Laibschwhat is the latest status of "nominate for release" in launchpad?  Is there actually a workflow behing this now?  Back in the days it used to be mostly ignored.06:03
LaibschI'm interested in doing SRU work and wonder how I could easily see bugs that are fixed in #ubuntu+1 but affect an LTS.06:04
Laibschping SpamapS. ^^^06:10
micahgLaibsch: here's the list with nominations: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid06:12
Laibschmicahg: Thanks.  Who can accept nominations? And is that when the nomination becomes a "bug task"?06:12
micahgLaibsch: an uploader of the package can accept it06:13
micahgand yes to the second question06:13
Laibschcool06:14
Laibschthat's really nice to see this improvement in the work flow06:14
Laibschpreviously bugs disappeared from the radar when they were fixed in ubuntu+106:15
micahgLaibsch: the link I gave you is a series specific link, it shows tasks open in that series06:15
Laibschmicahg: "uploader of the package" means somebody with upload rights to the package the bug is filed against?06:15
micahgLaibsch: yes06:15
* Laibsch has no upload rights whatsoever to Ubuntu :-(06:16
* Laibsch bookmarks that link for future reference06:17

shayonjwhats the eligibility for membership approval. Apart from the ones mentioned here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad. As in I did fix a bug last night.. does that help ? :)17:41
* penguin42 isn't sure what else to suggest to bug 864271 it's a bit odd17:46
ubot4Launchpad bug 864271 in linux (Ubuntu) "Kernel panic with linux-image-3.0.0-12.19 (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/86427117:46
shayonji am actually planning for - Preparing New Packages . And i believe for that I need to join the Bugsquad team ?17:46
jbichashayonj: bug triaging and packaging are different, you don't have to do one to do the other17:50
shayonjjbicha, yeah right. So i plan to go with "Preparing New Packages", i still will be needing to join the team and complete the steps right ?17:51
shayonjwith Preparing New Packages i mean taking care of the ones marked with needs-packaging17:54
jbichashayonj: joining Bug Squad is easy, see https://launchpad.net/~bugsquad17:57
shayonjjbicha, cool. thats what i wanted to know.. as in i know its straight, just wondering do i need to or now. thanks :)17:57
txomonhello, I have  a strange problem, each time I suspend the laptop, after starting it, hibernates18:04
txomonanyone has got such strange thing?18:04
txomonso anyone here?18:07
Exodustxomon, you should ask in #ubuntu it has a larger crowd for support. This channel is more for bug reporting, if you need help reporting the bug this is the channel to ask.18:26
txomonok18:28
txomonso here you don't know if someone reported already that bug Exodus ?18:28
Exodustxomon, you can look in launchpad for that bug, it has a search box. It is probably reported.18:30
JanCI'm sure somebody filed a similar bug, but most of the time it's important you file your own bug (because this is often hardware-specific)18:30
JanCexcept if you find a bug about the same hardware of course18:31
ExodusExactly what JanC said txomon.18:31
txomonoki19:02
shayonjokay so i plan on working on this bud/wishlist .So can i just go and start working on it directly, keeping the steps in mind mentioned here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Contributing#Preparing_New_Packages19:07
shayonjor there is something more needs to be done. I ask because, i just applied for membership and waiting for approval. But that doesnt make a difference, does it ?19:07
shayonjneed som help with "Needs Packaging Bugs" for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/836764 . anyone around?19:21
ubot4Launchpad bug 836764 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] RFP: git-flow (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Wishlist,New]19:21
micahgshayonj: what about them?19:24
shayonjmicahg, so this package is already in debian19:27
micahgshayonj: so it'll come into Ubuntu next cycle19:28
shayonjmicahg, oh yeah thought so . So should i just leave message as mentioned in the guide ?19:28
shayonjthis oen - Packages for this software appear to exist in Debian already. Ubuntu has semi-automatic tools to sync new packages from Debian so it will most likely appear in the next Ubuntu release.19:29
