[00:28] <mark06> how to update a po file for fixing some translation?
[00:30] <mark06> I seem to not have upload rights to this queue: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/pidgin/+imports
[00:33] <wgrant> mark06: You don't upload from the queue page, but the translation page.
[00:33] <wgrant> eg. https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/pidgin/+pots/pidgin/en_AU/+upload
[00:33] <wgrant> Replacing the language code, obviously.
[00:35] <mark06> wgrant: "Not allowed" :(
[00:35] <wgrant> mark06: Are you in the appropriate translation team?
[00:36] <mark06> wgrant: it seems I'm not and it should take an arbitrary amount of time for achieving it
[00:36] <wgrant> mark06: Oh?
[00:36] <mark06> but I wanted to upload it now
[00:37] <wgrant> Ubuntu doesn't just let random people overwrite their translations
[00:37] <wgrant> You need to be a member of the relevant team.
[00:38] <mark06> the queue above has items "needing review" so I thought it wouldn't simply overwrite it
[00:38] <mark06> let me explain the actual problem
[00:39] <mark06> pidgin's pt_BR translation sucks in upstream, and sucks less in Launchpad. I have done a work on this as follows:
[00:42] <mark06> 1) took original and LP po 2) fixed *wrong*  LP translations 4) improved LP translations 5) IIRC, likely fixed and improved stuff in original po which had not been done in LP
[00:43] <mark06> I used source code and the UI itself as context so I'm quite confident of my work
[00:44] <mark06> but I'm not confident of whether the original upstream ticket with the best translation will be implemented or not, because it's been a long time
[00:44] <mark06> so I though of pushing it to LP instead, so we have at least one OS with decent translation
[00:45] <wgrant> mark06: Indeed, that is a good idea
[00:45] <mark06> current translation contain *severe* errors in both upstream and LP
[00:45] <wgrant> mark06: https://launchpad.net/~lp-l10n-pt-br is the relevant Ubuntu translation team
[00:45] <wgrant> They can upload it for you, or you can ask to join (I'm not sure what their membership policy is)
[00:46] <wgrant> Bah
[00:46] <wgrant> Wrong team
[00:46] <wgrant> https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-pt-br
[00:46] <wgrant> That's the one
[00:47] <mark06> it could take weeks or months depending on their activity and such
[00:48] <mark06> I was inclined to open a bug
[00:58] <mark06> pidgin devs are too narrow minded
[01:33]  * mark06 shrugs it off
[05:55] <nailora> does someone know how to configure launchpad translations to pick up two *.po files? we are trying with simple-scan and failing: https://bugs.launchpad.net/simple-scan/+bug/543282
[10:01] <shadeslayer> wibble
[10:01] <shadeslayer> I get a Database offline error
[10:02] <shadeslayer> Trying to visit https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/digikam
[10:02] <czajkowski> shadeslayer: yes we do a daily downtime at this hour
[10:02] <czajkowski> for a few seconds
[10:02] <shadeslayer> ah
[10:02] <shadeslayer> ok
[10:02] <czajkowski> it's over now
[10:02] <shadeslayer> yeah, working now
[10:02] <wgrant> It was in fact back about 15 seconds before you mentioned it here :)
[10:02] <shadeslayer> czajkowski: is this a part of the faster update cycle ?
[10:02] <shadeslayer> wgrant: nah, I was still getting 503 errors
[10:03] <wgrant> shadeslayer: Right, we can now apply a DB patch every day in ~70s of downtime if we need, rather than batching them up and doing them all in one huge 90 minute monthly downtime.
[10:03] <shadeslayer> right
[10:03] <wgrant> Unblocks development, and hopefully infuriates users a little less.
[10:03] <czajkowski> I would add it to the topic as it hits someone most days
[10:03]  * shadeslayer notes time
[10:03] <czajkowski> but our topic is rather long
[10:03] <czajkowski> shadeslayer: 10am UTC
[10:04] <shadeslayer> okie
[10:04] <shadeslayer> thanks :)
[12:11] <mgz> how should searching for multiple tags with searchTask in launchpadlib work exactly?
[12:12] <mgz> including a space complains:
[12:12] <mgz> tags: [ConstraintNotSatisfied(u'qa-ok hardening')]
[12:13] <mgz> but passing a tuple doesn't seem to do the right thing either
[12:13] <mgz> it might be ORing rather than ANDing
[13:06] <jml> mgz: comma
[13:06] <jml> mgz: or, wait, I think a list works, and that there's an any/all switch
[13:23] <genjix> hi
[13:23] <genjix> how can i make my mailing list so anyone can join?
[13:23] <genjix> https://launchpad.net/~electrum-dev
[13:27] <genjix> i just want a normal mailing list for my software project...
[14:16] <czajkowski> genjix: thats how the ml works on lp you need to join
[14:18] <genjix> ok thanks czajkowski
[19:57] <sqrt7744> Hey, can someone have a gander at my build-log, this is failing and it don't really understand why...  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/110267413/buildlog_ubuntu-precise-i386.zams_1.1-1ubuntu0_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz
[20:08] <maxb> sqrt7744: Is that build actually compiling anything? Or is it doing something peculiar like shipping compiled binaries in the source package?
[20:09] <sqrt7744> no it should compile
[20:09] <sqrt7744> it actually works for the 64bit build, but the 32bit build fails
[20:10] <sqrt7744> which is really odd if you ask me...
[20:10] <maxb> The error messages imply it has build/got 64bit binaries in the 32bit build!
[20:11] <sqrt7744> hmm...  i didn't notice that.
[20:11] <sqrt7744> ah ok, the ELF format thing...
[20:12] <sqrt7744> i'll purge the source of any bits of binary hanging around and try again, thanks, at least that is a place to look
[20:13] <maxb> sqrt7744: There appear to be precompiled binaries in the source tarball
[20:13] <maxb> You should repack it without that mess :-/
[23:12] <mark06> I have a problem
[23:14] <mark06> I need to join a translation team to submit a po patch but someone from there pushed me to upstream, which refuses to answer whether they'll get the patch or not, so I'm suck, what to do?
