achiangpoolie: ping?00:00
pooliehi achiang00:06
achiangpoolie: hey, reworked the stupid enum class, but now struggling with bzr00:06
poolieoh?00:07
achiangtrying to get help in #bzr now00:07
achiangpoolie: got it, here's the direction i'm going -- http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/705704/00:11
achiangpoolie: that diff is against trunk00:11
poolielooks pretty good00:13
pooliewhy do you want to make the enums attributes of HydrazineCmd?00:13
achiangpoolie: oh. um.00:13
achiangi don't? </schoolboy>00:13
poolie:) probably easier to just make them global00:13
poolieif they're not specifically related to the state of an instance of the cmd00:14
achiangright00:14
achiangpoolie: ok, how about this? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/705709/00:20
achiangthe get_all() allows you to do a _show_columnated() on them later00:20
achiangpoolie: any thoughts on that last pastebin?01:19
pooliesorry, back now01:33
poolieachiang: that looks great01:33
pooliethere should be one blank line after the start of the class01:34
achiangpoolie: you mean insert blank on line 9?01:35
pooliebefore line 9 of the diff, yes01:35
achianggot it01:36
achiangwhat's the bzr/python/launchpad way of fixing merge proposals? in kernel land, i would throw away the old branch, rewrite my commit, and re-submit, so that in the end tree, it looks like i wrote a perfect commit on the first try01:37
achiangso here, do i just make a new commit on top of my old branch? if that gets merged, there will be an ugly, incorrect-ish commit before you get the good one01:40
achiangbut if i make a completely new branch and MP, it seems like we lose some of the useful discussion that happens in the existing MP01:40
pooliegenerally bzr biases more towards keeping history than pretending everything was right first go01:50
pooliehowever, if you rebase or uncommit and recommit01:50
poolieand then push --overwrite to launchpad, launchpad will cope just fine01:50
pooliein some ways keeping the history is nice for review because then the reviewer can see how you handled their comments01:50
pooliein the incremental diff01:50
achiangi've actually been thinking about this a lot, ever since i started co-working with rockstar01:51
achianghe made a very good argument for "preserving development history"01:52
poolieoh i didn't know you worked with him01:52
poolieoh, just physically, right01:52
wgrantWith the way bzr presents mainline history, I don't think there's much reason to not preserve non-mainline history.01:52
achiangnot really, we just lived in the same town for a while01:52
achiangbut the reason the kernel community wants only perfect commits is because they place a huge emphasis on bisectability01:52
poolieright01:53
achiangi'm happy to do it the bzr way01:53
achiangit just feels... different01:53
pooliemakes sense because you so often are going to want to get random people to bisect01:53
pooliein fact external video is broken on my laptop now and apparently i have to bisect again to help work it out01:53
pooliei thought a thinkpad x series would be a safe choice :/01:53
poolieapparently it's an unusual early arrandale hardware rev01:54
poolieanyhow01:54
pooliein either tool, you can choose either way to suit the project, but bzr encourages keeping it01:54
poolieas wgrant says we have this folded-up history view01:54
wgrantSo the mainline history should always be perfect.01:55
achiangi see01:55
achiangi've kinda seen that in 'bzr qlog'01:56
poolieas long as you don't merge anything imperfect to trunk :)01:56
achiangbut not entirely sure what to make of it01:56
achiangheh01:56
poolieok, i might get some lunch now, biab01:56
wgrantpoolie: But that can't happen, because your test suite will prevent that... right? :)01:56
achiangthanks poolie, wgrant01:57

afrankeHi.08:36
afrankeI'm the admin of the ubuntu-l10n-fr team. I have a list of proposed members and in this list I have people whose accounts don't exist anymore or have been merged.08:39
afrankeThis is related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/58138 but the bug report is about it not happening again in the future.08:39
ubot5Ubuntu bug 58138 in Launchpad itself "Person merge code should take into account inactive and proposed memberships" [Low,Triaged]08:39
afrankeI can't remove those requests from the list since I get an error whenever I try anything with them.08:40
afrankeIs there anyone with super power here that could remove them for me?08:40
afrankeThe list is at https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-fr/+members#proposed08:41
afrankeI can give links and names for the accounts.08:42
rvbaafranke: Hi, yes, please provide the names of the accounts, I'll see what I can do for you.08:42
afrankeThanks.08:42
afrankeDo you want me to write them here or would you rather have them elsewhere?08:43
rvbaafranke: I also need a way to properly identify you.08:43
rvbaafranke: I think it's best to contact me via https://launchpad.net/~rvb08:43

rvbaafranke: I just received your email; I'm sorry but I'm told the proper way to do this (because I'm not sure I'll be able to do it myself) is for you to add a question here: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion09:07
afrankeOk.09:07
rvbaafranke: Do you mind putting what you put in our email here? (and in English please ;))09:07

