littlegirlDoes anyone in here do any work on the Kubuntu docs?01:24
j1mclittlegirl: i'm not sure. maybe Darkwing does, but i'm not sure.01:30
littlegirlj1mc: Yeah, he does, thanks, but he isn't on. I got around it by rewriting that section. (:01:30
j1mcok : )01:30
jbichaj1mc: howdy, good to hear work's going well for you01:41
j1mchey jbicha - thanks01:43
j1mci will feel better once i have the offer in hand, but i think it's a formality at this point.01:43
jbichait looks like we'll be down to the wire again for Ubuntu docs, I meant to blog more asking for contributors01:46
j1mcwhen is string freeze?01:46
j1mci've been focusing more on gnome lately, but could pitch in some.01:46
jbichalol, docs freeze is supposedly in 5 or 6 days which isn't enough time01:46
jbichaI'm going to ask for 1 more week, that should still give the translators plenty of time01:47
jbichahttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule01:47
j1mcone more week makes sense01:50
j1mcbbiab - laundry is done.01:51
jbichaat least there was more time after UI Freeze than last cycle, & the UIFE's so far haven't really messed with Docs stuff as much01:51
jbichagetting GNOME Shell 3.4 into Ubuntu took a lot of my effort the past two weeks, that was a headache01:52
jbichaj1mc: you ever use meld? it's a lifesaver for merging the GNOME user guide into Ubuntu's fork01:53
j1mcjbicha: no, i haven't used that. what is it?01:54
littlegirlI was told string freeze is March 22.01:54
jbichalittlegirl: that's correct01:55
jbichaj1mc: http://meldmerge.org/01:56
jbichaI couldn't imagine doing the merge without something like that01:57
* j1mc nods01:58
j1mcit pulls in sweet, sweet dependencies, too.  "libbonobo2, libgnomeui"  :)01:59
j1mcold skool01:59
littlegirlI'm doing my first bzr push ever to the Launchpad server and this is what it says to me:02:02
littlegirlhe authenticity of host 'bazaar.launchpad.net (91.189.90.11)' can't be established.02:02
littlegirlRSA key fingerprint is 9d:38:3a:63:b1:d5:6f:c4:44:67:53:49:2e:ee:fc:89.02:02
littlegirlAre you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?02:02
jbichahaha, oh does it?02:02
littlegirlIs there something I should have done in bzr first to establish the authenticity of the RSA key fingerprint?02:03
jbichalittlegirl: I just hit yes, ssh does that the first time you connect02:03
j1mclittlegirl: if it's your first push, i would say it's ok to accept it.02:03
j1mcyou didn't need to do anything beforehand02:04
jbichaj1mc: meld recommends python-gnome2 which pulls in the old stuff02:04
littlegirlThanks. I may have waited too long. Trying it again.02:04
jbichalittlegirl: yeah it gives a far more scary message if the key ever changes02:04
littlegirlHmmm, now it says this:02:04
littlegirlPermission denied (publickey).02:04
littlegirlbzr: ERROR: Connection closed: Unexpected end of message. Please check connectivity and permissions, and report a bug if problems persist.02:04
littlegirlThis is the command I've been using: bzr push lp:~littlergirl/kubuntu-docs/basics02:05
j1mclittlegirl: did you set up your ssh key on launchpad?02:05
littlegirlBy the way, I totally agree about Meld. That program rules. (:02:05
littlegirlj1mc: Yep, I did that last night. Is there somewhere I need to go to tell bzr about it?02:06
littlegirlI don't know if you're able to view this page since it's within my account, but the key shows up here: https://launchpad.net/~littlergirl/+editsshkeys02:07
j1mclittlegirl: when you do  "ls -l ~/.ssh/" what do you get?02:07
j1mcit might be ssh permissions on your local computer02:07

littlegirl-rw-r--r-- 1 little little  399 2012-03-16 00:37 MySSHKey.pub02:08
littlegirlThe logofcreationofsshkey.txt file is something I made by copying everything in Bash so that I'd have a record of how it went.02:09
j1mccan you try "chmod 644 MySSHKey.pub" and then re-enter the "ls -l" command?02:09
j1mcsorry, "chmod 644 ~/.ssh/MySSHKey.pub"02:09
jbichaI don't see her SSH key at https://launchpad.net/~littlergirl mine is listed on https://launchpad.net/~jbicha02:10
j1mcsorry again. try this: "chmod 600 ~/.ssh/MySSHKey.pub"02:11
j1mcjbicha: agreed02:11
littlegirl-rw------- 1 little little  399 2012-03-16 22:10 MySSHKey.pub02:13
littlegirlI generated it with kgpg. Should I try doing it another way?02:14
littlegirlWhoops, never mind - that was my pgp key. Too many keys in too short of a time. (:02:15
j1mclittlegirl: ok - i think your key permissions are set correctly now. but we still don't see your key up on launchpad.net02:16
j1mcif you look at https://launchpad.net/~jwcampbell  ...  you'll see my SSH keys02:16
littlegirlj1mc: Can I delete it and put it in again?02:17
j1mcsame for if you go to https://launchpad.net/~jbicha02:17
littlegirlj1mc: Yeah, I see yours. Mine just has a little pencil for editing, but when I click edit, it's there.02:17
