrant: just a sec15:03
wgrantBecause it's going to have different binaries.15:03
tgm4883because you can't use the same version :)15:04
wgrantAnd using the same version number for two different sets of packages is insane.15:04
LaibschI only want one set of packages15:04
wgrantRight.15:04
wgrantBut you asked for two.15:04
Laibschbut even deleting all packages, I can't do that anymore now15:04
Laibschnope15:05
LaibschI didn't15:05
wgrantYou uploaded to Lucid.15:05
wgrantThen you tried to upload to Maverick.15:05
Laibschwgrant: http://oss.leggewie.org/dsc-upload-hardy is the reason15:05
tgm4883I stand by my statement of appending +ppa# on the end. That should show that it is still the same version number, but the build number was bumped.15:05
wgranttgm4883: Exactly.15:05
tgm4883I'm assuming you need to rebuild it for a packaging issue15:05
LaibschI can upload an unmodified dsc from anywhere with a single command15:05
Laibschtgm4883: and I stand by my statement that you don't understand what I'm doing, OK?15:05
wgrantLaibsch: And that's not necessarily a good thing.15:06
wgrantPPAs are not, primarily, a test build platform.15:06
Laibschyour opinion15:06
wgrantThey are designed to behave like a sane distribution archive.15:06
tgm4883Laibsch, you are trying to produce build logs for a sync request to get a newer version of apt-cacher-ng into maverick from debian?15:06
wgrantAnd sane distribution archives do not reuse versions.15:06
* Laibsch suggest for wgrant to read https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Uploading#Using%20packages%20from%20other%20distributions15:07
wgrantI'm well aware of it.15:07
LaibschI'm just doing what's intentionally supported there15:07

Laibschthe "unchanged" bit15:08
Laibschthat obviously includes the changelog15:08
wgrantYou can upload it.15:08
wgrantJust not multiple times.15:08
tgm4883wgrant, I would have to agree that it would be nice to have the same version number on multiple releases. As it stands now, we have to add hte ppa# if we build for more than 1 release15:08
wgranttgm4883: Oh yes, that would certainly be nice.15:08
wgrantBut Debian repositories (and indeed package managers) don't work that way.15:09
tgm4883yep15:09
Laibschthanks for helping me understand what the issue was15:13
Laibschlet's agree to disagree on the sensibility of completely disallowing from now uploading the unmodified source to my PPA15:13
LaibschI'm barred from that for life now15:14
LaibschIMHO not sensible15:14
wgrantGiven how archives work, it is quite sensible.15:14
wgrantIt's not sensible for a test build platform, however.15:14
wgrantWhich is what some use PPAs for.15:14
tgm4883Sounds like the PPA team and the bug team need to have a chat15:15
bigjoolsLaibsch: you are not barred from anything, you can do a simple no-change version bump.  All the other PPA users do this.  Ubuntu uploaders do this.15:16
tgm4883It would seem however that you aren't allowed to upload packages that haven't been changed from the version that is in debian or ubuntu15:17
bigjoolswith respect, PPAs are not a package build testing service, they are a package publishing service15:17
tgm4883from https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Uploading15:17
bigjoolstgm4883: yes, you can upload them with no change, provided you've not already uploaded them to the same PPA15:17
tgm4883bigjools, well technically you can, i was just reading the help pages15:18
wgrantThe rule has been there from day 1.15:18
wgrantIt's never been enforced.15:18
tgm4883Note: We will not accept uploads of packages that are unmodified from their original source in Ubuntu or Debian, only packages that include your own changes.15:18
tgm4883wgrant, yea, I figured15:18
wgrantI'm not sure it actually has any purpose.15:18
bigjoolstgm4883: that's a policy, not a rule15:18
tgm4883wgrant, sounds like they don't want to over burden the build servers. No need to duplicate work15:19
tgm4883but yea, never enforced15:19
tgm4883On a different note, is it possible to have publishing dependencies on other packages in the same PPA? eg. I have a package that depends on another package (not build depends). If that first package fails to build, and the second package publishes, then users get broken software15:19
Laibschbigjools: how many times do I have to repeat myself?  "unchanged" is the keyword, OK?15:20
