| thinkndev | What does it mean when "Packaging Branch Status: OUT-OF-DATE" occurs when bzr-branching a project. | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| thinkndev | *package. | 00:04 |
| ScottK | It means what you got is out of date and not what's currently in the archive. | 00:06 |
| thinkndev | Ah, so it's not good when that happens. How can this be fixed? | 00:10 |
| thinkndev | I've been looking at this right now | 00:10 |
| thinkndev | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/934517 | 00:10 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 934517 in update-notifier (Ubuntu) "update-notifier instructs to click "check for updates" although there is no such option" [Medium,Confirmed] | 00:10 |
| ScottK | Whining at someone on the appropriate mailing list, which is, I think ubuntu-distributed-devel@lists.ubuntu.com. | 00:11 |
| ScottK | Myself, I just stay away from the branches and pull the source from the archive. | 00:11 |
| ScottK | There use is entirely optional. | 00:11 |
| thinkndev | ahh, I see. | 00:12 |
| thinkndev | I'm new to development, btw. Where can I find the update-notifier archive? | 00:13 |
| ScottK | If you look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier you'll see the most recent version is 0.119ubuntu15 | 00:15 |
| thinkndev | yeah, and from bzr, i pulled 0.119ubuntu10 | 00:15 |
| ScottK | If you have the package devscripts installed, you can get it with dget https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/update-notifier_0.119ubuntu15.dsc | 00:15 |
| thinkndev | what is a .dsc file? | 00:17 |
| ScottK | It's part of the Debian source package (the format we use) | 00:17 |
| ScottK | dget will use that to also download the rest of the package. | 00:18 |
| thinkndev | from what I heard, it contains metadata of a package. | 00:19 |
| ScottK | It does | 00:20 |
| thinkndev | Now, reading the bug description, it talks that the problem exists in Precise alpha. Does that mean it's reproducible in future versions? | 00:28 |
| thinkndev | Is the precise stable considered as precise alpha? | 00:28 |
| RAOF | Unless it's been accidentally fixed (or fixded but the bug being missed) it probably still exists. | 00:29 |
| thinkndev | how can I reproduce this specific problem? The directions don't seem suffice... | 00:32 |
| RAOF | If you can't reproduce it, then maybe it's fixed? | 00:37 |
| RAOF | Ah. String fix. | 00:38 |
| RAOF | You can see whether those strings referenced have changed. | 00:38 |

| paultag | Anyone know offhand how the Ubuntu theming is handled? E.g. for GDM, etc? I know desktop-base isn't used | 17:52 |
| stgraber | paultag: well, for gdm I doubt there's really much modification as ubuntu no longer uses it. The rest should be covered by ubuntu-artwork | 18:06 |
| paultag | stgraber: ACK, thank you | 18:07 |
| trijntje | Hi all, before I figured out how to properly use ppa's, I messed around a lot and deleted a bunch of ppa's. Is there a way to revive the default ppa ~user/+archive/ppa after it has been deleted? | 18:57 |
| paultag | trijntje: you might consider asking in #launchpad, but they use very exacting terms about PPA deletions being 4evah | 18:58 |
| paultag | trijntje: but the LP guys should be able to explain it better then that | 18:58 |
| Laney | I think it would just be easier to move on from that name | 18:59 |
| Laney | call it phoenix | 18:59 |
| trijntje | Yeah, I was afraid of that, trial and error is not always the best method I guess ;) | 18:59 |
| paultag | nope :) | 19:17 |
| paultag | Laney++ | 19:17 |
| trijntje | I asked in launchpad, it's only possible to half-ressurect one, and then mess around with urls for the rest of your life ;) | 19:19 |
| paultag | mini-dinstall 4 lyfe :) | 19:20 |
| arand | Yeah, if you go to the deleted ppa page and append /+edit to the url it appears as though you can revive it, it will remain a tad undead though. | 19:25 |
