| Kamping_Kaiser | (i asked this yesterday too, so sorry for the repeat). how can i get an upstrema bugtracker updated in LP? freeciv has moved from rt.freeciv.org to gna.org (/?project=freeciv) | 05:52 |
|---|---|---|
| wgrant | Kamping_Kaiser: You'll need to contact the project owner. They can change it to gna.org at <https://bugs.launchpad.net/freeciv/+configure-bugtracker>. That bugtracker is already registered at <https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/bugtrackers/gna.org>, so it should just be a matter of selecting it on that page. | 05:59 |
| wgrant | Kamping_Kaiser: However, it doesn't *really* matter. | 06:00 |
| wgrant | Kamping_Kaiser: You can still add bugwatches to gna.org without it being changed officially. | 06:00 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | wgrant: ok. i'm not sure who the owner is, so i'll have to go and check. | 06:01 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | wgrant: noted that its not too important - thanks :) | 06:01 |
| wgrant | Anyway, flight boarding. | 06:02 |
| * wgrant vanishes. | 06:02 | |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gl, enjoy | 06:04 |

| gusg | I'm trying to push a branch of a project on launchpad, but it looks like the project on launchpad is using an older version of Bazaar, so I get an error "different rich-root support" | 12:28 |

| frafu | Hello, I am an administrator of a team in launchpad. The team has several members. Could anybody please tell me whether launchpad provides an email address that can be used for the team? | 13:44 |
| frafu | I can for example imagine, that launchpad provides an email like <team-name@launchpad.net> that would direct any email sent to that address to every member of the team. | 13:48 |
| frafu | that would direct any email sent to that address to every member of the team? | 13:49 |
| Peng | Well, it supports mailing lists. | 13:51 |
| maxb | Team admins can contact team members via a web form. | 14:03 |
| maxb | If the team is set up with a launchpad mailing list, you can send email to that, which will reach the subset of members who are subscribed to the list | 14:03 |
| maxb | There's no direct email interface to contacting an entire team | 14:03 |
| frafu | maxb: Thanks for the answer. Is there a reason why this has not been implemented? Should I file a bug requesting the feature? | 14:08 |
| maxb | Personally I do not think it would be a useful feature | 14:13 |
| maxb | It would open up a new channel to be abused by spam, and there is no reason to be contacting all team members, for the vast majority of Launchpad teams. | 14:14 |
| maxb | For those that do, there's the existing mailing list feature | 14:14 |
| frafu | maxb: In fact, the team I had in mind was the devel team of the application named Onboard hosted on launchpad. The idea was to use the contact address of the team for the Onboard application. | 14:22 |
| frafu | maxb: A mailing list only moves the spamming problem to the list, I suppose. | 14:23 |
| maxb | frafu: well yes, but the existing mailing list infrastructure takes care of users (un)subscribing whilst remaining membrs of the team, and archiving | 14:51 |
| frafu | maxb: It might be worth setting up a mailing list for Onboard. I will have to think about it. Thanks for your help and explanations. | 15:11 |
| xexaxo_ | hi guys and gals | 16:52 |
| xexaxo_ | for a while now I've been involded with the nouveau project and I've noticed that some lauchpad "users" are too busy to actually state their issue on fd.o | 16:55 |
| xexaxo_ | eg. Ubuntu(mostly) user has an issue and report it to launchpad, after a while he/she get refered to bugs.fd.o | 16:56 |
| xexaxo_ | *note*, the user(s) do not know at all how to report bugs, they simply write a single line and link to launchpad | 16:57 |
| xexaxo_ | do not know = have not checked the clearly defined "How to report bugs section" | 16:58 |
| xexaxo_ | I don't believe it's an launchpad issue although #ubuntu people had reffered me to this channel | 16:59 |
| xexaxo_ | after all this rant, I would like to ask you only one thing | 16:59 |
| xexaxo_ | Would you mind explaining to the users that launchpad and fd.o are different things, so that they take a look at the guides/rules/recommendations first | 17:00 |
| xexaxo_ | omw, my statements sound/look horrible | 18:11 |
| xexaxo_ | if someone did understood them, and is able to assist that would be appreciated | 18:12 |

| SteveExodus | should be ... dput ppa:your-lp-id/your-ppa <source.changes> | 18:53 |
| maxb | that's a very obscure difference | 18:58 |
| maxb | And, the default ppa is called "ppa" | 18:58 |
| SteveExodus | it isnt | 19:00 |
| SteveExodus | ppa: in the fron | 19:00 |
| SteveExodus | ppa at the end | 19:00 |
| SteveExodus | new users like myself will put ppa:steve-bush/ppa | 19:01 |
| SteveExodus | and easy to change I assume | 19:01 |
| SteveExodus | Visit your PPA's overview page and follow the instructions in the Uploading packages to this PPA section. | 19:05 |
| SteveExodus | but the section is missing so one is left guessing what to put for "ppa:your-lp-id/ppa" | 19:06 |
| SteveExodus | exodus:steve-bush/ppa or ppa:steve-bush/exodus ... neither of which work | 19:07 |
| SteveExodus | i know what to put by experimentation | 19:07 |
| Ampelbein | SteveExodus: http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-06252011-080739pm.php shows a "Uploading packages to this PPA" section | 19:09 |
| SteveExodus | that section is missing from my page ... it skips down to Adding this PPA to your system | 19:11 |
| SteveExodus | trying to upload an image | 19:11 |
| SteveExodus | http://en.zimagez.com/zimage/xyz1.php | 19:19 |
| Ampelbein | SteveExodus: that's interesting. | 19:23 |
| Ampelbein | SteveExodus: Afraid I can't help you. Probably best would be to file a question on https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad | 19:25 |