j1mcyou don't need to delete the keys and put them up again...02:17
littlegirlWeehaw, now you should see it. (:02:18
littlegirlI deleted it from Launchpad and pasted it in again and it took it. (:02:18
j1mclittlegirl: https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/CreatingAnSSHKeyPair02:18
j1mclook at "registering the key with launchpad"02:19
j1mclittlegirl: ok - i see your key on launchpad now02:19
j1mcyou can try your upload again02:19
j1mc"SSH keys: little@MYCOMPUTER"02:19
littlegirlTrying the upload again gives me this: Permission denied (publickey).02:20
kjsmorning02:21
littlegirlMorning. (:02:22
j1mclittlegirl: try "chmod 600 ~/.ssh"02:22
littlegirlj1mc: Hmmm, it still won't let me upload.02:23
littlegirlIt still says Permission denied (publickey). even after that command.02:23
j1mcok - maybe give it a few minutes - you just uploaded that key02:23
littlegirlj1mc: Okay, will do. I feel bad, because I promised I'd get going on the documentation and I've got one done and am ready to do more. (:02:24
j1mclittlegirl: also... can you move those "instructions" out of your .ssh folder?02:25
jbichalittlegirl: don't feel bad, the first contribution takes a lot of effort02:25
j1mci doubt that owuld have an affect, but it can't hurt to not have that file in there.02:25
j1mcjbicha: do you think launchpad might need a few minutes to fully register her key, or is there something else you can think of.02:26
littlegirlLOL, I'm not allowed into the folder now. It says permission denied. How do I undo that last chmod 600 command?02:26
j1mclittlegirl: sorry, try "chmod 644 ~/.ssh"02:27
jbichayeah the ssh key is there which is a good sign02:27
littlegirlIt still says access denied. I even closed Dolphin and opened it again.02:28
j1mc... see, i was writing up docs for seahorse, but didn't get them finished. this is what i get.02:28
j1mc:(02:28
jbichalittlegirl: what's your computer named? ie what comes after the @ sign in your terminal prompt?02:28
littlegirlMYCOMPUTER02:28
jbichaok, just checking02:29
littlegirlcd ~/.ssh02:29
littlegirlbash: cd: /home/little/.ssh: Permission denied02:29
littlegirlThis has to be a government conspiracy. (: (: (:02:29
j1mclittlegirl: sorry, try "chmod 700 ~/.ssh"02:29
littlegirlj1mc: That worked. Okay, the log file I had made is gone. Trying the upload again...02:30
littlegirlNope, it's still giving me permission denied because of the public key.02:31
j1mccan you enter the "ls -l ~/.ssh/" command again?02:32
jbichaoh the government doesn't want you contributing to Kubuntu docs?02:33
littlegirljbicha: -rw------- 1 little little  399 2012-03-16 22:10 MySSHKey.pub02:33
littlegirljbicha: Anything is possible. (:02:34
j1mcwhat about the other files?02:34
littlegirlj1mc:02:34
littlegirl-rw-r--r-- 1 little little  540 2012-03-16 22:03 known_hosts02:34
littlegirl-rw------- 1 little little 1743 2012-03-16 00:37 MySSHKey02:34
jbichauh oh, what did you do with your MySSHKey.pub ?02:36
j1mcjbicha: shouldn't there be something like "id_rsa.pub" or something?02:36
j1mcnot MySSHKey.pub?  :/  i'm not sure02:37
j1mcnot sure if it matters02:37
jbichathis is mine: http://paste.ubuntu.com/887272/02:38
littlegirlj1mc: Yeah, I'm reading the instructions page from the link above and I think, since I apparently didn't use a common name for the file, it's considered a custom file name, and it suggests I edit the config file and tell it which file to use for Launchpad.02:38
j1mci would probably use a common file name02:38
jbichaid_rsa is default02:39
littlegirlThen my permissions on my pub file are definitely wrong because groups and others can't read the file.02:39
littlegirlCan I rename the file manually or will SSH get mad if I tamper with it?02:39
j1mci would try changing the files to "id_rsa" and "id_rsa.pub"02:40
j1mci think manually should be ok02:40
littlegirlj1mc: Okay, trying that...02:40
j1mclittlegirl: the permissions on keys are supposed to be more restrictive.02:40
jbichalittlegirl: I don't think you necessarily have to let groups & others read your public keys, that's just the default02:40
j1mcif they are set less restrictively, the server will reject them.02:40
littlegirlThat worked! Thanks so much!!!!02:41
littlegirlApparently it cared what the key names were. (:02:42
j1mcwoo!  the government ban on your kubuntu contributions has been rescinded!02:42
j1mcsweet freedom. :)02:42
littlegirlWeehaw! And you all were there for my very first push. (:02:42
j1mccongrats02:42
littlegirlj1mc: Thanks! I might still need help. I have a few more steps to follow before I'm done with it officially. (:02:43
j1mcok02:43
littlegirlOh, that is so cool. It looks like I'm good to go, and can have some fun with documentation. (:02:47
littlegirlThank you so much to all of you - I couldn't have done it without your help. (:02:48
* littlegirl hugs everyone02:48