bigjoolsLaibsch: I'm trying to catch up the backscroll so sorry if I missed anything.  I'm happy to listen to you and explain why the service works as it does.15:20
maxbLaibsch: If 0.5.4-1 built successfully in maverick, the resulting binaries would not be "unchanged" from the binaries formerly built in lucid15:20
Laibschmaxb: the first build was for lucid, it failed15:21
Laibschand now I can't retry for maverick15:21
maxbLaibsch: that is not true, it succeeded15:22
bigjoolsand you can also copy the package internally to maverick15:22
bigjools(provided you don't need a rebuild specifically for maverick)15:22
tgm4883bigjools, he needs a build log for it15:22
bigjoolsfor maverick specifically?15:23
maxbbigjools: Laibsch does - the use case is using a PPA as a sync request build-tester15:23
tgm4883yea15:23
bitdancerOK, how do I log in to launchpad.net?  I get 'Invalid OpenID transaction'.  I've googled. I've cleared my cache and cookies.  I've made sure javascript is enabled for launchpad.net.  I still get that error and can't log in.15:23
tgm4883bigjools, apparently because the bug team told him he needed a PPA build log15:23

bigjoolsLaibsch: the bottom line is that PPAs are not a build testing service.  If you want to build repeatedly then you need to upload newer versions.  It has been like that for 3 years.15:25
tgm4883but IMHO, it's a build version bump, so it's still unchanged. But I might just think that because of how i've built things on a PPA before15:25
Laibschwhich I think is clearly the intention of allowing something like https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Uploading#Using%20packages%20from%20other%20distributions15:25
Laibschwhy else would you even need that15:26
Laibsch?15:26
Laibschif you force people to touch changelog?15:26
tgm4883"You may be able to use your PPA to build sources from other distributions that use .deb packages"15:26
Laibschor if supposedly you are not allowed to upload unchanged sources as some have been saying is not supported15:26
bigjoolsI really don't see the big deal about a version bump - it takes 10 seconds to do and re-upload.15:26
tgm4883Important: Version numbers must be unique. This has implications if you want to provide packages for multiple Ubuntu series at once:15:27
Laibschbigjools: I've until very recently never had a problem deleting a package and reuploading that shortly afterwards15:27
bigjoolsLaibsch: sorry that is not true15:27
Laibschbut I understand the #launchpad position15:27
bigjoolswe've *never* allowed that15:27
Laibschno need to go in circles15:27
Laibschbigjools: nonsense15:27
bigjoolsand you are free to look through the code history15:27
LaibschI know it was possible15:27
bigjoolsno, it was not15:27
tgm4883Laibsch, seems that page lets you know you can pull it from another another source (ie. a debian repo) and build it for another disto (ie. maverick) without changing the sources15:27
Laibschbigjools: you believe whatever you believe15:28
LaibschI know what I know15:28
tgm4883Laibsch, it does not say (in fact, it specifically says you cannot) have the same version numbers in the same PPA15:28
bigjoolsLaibsch: I am the lead developer on Soyuz, I've been there since day one of PPAs.  I *know*.15:28
bitdancerno one has a clue, eh?15:28
* bigjools gives up trying to help15:29
bitdancerDoesn't look like I can even file a bug report.15:29
bigjoolsplease, ask someone else15:29
tgm4883bitdancer, sorry, my question got lost in this other issue as well15:29
bitdancer:)15:29
=== Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-afk
tgm4883bigjools, I'll redirect at you, can you set publishing dependencies? I have a package that depends on another package (not build depends). If that first package fails to build, and the second package publishes, then uses get broken software.15:31
tgm4883and we use the PPA's to get newer builds to users every day :)15:31
wgrantThere's no way to do that automatically.15:32
bigjoolstgm4883: yeah that's a known issue around PPAs, because the old version gets superseded15:32
wgrantYour best bet may be to set up a staging PPA.15:32
bigjoolswhat he said15:32
wgrantAnd use an API script to watch for successful builds, then copy both across to the proper PPA.15:32
bigjoolstgm4883: but ideally you'd test the build locally first ;)15:32
tgm4883hmm, API might be the way to go15:32
