ojwbnot sure if there's much you can do about it, but vector.us seem to be spamming people who have translated things on launchpad01:27
ojwbi can forward the mail I received if you want it01:28
lifelessojwb: sure, or open a bug and attach it01:48
ojwblifeless: I could, but if there's not much that can be done it seems a waste of everyone's time01:48
lifelesshard to say what can be done without the nfo01:50
ojwblifeless: hmm, what's best to file it against?02:01

Pikkachuhi, how to avoid a PPA build to use LP translations instead of original po files?02:06

chrisccoulsonexcellent, thanks10:07
wgrantIt's getting shorter and shorter, and people ask here maybe 1/10 times we do it, so it seems not entirely necessary.10:09

Pikkachuhi, these packages should already be deleted completely (passed 7 days): https://launchpad.net/~renatosilva/+archive/ppa/+packages?field.name_filter=&field.status_filter=&field.series_filter=23:35
Pikkachuwhat's happening??23:35
EvilResistanceStatus: Deleted23:36
EvilResistanceits already not published23:36
Pikkachua deleted status is not a deletion23:36
PikkachuI already saw that23:36
Pikkachuthe docs say it would be really deleted within 7 days23:37
PikkachuI was waiting for that happen, but it didn't23:37
wgrantPikkachu: Why are you waiting?23:37
wgrantIt means nothing.23:37
Pikkachuwgrant: it what?23:37
wgrantIt's purely a disk space recovery measure. Them being permanently deleted provides no benefit to you.23:38
wgrantSo there's no reason to wait.23:38
Pikkachuand I'm expecting, because docs are supposed to be correct23:38
wgrantPikkachu: The docs are there to warn you that things may not be recoverable after a week.23:39
Pikkachuit does provide benefit to me because they are all wrong packages23:39
wgrantWe don't delete them the moment they're a week + 1 second old.23:39
wgrantNo.23:39
wgrantYou still can't upload the same version ever again.23:39
wgrantEven once we delete the files.23:39
PikkachuI accidentally created them in the process of building them (I assumed the docs were ok about the packages being truly deleted within 7 days)23:40
Pikkachustill can't even when truly deleted? this is odd...23:41
wgrantWe are allowed to irretrievably remove the files after one week. But that doesn't change the usual archive consistency rules, which prevent a duplicate version from being uploaded.23:41
Pikkachuso I messed up with my ppa without even noticing :(23:42
wgrantHm?23:42
wgrantJust change the version.23:42
wgrantEasyu.23:42
Pikkachuthe current one is already ok23:42
PikkachuI just appreciate real deletion of really really useless stuff23:42
PikkachuI think the reminders for avoiding upload to the same versions are just ok, as the versions are date-based23:43
ojwbeven if it's gone from the PPA, someone may have installed it, so reusing the version is still bad23:46
Pikkachuthe error with "-P20120311" and "-P20120315" was using debian version (dash), and with "~P20120323" was that it does not supersede "0ubuntu2" as I was naturally thinking, and the error with "1:2.10.0-0ubuntu2" I can't really recall23:46
Pikkachuojwb: yeah I understand the version reusing problem... but it won't affect me as I use date as version23:47
ojwb~<something> sorts before nothing23:47
Pikkachuojwb: now I know23:48
Pikkachuwell there's one package which is not yet 7 days old, but all the others are almost 11 days old23:49
PikkachuI think I'll come back here later for requesting the deletion then, thanks all...23:49
wgrantPikkachu: Why do you care that they are deleted?23:49
wgrantThey will still appear on that page.23:50
wgrantIt's just that the files are unrecoverable.23:50
Pikkachuoh sorry I think there were more differences in the packages, like one with standalone patch and other with separate ones in debian/patches23:50
wgrantI'm confused.23:50
Pikkachuwgrant: all the wrong packages are available for download23:51
wgrantIf someone goes looking for them, yes.23:51
Pikkachuwhich is undesirable23:51
Pikkachugiven that they're wrong packages23:51
wgrantThere are lots of wrong things available for download all over the Internet if people go looking at things that people have said not to look at.23:51
wgrantIf you're installing deleted packages without knowing exactly what you're doing, you probably have bigger problems.23:52
PikkachuI don't want to join the wrong people23:52
Pikkachuwell, ok23:52
PikkachuI will ask later I think, but this is really personal... I do not like false deletions23:53
PikkachuI would call it "deactivated" instead23:53
Pikkachuthanks all anyway23:53
Pikkachua diff between the apt-get sourced versions should be empty or mostly empty though (if you suspect I'm trying to do something malicious...)23:55
