thomiOrdering bugs by age in the new bug UI seems really broken. I get 1 day old, 187 days old, 28 days old - in that order.01:04
lifelessthomi: it orders by task age, not bug age.01:16
lifelessyes, its confusing.01:16
thomioh, ok.01:16
lifelessthe squad doing it felt it was the least of several evils01:16
* thomi needs to learn the difference between a task and a bug :)01:16

apw^^ do we have a problem with the per release links in the versions pages ?08:58
apwi assume we released something today08:58
wgrantapw: What's the problem?08:59
apwwgrant, ok i think it may be an old problem, as its possibly 'has an epoch' specific09:00
apwwgrant, try and click on the package versions next to the arrows >09:00
wgrantThat's quite plausible, and it works fine for me.09:00
wgrantWhich browser?09:00
apwthis is chromium09:00
* apw fires up firefox to compare09:01
wgrantFirefox here09:01
apwwgrant, ok so its ok in firefox, and ok on the linux package, but not pulseaudio which has an epoch ... /me pokes09:01
wgrantI remember a bug here.09:03
wgrantAnd it only affects some people.09:03
wgrantBut I can't remember why.09:03

wgrantBug #82017409:03
ubot5Launchpad bug 820174 in Launchpad itself "Expanders on DistributionSourcePackage:+index broken by LP.cache changes" [Critical,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/82017409:03
wgrantHm09:03
wgrantBut that's fixed.09:03
apwwgrant, yeah i think it must be a chromium bug as the source of the page looks all fine in its own 'view source'09:03
* wgrant tries in Chromium09:04
apwwgrant, and its not the expander arrows, but the normal link on the name next to them thats the problem09:04
wgrantOh09:04
wgrantWhat happens when you try them?09:04
apwthey are invalid and nothing happens09:04
wgrantAh09:05
wgrantInteresting09:05
wgrantYeah, Chromium trims everything before the colon.09:05
wgrantHow Windowsy of it.09:05
apwthey are %31:1.1-0ubuntu14 stylee09:05
apw          <a href="1:1.1-0ubuntu14">09:05
apwbut that is whats in the source09:06
apwhmmm, has to be a parser bug in chromium09:06
wgrant: is fine in URLs AFAICT09:07
apwwgrant, is it?09:07
wgrantAs in in the RFC09:07
apwhow is a browser supposed to know 1:foo is not protocol type 1 ?09:07
wgrantAh, true.09:07
apwnow it may be a protocol has to start with a letter or something09:07
apwand i be making it ./1: will fix it09:08
wgrantWe can probably just quote the :09:08

PhantomasIs it possible to change the subscribing policy of a mailing list in Launchpad? I'd like everyone to be able to subscribe to our mailing list.11:12
czajkowskiPhantomas: is it a LP mailing list?11:14
czajkowskiPhantomas: people join a team on lp then join that's how it works.11:14
Phantomasczajkowski: If we talk about a project developers team, owning branches etc, I don't think it would be a good idea to allow everyone to become a member just to be able to subscribe to the mailing list11:15
czajkowskiPhantomas: thats how lp lists work though.11:16
Phantomasalright, but I think this feature could become more flexible... The archives are public, so I think there is no reason to not allow subscriptions to everyone.11:19
czajkowskiPhantomas: http://blog.launchpad.net/cool-new-stuff/contacting-teams-is-easier-and-more-reliable  that was done recently to help people11:20
czajkowskiso they can contact the team11:21
afiestashey there, I need to build a package from a different source repository and add the resulting package to our ppa11:22
afiestasI have been trying to figure out where to create a branch for it here: https://code.launchpad.net/~cyberspace (owned by cyberspace) but so far no luck11:23
afiestasI'm admin but not owner of the project, I can add members change details etc11:23
afiestasso I guess I should be able to add a branch right?11:23
Phantomasczajkowski: Yes, it's a nice feature, but it doesn't allow users to be informed on the development process and decisions made in the mailing list. They have to browse the archives.11:25
lifelessPhantomas: setup a second team11:33
lifelessPhantomas: one team for the list, one team for access controls.11:33
Phantomaslifeless: the team for the list would be a sub-team?11:34

