ikoniais ppa.launchpad.net just another mirror of the core repo's or is it actually posting a PPA ?10:43
ikonias/posting/hosting10:43
wgrantikonia: http://ppa.launchpad.net/ serves PPAs, not the Ubuntu primary archive.10:46
ikoniawgrant: I'm seeing a lot of people in the support channel with lines such as this10:48
ikoniahttp://ppa.launchpad.net oneiric10:48
ikoniaI'm trying to understand where this is comfing from as it's too many people for it to be someone just making a manual mistake10:48
wgrantikonia: apt-get doesn't usually show the path10:49
wgrantJust the scheme, domain and release.10:49
wgrantSo that's normal if it's from 'apt-get update' output.10:49
ikoniawgrant: even the lines (I pasted the wrong one in my example) http://ppa.launchpad.net oneiric/main i386 Packages10:50
ikonianormally you see the archive it's referencing eg: http://ppa.launchpad.net oneiric/wgrant-software10:51
wgrantikonia: No10:51
wgrantmain is the component10:51
wgrantThat line is normal, and is the same for every oneiric PPA10:52
ikoniaahh good, so I'm ujust reading it wrong, thank you10:52
wgrantYou need to check /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d10:52
wgrantYep, nothing to worry about.10:52
ikoniathat's fine, it's my reading it wrong, I thought I was having a moment here,10:52
ikoniathank you10:52
soaringskywhat's with all the oopses on lp lately?11:51
czajkowskisoaringsky: in what way? what are you doing to see the oopses11:53
soaringskyjust using launchpad. searching ubuntu bugs, working on bugs, etc11:53
soaringskyI've filed bugs for all of the oopses11:54
czajkowskisoaringsky: in some cases it's due to the bugs having many duplicates or lots of subscribers11:54
soaringskydidn't see that. I'm randomly seeing oopses just about everywhere11:55
wgrantOOPSes, or timeouts?11:56
wgrantTimeouts still have an OOPS ID, but they're a rather different situation.11:56
wgrantAnd by "everywhere" you mean the occasional bug page?11:56
soaringskytimeouts mostly. not just bug pages11:57
wgrantThe only thing that's likely to be timing out often is Ubuntu and global bug listings.11:57
wgrantSometimes some Ubuntu bug actions will time out the first couple of times.11:57
wgrantBut everything else should be pretty much OK.11:57
soaringskybug searches, package searches, performing operations, etc11:57
wgrantAh yes, package searches are the other big one.11:57
wgrantPerforming operations?11:58
wgrantOnly on bugs should that be slow.11:58
* ScottK has had timeouts on package searches quite a bit recently.11:58
wgrantYeah, /ubuntu/+search is thoroughly broken.11:58
soaringskytimeouts are happening a lot lately pretty much everywhere for me11:59
soaringskylp seems to be having issues recently11:59
wgrantThere are known issues with operations that include Ubuntu bugs.12:00
wgrantAnd Ubuntu package searches.12:00
wgrantBut those are the only commonly used pieces of functionality which time out more than ~once an hour.12:00
wgrantSo, there are major issues, but they're not *everywhere*.12:01
soaringskyI get timeouts much more often than once an hour. try once every 10 min12:01
wgrantOn Ubuntu bug operations, sure.12:01
wgrantAnd package searches time out around 5 times an hour over the entire site.12:02
soaringskynot just there12:02
soaringskyoverall, performance has been bad lately12:03
wgrantPerformance on Ubuntu bug and package search operations has been worse than normal, but overall performance is better than it has been in many years.12:04
wgrantThere's 7 pages that timed out more than 3 times an hour yeterday, and they're all either Ubuntu bug searches or /ubuntu/+search12:04
soaringskywell, performance was good until a few days ago12:04
wgrantOK, now that I can entirely refute :)12:05
soaringskytrue, lp is better than it was years ago12:06
wgrantThere have been no more timeouts this week than last.12:06
wgrantOur page performance report says we're doing about 5% better overall than last week.12:06
soaringskybut some days it's just more sluggish than others12:06
wgrantIt depends on what you're doing.12:07
wgrantI have some work in progress which will hopefully make Ubuntu bug operations several times faster in a few weeks.12:07
wgrantAnd that will resolve around 3/4 of our total timeouts.12:07
soaringskyOTOH, are lp servers in other locations being considered?12:07
soaringskypacket travel time to America is in the hundreds of ms12:08
StevenKLaunchpad is not in the US.12:09
soaringskyI know, that's why. packets have to travel across the pond12:10
