[00:00] <wgrant> pikkachu: No, dependencies aren't taken into account. But eg. the orig.tar.gz can be used by multiple versions of the package, and it won't be removed until everything that references it is no longer published.
[00:01] <wgrant> The diffs won't be updated; there are bugs about requesting new ones.
[00:15] <pikkachu> I'm sorry my client crashed, I'm back now...
[00:19] <pikkachu> why doesn't my ppa show the changelog? I receive a message in the update manager that the site does not support changelogs...
[00:20] <pikkachu> is this a bug? because I thought it would display debian/changelog
[00:21] <wgrant> pikkachu: PPAs don't provide changelogs for update-manager at this time.
[00:23] <pikkachu> ah ok thanks...
[00:26] <pikkachu> thanks for the other answer wgrant
[00:29] <pikkachu> both published versions 20120323 and 20120331 have pidgin_2.10.0.orig.tar.bz2 as source base, I'm not sure if it should be something different... (I mean I dont get what was said about the relation between orig.tar.gz and package deletion, sorry :( )
[00:31] <pikkachu> I'm not sure if this is a Launchpad question, sorry if not, but what do you guys do when *a patch itself* is changed on a new package version? I just rewrote the patch file, I didn't add a new patch...
[00:32] <pikkachu> I also wanted to rename the patch to username_Description.patch and so I did...
[02:54] <pikkachu> is there already a bug files for changelogs in ppas?
[02:55] <pikkachu> *filed
[02:56] <wgrant> pikkachu: Yes.
[03:55] <pikkachu> ok wgrant, thanks
[06:03] <pikkachu> can I randomly change the OpenPGP keys in LP account then using the new keys to submit to the same ppa?
[14:59] <bobweaver> Hello there I would like to get better at filling out bug reports on LP I think that it is cool as all heck that there is now something that connects me to launchpad when something crashes! It is great and I have got to know a little about LP and look forward to learning more so that is why I am here. I would like to know more about putting use-full info up on the bugs page. Take a look at this bug it effects me at least that wgat the launch
[14:59] <bobweaver> ers say https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-lens-music/+bug/917974         LOOk at post #1 see who there is a list of stuff that he put
[15:00] <bobweaver> how do I also log (I think it called) like that
[15:03] <dobey> bobweaver: i don't think there is much you could add to that. it's a background service that crashed. it was happening for me as well
[15:04] <bobweaver> cool dobey
[15:04] <bobweaver> You all did such a good job on this bug tracking system
[15:05] <bobweaver> this is going to solve so many issues
[15:05] <bobweaver> thanks
[16:45] <cousin_luigi> Hello.
[16:47] <cousin_luigi> Do you think a PPA with a scripting package downloading and extracting otherwise non-redistributable pacakges would be legally problematic?
[16:48] <cousin_luigi> Namely, something akin to https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/java but for the PPAPI-based flash plugin supplied with the Chrome browser.
[16:53] <dobey> cousin_luigi: ask your lawyer? this isn't a legal advice channel, though i don't see any problem with it as long as you build the packages properly :)
[16:54] <cousin_luigi> dobey: I see:)
[16:54] <mrevell> cousin_luigi, You can find the PPA terms of use at https://help.launchpad.net/PPATermsofUse ... that's as far as I can help you. This paragraph might help most: "You understand and agree that any content you upload to PPAs must be freely redistributable by Canonical, and released under a license permitting redistribution free of charge."
[16:55] <dobey> ^^ what he said
[17:00] <plars> Hi, I'm having trouble changing the owner of a branch from myself to a team that I'm part of, I seem to recall having this issue before and someone said there was a bug in the UI for this, but there was a script that would change it
[17:00] <plars> anyone aware of this?
[17:01] <cousin_luigi> mrevell: Seems to me the script itself would be well within those terms.
[17:03] <czajkowski> plars: what branch ?
[17:05] <36DAA2KXS> Should i report issues i am having with Kubuntu 12.04 beta 2 running live from usb , on launch pad? If yes, how do i do it?
[17:05] <czajkowski> 36DAA2KXS: nope
[17:05] <czajkowski> 36DAA2KXS: have you asked in #kubuntu ?
[17:06] <36DAA2KXS> yeah they told me to head to #ubuntu+1 and was told to log with launchpad from there
[17:06] <czajkowski> well log it via laundpad or via your computer?
[17:06] <36DAA2KXS> its fairly minor, typical beta stuff i assume, but just wanted to help if i could
[17:07] <czajkowski> ok let me find out for you
[17:07] <plars> czajkowski: https://code.launchpad.net/~pwlars/linaro-python-dashboard-bundle/trunk I'm trying to change the owner to linaro-validation
[17:08] <czajkowski> jussi: can you help 36DAA2KXS please
[17:08] <czajkowski> plars: let me go and ask
[17:11] <czajkowski> plars: I've asked webops to do it for me as I can't
[17:11] <plars> czajkowski: thanks, so it's still a known issue I guess?
[17:11] <plars> czajkowski: I remember having this problem a long time ago on a lot of branches, and someone gave me a script that could be used to fix them all - just can't find the script now :)
[17:14] <dobey> plars: just branch it, and push it back up to the new team owner url instead
[17:15] <dobey> that's what i always do anyway, when i need to do that
[17:18] <plars> ah, I think I see the problem - there's another branch owned by that user, but it's under a different series
[17:25] <thedac> plars: I get "Linaro Validation Team already has a branch for Linaro Dashboard Bundle utilities called trunk." when changing ownership on that branch
[17:25] <plars> thedac: yeah, it does... trying to sort this out
[17:25] <plars> thedac: It looks to me like the one owned by me is identical
[17:25] <plars> thedac: and that the linaro-validation one is the branch associated with the trunk series
[17:26] <thedac> right. My guess is you will need to change the name of this one to something other than "trunk"
[17:26] <plars> thedac: so I think I can just delete mine, but another member of the team says he's just trying to push to lp:linaro-python-dashboard-bundle, and it's not allowing him because it's my branch that it tries to push to
[17:28] <thedac> hmm, let me see what that expands to
[17:28] <plars> thedac: ah, he just told me the error is: bzr: ERROR: Cannot lock LockDir(chroot-88222864:///%2Bbranch/linaro-python-dashboard-bundle/.bzr/branch/lock): Transport operation not possible: readonly transport
[17:28] <plars> that doesn't look like a permission problem
[17:28] <thedac> agreed
[18:56] <cousin_luigi> bye
[22:33] <bitplane-> Hi, say I want to make an app and get the community involved, what's the best way to go about it?
[22:36] <bitplane-> Do I write a blueprint, start a thread on ubuntu forums?
[22:36] <bitplane-> or just start hacking then announce it later?
[23:33] <pikkachu> how do I find all bugs for which I am *not* subscribed?
[23:33] <lifeless> for i in (1 to infinity); am-i-subscribed?
[23:35] <pikkachu> well it's not infinity though :P
[23:36] <pikkachu> actually I mean "All related bugs" except the ones I'm subscribed
[23:36] <lifeless> ah, thats perhaps more useful :)
[23:36] <lifeless> I'm not sure offhand though, perhaps +assigned + +commented etc ?
[23:49] <pikkachu> hmm I got it with a dirty diff hack on the pages :D
