[04:17] <lifeless> hmm bug 520413 triaged -> confirmed, really annoys me ;(
[04:25] <wgrant> Heh
[04:34] <czajkowski> lifeless: it is a bit ironic a spammer spamming that question alright
[04:57] <lifeless> czajkowski: zigactly
[10:10] <herpmcderp> if anyone could help me with trying to find a package that was on launchpad but isn't there anymore i'd greatly appreciate it
[10:10] <herpmcderp> webcamstudio_0.61~precise1_all.deb
[10:11] <herpmcderp> its no longer in the directory where it keeps trying to link me to
[10:12] <wgrant> herpmcderp: The owner of the PPA deleted it.
[10:13] <herpmcderp> damn... i don't know why he would do that
[10:13] <herpmcderp> he has it in a .tar.bz2 on his website but i need a deb package
[10:14] <wgrant> You'll need to ask him.
[10:14] <herpmcderp> this makes me very sad...
[10:15] <czajkowski> well it's his package he can :)
[10:16] <herpmcderp> I'm still fairly inexperienced as far as some of this goes... can someone explain what I'm about to paste to me?
[10:17] <herpmcderp> - Starting with version 0.60 WebcamStudio uses dkms(8) to build the    modules automatically. The dkms package recommends the linux-headers    package needed to build modules for the current distribution kernel. If this    for whatever reason does not work or you are using a non-distribution kernel    please make sure the right set of kernel headers is installed.
[10:20] <herpmcderp> If I'm understanding correctly dkms would allow you to upgrade an application's files selectively without a full upgrade of the program entirely?
[10:21] <herpmcderp> idk if I'm understanding what dkms does correctly
[10:42] <menesis> herpmcderp: dkms builds a module for the kernel when the kernel is upgraded
[12:33] <stokachu> has anything changed with the api that woud cause an 'unsupported authentication scheme 'oauth'' when attempting to grant access to a user over oauth1.0a
[12:35] <stokachu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5732457/
[12:55] <dobey> stokachu: did your Authentication: header start with 'oauth' instead of 'OAuth' ?
[12:59] <stokachu> dobey: ah i believe it is all lowercase
[13:06] <dobey> stokachu: it must be properly capitalized i think
[13:17] <stokachu> dobey: ok thank you ill retry with it capitalized
[13:18] <stokachu> so this is my authorization header routine http://paste.ubuntu.com/5732572/
[13:19] <stokachu> it looks like it is using OAuth realm properly
[13:19] <wgrant>   _content => "Request token has not yet been reviewed. Try again later.",
[13:20] <stokachu> wgrant: yea im not sure what that particular error means
[13:20] <stokachu> and this is against staging
[13:20] <wgrant> stokachu: You haven't authorised the token in your web browser yet.
[13:20] <dobey> oh, you're doing it in perl
[13:21] <stokachu> wgrant: ah ill add a timer in there and see if that works
[13:24] <stokachu> cool it needed a timer
[13:25] <wgrant> Not a timer so much as a wait until you actually approve the token
[13:25] <stokachu> ah ok, yea im using some perl module open_browser so ill need to investigate that more
[13:26] <wgrant> stokachu: What are you trying to do? You'd usually request a new token only the first time you run the app on a new system.
[13:26] <wgrant> It's not a common part of the workflow
[13:26] <stokachu> yea i created a new vm that i wanted to authorize against an account i created
[13:27] <stokachu> a new account
[13:27] <wgrant> Normally you'd just open it in your local browser
[13:27] <wgrant> Rather than giving your SSO password to some random VM
[13:27] <stokachu> yea thats what im doing and then copying the credentials into a config file
[13:28] <wgrant> Probably not much point using anything like open_browser, then
[13:28] <wgrant> I'd just print the URL and wait for a key to be pressed
[13:29] <stokachu> wgrant: yea that does sound simpler i think ill do that instead
[13:29] <stokachu> thanks for your help

[14:00] <dobey> Vai: not related
[14:43] <aboudreault> is there any way to revert  a mass delete?
