kroq-gar78 hello all.Why is Launchpad building service giving me an error? It talks about ca-certificates-java failing to install (or something like that, don't remember the package name). I'm trying to package my Java game that I made. Here is the link to the buildlog: https://code.launchpad.net/~kroq-gar78/+archive/ppa/+recipebuild/6426419:43
jo-erlendI've created a PPA on launchpad, and now I'm trying to package and make the software available. I haven't put anything in the PPA yet, and I wanted to add it on my development machine. I used "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:joerlend.schinstad/testing". That gives me the following error: «Error: can't find signing_key_fingerprint at https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~joerlend.schinstad/+archive/testing»20:20
jo-erlendwhat have I done wrong?20:20
lifelesswe don't generate and publish the key files until the first upload20:20
jo-erlendah, ok.20:21
lifelesssomething like 2/3rds of PPAs never get an upload, so this saves putting unused things into the global keyring20:21
jo-erlendjust need to figure out how to package and upload then.20:21
jo-erlendlifeless, sounds reasonable. Perhaps it should be mentioned in https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/InstallingSoftware?20:21
lifelessperhaps20:21
lifelessperhaps we should change it, it seems to cause regular confusion20:21
jo-erlendor perhaps even better, the error message could mention that.20:22
ScottKwgrant: I was wondering if you could take a look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/teeworlds/0.6.0-2~natty1/+build/2623702 . It's currently depwait on bam (>= 0.4), but it looks to me like that should be available.20:22
lifelessjo-erlend: thats a reasonable thing to report as a bug20:23
jo-erlendok. :)20:23

jo-erlendlifeless, thanks. :)20:30
jo-erlendI'm working on Quickly Widgets and now I would like to package and upload it to my PPA so I can test that applications that depend on it really does work, etc. I already have python-quickly.widgets installed from universe and I wish my package to replace that. What do I need to consider? Sorry if this is the wrong channel for that question.20:49

lifelessjo-erlend: #ubuntu-packaging may be better21:15
jo-erlendthanks. I need to learn this stuff quickly. It's really boring to program without being able to actually see the results. :)21:16
KombuchaKipFor project todo list type functionality, what is the suggested way to use with Launchpad? Just use the bug tracker?21:23
lifelessKombuchaKip: sure21:25
KombuchaKiplifeless: Thanks.21:26
KombuchaKiplifeless: Maybe it would be useful if they added another bug type as "todo" since "wishlist" implies that some things might not be necessary.21:26
lifelessKombuchaKip: actuallym we want to revamp things quite a bit21:28
KombuchaKiplifeless: Cool.21:28
lifelessKombuchaKip: get to a more evidence based model; wishlist doesn't really fit in the same dimension as the others21:28
KombuchaKiplifeless: Yup21:28
lifelessand the others are both too granular for some, and not granular enough for others21:28
KombuchaKiplifeless: Right.21:34
kroq-gar78KombuchaKip: blueprints?21:46
KombuchaKipkroq-gar78: Close, but I think it's too much work to create a blueprint every time some functionality not completed yet hasn't been done in a program or some such.21:47
kroq-gar78KumbuchaKip: or you could just create a TODO file in the master branch21:48
kroq-gar78and add it to bzr21:49
KombuchaKipkroq-gar78: Could, but it's not very friendly to non-developers working on the project (e.g. artwork).21:49
kroq-gar78KombuchaKip: OH! you mean others suggesting ideas. There are really only 3 ways: blueprints, bugs/wishlist bugs, TODO file21:50
kroq-gar78only ones that I can come up with21:50
KombuchaKipkroq-gar78: I think the bugs method seems to be the best way at present, but Launchpad really should have a TODO list as well.21:52
kroq-gar78yeah I agree. I think that's what they were trying to to with blueprints21:52
kroq-gar78I think they should make a list and THEN have them LINK to blueprints21:52
=== Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan
lifelesskroq-gar78: what would a separate list feature add?21:57
lifelesskroq-gar78: I mean: what could you do with it that you couldn't with bugs / blueprints, or why would it be better?21:57
KombuchaKiplifeless: Well, just as there is an Overview, Code, Bugs, Blueprints, Translations, Answers, there might be a ToDo section as well. Just a simple list of things to do.22:01
KombuchaKipIs there any way to assign a bug to multiple assignees?22:01
lifelesshttps://dev.launchpad.net/IssueTracker22:01
lifelesswe are combining Bugs and Blueprints22:02
lifelessso those being different tabs today is not a reason for adding a ToDo tab22:02
lifelessKombuchaKip: a single task can only be assigned to a single person-or-team at a time22:03
KombuchaKiplifeless: Fair enough.22:04
andreas__how can I nominate a bug for a specific release of ubuntu? https://bugs.launchpad.net/landscape-client/+bug/81347723:19
ubot5Ubuntu bug 813477 in Landscape Client "Update landscape-client to 11.07.1.1" [High,Fix committed]23:19
andreas__I'm trying "also affects distribution" but it won't let me say it affects ubuntu23:19
andreas__it was fixed in oneiric, that's why it is "released", but now I want to add a task for lucid23:19
=== andreas__ is now known as ahasenack
tumbleweedahasenack: normal approach is to ask in #ubuntu-devel. core-devs can nominate main packages23:20
lifelessahasenack: only bug supervisors can nominate for prior releases23:20
lifeless(which suggests we probably want to remove nominations as a misfeature)23:21
micahgtumbleweed: bug control can nominate, core-dev or PPU can approve23:21
ahasenackI used to be able to do it23:21
ahasenackhmm23:21
tumbleweedmicahg: I don't seem to be able to nominate on that one23:21
micahgtumbleweed: you need to focus on the Ubuntu task23:21
ahasenackI vaguely remember a message from LP to me about something about to expire23:21
ahasenackprobably my membership in that group23:21
lifelessahasenack: it got changed, because it was drowning - approx every user was nominating their pet bug23:21
ahasenackI can see that happening23:22
tumbleweedmicahg: uh, duh, is there any way to do that without editing the URL?23:22
micahgthe three click solution (if you have the greasemonkey script installed), click on the source name on the task, click fix released bugs, click the bug you want23:23
ahasenackso is one of you doing it or should I ask in #ubuntu-devel?23:26
DNS777uhm i need more space in a ppa can some1 help here too? :]23:38
