| jwal | Do you have the bug link for the build-dep generation idea? | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| jelmer | not here, though it's not much more than what I just described - a programmatic way to update the source dependencies based on the upstream branch | 00:03 |
| jwal | Just guessing, was this suggested to support an maven-based build? | 00:05 |
| jelmer | jwal: nope | 00:06 |
| jwal | Are we going to end up with the recipe being any shell/python script with the power to install dependencies at will? | 00:07 |
| jelmer | jwal: if we're going to end up with something like that it would be about updating the existing debian/control file's Build-Depends{,-Indep}, not about installing packages itself | 00:08 |
| jwal | You're right again, of course | 00:10 |
| jwal | If you derive the Build-Depends{,-Indep}, would you want the result of that derivation to be included in the manifest? | 00:11 |
| achiang | wgrant: i thought LP was smart enough to have a dependency-wait state. say i upload package A to a ppa, and B has a build-dep on it | 00:14 |
| achiang | wgrant: shouldn't LP wait on building B until A is done? | 00:14 |
| achiang | wgrant: i only ask because i thought i saw that behavior before, and i'm seeing different behavior now | 00:15 |
| wgrant | achiang: It will try to build B, but sbuild will notice the deps are missing. It will report that back to LP, and it will depwait. | 00:15 |
| achiang | (but i could be quite wrong) | 00:15 |
| wgrant | But if the deps are present but uninstallable, it cannot be automatically retried, so it will fail to build. | 00:15 |
| achiang | wgrant: does it only work for missing packages? or is smart enough even to notice versioned dependencies? | 00:15 |
| jelmer | jwal: probably, it'd be hard to guarantee the manifest is deterministic otherwise | 00:17 |
| wgrant | achiang: It works for versioned dependencies too. | 00:17 |
| wgrant | Minus a couple of rare glitches that I forget the details of. | 00:17 |
| achiang | wgrant: hm, so if i see different behavior, should i file a bug? | 00:17 |
| jwal | jelmer: Would I be right to assume that the manifest currently does not contain the source tree, just the bzr revision numbers that were merged? Do you have an example manifest somewhere? | 00:18 |
| wgrant | achiang: You should tell me, then I'll tell you if you should file a bug :) | 00:18 |
| achiang | heh | 00:18 |
| jelmer | jwal: yes, that's right. | 00:19 |
| jelmer | jwal: manifests basically are recipes with revisions explicitly specified everywhere | 00:19 |
| jwal | Hence you don't want to run a script with the power to modify the source tree | 00:19 |
| jwal | Like a log | 00:19 |
| jelmer | jwal: right, building a particular manifest should result in the same exact tree being constructed each time. | 00:21 |
| jwal | Jumping backwards for a moment, there is some kind of hook prior to building the source package. dpkg-source --before-build even has a special source format called "3.0 (bzr)". That does not seem to help here, though, we'd have to add extra behaviour. | 00:30 |
| cjwatson | 3.0 (bzr) isn't TBH all that desperately useful (speaking as its author | 00:30 |
| cjwatson | ) | 00:30 |
| cjwatson | it was an experiment | 00:30 |
| jwal | Ah :) | 00:31 |
| poolie | hello cjwatson | 00:33 |
| poolie | i'd like to look at https://dev.launchpad.net/LEP/BuildFromBranchIntoMain with you sometime | 00:33 |

| poolie | sure | 00:34 |
| poolie | what does Primary mean here? | 00:34 |
| wgrant | The primary archive. | 00:34 |
| wgrant | PPAs have main too. | 00:34 |
| wgrant | In fact, they *only* have main. | 00:35 |

| poolie | the name is just what it's tended to be called in the past | 00:35 |
| wgrant | Given that it's on the LP dev wiki, in particular. | 00:35 |
| cjwatson | poolie: ok, maybe not at past midnight local though :) | 00:36 |
| poolie | sure :) no rush | 00:36 |
| cjwatson | I'm just waiting for my router's Debian upgrade to finish | 00:36 |