tgm4883bigjools, we literally build every day for both trunk and from a fixes branch15:32
tgm4883pulling from upstream sources15:33
bigjoolstgm4883: is it a daily build?15:33
tgm4883I don't think we will be doing local builds first, although yea, that would be ideal15:33
tgm4883bigjools, yep15:33
bigjoolshave you tried recipes yet?15:33
tgm48832 daily builds actually, one for trunk, one for fixes15:33
tgm4883we haven't yet, but have talked about it15:33
bigjoolsit won't solve you problem but I thought I'd ask :)15:33
tgm4883we have it set up on a build server right now15:33
tgm4883builds only if there are changes upstream15:34
tgm4883which for trunk, usually means every day15:34
tgm4883I'll look into the API, see if we can't do something with that15:34
bigjoolstgm4883: the other way of doing it is to include the version in the package name. That's a little horrbile though :(15:35
tgm4883oh yea, thats not fun times15:35
tgm4883I've thought about setting hard dependencies on the version number, but that can get problematic15:36
bigjoolsthere's a bug somewhere about supporting configurable numbers of concurrent versions15:36
tgm4883yea, theres a few bugs I have found that would be helpful to have15:36
tgm4883apparently you are supposed to be able to have multiple releases in the changlog and build for all15:37
tgm4883ie, maverick, lucid, jaunty15:37
tgm4883all for the same entry15:37
wgrantSort of.15:37
wgrantThe changelog format supports it.15:37
wgrantBut no archive tools that I know of do.15:37
tgm4883yea, apparently debian doesn't support that either :/15:38
bigjoolswe might be implementing that in the near-ish future15:38
tgm4883ohh nice15:38
bigjoolsit's needed for Bin NMUs15:38
wgrantIt may have been implemented in Debian before package pools.15:38
wgrantBut they were introduced nearly a decade ago, which makes it impossible without mangling binary versions.15:38
tgm4883cause our build script builds 3 packages for all ubuntu supported distros from 2 branches15:38
tgm4883usually that means around 18 uploads?15:39
wgrantDo you need to build separately for each?15:39
bigjoolswhich package(s) are you working on?15:39
wgrantOr do the eg. Hardy binaries work all the way up to Maverick?15:39
wgrantIf so, you can copy the binaries from Hardy upwards.15:39
tgm4883wgrant, nope, hardy doesn't work on maverick15:39
tgm4883technically we don't build for hardy anymore though15:40
tgm4883bigjools, mythtv15:40
tgm4883bigjools, and mythplugins and myththemes15:40
bigjoolsah cool, I am a myth user15:40
tgm4883bigjools, sweet deal15:40
tgm4883we build 2 packages for each ubuntu release15:41
tgm4883whatever was shipped with that version, and +115:41
tgm4883so hardy doesn't get builds anymore because there are no upstream changes for 0.21 anymore15:41
tgm4883current version is 0.2315:41
tgm4883well, 0.23.115:42
tgm4883karmic will stop getting builds soon tool15:42
tgm4883too15:42
=== LinuxJedi|away is now known as LinuxJedi
bigjoolsI would have thought that daily builds only really make sense on the most recent LTS, non-LTS and dev version15:43
tgm4883bigjools, that is usually how it ends up based on the upstream release schedule15:44
bigjoolsgreat15:44
tgm4883but with mythtv, users tend to try and stick with what works15:44
tgm4883and update from the fixes branch15:44
tgm4883karmic will stop getting builds once 0.24 gets released, probably in about a month15:44
tgm4883karmic was released with 0.22, and also gets builds for 0.23 (per our policy of building 2 mythtv releases for each ubuntu release)15:45
=== Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha
tgm4883so if upstream doesn't release 0.24 for 18 months, we will build keep the karmic builds going until either karmic isn't supported anymore, or 0.24 gets released15:46
tgm4883but this is all way off topic. I'll go check out the LP API and see if we can do what we need. bigjools if you have any mythtv questions, stop by #ubuntu-mythtv15:47
boracasliCan I use google translate in launchpad translations?15:47
bigjoolstgm4883: sure thing - I've been using it for ~6 years now and stuff still confuses me :)15:48
vagraleHi! How can i rename project in launchpad?15:48
boracasliLaunchpad Translations prefer only to translate in their mother tongue to users?15:48
bigjoolsjtv ^15:48
boracasliLaunchpad Translations prefer only to translate in their mother tongue to users?15:49
