maxbHrm... my dput is hanging after uploading packages (over sftp)00:10
chxhi. would it be possible to bzr upgrade lp;drupal to some more modern repository format...? (I know I asked before, maybe there are more people here now)00:41
spivchx: IIRC filing a question at answers.launchpad.net/launchpad-code is the way to do that (seeing as it's an import branch)00:44
compholioi think my PPA might be broken, is there someone on who can help me out?03:09
mwhudsoncompholio: maybe, what's the problem?03:11
compholiothis weekend i uploaded a package ending in ~karmic0 when i already had a package ending in ~karmic, launchpad accepted this but then failed later.  i talked with wgrant earlier and he said that this was a problem and that i should re-upload with ~karmic1, i did so but now it's not publishing that package03:12
compholioit's like it's stuck on the ~karmic0 package, waiting for that to finish (which will never happen)03:13
compholiowow, either you did something or it finally pushed through03:15
mwhudsoni didn't do anything :-)03:16
compholioit still lists ~karmic0 as pending, but at least it should work for users03:16
compholioi can live with those pending forever03:16
compholiowell, thanks for listening :)03:17
mwhudsonah yeah, i don't know what's going to happen there03:17
mwhudsoncan you delete the 'zombie' packages?03:17
compholiowhere would i even do that?03:18
compholio(it doesn't show as being published)03:18
mwhudsoni don't know03:19
compholioi think it'll be a zombie forever03:20
mwhudsoni guess we can clean up the database by hand03:21
compholioi suppose i could try figuring out the deletion POST and manually executing the request03:22
compholioi'm just hesitant to do that and possibly break things03:23
wgrantcompholio: The builds are stuck in limbo due to an unrelated bug.04:27
wgrantThat fix should be out in the next couple of days.04:27
wgrantBut the old package is now gone, so you can ignore it.04:27
compholiogreat, thanks for the info04:27
cwillu_at_workbac, who would I talk to about recovering a launchpad id?06:22

ftadanilos, hi, does LP care about PO-Revision-Date and POT-Revision-Date when importing from a bzr branch? I've uploaded an update of my chromium strings with older dates and lp doesn't seem to react at all (nothing new in the queue after 1h+))11:41
danilosfta, it doesn't care about them for bzr branch imports11:42
danilosfta, has the branch been scanned? (i.e. new revision shows up on the branch page)11:42
ftadanilos, good, thanks. I assume it's just slow then11:42
danilosfta, it shouldn't be that slow either11:43
ftadanilos, yep, https://code.launchpad.net/~chromium-team/chromium-browser/chromium-translations.head   rev511:43
fta(boohh, i'm bad with changelogs)11:44
ftadanilos, also, in the queue, it's confusing to see status = "Imported" and "Will be imported into Template blabla" at the same time. Done or not?11:47
danilosfta, it's "done"11:47
ftadanilos, shouldn't the "will be" go away then?11:48
danilosfta, yes, care to fix it? :)11:48
danilosfta, you can file a bug as well, but we are not going to worry about it anytime soon11:50
danilosand then, there's also bug 13399611:50

ftadanilos, i'll go for the bug (i already have a dozen or so of lp/soyuz bugs that are sitting there waiting for a good soul to give them some love, one more wont hurt me)11:54
danilosfta, now, about the problem, we've hit an exception and it seems to be related to either template renames or additions; I've filed it as bug 65507711:54