micahgshayonj: sounds fine19:29
shayonjmicahg, thanks !19:29
micahgshayonj: thank you :)19:29
shayonjmicahg, hah !anytime ;)19:30
shayonjmicahg, need one more help ?19:34
micahgshayonj: just ask19:34
shayonjokay, so i am working on this other bug which is tagged as need-packaging. And it does not appear in ubunut and debian package list. Now i am looking for its license type. and on th the sourceforge page it says19:35
shayonjGNU Library or Lesser General Public License (LGPL), Other License19:35
shayonjso is LGPL the license type ?19:36
shayonjas in the upstream one19:36
micahgshayonj: yes, but questions on how to package are best served in #ubuntu-motu, this channel is for triaging bugs19:36
micahgshayonj: rather, it could be that license type, you'll have to look at the source code to be sure19:37
shayonjyes at the moment i am triaging it.. so if everyhting works out fine, i will start packaging it :)19:37
shayonjmicahg, oh okay !19:37
shayonjso i found the license types in the source code.. but i am wondering where/how do i link it in the comment19:50
micahgshayonj: you can just list it in the description19:51
shayonjokay19:51
shayonjthanks micahg, would you want to go through it once before I mark it triage. this will be my first triage(ed) bug, or should i ask for a proofread in the mailing list ? :)19:52
micahgshayonj: bug #?19:53
shayonjmicahg, 830052 . but i am still adding the license types19:54
micahgshayonj: bug 83005219:54
ubot4Launchpad bug 830052 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] PortableSigner (affects: 1) (heat: 4)" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/83005219:54
shayonjmicahg, yep19:54
shayonjmicahg, yes you can check now19:55
micahgshayonj: I think it's fine, I can't seem to find the template ATM20:00
shayonjmicahg, okay, thanks so much.20:01
shayonjmicahg, but am i suppose to mark it triaged i am not a bugsquad team member (yet)20:01
micahgshayonj: they generally stay as new, I'd have to find the template to mark it triaged20:02
shayonjmicahg, okay.20:02
CQhello, can someone point me to where I should report kubuntu bugs? googling only points me to the ubuntu launchpad...20:15
shayonjCQ, https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Bugs/Reporting20:18
CQshayonj: been there already, that points me to the KDE tracker, or to create a launchpad account which I already have... and through a Plasma awidget I cant get to a help page where I can submit the bug...20:21
CQ...and following the instruction to file the bug on launchpad gets me to the ubuntu launchpad which tells me to look at the kubuntu page you pointed me to.20:24
CQcircular references are fun ...20:24
shayonjoh i see..yeah sorry about that20:24
micahgCQ: if the bug is ubuntu specific, file on launchpad, otherwise upstream on KDE's tracker20:25
shayonjmicahg, i couldnt find the template. you got the source from svn right ?20:27
micahgshayonj: I don't know where it is ATM20:28
shayonjmicahg, http://portablesigner.sourceforge.net/ and the Source Code Repository at http://portablesigner.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/portablesigner/20:28
ali1234i would just like to say that it is really annoying when apport retracer marks my bugs invalid because i have some out dated package, especially when that package has nothing at all to do with what crashed, and also the updated versions aren't available on my mirror20:28
micahgshayonj: no, I meant the template for a needs-packaging bug20:29
shayonjmicahg, as in the guide ?20:29
micahgali1234: I'd suggest sending an e-mail to ubuntu-devel-discuss at lists.ubuntu.com20:29
shayonjmicahg, this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage#Needs_Packaging_Bugs ?20:29
CQmicahg: ok, thanks... I filed upstream, and on launchpad with a pointer to upstream.20:29
CQmicahg: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/864848 ... thanks for your help20:30
ubot4Launchpad bug 864848 in ubuntu "plasma network manager widget does not connect to UMTS net (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New]20:30
shayonjmicahg, sorry i didnt get with what you meant by template20:39
micahgshayonj: there's a template for how to file a needs-packaging bug20:40
