achiangif i'm hosting a project in LP, where would be an appropriate place for me to store documentation re:$project00:00
lifelesspopey: I'm totally fine with a bug being filed.00:01
lifelessachiang: in your source tree? (have a look at wikkid)00:01
wgrantpopey, lifeless: /projects is an unsearchable tag cloud.00:01
wgrantI don't know why the form on code.launchpad.net would point there.00:02
wgrantThat doesn't make sense.00:02
achianglifeless: i guess i could stick a readme in there. just didn't know what was common across projects hosted in LP00:02
popeyseems mpt reported this alread in bug 476364 :)00:05
ubot5Launchpad bug 476364 in Launchpad Bazaar Integration "Search from "Code" front page is completely broken (affected: 2, heat: 14)" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/47636400:05

mwhudsonpopey: luckily code.launchpad.net is very hard to navigate to!00:12
popeyi hope thats sarcasm? :)00:13
mwhudsonwell00:13
lifelessdespair00:13
popeyheh00:13
mwhudsonit's not entirely serious00:13
mwhudsonyeah, lifeless has it right00:13
popeymy thought process went like this 'ooh, apt.ubuntu.com, wonder where the code is, ooh, sil worked on it, I know, lp.net/~sil then click 'code', couldn't find it in his branches, then I am kind hazy about how I got to code.lp.net.. its entirely possible I deleted ~sil from the url and manually got there..00:16
mwhudsonpopey: almost certainly that's how you got there00:16
mwhudsoni agree it's a real problem00:16
wgrantWhat is apt.ubuntu.com?00:17
popeya redirector to apt://00:17
wgrantAh, for places that don't allow apt: links?00:18
popeyso people can post links online to apt.ubuntu.com/p/banshee  (for example)00:18
popeyya00:18
wgrantHandy.00:18
maxburgh, I thought it was broken, it took so long for software-centre to launch00:19
wgrantIt does tell you to wait :)00:20
popeyi get "You don't seem to be running Ubuntu" (on OSX in Chrome), i think it should link me to ubuntu.com/download :D00:21
wgrantBut something odd is going on. It takes a while for Chromium to even display the dialog asking if it should launch the external handler.00:21
poolieit would be nice to factor out the Quickly "add my ssh key to my account" thing01:32

herr_nilssonhej folks! is there a possibility to bulk-delete old suggestions for a whole language?02:12
lifeless\02:33
lifelessherr_nilsson: we don02:33
lifeless't have a precanned feature to do that.02:33
lifelessthere may be a bug asking for it - if not you might like to file one.02:33
herr_nilssonthanks! what a pity!.. well i guess i will file a bug then02:37
herr_nilssonsuch a feature would be great, because many "translators" translated low german (nds) templates into normal german (de) in the past and it is kind of annoying to dismiss all these wrong translations!02:39

jtvfta: the good news is, your translations export ran around the time I estimated (slightly earlier actually).  The bad news is that you exported a release series that doesn't have any translations.  Did you mean to set up exports for the "translations" release series?06:33
=== jtv is now known as jtv-afk
ftajtv-afk, hi, i'm not sure i understand what you mean. in the same page i have my import branch specified, i added the export branch08:07
=== jtv-afk is now known as jtv
jtvfta: you had the export branch configured for trunk, and that had no translation templates.08:12
ftajtv, did I? not sure how i did that as there's no series field there, just branch name08:13
jtvfta: the page where you set this is for a given series.08:13
ftajtv, is it fixable? or should i trash the branch and start from scratch?08:14
jtvNah, easily fixable08:14
jtvThis is trunk: https://translations.launchpad.net/chromium-browser/trunk08:14
jtvNote how it has exports configured.08:14
jtvThis is the "translations" release series:08:14
jtvhttps://translations.launchpad.net/chromium-browser/translations08:14
jtvThat one has imports configured.08:14
jtvI'll just de-configure the trunk one for you and make the translations series export to the same branch instead.08:15
jtvAh, I don't have privileges to do that.  :(08:15
jtvHang on, I'll see if I can rustle up someone who can (so you don't have to do the person/team dance again).08:16
ftajtv, too late, done08:20
jtvfta: oh well that solves it too.  :)08:21
jtvNext attempt around 05:00 UTC tomorrow…08:26
jtvfta: by the way, you can try all this out on the staging server.  The only hard part is, staging's code-hosting setup isn't copied over from the production one so you have to push the branch separately to staging.  Then you'll have a pretty complete sandbox for about a week, and it does the translations-to-branch exports much more frequently.  Every hour IIRC.08:27
jtvA branch URL on staging looks like lp://staging/~fta/chromium-browser/my-chromium-branch08:28
jtv(We can afford to do more frequent exports there exactly because staging doesn't have any branches in its bzr by default)08:29

