| docdrum | Hi! I'm using a BSD-licensed library in my own project. Is it allowed to use launchpad to host a fork of the lib and the .deb packages if I'm not the 'owner' of the library? | 12:57 |
|---|---|---|
| diwic | docdrum, since the library is BSD licensed the owner has granted you that right, as well as many other rights. | 13:33 |

| docdrum | diwic: OK, thanks! I was unsure b/c the launchpad-docs only talks about 'your project'. | 13:40 |
| docdrum | I'm (quite, ianal2) sure about the licensing terms, just wondering if launchpad allowed this usage | 13:42 |

| gustonegro | hi, I'm getting an regject email when I try to upload a source | 22:31 |
| gustonegro | the email points to here: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/UploadErrors | 22:31 |
| gustonegro | the reason is because: File <UPLOADED_FILE> already exists in <LOCATION> | 22:32 |
| gustonegro | however....I deleted that package already. I don't have any packages in my PPA | 22:32 |
| gustonegro | are they not really deleted? | 22:33 |
| === matsubara is now known as matsubara-afk | ||
| maxb | gustonegro: You can never replace a file in a PPA with one with different contents, even after deleting it | 22:58 |
| gustonegro | maxb: why is that? | 22:59 |
| lifeless | because its part of a federated database | 23:02 |
| lifeless | every user of the ppa makes the assumption that per-package files never change contents | 23:02 |
| gustonegro | hmm...so what can I do? | 23:03 |
| gustonegro | there are no users of the ppa yet. I just want to delete the old one and make a new one. | 23:03 |
| lifeless | the old what? | 23:03 |
| gustonegro | the old package | 23:04 |
| gustonegro | here it says I have no published packages: https://launchpad.net/~august-alien/+archive/ppa | 23:06 |
| lifeless | you need to use a new version number for the upstream | 23:06 |
| lifeless | e.g. add +test1 to it | 23:07 |
| gustonegro | add +test1 to the package name? | 23:07 |
| gustonegro | can I do that with dput ? | 23:07 |
| gustonegro | could someone explain what this all means or point me to some docs on the matter? | 23:18 |
| lifeless | debian/control defines your version | 23:19 |
| lifeless | every upload must be unique. | 23:19 |
| lifeless | -> you must change it every time | 23:19 |
| lifeless | the upstream part defines the tarball that is looked for | 23:19 |
| lifeless | to change that you change the upstream part and the tarball name. | 23:19 |
| gustonegro | what is an upstream? I've read all the docs and see it all the time, but never is it defined. | 23:20 |
| gustonegro | sorry for the naive question.....maybe there is a better forum for that. | 23:21 |
| gustonegro | so if I make a mistake in a upload, I always have to go back and rebuild the package....even if it was just a packaging mistaeke? | 23:22 |
| lifeless | yes | 23:23 |
| lifeless | after you dput you can never reuse the version number | 23:23 |
| gustonegro | wow | 23:23 |
| gustonegro | so , I have to set a version number by changing the package name? | 23:24 |
| lifeless | what you normally do is leave the tarball unchanged | 23:25 |
| lifeless | and change the packaging only resulting in a new *diff* reusing the same tarball | 23:25 |
| lifeless | but because you are trying to upload a changed tarball, thats why the problem is happening | 23:25 |
| lifeless | so in this special case (because you are learning) | 23:25 |
| lifeless | you need to change the tarball version [and package version] to be able to upload | 23:26 |
| gustonegro | for that I just rename the tarball and change the "Source" section of the control file? | 23:26 |
| maxb | Why would you change the package name? You want to change the package version | 23:28 |
| gustonegro | maxb: where is the package version set? I don't see it any where except in how I named the .orig.tar.gz tarball? | 23:29 |
| lifeless | maxb: he doesn't have the old tarball anymore... contents conflict | 23:30 |
| maxb | Sure... but that's still only cause to change the version, not the name | 23:34 |
| lifeless | right | 23:34 |
| lifeless | but the 'name' of a tarball includes the version | 23:34 |
| maxb | gustonegro: the version is set from the top entry in debian/changelog | 23:34 |
| lifeless | maxb: you're binding the terms differently | 23:34 |
| maxb | So, yes, the file may need to be renamed, but nothing in debian/control needs to change | 23:35 |
| lifeless | right | 23:35 |
| lifeless | gustonegro: ^ whats your current tarball name | 23:35 |
| lifeless | gustonegro: and whats the first line in your debian/changelog | 23:35 |
