| pabs3 | how do I claim and delete this launchpad account? I already have the pabs account. https://launchpad.net/~pabs3 | 03:33 |
|---|---|---|
| wgrant | pabs3: If you're logged in you should see a link to claim it | 03:36 |
| wgrant | Then you need to verify that you own the address | 03:36 |
| wgrant | If you don't have access to the address any more, ask at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion and we'll sort it out. | 03:36 |
| pabs3 | and to delete it? | 03:38 |
| StevenK | pabs3: Probably easier to claim it and merge it into your existing account | 03:53 |
| wgrant | Exactly | 03:54 |
| wgrant | Best way to delete it is to merge it | 03:54 |
| wgrant | Since it's the same person | 03:54 |
| wgrant | It'll switch the references across to your one true account | 03:54 |
| pabs3 | ok cool. done, thanks | 03:59 |
| george_e | Is there an API route for obtaining a list of all PPAs? | 05:20 |
| george_e | I searched through the documentation and haven't come across anything yet. | 05:20 |
| wgrant | george_e: No. Why do you want to do that? | 05:23 |
| george_e | wgrant: Because the API provides a route for obtaining all of the packages in a PPA, I thought it would be neat to write a tool that enumerated all of the PPAs and obtained the package list for each of them. | 05:24 |
| george_e | Then I could dump all of the data into a database and write a nice web front-end for searching. | 05:24 |
| wgrant | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas | 05:24 |
| wgrant | You don't want to be scraping that volume of data from Launchpad | 05:24 |
| wgrant | It is large | 05:24 |
| george_e | Oh... how many PPAs do we have? | 05:25 |
| StevenK | Over 40,000 | 05:25 |
| george_e | :O | 05:25 |
| george_e | Okay... never mind. | 05:26 |
| george_e | wgrant: But the link you provided doesn't work. | 05:26 |
| wgrant | And those are just the public ones. | 05:26 |
| george_e | OOPS-d721dc8e2fcabe296aad5190ea5a5295 | 05:26 |
| ubot5 | https://oops.canonical.com/?oopsid=OOPS-d721dc8e2fcabe296aad5190ea5a5295 | 05:26 |
| StevenK | It times out | 05:26 |
| StevenK | That page is pretty terrible | 05:26 |
| george_e | StevenK: As far as I can remember, that page has always timed out. | 05:26 |
| wgrant | It should work after a refresh | 05:26 |
| george_e | Oh now it works! Thanks! | 05:27 |
| george_e | Now I've just noticed that this tool <https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/y-ppa-manager> claims to be able to search through the "PPA database". | 05:29 |
| george_e | Interesting... | 05:30 |
| wgrant | They might scrape the data directly from the archives on ppa.launchpad.net | 05:31 |
| george_e | The relevant code seems to be here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~webupd8team/y-ppa-manager/y-ppa-manager/view/head:/list_search_ppas#L230 | 05:34 |
| wgrant | My eyes | 05:34 |
| StevenK | wget -q https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter="$SEARCH_PPA" | 05:34 |
| * StevenK reaches for a spoon | 05:34 | |
| wgrant | I am reminded of Automatix. | 05:35 |
| george_e | Lol. | 05:35 |
| StevenK | wgrant: That word is forbidden. | 05:36 |
| george_e | Interesting discovery: <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=> matches 14,958 PPAs. | 05:37 |
| wgrant | Counts that large are an approximation. | 05:38 |
| george_e | Anyway, I get the impression my idea is dead in the water. Unless Launchpad did some sort of "data dump" of the database. | 05:39 |

| bjf | i've got a odd problem. a script which uses the launchpad api suddenly started crashing on a host. this script uses "login_anonymously" and doesn't specify a cache directory. to "fix" it i specified a cache directory. where is the "default" cache directory that would normally be used? | 23:31 |
| bjf | nevermind, found it | 23:47 |