mptCome on Launchpad, all I want is a list of packages that have "policykit" in their names, it shouldn't be that strenuous...15:30
czajkowskimpt: are you breaking things ?15:31
nigelbmpt: Isn't it easier done with apt-cache search policykit?15:31
mptczajkowski, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+search?text=policykit has timed out for me about six times in a row so far15:31
mptnigelb, I didn't know that :-)15:31
mptthanks15:31
nigelb:)15:31
mptnigelb, except that they look like binary packages, whereas I was more interested in a source package I can report a bug on15:32
mpt(I know that it's not called plain "policykit", because that's a package that's been obsoleted by something else)15:32
nigelbah15:33
nigelbmpt: alternative place to search is packages.ubuntu.com15:33
czajkowskiI suspect there are either a lotta bugs with that tag or duplicates/people assinged to them and it's causing it to fail :/15:33
mpthttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit-1 << winner15:33
nigelbha!15:34
nigelbdid you get it off LP?15:34
mptczajkowski, it doesn't involve Bugs at all afaict, purely package search15:34
mptnigelb, no, by guessing from all the "-1"s in the apt-cache results15:34
nigelbaha! :)15:34
nigelbSo, packages.u.c nails it straight away.15:35

dobeympt: does ubuntu-bug not tab complete installed package names? :)17:02
mptdobey, the textual detritus ubuntu-bug attaches to a bug report is seldom relevant to the kind of bugs I report, so I don't often use it17:04
dobeympt: ah. apt-cache show tab completes through available binary packages, and you can |grep ^Source it to get the source package name, as well. and if there's no "Source" the source package name should be the same as the binary package name17:06
mptah17:07
mptI don't use "^" in patterns often enough to remember that it's "^" and not something else17:07
mptbut thanks dobey :-)17:07

JanCare there any rules/guidelines about how often the LP API can be queried?19:09
dobeyJanC: "don't abuse it"19:30
JanCdobey: if you list info from LP with a "live" query on another site, others can do the "abuse"19:34
JanCeither intentionally or not19:34
JanC"unintentionally" would be lots of visitors on the page that does the live query19:36
dobeyJanC: you should do caching so that you only make a request to launchpad.net every N seconds or so, if that's the case19:37
dobeythere's no point doing the same query 3000 times in the same second, for example19:38
dobeyand several seconds of delay isn't a huge penalty when looking at the other site19:38
JanCright, that's what I thought, and I personally think 1 query / second is overkill already  ;)19:38
JanCdobey: so there are no general rules about this?19:39
JanCor hard limits ?19:39
dobeyi have a site doing some queries to google docs, and cache it with a 90s timeout, but it's a low traffic site19:39
dobeyJanC: i suspect it's "if you abuse it, you or your site will get blocked pretty quickly"19:40
dobeyhopefully you're only doing anonymous api calls if it's from another site19:41
JanCmost web APIs I know have hard rate-limits, that's also why I was asking (and I am gathering arguments to provide to somebody else who is making that site ;) )19:41
dobeyi don't think there's any way to use the API with a token that isn't associated with a user19:41
dobeyJanC: indeed, but a lot are also just "don't be stupid"19:42
JanCthey are querying for team members19:42
JanCof about 10 (sub)teams19:42
dobeythe google+ api is nice, as you can pass on the user's IP through, so that the limit is based on each IP, rather than your api token19:42
JanCdobey: so how does Google know those IPs are for real?  ;)19:43
* JanC thinks they have some other monitoring going on too19:43
dobeybecause writing something that abused that would be a total waste of effort, really19:44
dobeyso they probably don't really care19:44
dobeyand there's no real reason to abuse it19:44
dobeyanyway, cache it19:45
dobeyteam memberships don't change often enough not to19:45
JanCdobey: yeah, my argument too; even a 1h delay isn't really important for that IMO19:47
dobeyindeed19:49

astraljavaApologies if this is a hot topic right now, but are there problems with LP right now? It seems roughly 10%, very recently even less, of my requests are being served. Times out almost all the time.20:10
dobeyi haven't had any issues with it really, no20:12
astraljavaSo it's some sort of a routing issue, then. Thanks.20:13
dobeywell, it could be something with launchpad20:13
dobeyare you getting timeouts on launchpad itself (with an OOPS id printed out), or timeouts connecting to it?20:14
astraljavadobey: Connecting, and looks like a dns issue. $ tracepath https://launchpad.net20:14
astraljavagethostbyname2: Unknown host20:14
astraljavaSorry for the noise.20:14
astraljavaerr... no, apparently I just don't know how to use that. :)20:15
astraljavatracepath launchpad.net let's me up to hop 22: eth0.chenet.canonical.com20:16
astraljava...and now it serves again. Again, sorry for the noise. I get me coat.20:18
