[01:23] <stefanct> hello
[01:23] <stefanct> can someone pls shade some light on this error message: Rejected:
[01:23] <stefanct> Unhandled exception processing upload: need more than 0 values to unpack
[01:24] <stefanct> i am receiving it when i try to upload to my private ppa at ubuntu's launchpad
[01:24] <stefanct> first .deb package i ever try to upload there...
[01:25] <micahg> stefanct: you can't upload .deb packages, only source packages
[01:26] <stefanct> ic... and it builds it on its own then? guess i missed some basics :P
[01:26] <wgrant> stefanct: How did you construct the .changes file that you uploaded?
[01:26] <wgrant> It has a .dsc and a .deb, which no tool I know of creates.
[01:27] <stefanct> with dpkg-genchanges
[01:27] <wgrant> Ah, it is very rare that one would use that directly.
[01:28] <stefanct> there are too many ways to create all that stuff :)
[01:28] <wgrant> See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete.
[01:28] <wgrant> You need to upload a source package (usually built with 'debuild -S')
[01:28] <stefanct> i will, thanks
[02:10] <EvilPhoenix> what specifically influences the build scores for source packages uploaded to a PPA?
[02:11] <micahg> EvilPhoenix: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/BuildScores
[04:23] <EvilPhoenix> so does the urgency= part of the changelog determine the priority order for the building on ppas?  such as emergency > high > medium > low
[04:23] <mwhudson> pretty sure not
[04:24] <micahg> technically yes, but most people ignore them and unless there
[04:24] <micahg> s really a priority for it, it's just not nice :)
[04:25] <EvilPhoenix> so such a priority being, say, an urgent patch to update and fix a very large vulnerability or similar reasoning?
[04:26] <micahg> EvilPhoenix: IMHO, something like that would qualify if it's for a derivative distro w/a package that's not in the main archive
[04:27] <EvilPhoenix> right.  that's what i thought.
[07:45] <fta2> hi, several times a day, i get some annoying "bzr: ERROR: Invalid http response for https://xmlrpc.launchpad.net/bazaar/: Unable to handle http code 502: Bad Gateway"
[07:53] <spiv> lifeless: ^
[08:09] <lifeless> fta2: hi, please file a bug
[08:10] <lifeless> fta2: though if you had that about 16-24 hours ago, it was due to a server farm failure we have since fixed
[08:13] <fta2> ok, i'll file a bug next time i see it then
[09:09] <Laney> Does anyone know of a way to have a PPA package be preferred over the archive (i.e. have a higher version number), but not potentially screw over users at upgrade due to update-manager disabling the entry?
[11:02] <ssam> where should i report launchpad comment spam?
[11:05] <ssam> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ekiga/+bug/30578 comment by brad
[11:21] <bigjools> ssam: file a question reporting the issue on https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad and an admin will delete the spam
[11:24] <ssam> bigjools, thanks
[12:22] <maxb> Speaking of admins, can I get some feedback on likely times to someone looking at my pendinq questions on https://answers.launchpad.net/~canonical-losas/+assignedquestions?field.actions.search=Search&field.status=OPEN ?
[12:26] <wgrant> maxb: We're unfortunately down 2 LOSAs at the moment.
[12:26] <wgrant> Although we may regain one tomorrow.
[12:28] <maxb> For the sake of people who aren't me and don't lurk here, it would be a nicer experience if someone could send holding replies to questions like this
[12:29] <maxb> Also, one of my questions is a simple "please run one of your standard scripts", but is 3 weeks old
[21:03] <antono> hello all. i need help with amd63 build of rubinius in my ppa
[21:03] <antono> its ok if i build package locally with debuild
[21:04] <antono> when i upload my package to ppa it builded ok for i386 but package is empty for amd64
[21:46] <thumper> hmm... missed him
[21:50] <EvilPhoenix> thumper:  anywhere I can suggest something about launchpad?
[21:50] <EvilPhoenix> like a feature change or something
[21:50] <thumper> EvilPhoenix: suggest away
[21:50] <thumper> EvilPhoenix: or file a bug :-)
[21:51] <EvilPhoenix> thumper:  the teams / subteams thing.  if the team that's parent to a subteam is affiliated with a project, shouldn't that project affiliation trickle down to the subteam as well>?
[21:52] <EvilPhoenix> if my sentence structure is confusing, forgive me because i've been up for about 36 straight hours :P
[21:52] <thumper> EvilPhoenix: otp right now, I'll look in detail in a few minutes
[22:11] <thumper> EvilPhoenix: looking and thinking now
[22:12] <thumper> EvilPhoenix: my answer would be kinda
[22:12] <thumper> EvilPhoenix: why is this an issue?
[22:44] <EvilPhoenix> thumper:  just was curious, as a project I'm working on has a core developers team, and then a subteam for the Debian maintainers
[22:44] <EvilPhoenix> Debian maintainers doesnt get to be seen as affiliated with the project on their team page
[22:44] <thumper> EvilPhoenix: perhaps it should
[22:44] <thumper> feel free to file a bug :)
[22:45] <EvilPhoenix> location to file?
[22:45] <lifeless> EvilPhoenix: what do you mean 'affiliated with the project'
[22:45] <EvilPhoenix> sorry, kinda staring at debuild/terminal atm
[22:45] <lifeless> EvilPhoenix: we don't have any affiliation mechanism, so I guess you mean something like driver/maintainer roles ?
[22:46] <lifeless> EvilPhoenix: the lp bug tracker is https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad
[22:46] <EvilPhoenix> lifeless:  yeah, sorta
[22:46] <EvilPhoenix> lifeless:  here: https://launchpad.net/~bbot+core+developers
[22:46] <bburhans> So, I've accidentally created duplicate lp accounts, and I see no interface to nuke one in order to allow that email to be added to my primary account :(
[22:46] <EvilPhoenix> subteam is BBot Debian Maintainers group.
[22:47] <EvilPhoenix> lifeless:  https://launchpad.net/~bbot-debian-maintainers  <--- that related projects thing isnt pushed down to the subteam
[22:47] <wgrant> bburhans: You can merge the accounts at https://launchpad.net/people/+requestmerge
[22:47] <bburhans> wgrant: excellent, thanks.
[22:47] <lifeless> EvilPhoenix: ok, thats probably oversight
[22:47] <lifeless> we should do teamparticipation expansion there
[22:48] <EvilPhoenix> ^ indeed
[22:48] <EvilPhoenix> should i file it as a bug?
[23:16] <EvilPhoenix> https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/735178  <-- submitted bug for the issue i explained