| deryck | exarkun, you have to set the status on the merged branch to "Merged" | 14:49 |
| deryck | exarkun, I don't believe there's anything that does this automatically on lp. groups have scripts or merge tools that do this for them, I think. | 14:49 |
| deryck | abentley could confirm this ^^ | 14:50 |
| abentley | deryck, the branch scanner automatically detects merges and marks them. | 14:50 |
| exarkun | Should I report a bug, then? Or am I just too impatient? | 14:51 |
| deryck | ah, see there. Glad we asked abentley :-) | 14:52 |
| abentley | exarkun, I'll have a look. | 14:52 |
| abentley | exarkun, we detected a merge in the opposite direction, from lp:game => lp:~game-hackers/game/installation-instructions and lp:~amacleod/game/client-invocation => lp:~game-hackers/game/installation-instructions | 14:55 |
| exarkun | That's a funny thing to have detected. | 14:55 |
| exarkun | Am I using bzr wrong? Or is it a bug in the branch scanner? | 14:56 |
| abentley | That was at 12:55. | 14:56 |
| abentley | At 13:00, I see Merge detected: lp:~game-hackers/game/installation-instructions => lp:game | 14:57 |
| abentley | And it says "lp:~game-hackers/game/installation-instructions now Merged", which I believe means it set the branch to Merged. | 14:58 |
| exarkun | But it shows up on https://code.launchpad.net/game as "Development" | 14:59 |
| abentley | exarkun, after it was marked merged, it looks like another revision was pushed. | 15:03 |
| exarkun | The last revision on the branch is divmod.com-20110209125926-8d98psdzhqru0vrs and that revision was also included in the merge | 15:05 |
| exarkun | So maybe the scanner noticed the revision after it noticed the merge, but the merge happened after the revision | 15:06 |
| abentley | exarkun, I can say for sure that pushing new revisions will mark a branch as "development". I'm not sure why it didn't get re-marked as Merged. | 15:07 |
| abentley | exarkun, I guess you should file a bug. | 15:14 |
| exarkun | abentley: Okay, thanks! | 15:14 |

| mtaylor | hey all - can anybody suggest either a best-practice guide to translations in python projects or a project using translations i can look at to see how they're doing it? | 16:53 |
| dpm | mtaylor, I'd recommend giving quickly a try. It will create the skeleton of a python app for you with translations enabled. You can just create a test project and have a look at the structure. For example: | 17:01 |
| dpm | quickly create -t ubuntu-application testproject | 17:01 |
| mtaylor | dpm: good call. thanks | 17:01 |
| dpm | running that command will create the test project for you | 17:01 |
| mtaylor | dpm: there doesn't seem to be any translation infrastructure in the results of that :( | 17:03 |
| mtaylor | dpm: I take that back... | 17:03 |
| dpm | hmm, there should be: gettext initialized, using python-distutils-extra to manage translations, etc. Let me have a look... | 17:04 |
| mtaylor | dpm: yeah - my bad, I see it now... so, given such a branch, how does integration with launchpad translations work? | 17:05 |
| mtaylor | dpm: does everything do the magical right thing? | 17:05 |
| dpm | mtaylor, absolutely! :) . Just run "python ./setup.py build_i18n" to create the po folder and the po/testproject.pot template. Then commit the .pot file and you're ready to enable translations in LP: | 17:06 |
| mtaylor | dpm: sweet. thanks! I was trying to do all of this with babel and it was starting to give me hives. this seems must more integrated and happy | 17:07 |
| dpm | mtaylor, here you'll find the steps and tips for enabling translations in LP: hhttps://help.launchpad.net/Translations/YourProject/BestPractices#Set%20up%20your%20project%20in%20Launchpad | 17:09 |
| dpm | once you've set up the bzr branch, enabling translations should be a cuple of clicks away | 17:09 |
| dpm | couple | 17:10 |
| mtaylor | dpm: totally - those steps I'm good with - it's just that all the projects I'd done in the past were c/c++ and intltool | 17:10 |
| dpm | mtaylor, ahh yeah. Integration works even slightly better with intltool-based projects, as LP can automatically generate the .pot file from the branch without you having to worry about anything else than committing | 17:11 |
| mtaylor | yup. that's a thing of beauty | 17:12 |
| thumper | hi mtaylor | 17:12 |
| dpm | absolutely :) | 17:12 |
| mtaylor | the part that's been hard to find is a best-practices doc for how to get the python project itself set up for translations... so the quickly suggestion was quite handy | 17:12 |
| mtaylor | hi thumper | 17:12 |
| mtaylor | thumper: write better docs for things you don't work on! | 17:12 |
| thumper | ah... whut? | 17:13 |

