[15:48] Apex_Strider, with? [15:48] (usually asking your question rather than asking for help gets you better results) [15:50] Sorry, I'm not exactly an Ubuntu wizz! I just have an issue with my sources.list. Can't get updates. I read that I might be able to post my list here, and someone may be able to help. [15:51] Apex_Strider, you may want #ubuntu [15:51] and when you get to #Ubuntu pastebin your sources.list [15:51] and give information about your release (which Ubuntu you're on, etc.) [15:51] Oh, okay. I'll try that. Thanks! [15:52] Apex_Strider, also pastebin the error(s) you're seeing with apt-get or whatever you use to update (sudo apt-get update | pastebinit <-- that in the terminal = awesome) [15:52] (assuming you have pastebinit, which you probably don't) [15:52] Apex_Strider, just /join #ubuntu and you'll be there :) [15:53] Not sure about the Pastebinit [15:53] I'm on 12.04 [15:53] Apex_Strider, just go to #ubuntu and ask for help :P [15:53] Will do... [15:53] since #launchpad isn't directly Ubuntu support :) [15:53] Ah, gotcha! ;-) [16:46] <\n> hi, I need help. my launchpad username is nyuszika7h - I've forgot my password and the e-mail address I registered with doesn't exist anymore. is there any way to recover my account? [16:51] A @gmail.com address doesn't exist? How come? [16:53] \n: ^ [16:54] maxb, it could've been purged. [16:54] google purges accounts after a while [16:54] and also sometimeis kills google accounts if they've received abuse reports [16:55] * TheLordOfTime has had it happen twice [16:55] both times they reversed it. [16:55] :P [16:55] Huh, google's smtp server certainly says it doesn't exist. [16:55] which supports the theory google removed the account [16:55] I guess the simplest thing to try first would be to see if you can re-register it :-) [16:56] Eeeyup. [16:56] ... [16:56] the next time my girlfriend modifies my autocomplete to change "Yep" to 'Eeeyup'... i swear... [16:57] heh :-) [16:59] <\n> maxb: I deleted the account [16:59] The gmail account? [16:59] <\n> yes [16:59] <\n> I created a new one, and I use a google apps one as my primary now [16:59] should've changed your email first. [16:59] \n, at least temporarily rereg. [16:59] and then delete the account when you're done, after you change your email in LP? [16:59] actually about that [16:59] Will google allow you to re-register the old address? If so, that's definitely the quickest way to get this sorted out. [16:59] maxb, good question [16:59] <\n> I'll try [17:00] When changing your address, you'll need to separately change it in both Launchpad and in Ubuntu SSO [17:00] <\n> Someone already has that username. Try another? [17:00] Ubuntu SSO confusingly masquerades as login.launchpad.net, but is NOT part of Launchpad [17:00] <\n> won't let me re-register [17:01] \n: OK, I think you're probably stuck needing to ask for administrator intervention then [17:01] <\n> hm [17:01] <\n> This account was deleted 19 days ago. You can attempt to restore it by selecting one of your recovery methods below. [17:02] <\n> Internal Error [17:02] <\n> If you want to try again, please start the recovery process from the beginning. [17:02] <\n> meh [17:03] \n: for SSO stuff you will need to ask for help in #canonical-isd but it's still holidays for many canonical folks till tomorrow. so you are better off filling in https://forms.canonical.com/sso-support/ [17:03] <\n> ok [17:03] You'll probably need to prove your identity somehow - signing something with the PGP key attached to the Launchpad account in question might be a good way to do it [17:03] <\n> hmm [17:04] <\n> I'm not sure did I attach the new key to it [17:04] <\n> I seem to have two keys, one for the old address [17:04] <\n> so probably [17:04] they'' work with you to resolve it, could be details of when you created the account, anything you did with the ac etc [17:06] Oh, I see that PGP key is revoked, I guess some sort of alternative method will be necessary [17:06] <\n> it's revoked? [17:06] http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?search=0x7D3C68F16E9CF4F564522564B66865933B0308D8&op=index [17:06] <\n> I thought I attached another one [17:06] I only see one PGP key mentioned on https://launchpad.net/~nyuszika7h [17:07] <\n> I have an old one in my keyring here [17:07] <\n> pub 2048R/0x5FD879696A9D469C 2011-07-29 [17:07] <\n> uid nyuszika7h [17:07] <\n> sub 2048R/0xBB0A2566C6FC64DA 2011-07-29 [17:07] <\n> I also have the revoked key, not sure if that helps [17:07] I think you'll have to file a request and see what SSO Support suggest. [17:08] Launchpad accounts can be merged, so you might like to just create a new one for now. [17:10] <\n> I'll use "icecreamsandwich" as the ID for the new account, for now :3 [21:16] Hello. I wonder how to change the "reply to" settings of a mailing list hosted on Launchpad. [21:19] exarkun: There is no facility to do so. [21:19] exarkun: if you're talking about the munge-reply-to antifeature of mailman [21:20] Can I ask a Launchpad admin to do it? [21:20] No [21:20] :( [21:20] its not that its privileged [21:20] its that there is no facility to do it at all [21:21] LP generates the settings [21:21] and sets that to the non-munging setting [21:23] exarkun: so you'd need a patch, which would need some justification [is it worth carrying the complexity [in terms of support cost, both end user and code maintenance]] [21:24] How do I quantify "worth"? [21:25] If I said "I absolutely hate the current mailing list setting", is that a justification? [21:25] (I would suppose not) [21:25] its certainly first hand data [21:25] but it doesn't tell LP devs much about what ratio of users also hate it [21:26] exarkun: Out of interest, why do you hate it ? [21:26] I don't know anything about that ratio, so I can't tell them anything about it. [21:27] I'm subscribed to the mailing list. The mailing list software can deliver messages to me. I don't need to get duplicate copies from other people who are replying to things. I can change settings about messages delivered from the mailing list (like enable digest delivery, disable delivery entirely, etc); I have no such control over messages sent directly from other posters to me.
