dholbachgood morning08:04
dholbachfor some reason the bot in #ubuntu-devel ("@pilot in" which is supposed to change the topic) does not work11:14
dholbachdoes anyone have an idea?11:14
AlanBelllooking dholbach11:39
dholbachawesome11:40
AlanBelldholbach: well I can't see the problem, the channel is +t which should mean anyone can set the topic, there are no specific flags for the bot, but there don't need to be. The bot is there11:47
dholbachhm, ok11:47
Myrttihuh?11:47
jussi+t means cant chane topic...11:47
ubot4`jussi: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)11:47
Myrttidoesn't +t work the opposite11:47
LjLAlanBell: +t means only ops can set the topic11:47
AlanBelloh, in that case maybe it should be -t11:47
AlanBelludevbot is not opped11:47
Myrttiit doesn't need to be11:48
LjLdoes it try to change through chanserv or directly though?11:48
Myrttiif it's got the right flags in chanserv11:48
AlanBellit has no rights in chanserv11:48
AlanBellshould it be +t in chanserv?11:48
AlanBelland why did it suddenly stop working?11:49
LjLeither +t in chanserv, if it tries to change it through chanserv, or +o, if it wants to change it directly... i'd presume it does it through chanserv, makes more sense11:50
AlanBellwell it is +t in chanserv now11:51
AlanBelldholbach: want to try poking it again, see if that fixed it?11:52
AlanBellit is a ts2 bot11:52
dholbachAlanBell, no dice AFAICS11:57

AlanBellthat is it happening last, oddly it says the topic was set by cjwatson, not by the bot11:58
Myrttimicahgcjwatson: I think the channels got set to +t somehow a few days go11:59
LjLAlanBell: "cjwatson: I think the channels got set to +t somehow a few days go"11:59
LjLMyrtti: :P11:59
* Myrtti blinks11:59
AlanBellthat would do it then11:59
Myrttiwhere did the cjwatson from my paste disappear?!?!12:00
Myrttianyway12:00
Myrttinot that I'm the right person to say this or anything, but if the channel used not to have +t, then why use a bot to change the topic?12:01
Myrttijust wondering12:01
jussibecause its simpler than fixing the topic everytime people break it ;)12:02
AlanBelljust a shortcut, and it might create reports over time of who the patchpilot was12:02
AlanBellany obvious downside to opping the bot?12:04
AlanBellI opped it for now, we can look at getting it to use chanserv at some stage12:08
