[08:49] <smartboyhw> Finding some bugs to play with (fixing) ca n I do Bug 1137716?
[08:49] <_mup_> Bug #1137716: Code page suggests using invalid bzr flag --use-existing <bzr> <lp-code> <trivial> <ui> <Launchpad itself:Triaged> < https://launchpad.net/bugs/1137716 >
[11:42] <cjwatson> smartboyhw: Generally I think you can just go ahead, at least for simple things like that that don't involve major reengineering
[11:42] <smartboyhw> cjwatson, :)
[11:43] <smartboyhw> cjwatson, done and merge proposal proposed.
[11:44] <smartboyhw> How come the merge proposal went timeout!?!!?!??!
[11:49] <cjwatson> I don't know.  Do you have an OOPS id?
[11:49] <czajkowski> smartboyhw: whats the oops id ?
[11:49] <czajkowski> \o/
[11:49] <smartboyhw> czajkowski, cjwatson anyway I think it works now:P
[11:50] <cjwatson> LP's own code tends to hit pathological cases in the code component, unfortunately
[11:50] <cjwatson> (Lots of revisions, lots of merges)
[11:50] <smartboyhw> .....
[11:50] <StevenK> smartboyhw: I'd prefer a lot less brevity in the MP description.
[11:50] <smartboyhw> StevenK, brevity = ?
[11:50] <cjwatson> After pushing an LP branch it's often necessary to delete it after a while and push again
[11:51] <cjwatson> (But not in this case - I mean if it fails to scan the branch)
[11:51] <cjwatson> smartboyhw: Please follow https://dev.launchpad.net/PatchSubmission
[11:51] <cjwatson> brevity = shortness
[11:51] <smartboyhw> cjwatson, OK sorry
[11:53] <smartboyhw> Is this Lint thing strange?
[11:53] <smartboyhw> Missing ./download-cache.
[11:53] <smartboyhw> Developers: please run utilities/link-external-sourcecode.
[11:53] <smartboyhw> make: *** [download-cache] Error 1

[11:55] <cjwatson> You need to run it in the branch you're changing
[11:55] <cjwatson> And it will help if your branches are in the conventional layout
[11:56] <cjwatson> You ought to have a clean devel branch locally, and do your work in a separate local branch of that
[11:56] <cjwatson> Rather than e.g. just branching lp:launchpad directly and then pushing the result back