thopiekarasked that on a ubuntu channel but didn't get any answer.. where is the difference between building a package with pbuilder and dpkg-buildpackage? I am able to build a package via dpkg-buildpackage but it fails in pbuilder (launchpad).. http://pastebin.com/xgmspmn5 .. what can I do?16:25
bigjoolsthopiekar: it means your package is depending on a locally-installed package that is not listed as a build-depends: in the package itself16:32

johnhaitasso i have 'jhaitas' as my username in launchpad ... i want to migrate to 'johnhaitas' .... for consistency18:05
johnhaitasanything i should be aware of before attempting to change?18:05
Renegade15good evening18:14
Renegade15question...on the bug import format page, it says "To request an import you need to:  " / "generate an import file using one of our exporters" - do those exporters actually exist? is there a list somewhere?18:16
dobeyjohnhaitas: you need to ask a question on https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad requesting your account to be renamed (or merged if you already created the account name you want to use as a second account).18:18
johnhaitasdobey: i see i can change it right there in the account settings18:19
johnhaitasdobey: my question is more about whether or not it may cause breakage18:19
dobeyno idea18:20
johnhaitasdobey: know of anyone in this channel who might?18:24
dobeyjohnhaitas: if anyone is looking and knows, they probably would have responded by now. :)18:31
johnhaitasdobey: i figured18:31
dobeyjohnhaitas: open a question on the launchpad answers system and someone will answer/help you migrate18:32
johnhaitasdobey: i was asking if you know of a specific individual who is extraordinarily helpful in her18:32
johnhaitasdobey: will doo18:32
johnhaitasby18:32
johnhaitasoh dear18:32
thopiekarcould you add some builders for i386? there are many jobs which will take more than 9 hours to finish :/ thanks18:36
Renegade15I guess no ones knows about bug imports, eh?18:42
lifelessRenegade15: they do exist18:43
lifelessRenegade15: however we don't document them brilliantly :(18:44
lifelesshttps://launchpad.net/trac-launchpad-migrator https://launchpad.net/sfbugs2launchpad18:44
lifelessthere is a bugzilla one around somewhere I think18:45
Renegade15hmm18:45
Renegade15I'd need one for Mantis18:45
lifelessjohnhaitas: if you change it folks url to you will change18:45
lifelessjohnhaitas: we prevent changes that will cause inconsistent issues inside LP itself.18:45
dobeythopiekar: probably final distro rebuild happening for oneiric release on thursday?18:54
dobeythopiekar: iow, more builders wouldn't necessarily help. you just have bad timing :)18:54
maxbjohnhaitas: The only thing I can think of is that it would change the URLs to any of your Bazaar branches.18:56
thopiekardobey: it seems that the building time doesn't grow anymore..18:56
thopiekargood for me maybe it will drop overnight :) so I can work tomorrow again :)18:57
dobeythopiekar: the 3 builds We did earlier today only took a few minutes18:57
maxbHm. Although there are three i386 PPA builders in a disabled state, with "No route to host" as an error.18:58
maxbI suppose this is a bad time of day for someone able to poke them being around?18:58
lifelessmaxb: there's 24 hour coverage during the week18:59
lifelessmaxb: modulo leave holidays and sprints18:59
johnhaitasmaxb: is that in case i've linked to them elsewhere?18:59
johnhaitasor does that potentially affect projects that i've branched and merged back into?18:59
maxbIt only affects references to those branches in text - e.g. in bug comments, and the remembered locations in local copies of those branches19:01

thopiekaron launchpad?20:23
QuintasanI wanted to get it into archive to spin a Kubuntu Mobile image20:24
Quintasanthopiekar: Any idea what GCONF_DISABLE_MAKEFILE_SCHEMA_INSTALL=1 does with the make install option?20:24
thopiekarahh ok.. dunno I'm not someone how works on the code, just doing packaging in different teams..20:25
thopiekarask it in #meego-inputmethods20:25
dobeyQuintasan: that GCONF var makes the "make install" not run the gconftool bits to install the schemas into the running system20:25
Quintasanhmm it breaks dh_auto_install that way :P20:26
Quintasandobey: GCONF_DISABLE_MAKEFILE_SCHEMA_INSTALL=1 INSTALL_ROOT=$(CURDIR)/debian/tmp make  $(PARALLEL_MAKEFLAGS) install  <-- here is the whole line, any idea how to do the same thing with override?20:26
thopiekarQuintasan: tested the build recipes locally and I think they will be in the daily repo in ca 4-5h20:27
Quintasanthopiekar: I know, but that's not really archive material :)20:27
QuintasanThat should be fine with dailies but we can't use PPA's to spin images AFAIK20:27
thopiekarat the moment just maliit-framework and maliit-plaugins20:27
thopiekaruse UCK it can--20:28
dobeynot sure what you're doing there, but probably better discussed in another channel20:28
Quintasandobey: Sure, sorry20:28
thopiekarjoin the maliit channel..20:28