StevenKTry it from Australia. :-)12:10
soaringskyStevenK: ouch12:10
soaringskylp servers in other locations would probably help page load times a lot12:12
ScottKwgrant: If I used the +queue page more durning non-freeze periods it'd show up on your list too.12:32
StevenKDistroSeries:+queue appears in the top ten from time to time.12:34
StevenKSadly. :-(12:34
wgrantYeah12:34
bigjoolsI hate that page12:35
czajkowskibigjools: and good morning to you :)12:43
aleksander_mhey; can I copy a package from official ubuntu precise repo to my oneiric ppa?12:44
aleksander_mor do I need to build it myself for my oneiric ppa using the .orig.tar.gz and debian dir from precise?12:45
=== wedtm|away is now known as wedtm
geseraleksander_m: not sure if the web UI allows that (it should be possible with the LP API), but are you sure that you don't need a rebuild of the package (are the dependencies fulfillable in oneiric)?14:17
=== wedtm is now known as wedtm|away
dobeyaleksander_m: you would need to backport it to your ppa. you should append ~oneiric1 to the version in debian/changelog for example, and may need to make other changes to the source if it doesn't build on oneiric as-is.14:49
aleksander_mgeser, dobey: I just found the required package version for oneiric in another PPA, and there I can copy packages from that PPA to mine14:50
aleksander_ma rebuild would be needed if I were taking the package from precise, yes; but when I copy a package from one PPA to another one I can request to get the package rebuilt14:52
aleksander_mI just don't see why I cannot copy a package from ubuntu repos (i.e. no PPA) into my PPA; assuming the ubuntu repo for the release targeted in the PPA doesn't have the package being copied14:53
aleksander_mits probably just a feature not exposed in the web interface, as geser says probably possible with the LP API14:55
dobeyaleksander_m: because the ubuntu repo for the release doesn't have the package. at that point you might as well just require the new version of ubuntu for your own package, and build for it, than for the older one that doesn't have it14:55
dobeyaleksander_m: it's called backporting for a reason :)14:55
dobeynew package in precise might require other newer packages, which might require other newer packages, and so on and so forth. it's better to backport and rebuild against the older versions if it can be done14:56
aleksander_mdobey, but with PPAs I can request to copy a package from PPA A (precise) to PPA B (oneiric) with a rebuild in between14:56
dobeyaleksander_m: you can't copy to a different release14:56
dobeyaleksander_m: you can copy a package from one ppa to another, but it will build for the same release14:56
aleksander_myou sure? I just saw the combobox 1 hour ago14:56
dobeyyes14:57
aleksander_mlet me recheck14:57
dobeyyou can copy it, but it will build for precise, not oneiric, if it was for precise in the original ppa14:57
dobeyyou can't copy across releases14:57
aleksander_mdobey, humm.. then why the "Destination series:" combobox when copying packages?14:58
dobeyi don't know. it makes no sense to me14:59
wgrantdobey, aleksander_m: It will build in the target series if you tell it to rebuild.14:59
wgrantOtherwise it will copy the existing binaries into the target series.14:59
aleksander_mthat's whay I assumed, yes14:59
dobeywgrant: that seems broken15:00
wgrantdobey: Howso?15:00
dobeywgrant: does it copy any needed dependencies from the newer series automagically?15:00
wgrantdobey: No.15:00
dobeyright15:00
wgrantJust as it won't stop you from uploading something that will FTBFS.15:01
wgrantWe have little choice but to trust you to not do broken things :)15:01
dobeywell, that seems like a feature destined to create a world of broken PPAs15:01
dobeylike, you don't really need to know what you're doing to break things that way. at least having to download, make changes, and re-upload and try to do a backport, it requires *some* attempt to avoid breaking things15:02
aleksander_mI prefer to just try to install the new deb in the system, and if it goes in, it should be safe to just copy it to the PPA, even without rebuild15:04
aleksander_mas long as the original deb's dependencies are well stated of course15:05
wgrantdobey: Sure, but people can only break their own PPAs :)15:05
wgrantdobey: This is a useful feature for many people.15:05
* wgrant sleeps.15:06
dobeywell, in providing answers to people, i prefer to tell them the best way to do something, that avoids breaking things :)15:09
