| cjwatson | Laney: I don't think there are any significant ones in the long term; I'm somewhat interested in doing something expedient for now, but it wouldn't be hard to refactor later | 00:29 |
|---|---|---|
| Laney | ack | 00:29 |
| cjwatson | mainly because I've left it rather late to get this done and I'd like not to have to wait for April to test it ... | 00:31 |
| Laney | well, and the first autosync of a cycle might not be the best time to test a brand new tool :-) | 00:40 |
| Laney | anyway, getting it out the door fast is fine by me: we then have 4 monthsish to shuffle code around | 00:41 |
| cjwatson | depends how you look at it ... but at the very least it means there's a giant pile of output and it's hard to audit | 00:42 |
| * cjwatson decides to just not bother believing that "Blacklisted current version" knows what it's talking about, since it appears not to always do so | 00:43 | |
| Laney | we came to that conclusion for syncpackage too | 00:43 |
| cjwatson | from what I can tell all it means is this_version > parent_version, and auto-sync can check that for itself ... | 00:44 |
| Laney | except when it's set incorrectly or LP forgets to clear it | 00:45 |
| cjwatson | exactly | 00:45 |
| cjwatson | it's poor naming anyway | 00:46 |

| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 841372 in launchpad "Incorrect auto-blacklisting in DSD? (affects: 1) (heat: 7)" [Low,Triaged] | 00:47 |
| cjwatson | yeah, just found that from the ref in syncpackage | 00:47 |
| cjwatson | I think I have less rabbit-holey bugs to use my LP hacking time on though :) | 00:48 |
| Laney | shame, as per-version blacklisting could be generally useful | 00:48 |
| cjwatson | mm, sounds no fun to maintain though | 00:48 |
| cjwatson | I suspect you'd often want a range of some kind | 00:48 |
| cjwatson | "upstream 1.4 sucked, but we hear 1.5 is better" | 00:48 |
| Laney | probably | 00:50 |
| cjwatson | ooh, I should use copyPackages, that doesn't send mail | 00:54 |
| cjwatson | (1) done | 01:08 |
| Laney | goodnight. tomorrow I try to get local LP reasonably functional. | 01:10 |
| * cjwatson posts a lengthy followup to bug 597041 on the binary->source lookup issue | 01:51 | |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 597041 in python-launchpadlib (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "No way to get from binary package to source package (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/597041 | 01:51 |
| cjwatson | OK! I think I'll be able to run an API auto-sync later today | 12:37 |
| cjwatson | Will check in the code a bit later; have to run now | 12:37 |
| cjwatson | The only significant thing that's not yet implemented is component checks on binaries, which isn't desperately important for the moment | 12:37 |
