falktx_hey there02:25
falktx_I'm having a *major* launchpad bug!02:26
falktx_I have a launchpad team with a set of ppas02:27
falktx_this one has the problem:02:27
falktx_https://launchpad.net/~kxstudio-team/+archive/hydrogen02:27
falktx_full link to all package list -> https://launchpad.net/~kxstudio-team/+archive/hydrogen/+packages?field.name_filter=&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=02:28
falktx_I can see there for example,02:28
falktx_libgen3d (1.0.1svn940-1) karmic; urgency=low02:28
falktx_from a 'salikhmetov', which is not part of the team!02:29
falktx_from what I can tell, this new packages have been copied (it has, for example, 'Copied from ubuntu karmic in PPA for Animux')02:30
wgrantfalktx_: The uploader is the person who initially uploaded the package to Launchpad -- it's not who did the copy.02:30
falktx_this is very serious02:30
wgrantSomeone in your team copied the package into your PPA.02:31
falktx_I seriously doubt that02:31
falktx_that ppa is for a single project (only binaries for hydrogen), and the original devs are not part of the team02:32
wgrantThe team has 13 members.02:32
falktx_other team members don't usually do uploads (last one was a year ago)02:32
falktx_I'm the only active developer on the team that does uploads right now02:34
falktx_wgrant: is there a way I can check who did these copies?02:35
wgrantI'm checking.02:35
wgrantIt's not visible in the UI at the moment, stupidly.02:35
falktx_oh, ok02:35
falktx_wgrant: please do let me know02:36
falktx_wgrant: any idea how much that will take?02:38
jbichafalktx_: I blame dreamstudio02:39
falktx_jbicha: oh, you got the info, is this correct, wgrant?02:40
jbichabut it's just a guess, without it showing up it's hard to tell02:40
falktx_oh, ok02:40
jbichano I have no idea, I just looked at people's karma02:40
falktx_I need to have sure, as I'll probably need to speak with this person02:41
jbicharight, of course02:41
jbichamaybe it doesn't even show up in karma02:41
falktx_hm, I can compare upload dates I guess02:43
falktx_jbicha: does copying packages counts for karma?02:43
falktx_copies have been made in 2011-08-12, so I guess it's not dreamstudio02:45
* falktx_ only know realizes about so many karma points... :)02:47
falktx_err, *now02:47
jbichakarma's pretty useless as it doesn't give enough info so I'm going to stop making uneducated guesses02:48
wgrantThis package has been copied around a lot, so it's taking a little longer than expected.02:48
wgrantA dreamstudio PPA does show up in the list of copies, though.02:48
falktx_I checked all users' karma, and no one has relevant points on 2011-08-1202:49
wgrantCopies don't show give karma.02:49
falktx_let me check that ppa02:49
falktx_oh, ok02:49
wgrantThey're plagiarism, not karma :P02:49
falktx_I have to guess dreamstudio is the author of this, since he seems to have been copied a lot of packages into his ppas02:51
wgrantThis very package is in one of his PPAs three times.02:52
falktx_wgrant: how far are you from a real answer?02:52
falktx_oh02:52
falktx_wgrant: which package?02:53
wgrantThat same libgen3d package has been copied into http://launchpad.net/~dreamstudio/+archive/graphics-testing three times.02:53
falktx_ah yes, nice catch02:54
falktx_wgrant: I guess that's it, thanks!02:54
wgrantI haven't found a log entry for this particular copy yet, but it seems very likely that it was dreamstudio.02:54
falktx_I was really worried this was some kind of launchpad bug...02:54
falktx_err, now I need to check all my team ppas for non-wanted copies...02:55
jbichafalktx_: it is a bug, it should tag a copy with who did it & show it02:56
wgrantAhhh.02:56
falktx_ah, yes, that will surely be helpful02:56
wgrantIt helps if I look at the right day of logs.02:56
wgrantIt was dreamstudio.02:56
falktx_wgrant: I just deleted the packages02:56
wgrantI was looking at the day after.02:56
falktx_oh, thanks!02:56
wgrant(most of the servers are UTC, but the logging server is still BST, and this occured at 00:09 UTC.02:57
wgrantSo it was right in that hour where the log dates are confusing :(02:57
falktx_haha, ouch02:58
wgrantAnyway, yeah, copied from ppa:dreamstudio/graphics-testing, by dreamstudio.02:58
falktx_yep, thanks again02:58
falktx_I should have a word with him ;)02:59
falktx_well, I'm off03:10
falktx_thanks, and keep working on launchpad cause it rocks ;)03:10

noodles775hey all. Is there a way to trigger an update of the MP diff of a branch that I don't own?07:52
noodles775(ie. without needing to modify the branch itself - trunk has changed to now include much of what's in the diff)07:53
wgrantnoodles775: There's not, unfortunately.07:53
noodles775Currently I'm just generating it locally (easy enough)07:53

TblueHello. So unfortunately, the developer who owned our project on Launchpad recently passed away, is there any way to transfer ownership?08:59
TblueI guess LP answers would be the right place to ask?09:00
StevenKTblue: Yes.09:03

ahasenackhi guys, how do I build a package with a recipe if a) base branch has debian/ already b) I want to nest another branch for debian/12:21
ahasenackI can't use the "run" command in launchpad to rm -rf debian before nesting, it's forbidden12:22
tumbleweedafaik the only way is to merge rather than nest12:22
ahasenackbut these branches diverge, one only has debian/, the other has the source code12:23
tumbleweedyes, it means preparing a different branch12:24
wgrantahasenack: Why doesn't your branch contain the full source?12:33
=== mrevell-lunch is now known as mrevell
ahasenackwgrant: why should it? It's just a packaging branch12:34
wgrantahasenack: All Ubuntu branches are full source.12:35
wgrantIt is the standard nowadays.12:35

ubot5Ubuntu bug 617653 in bzr-builder "Please add a rm command" [Wishlist,Triaged]13:33
ahasenackwgrant: that would help me too, I would just "run rm -rf debian" before nesting13:33

