robert_ancell | is there a way to email a mailing list when a release is made in a launchpad project? | 01:11 |
---|---|---|
poolie | robert_ancell, other than writing a mail yourself? :) | 01:12 |
poolie | no | 01:12 |
poolie | not that i know of | 01:12 |
robert_ancell | poolie, :( | 01:12 |
poolie | could be worth having a bug | 01:12 |
robert_ancell | I'll open one | 01:12 |
poolie | there is a big discussion about better notifications at the moment | 01:12 |
robert_ancell | poolie, distributors want it, and I keep forgetting to email the list | 01:13 |

niak | Hi, I'm trying to create a Test Project. It seems that the servers is getting a code update. Does someone know when this update ends ? | 09:05 |
bigjools | niak: it should be done inside an hour | 09:12 |
niak | ok thanks =) | 09:15 |
wgrant | bigjools, niak: staging's a bit broken at the moment. You might be better off using qastaging.launchpad.net instead. | 09:41 |
niak | ok :o | 09:42 |

pfarrell | Hi | 10:42 |
pfarrell | I'm confused by launchpad's bug interface | 10:42 |
pfarrell | I want to see the open bugs for the fluidity project, so I go to https://bugs.launchpad.net/fluidity/, and click on "Open bugs" on the right-hand side | 10:43 |
pfarrell | but it still lists all of the bugs with status "Fix Committed", which in my mind are not open | 10:43 |
pfarrell | how do I list only the open bugs? | 10:44 |
nigelb | Launchpad counts Fix Comitted as open, if you click Advanced Search, you can customize the result to not have fix comitted. | 10:45 |
bigjools | Fix Committed is a terrible bug status | 10:48 |
joeye01 | Fail to Add a download file to my project. The file is 130m in size. Browser returns following message after 30 minutes of trying: | 10:52 |
joeye01 | Sorry, there was a problem connecting to the Launchpad server. | 10:52 |
jml | Hey | 10:53 |
jml | I want to make someone an admin of ~twisted-dev | 10:53 |
jml | but I can't, even though I myself am an admin | 10:53 |
jml | or rather, I can't seem to find the option to do it | 10:54 |
jml | how can I change a member of that team to be an administrator? | 10:54 |
soren | You need to be the owner, don't you? | 10:55 |
wgrant | Right, only the owner can promote members to admins. | 10:55 |
jml | Ah, and "Owner" is not listed as a separate status on the members page | 10:55 |
jml | nice | 10:55 |
wgrant | Right. They're not necessarily a member. | 10:56 |
jml | nor indeed are they mentioned | 10:56 |
jml | cool. | 10:56 |
wgrant | No. They're only on +index. | 10:56 |
jml | that solves my immediate problem. thanks. | 10:56 |
nigelb | bigjools: There are times when I wished Launchpad let me customize bug statuses :) | 10:59 |
bigjools | there's good reasons to not do that :) | 11:00 |
wgrant | bigjools: eg? | 11:01 |
bigjools | it makes collaboration harder | 11:03 |
wgrant | Right, but using Launchpad's statuses can make it harder to manage your project. | 11:04 |
wgrant | and there's inexplicable stuff like Opinion :/ | 11:04 |
pfarrell | so what does launchpad think of as "not open"? only fix released? | 11:05 |
wgrant | pfarrell: Fix Released, Invalid, Won't Fix and Opinion are the closed statuses. | 11:06 |
wgrant | They're hidden from searches by default. | 11:06 |
pfarrell | right | 11:06 |
pfarrell | I'd like to submit my opinion that "Fix Committed" being "Open" is a bit counterintuitive :-) | 11:06 |
wgrant | Well. | 11:06 |
wgrant | A bugfix that isn't released is still relevant to users, because it may affect them. And it's relevant to developers, because they might want to release it :) | 11:07 |
wgrant | But it's easy to exclude it from a search if you want to. | 11:07 |
wgrant | Or your project could just not use it. | 11:07 |
pfarrell | I accept all of these statements, but I don't think they counter my point :-) | 11:09 |
wgrant | Default bug listings show all the bugs that are in play right now. | 11:09 |
wgrant | All the bugs that aren't in a final state. | 11:09 |
wgrant | If a project is using Fix Committed, any bugs in that state are not finalised. | 11:10 |
pfarrell | well, thank you for explaining it | 11:11 |
wgrant | They're not dissimilar from In Progress. | 11:11 |
wgrant | As a developer looking for something to take, I'm not interested in In Progress or Fix Committed bugs. | 11:11 |
nigelb | As an admin for projects which use Fix Committed, I actually want it counted as Open. | 11:11 |
nigelb | ... | 11:11 |
nigelb | the timing of that was awesome :) | 11:11 |
wgrant | As a release manager, I want to see In Progress and Fix Committed to see how my project's doing. | 11:12 |
wgrant | As a user, I want to see all bugs without a fix released, because some of them affect me. | 11:12 |
wgrant | Why do you want to specifically exclude Fix Committed bugs? | 11:14 |
pfarrell | you hit the nail on the head, I think. I am a developer looking for bugs to fix, rather than a user or release manager. | 11:15 |
wgrant | In that case you may want to filter to Triaged, or possibly New, Incomplete, Confirmed as well. | 11:15 |
wgrant | It's difficult or impossible to make the defaults suit everyone, unfortunately :/ | 11:16 |
wgrant | And different people want different default filters at different times :( | 11:16 |
pfarrell | true | 11:19 |
pfarrell | maybe it would be good to have "Developer's view", "User's view", and "Release manager's view" on the right-hand side, as those would be the three common cases? | 11:19 |
wgrant | That might be handy. But some projects use statuses in different ways, just to confuse things. | 11:21 |

Resistance | ;P | 19:02 |
unreg_toto | Hi boys, I was advised by one of you to come here to ask to edit/delete a bug post I made in the lauchpad web site | 19:04 |
unreg_toto | because the post is noise if I understand well, and above all (for me) I forgot to remove a private info in it. Is it possible an admin to edit or remove the post comment? | 19:07 |
unreg_toto | Sorry Resistance, I'm not very easy in irc | 19:17 |
unreg_toto | there no admin here ? | 19:39 |
tumbleweed | !patience | unreg_toto | 19:40 |
ubot5 | unreg_toto: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 19:40 |
tumbleweed | err not quite appropriate here | 19:40 |
tumbleweed | unreg_toto: one sometimes has to wait a bit | 19:40 |
tumbleweed | unreg_toto: if there's something you want hidden in the bug, mark the whole bug as being private until someone can delete that comment | 19:41 |
unreg_toto | Thanks tumbleweed , I didn't know I could do that as it is not my own bug. Also as the comment is mine and the error in it too , I would not feel polite to change the whole to private. I read bugs about a feature in lauchpad to edit posts, but it seems postponed forever or not wanted at all. I hope launchpad is not the example Facebook followed to keep private data forever ;-) | 19:46 |
Resistance | oh well usually you cant if its not your own bug, iirc. | 19:46 |
unreg_toto | I thought this way without even give a try, why I'm here now ;) | 19:49 |