[14:43] <aboudreault> someone in the team remove accidentaly all the packages from a distro.
[14:45] <aboudreault> bah nvm. we'll live with it.
[16:06] <GrueMaster> Anyone know how to delete a recipe?  I keep getting people hijacking my Windows project and creating ppa daily builds recipes on old bzr branches.  This wastes resources, and my time in policing these.
[16:24] <thopiekar> GrueMaster: If you remove the branch hosting the packaging files it also removes the recipe or check the recipe details, there should be a possibility to remove a recipe
[16:37] <GrueMaster> I tried deleting the branch, but it wouldn't let me as it had a recipe assigned to it that I can't change/delete.
[16:38] <GrueMaster> This is one of my frustrations with Launchpad.  I am the project admin, but the only thing I can really change is who has upload rights.  Anyone can come along and post bogus merge requests or generate bogus recipes.
[17:20] <dobey> GrueMaster: why do you feel you need to police them? You can set the status of a branch to abanonded if you don't want to deal with it any more. it'll still be there for people to look at it, but it won't display by default in the code page, so less likely for people to propose to it. you're going to have that problem anywhere though, if it's not clear what branch is the one to use.
[17:32] <GrueMaster> Ah, ok.  I have set the affected ones to abandonded.  Just hope no one tries to create a recipe on the trunk.
[17:33] <dobey> is it a win-only thing?
[17:34] <dobey> maybe just add a note to the branch on LP, or in README that says "Please do not create recipe builds of this branch on LaunchPad. It is a project for use on Windows only, not Ubuntu." or something
[17:36] <GrueMaster> It is a Windows only tool.  Win32ImageWriter.
[17:37] <GrueMaster> And the people that keep making recipe's and merge requests from static branches have new accounts and no karma.
[17:37] <dobey> weird
[17:39] <GrueMaster> These are things that should be limited to people in the developers only team.  If someone makes their own branch, makes changes, and proposes a merge, that is fine.  It is actually the criteria for getting developer access to the main trunk.
[17:40] <dobey> i wonder why it's an issue with that project though
[17:42] <dobey> i mean, i have plenty of high profile projects to deal with, and don't have that problem on any of them really. main problem i have is people reporting bugs in the wrong places, asking questions on lp answers, or creating arbitrary/random blueprints on projects
[17:43] <GrueMaster> Yea, I have those issues too.
[17:43] <dobey> it would be nice if there was a flag one could enable on a project's main branches, to say "don't allow recipe builds of this branch"
[17:44] <dobey> it's probably not a common enough case to do it though
[17:45] <GrueMaster> True.  Actually, I am migrating my project to Sourceforge anyways.  Only thing I use LP for now is bug tracking (which bzr is good enough to update from my git tree on sf).
[17:45] <GrueMaster> I hope to shut down the lanuchpad project entirely in the next year.  Low priority though.
[17:46] <Vai> M4SONIC, you bring to us a nice music ^^
[17:47] <dobey> Vai: not sure why you're discussing that in here. this channel has nothing to do with Ableton. it's a channel for https://launchpad.net/
[17:48] <Vai> i know, i just noticed him!
[17:59] <GrueMaster> Gah!  Just found 3 recipes for my trunk branch (which is a clone of my git tree on SF).
[18:17] <thopiekar> what was the command to get a list of tags? tried "bzr tags lp:kivy", but something is missing
[18:19] <dobey> thopiekar: "bzr tags -d lp:foo" if it's a remote branch you want to run it on
[18:27] <thopiekar> dobey: thanks
[18:27] <thopiekar> do you know reasons why a git tag might be not imported?
[18:28] <dobey> no clue
[18:30] <thopiekar> dobey: ok, thanks
[18:30] <thopiekar> it seems that there is a tag missing :(
[18:33] <thopiekar> dobey: I get a question-mark on the needed tag :/ http://pastebin.com/a3cr9iFp
[18:33] <dobey> thopiekar: i don't know. perhaps the referenced revision for the tag couldn't be found on import
