jmarsdenI've got a bzr recipe that doesn't build on LP, giving what looks like a quilt-related error.  I'd appreciate help fixing it.  https://code.launchpad.net/~lxde/+recipe/lxterminal-daily produces the error "tar: recipe-0.1.9/.pc/01_create_POTFILES.skip.patch/POTFILES.skip: Cannot open: Permission denied" in https://launchpadlibrarian.net/74175712/buildlog.txt.gz07:30
maxbjmarsden: Hmm. It's probably worth retrying the build - this smells like it could be something like a bad umask setting or something alike on the builder node that processed your build07:52
jmarsdenmaxb: Tried on natty and oneiric, same result: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/74174459/buildlog.txt.gz07:53
jmarsdenTrying rebuilds for both now, just in case...07:58
maxbhmm08:07
maxbFailed on thallium too08:07
maxbI don't know what to make of this08:07
maxbIt seems more like an infrastructure failure than anything wrong with your recipe08:07

lagWhen you delete a package, does it go instantly?11:01
wgrantlag: no, it can take up to half an hour to be removed.11:02
wgrantlag: And you can't ever reupload the same version to that archive again.11:03
spivwgrant: you missed a chance to say "lag: there's some lag" :P11:03
wgrantTrue.11:03
wgrantI blame jetlag.11:03

lagIt's annoying that you can't use the same version number11:05
wgrantWhy do you want to?11:06
wgrantTo use it again would be a lie.11:06
lagBecause I'm starting again11:07
spivwgrant: so is 'bzr uncommit' :P11:07

pmjdebruijnhi all11:40
pmjdebruijnwe're considering a commercial launchpad subscription11:40
pmjdebruijnhowever, I'm wondering how private PPAs work? are they just publicly unlisted? or do they have long obscure URLs to "protect" them, or are they htaccessed or something?11:42
lifelesspmjdebruijn: htaccessed more or less11:44
lifelesspmjdebruijn: you subscribe people one by one11:44

SteveExodusthe absolute bare-arsed minimum package that debuild seems to be happy to make is a directory with NEWS and README in it .. and debian15:14
bjwebbhi, is this a good place to ask about ppa builds?15:16
StevenKWhat about them15:16
StevenK?15:16
bjwebbwhy they fail15:17
* SteveExodus grins15:18
bjwebbmore specifically, if there's an easy way to build my package locally in the same way, so i can debug15:18
SteveExodusfakeroot debian/rules15:18
tsimpson!pbuilder15:18
ubot5pbuilder is a system to easily build packages in a clean chroot environment. To get started with PBuilder, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto15:18
StevenKtsimpson: Thanks! I was just trawling my brain for that link.15:18
bjwebbahh15:19
tsimpsonif it builds in pbuilder, it will likely build on LP, both run in a clean chroot etc15:19
bjwebbokay15:21
SteveExodusfakeroot debian/rules is a quicker test ... doesnt setup a complete new environment15:22
StevenKBut it can mask problems.15:23
SteveExodusindeed .. but maybe OP wants to solve basic problems like me and get INSTANT turnaround15:23
bjwebbi think pbuilder is what i want. building the standard way seemed to work fine15:24
SteveExodusimo it is too slow to solve newbie problems15:25
SteveExodusfirst fakeroot since it is instant .. then pbuilder I think for proper .. then lp for proper proper15:25
tsimpsonif you start a new pbuilder for every change you make, then it's slow, but you can script pbuilder to drop you into a shell on build failure15:26
tsimpsonthen it's just as fast as anything else you would do15:26
SteveExodusundestood .. but fakeroot costs little or nothing to setup ... can be used to trial many things instantly15:27
tsimpsonyep15:28
bjwebbis there a good way to do local mirroring on the fly?15:28
tsimpsonbjwebb: I haven't used it in a while, but I did setup mini-dinstall to create a local apt repo with the packages I built15:33
bjwebbtsimpson: i don't mean for the packages i built atm. just for caching multiple hits to download packages from the main repos15:34
tsimpsonbjwebb: I see a few in the archive, like approx, apt-cacher, apt-cacher-ng and apt-proxy15:36
bjwebbthanks15:36
dokojelmer: skaet did ask about the possibility of a manual import for gcc/4.616:27
jelmerdoko: We should be able to do that16:28
dokojelmer: that would be nice, avoids us uploading the new compiler after feature freeze16:28
dokojelmer: could you confirm, if/when you start the import?16:35
jelmerdoko: I'm currently pulling down what's already on launchpad, will keep you informed of the progress.16:38
dokojelmer: thanks!16:39
dbartI have an account subscribed to several trees in launchpad (configured to receive branch revision notification emails), and it hasn't received any emails since yesterday (the last email it received was dated 27 Jun 2011 15:19:13 +0000 (UTC)) and I know there have been a few branch revisions since then... is there any known current issue with launchpad notification emails?16:40
pooliedbart: not that i know of16:45
dbartpoolie: ok :(16:53
poolieare you getting other mail from lp?16:54
dbartthis account is not16:54
poolieno mail at all?16:54
pooliei would guess it's some kind of antispam thing at some point then16:55
dbartit's a special account for our automated test system, it watches for branch revision notification emails from launchpad and runs tests after each push16:56

mhall119I need help writing a bzr-builder recipe22:07
mhall119I currently have http://paste.ubuntu.com/634566/22:07
mhall119but I was told I can use one reciple and one package branch to build package for multiple distros/releases22:08
nigelbmhall119: everyone except lifeless is probably in dublin ;)22:09
tumbleweedmhall119: the releases to build for are an option on the build recipe page (assuming your source packages will be buildable on all releases)22:09
mhall119tumbleweed: doesn't the release name have to be in the changelog though?22:10
mhall119or no?22:10
tumbleweedmhall119: no, it'll take care of that22:10
mhall119oh cool22:10
mhall119so what should I have in my changelog then?22:10
tumbleweedwhatever you want, I think it adds an entry when it does the recipe build22:12
mhall119ok22:12
mhall119I like that loco-directory is used in the bzr-builder examples....22:13