allenapara: I can't find any logs or OOPSes relating to simple-scan and 502 errors. How far did the upload progress?11:55
ftadanilos, i renamed some po files to match the ubuntu supported langs, could that be it?11:56
araallenap, just up 'til the very end. when the progress bar finishes, is when I get the 50211:56
ftadanilos, and next question, anything i should do to unbreak this import?11:57
allenapara: Oh no, that sucks. Sorry that I don't have any answers. I can't find anything in the LP code-base that would cause it either.11:57
danilosfta, I am trying to figure out what it might be: no .pot files have moved around, right?11:57
danilosfta, I am trying to figure out a workaround at the same time :)11:57
ftadanilos, no, just bzr mv a bunch of .po11:57
ftadanilos, but yesterday i disabled some templates in LP, the pot are still updated in the bzr branch though11:58
danilosfta, ah, that might be it... let's try re-enabling them and triggering the import again just to see if that's the problem11:58
araallenap, OK, no worries, thanks for your help11:59
ftadanilos, (you have the details in your mailbox (thread to Evan wrt chromium translations))11:59
danilosfta, yeah, I'll re-enable them temporarily (I can see them all listed on "full list of templates" on https://translations.launchpad.net/chromium-browser/translations/+templates)12:00
danilosfta, and I'll request a one-time import from the sync settings page12:01
ftadanilos, ok, no problem. those .pot are sane, it's just that there're no corresponding .po because upstream doesn't translate those strings at all.12:02
danilosfta, right, it should do no harm then12:03
danilosfta, we'll need to wait another 7 minutes for the script to run and then we'll know if that's the issue12:03
ftaok12:04
ftadanilos, seems better12:11
danilosfta, right, so we at least know what the problem is, thanks for complaining12:12
danilosfta, I'll try to get this scheduled for fixing soon, but I can't promise anything just now (we've got a lot of work on our hands atm)12:12
ftadanilos, great :)  marking 'deleted' the old po then..12:13
danilosfta, I've also left all the templates "active" for you, and I guess you can add template descriptions to point people that they should not translate them (not many will see/read that, but at least some might :)12:17
danilosfta, you can also set priority on them so they are listed in the order of priority: the higher number, the earlier in the list it will be12:17

ftadanilos, all pot files imported but not a single po (2h after the pot), is it normal or is there another issue?14:15
danilosfta, it's normal that they come later (.pot files are "approved" right when they are added to the queue, .po files need to wait for the auto-approver script to run which takes a while14:39

jelmerronny: it's implemented using bzr though you can have it import from git, svn or hg.18:09

jelmerronny: that wouldn't work in any case then since it exports from a set of bzr branches, the actual build happens in a tree without a .bzr directory afaik18:13

sinzuideryck, sladen, EdwinGrubbs. A bug supervisor was never able to configure the bug tracker, not do I think can he set the roles. but I suspect there was a collision on features. I believe the supervisor still needs to set guidelines/response and if he does not have a separate url for that, then someone need to make configure bugtracker work20:30
derycksinzui, so currently, only maintainer can set this?  *sigh*  I made some stupid mistakes with this email.20:31
sinzuideryck, quick, lets lad a change20:32
sinzuideryck, is the change needed for expiration or for guidelines/response20:32
derycksinzui, to re-enable bug expiry if they desire.20:33
sinzuideryck, :( that is a part of the widget, only the owner can monkey with the widget20:33

derycksinzui, I think bug supervisor should be able to change anything on configure-bugtracker, but I see why others might not want this.20:35
sinzuican a bug supervisor change the bug tracker to email or unknown?20:35

derycksinzui, I don't think we should change the rule.  It was dumb of me.  I was only thinking of enable bug expriy, which the bug supervisor should control.  the rest, not.20:37
sinzuideryck, upstream bug contact == bug supervisor. If I was the contact for Empathy (which does not use Lp), I would expect to be able to 1. remove myself, 2, add a security contact person, change guidelines, and yes change to something that allowed true bug syncing20:37
sladenderyck: sinzui: the only one I /got/ mail for is the one I can't access...20:37

Noldorinderyck, i have 13 projects and 22 emails :S23:46
deryckNoldorin, perhaps your email is used as a contact for a team that owns projects?23:47
Noldorinderyck, ah, perhaps23:47
deryckat any rate, it's a one time noise.  Better safe than sorry when changing people's settings, I think.23:47
Noldorinderyck, ok, well that explains at least,23:48
Noldorinderyck, yeah, no worries, i can put up with it as a one-off. it might however be advisable if you do it in the future that the email is only sent once to each recipient23:48
deryckNoldorin, sure, that's a good suggestion.  In this case, I sent by project, not person.  So yeah, if we ever do it again, we can do different.23:49
Noldorinderyck, fair enough, that would be good. well cheers for notifying anyway, no way i'm missing that message!23:50
deryckcheers23:50
