[13:34] <croxio5> Hi guys, random question, is it possible to either merge or delete a Launchpad account?
[16:09] <gdazilla> hi
[16:10] <gdazilla> what to do to get a package out of my ppa that I had build by accident?
[16:10] <gdazilla> I deleted already more than 24 hours ago, but it is still in the archive
[17:43] <gdazilla> nobody here that can help me? I can't believe that all this people are only leechers
[19:30] <audifahrer> hi
[19:30] <audifahrer> I've some problem with my receipe build: https://code.launchpad.net/~tux-style/+recipe/oicf-daily / https://launchpadlibrarian.net/117077001/buildlog.txt.gz
[19:31] <audifahrer> I think it's related to libdbus-c++
[19:33] <DNS> audifahrer: it seems the cdbs package is missing in Build-Depends
[19:34] <audifahrer> Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7), autotools-dev, cdbs, pkg-config, libtool, libdbus-c++
[19:34] <DNS> but i see it is so hm
[19:34] <audifahrer> I copied debian files and receipe from another build that is working.
[19:36] <gdazilla> i don't believe that the Build-Dependency is right, it should be libdbus-c++-dev
[19:36] <DNS> and maybe you need to add automake, autoconf to Build-Depends too
[19:36] <audifahrer> oh yes!!
[19:37] <gdazilla> and there ist no libdbus-c++ package, only a libdbus-c++-1-0
[19:37] <gdazilla> you can easy see this with apt-cache search libdbus
[19:40] <audifahrer> you're right with both. I corrected it. thanks
[19:40] <gdazilla> who? with what?
[19:43] <DNS> gdazilla: you
[19:43] <DNS> lol
[19:43] <gdazilla> he could have ment you too
[19:43] <gdazilla> and I was curious
[19:44] <gdazilla> DNS: please tell me what I have to do to get help too?
[19:44] <gdazilla> spell some magic words?
[19:45] <gdazilla> what about: "please"
[19:45] <gdazilla> can you help me with my Problem?
[19:46] <DNS> gdazilla: try 'sesame open' now?... jk... sorry i didnt see your question, i was afk and my bnc dont logs channel msgs as usual if im off
[19:46] <gdazilla> second
[19:46] <gdazilla> what to do to get a package out of my ppa that I had build by accident?
[19:46] <gdazilla> I deleted already more than 24 hours ago, but it is still in the archive
[19:47] <gdazilla> +it
[19:47] <DNS> this can take some time, sometime
[19:47] <gdazilla> it is annoying
[19:47] <gdazilla> my users damage their installation because of this
[19:47] <gdazilla> they don't read the warnings I wrote in the portal
[19:48] <gdazilla> and I have very stupid users :(
[19:48] <DNS> i know this and it hurts most it is an package used by debian/ubuntu system on default
[19:48] <DNS> +if its
[19:48] <gdazilla> it is an nvidia driver
[19:48] <DNS> eek
[19:48] <DNS> :x
[19:49] <gdazilla> this is generally no problem to be more new than ubuntu
[19:49] <gdazilla> but i have an incompability with nvidia >290
[19:50] <gdazilla> the way the monitor detection works has changed
[19:52] <gdazilla> this is not the first time the long delay for deletion hurts
[19:52] <gdazilla> why is this like this?
[19:53] <gdazilla> do you know of a person who could do this by hand?
[19:55] <DNS> sorry idk
[19:55] <gdazilla> k
[19:56] <gdazilla> thx anyway
[20:00] <lifeless> gdazilla: deletion where?
[20:03] <gdazilla> you mean which ppa?
[20:03] <gdazilla> ppa:yavdr/main
[20:04] <lifeless> what package did you delete?
[20:04] <gdazilla> nvidia-graphics-driver 304.43
[20:06] <DNS> hm im wondering atm about the license with such as package
[20:07] <gdazilla> ubuntu hosts it
[20:07] <gdazilla> so it should be okay for us too
[20:07] <DNS> i mean doenst the lp policy say only free licenses?
[20:07] <gdazilla> anyway, i want to delete it
[20:07] <DNS> hehe
[20:10] <lifeless> DNS: freely redistributable
[20:11] <lifeless> DNS: for regular PPAs
[20:11] <DNS> lifeless: is this somehwere exactly defined?
[20:12] <lifeless> gdazilla: you've tried to downgrade the version, not delete
[20:12] <lifeless> gdazilla: downgrading doesn't work.
[20:13] <gdazilla> yes i tried, because I thought it has gone already
[20:13] <lifeless> gdazilla: I would have expected you to have an error earlier in th eprocess; there will be some folk intimately familiar with the internals along in a couple hours, I'll point them at this and see what they think.
[20:13] <gdazilla> and yes downgrading works if you wait long enough
[20:14] <gdazilla> you can see that there is only an error during upload of the downgrade
[20:14] <gdazilla> normally you will get an error message much earlier if you try to downgrade
[20:15] <lifeless> DNS: https://help.launchpad.net/PPATermsofUse
[20:15] <lifeless> DNS: 'freely redistributable by Canonical, and released under a license permitting redistribution free of charge'
[20:16] <gdazilla> it would be nice if you would contact this person for me, because it is already late here
[20:18] <lifeless> They are asleep at the moment.
[20:18] <gdazilla> and me soon :D
[20:18] <lifeless> Figuring out how LP behaves when you bypass the basic primitives of dpkg is not something I am going to wake them up for.
[20:18] <gdazilla> of course nit
[20:19] <gdazilla> not
[20:19] <lifeless> but, I have pinged them, and when they are awake, they will look, I'm sure.
[20:20] <gdazilla> maybe it was the problem that I deleted it in just this moment when the build was finished, and it was waiting for publishing
[20:31] <gdazilla> n8