hrwsomething broke with some bzr branches?09:37
hrw10:38 hrw@home:gwgw$ bzr clone lp:ubuntu/gcc-4.4-armel-cross09:37
hrwbzr: ERROR: Server sent an unexpected error: ('error', '<Fault -1: "Unexpected Zope exception: CannotHaveLinkedBranch: <Distribution \'Ubuntu\' (ubuntu)> cannot have linked branches.">')09:37
hrwor from other side: Are branches renamed after each ubuntu release?09:38
persiaRather, they ought be branched.  https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/maverick/gcc-4.4-armel-cross/maverick seems live.09:39
persiahttps://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/natty/gcc-4.4-armel-cross/natty seems dead.09:40
persiajames_w is usually the expert for this sort of thing.09:40
hrwthx persia09:41
persiaTry branching lp:~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/maverick/gcc-4.4-armel-cross/maverick as a short-term workaround.09:42
hrwpersia: anyway I had lp:/ubuntu/ working and today had to clone lp:/ubuntu/maverick/ one09:42
persiaYou can always also branch from local branches, and it takes -r so you can branch from an older revision.09:43
* persia has done that for sponsors that wanted to sponsor bzr branches for SRUs for releases predating the introduction of UDD09:43
hrwpersia: I use git-bzr-ng instead of touching bzr directly09:44
nigelbhrw: mixing git and bzr a bit? :)09:47
hrwnigelb: using git to do all changes, rebases etc and then "git bzr push" to launchpad09:48
nigelboh, I didn't know that was possible09:48
hrwnigelb: I do not feel comfortable with bzr09:48
hrwhttp://github.com/termie/git-bzr-ng - not perfect but does job09:49
nigelboh, nice!09:49
nigelbI've, on several occasions, done git status on a bzr branch09:49

maxbhrw: lp:ubuntu/SOURCEPACKAGENAME is currently broken because natty is initialized but not branched yet09:54

hrwmaxb: thx09:54
hrwmaxb: 10.10 is first release with my packages09:54
persiamaxb, Is branching the release on the checklist of release open tasks?10:04
wgrantpersia: Yes. But it's awaiting a cherrypick.11:27

kaioh sweet, so if I flick through the launchpad faq too fast, I get locked out...14:42
jelmerhi Kai14:48
jelmerkai: How do you mean? I don't think think we have a rate limit you can trigger by just browsing.14:49
kaijelmer: that's what launchpad told me, though14:51
kaiI don't have the exact wording anymore, but it basically told me that I was clicking links too fast, and that I should go back and spend some time reading the previous page, and that I'd be locked out for a longer period if I triggered this mechanism again14:52

kaiuh, now do I need to sign the code of conduct or don't I need to sign the code of conduct to get a ppa? instructions seem to differ here16:11
kaialso, I seem to have typoed my ppa in dput and now I don't get to run dput again with the correct path16:14
kaihow do I fix that?16:14
jmlkai: you need to sign the CoC. Where do the instructions differ?16:15
jmlkai: sorry, I don't know about dput.16:15
kaijml: it says "you need to sign the CoC to activate a PPA", but the packaging instructions for ubuntu don't mention that and I seem to be able to get a ppa set up without signing the CoC16:16
kaiah, found the instructions on fixing this16:17
jmlkai: where does it say "you need to sign the CoC to activate a PPA"? URL?16:17

kaijml: I can't find it in my open tabs right now16:25
jmlkai: no worries.16:26
kaibut it seems like I can open as many ppas as I like without signing the CoC, I just can't put anything into them16:26
jmlI see.16:26
kaijml: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#Activating%20a%20PPA16:27

ftajtv, grrr, the lp spec asks for the gettext files to be named template/template.pot + template/lang.po, but for the po files, lp exports template/template-lang.po.. messing up my branches :(18:55
jtvfta: yes, that's a thing we've been wanting for ages.  The problem is, how do we deal with people putting multiple templates in the same directory?18:56

ftajtv, i assume that if i rename my files in the branch, i will lose all the proposed translations, right?19:05
jtvfta: you mean, rename them to overwrite other translation files you already have in the branch?19:06
ftajtv, bzr mv fr.po blabla-fr.po19:07
jtvfta: that wouldn't hurt your translations (of course the next export would still produce a new fr.po, so you'd have two files).  But why would you want to rename that way instead of the other way?19:07
ftajtv, i requested a manual export. got a tar.gz with that in it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/511827/19:09
jtvfta: yes, but there's no point in following that convention anywhere except in the manual exports.  It only makes things harder.19:10
ftajtv, do you mean the bzr export will be different?19:11
jtvfta: yes, bzr export is newer and more sensible.  That'll give you a fr.po in the same directory as its template, and so on.19:11
jtvIt's only the manual export that uses the troublesome names.19:12
ftajtv, i wanted to work on my re-import script; but as i'm still waiting for the 1st bzr export, i fetched a tarball thinking it will look similar19:12
ftaok19:12
ftaso i give up for today19:12

huobinIf I have one branch in my project on launchpad (trunk), how should I proceed to split a "frozen" version for releasing in a new branch (say, "release-1.0")?19:49
huobinI can only create a new (empty?) branch or import a branch.19:54
jtvhuobin: you can branch off the trunk branch: bzr branch lp:my-project19:55
jtvand then you push that to a new branch, which you can use as the development branch for your new release series19:56
huobinSo there's no way to fork the branch? I thought I had to do something so launchpad knows where I made the split at.19:56
huobinOK, thanks19:56
jtvThat does "fork" the branch.  But because this is distributed revision control, you can still merge individual changes from one branch into the other later.19:57
huobinI first create the branch, (release-0.1), then create new series (like lp:project/0.1) using this branch, and then do bzr push lp:project/0.1 ?20:03