=== yofle is now known as yofel
wgrantahasenack: Why would you have to keep updating the packaging branch with code changes? And even if you did want to update the code when you changed the packaging, you can just bzr merge...13:39
ahasenackwgrant: it's not a show stopper bug, it's a convenience to be able to use a separate packaging branch with just debian/, and the nest command, which was created for this purpose I think13:42
ahasenackspecially since many packages are non-native, this mimics this type of package better I think13:43
ahasenackbut policies are policies, nm, I will yell at the fellow developers who told me to use a separate packaging-only branch instead of here :)13:44
wgrantI would suggest that it's not a convenience so much as unnecessary ugliness :)13:45
ahasenackwgrant: it's quite easy to forget that patches are applied after you build, so one has to be careful when running "bzr commit"13:45
ahasenackI wouldn't want to change the source code in a branch dedicated to packaging only13:45
wgrantAh, if you are using patches in a bzr branch, that is indeed a mess.13:50
sdezielhi all. I made a mistake when editing https://bugs.launchpad.net/openvswitch/+bug/829250. I accidentally added a link to www.nlnetlabs.nl/bugs-script/#405 but that was meant for another bug.13:50

pfarrellhi! I have a ppa question. I have a ppa in which I built a source pkg which has both arch-dependent and arch-independent parts. When I look at the build, it says it only produced the arch-specific parts: https://code.launchpad.net/~fluidity-core/+archive/ppa/+build/274735814:13
pfarrellwhere do the arch-independent parts get build? is it on the x86 builder?14:14
pfarrell(or the i386 builder, I mean)14:14
TheEvilPhoenixpfarrell:  are they separate packages, these parts?14:15
pfarrellyes14:15
pfarrellone source package, 5 binary packages14:15
TheEvilPhoenixwasnt my question14:16
TheEvilPhoenixwere the architecture-dependent source parts and architecture-independent package parts separate?14:16
wgrantpfarrell: Architecture-independent binaries are only built once -- in the i386 build.14:16
TheEvilPhoenixoop i'll let wgrant answer :P14:16
pfarrellwgrant: ok, thanks, that answers my question :-)14:16
TheEvilPhoenixi should be in class anyways14:16

joeymrevell: do you remember how to export stuff from BPs in LP as csv?16:08
joeymrevell: I think I found what I was thinking about... can't do it in LP but can do +rdf16:13
mrevelljoey, Hey, I half-remember how to export a sprint's attendee list.16:13
mrevelljoey, Ah, okay16:13
joeymrevell: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro/+rdf  :-)16:14
mrevellAha :)16:14
mrevellHey, I don't wanna be nosey, but do you have a use in mind for that?16:15
joeymrevell: a PM of mine NEEDS an API based export of blueprints on a milestone (as well as bugs, etc) so he can import that into a project management tool.  So he's learning how to use the LP API. In the meantime he wanted an easy way to extract stuff so he could parse it into an XML format for the PM tool.16:17
joeythe API is the right way to go but the +RDF is likely to be the fast solution to the immediate problem.16:18
joeyThere is something like this that matsubara-lunch wrote for OEM but I can't use that in Linaro because...it's not OEM. :-)16:19
mrevellmatsubara-lunch may be able to modify that for you. Do you need anything new exposed in the API for this joey?16:20
joeymrevell: I don't think so.  I'd have to look at the latest apidoc but I think it has everything we need.  We just need a one-way/RO connector to extract stuff from LP.  Since we  have essentially all that data being used in http://status.linaro.org I feel pretty confident that it already exists to the extent we need it16:21
mrevellCool.16:22
joeyI've suggest my pm chat with james_w about it since he's the mastermind behind status.l.o16:22

grimm_Hello there! Can somebody help me with the bug triage process please?21:12
micahggrimm_: for which project?  ubuntu?21:13
=== medberry is now known as med_out
grimm_micahg: Hello! I was reading about the triage process on the Launchpad project.21:15
grimm_micahg: Maybe the problem is generic... Do I have to be a member of any team in order to triage a launchpad project bug? I cannot change the importance and the status of any bug...21:16
micahggrimm_: yes, to change importance, one has to be a member of the bug supervisor team for that project21:17
micahgsome statuses are restricted to that group as well (triaged, won't fix)21:17
achiangdoes anyone here have experience writing tools to sync launchpad bugs with an external bug tracker?21:19
grimm_micahg: Thanks. The strange thing is that i can add tags but not importance or status. Is that the expected behaviour?21:19
achiangthis is different than simply adding a watch on an upstream bug. i'm thinking (minimally) of syncing up the comments21:20
micahggrimm_: well, depending on which status you're trying to set, a logged in user should be able to set a bug to confirmed21:20
* achiang finds #55703221:21
grimm_micahg: thats true. the other options of status seem enabled but never tried them.21:21
achiangoh, and #78517321:22
grimm_micahg: thanks a lot for your time. i'll try to locate the relevant team for the launchpad triage process21:22
micahggrimm_: it's the launchpad security team ATM21:26
grimm_micahg: it's a pitty that its not mentioned in the wiki21:31

jo-erlendI keep forgetting how to file a bug against ubuntu when you don't know which package to file against. It's really annoying that I have to read this long page every time.22:17
jo-erlendin this case, it's an issue that enables you to gain access of a locked screen by pressing a keyboard combination. I have no idea what package to file that agaist.22:18
jo-erlendand since it doesn't really affect me in any way, I keep postponing the report, but it should really be fixed. In an office environment, that can be a really bad thing.22:20