| mounir | Does launchpad mailing list supports aliases? | 18:39 |
| lifeless | what do you mean? | 18:40 |
| mounir | The reason I am asking is the following: Linaro Burndown charts are picking up Work Items for project members | 18:41 |
| mounir | but these WI's are not for Linaro Blueprints | 18:41 |
| mounir | So I am trying to figure out a way to differentiate between Work Items for the same team member, maybe by using aliases | 18:42 |
| mounir | So the idea is to have 2 or more aliases for the same team member, then use an alias for Linaro and anothe alias for something else | 18:44 |
| === deryck[lunch] is now known as deryck | ||
| lifeless | mounir: why not just filter by project? | 18:50 |
| mounir | lifeless: I have no control over the program that does the burdown charting, I think it is a python program, the last I heard was it was very hard to implement | 18:52 |
| lifeless | mounir: have a chat to james_w - its a very simple program really. | 18:53 |
| lifeless | mounir: but to answer the question, launchpad accounts have no aliasing facility; a login is a single account, and that account is linked to all activity of that login | 18:54 |
| mounir | lifeless: That is who I was talking with James-w, I think it is a function of how much he has on his plate | 18:54 |
| lifeless | if someone wants two accounts, they need to have two signons, and each singon needs a unique email address | 18:55 |
| mounir | lifeless: So aliases is not supported? | 18:55 |
| james_w | mounir, this is lool's workitems showing up on the kernel team's page? | 18:55 |
| lifeless | mounir: no, we have no concept of account aliases | 18:55 |
| mounir | James_w yes and Mathias in Toolchain as well | 18:55 |
| lifeless | and frankly, changing the WI tracker will be massively less work than adding account aliases to LP | 18:56 |
| lifeless | we could, but this doesn't seem like a particularly compelling use case for adding them; and they would have considerable UI and performance impact | 18:56 |
| james_w | right, I've said that I don't think it's a big problem, and that we can easily fix it by removing the people from the teams if they are not part of the team | 18:56 |
| james_w | if you disagree, and we can't fix it by removing them then you need to tell me that it is important and we can change the way the data is gathered | 18:57 |
| mounir | James_w, removing people from the team is not a solution really, as I forsee this problem creeping on us all the time now and the future. I have asked the team Leads and they have rejected the idea | 18:58 |
| james_w | why would it creep? | 18:59 |
| mounir | New members may join the team (let us the toolchain WG) but they have other item in other projects they are handling | 18:59 |
| mounir | s/let us/let say/ | 19:00 |
| james_w | well, that's not the issue with lool | 19:00 |
| james_w | or Mattias | 19:00 |
| james_w | and I would contend that the team leads want to know when engineers are spending time on other projects | 19:00 |
| mounir | James_w how it is not? they have WI's under other projects and these WI's are showing on the Linaro groups | 19:01 |
| james_w | mounir, because they aren't part of the team really. | 19:01 |
| mounir | James_w, this is messing up the Status of the releases, we don't know the correct status of Linaro releases for a particular group. | 19:02 |
| james_w | fair enough | 19:02 |
| james_w | I just want to understand which issues you are concerned about, and come up with the right fix for all of them | 19:03 |
| mounir | as additional items are showing as art of their work on Linaro | 19:03 |
| mounir | James_w, maybe we have to move this discussion from this channel and bring up on the email | 19:03 |
| james_w | if you want to have Loïc be a member of ~linaro-kernel-wg, despite him being in OCTO, then I can make changes such that his workitems won't show up on the kernel team page | 19:03 |
| james_w | however, that does nothing about the other issue you bring up, and toolchain engineers who work on "non-toolchain" projects too | 19:04 |
| mounir | James_w, don't make special case for LooL, as I said Mathias has the same issue, we need a general solution | 19:04 |
| james_w | well, I would fix it for Mattias and Loïc, and it would allow you to add anyone else to the list that you like | 19:05 |
| james_w | however, it wouldn't deal with the other issue at all | 19:05 |
| mounir | James_w, can you send you suggested solution to the linaro.org mail and copy the Team leads, if they are ok with it, I should be as well | 19:06 |
| james_w | mounir, sure. | 19:06 |
| mounir | James_w, thnx | 19:07 |

| poolie | this is often a problem when rebuilding something that came from ubuntu or debian | 21:48 |
| landrover | poolie: it's daily build from bzr code, which should fetch the code from bzr (there is not tarball for upstream's git master branch updated daily) | 21:49 |
| landrover | I am referring to https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/SourceBuilds/Recipes | 21:49 |

| nhandler | Hmm...I just tried using the +contactuser page to send a user a message. I get an info box below the one about the maintenance box saying my message was sent. However, I also see a "Sorry, you can't do this right now" message. Was my email sent? | 23:20 |
| wgrant | nhandler: That's a good question. I wouldn't think so (mail sending is tied to the transaction, and committing that would have failed). | 23:27 |
| wgrant | But I don't know for sure. | 23:27 |