jtvboracasli: I'm not sure what it is you want to do15:49
dpmhi boracasli, as we told you when you asked using the answers system, there is no integration between Launchpad and Google Translate. We also recommend only to translate in the languages the translator knows15:49
jtvGoogle Translate is definitely _not_ good enough to produce translations…15:49
jtvMaybe this is about translating the user interface?15:49
boracasliDavid Planella, auto-translated strings are deleted?15:50
boracasliin Ubuntu etc.15:50
jtvThey should not be approved.15:50
boracasliDavid Planella (dpm), auto-translated strings are deleted?15:50
jtvThere are two reasons:15:50
boracasliwhy?15:50
jtvboracasli: I just answered you15:50
boracasliwhat reasons15:50
dpmboracasli, jtv is already answering the question15:50
jtvBecause Google Translate is not good enough, as I already said, and has no knowledge of a project's or translation team's translation guidelines.15:51
boracasliand15:51
jtvIt's also not very consistent.15:51
dpmboracasli, furthermore, you need to join a translation team to submit translations to Ubuntu. I don't think any translation team would allow you to join them if you are not fluent in their language15:52
boracasliAre the strings translated with automatic translators such as Google Translate in ubuntu will be deleted? And I joint to any translation team.15:53
boracasliAre the strings translated with automatic translators such as Google Translate in ubuntu will be deleted? And I joint to any translation team. please answer15:54
dpmboracasli, we have already answered that question, please read it.15:54
jtvboracasli: stop shouting please15:54
boracasliIs Google Translate banned?15:55
jtvboracasli: please do not submit any google translate translations.15:55
tgm4883google isn't exactly a little known operation. I think it's safe to say that if google translate worked well enough for ubuntu translations, that canonical would already be using it on a mass scale15:55
boracasliWill you say "Stop doing this."?15:55
boracasliIf yes, say "Stop doing this."15:56
jtvboracasli: we're already saying that, and you're just not listening15:56
boracasliI'm submitting google translations15:56
* tgm4883 smacks head15:56
boracasliWill you say "Stop doing this."?If yes, say "Stop doing this."15:56
* dpm ignores further comments15:56
tgm4883"Stop doing this."15:56
boracasliLaunchpad accounts can banned?15:57
jtvboracasli: if you don't speak enough english to understand our answers, you probably shouldn't be translating15:57
boracasliI can speak enough.15:58
boracasliIs Launchpad has got a twitter?15:58
boracaslior canonical15:58
jtvlol15:58
jtvokay, that was a good joke—who are you really?15:58
boracasliIs Launchpad or Canonical has got a Twitter account?15:59
boracasliIn Soviet Russia, Launchpad buys Canonical!15:59
tgm4883Ubuntu çeviriler için google çevirmen kullanmayın15:59
bigjoolsboracasli: launchpadstatus is the twitter accont15:59
bigjoolsaccount, even15:59
tgm4883yes, I realize the irony in my above translated statement :)16:00
boracasliniye ubuntu çevirileri için google translate kullanmamı istemiyorsunuz16:00
boracasliI'm translated Moovida to Georgian with Google Translate16:01
tgm4883yeterli Ubuntu çeviriler için iyi değil çünkü. Ayrıca Ubuntu politikasına karşı kullanmaktır.16:02
boracaslitgm4883? Türk müsün16:02
tgm4883nope16:02
boracasliwhere are you from?16:02
tgm4883USA16:02
boracaslihmm16:02
boracaslireally do you know turkish?16:03
tgm4883no, ironically, I was using google translate16:03
boracasliyeterli Ubuntu çeviriler için iyi değil çünkü. Ayrıca Ubuntu politikasına karşı kullanmaktır. please translate to english16:03
boracaslibut no gtranslate16:03
tgm4883But this is why you shouldn't use google translator  ( Türk müsün ==   Do Turkey  )16:03
boracasliyes16:04
tgm4883so ^^ was ( because it is not good enough for Ubuntu translations. It is also against Ubuntu policy16:04
tgm4883I think this proves why not to use google translations for ubuntu16:05
boracasliÇünkü o, Ubuntu çevirileri için yeterince iyi değildir. Ayrıca Ubuntu ilkesine de aykırıdır.16:05
boracaslimy translation16:05
boracaslino gtranslate16:05
boracaslibut "canonical" is Canonical Ltd.16:07
tgm4883true, which is probably translated incorrectly16:07
tgm4883then there is also subtle differences. ie. trash isn't even universal between US english and UK english16:08
