[00:26] <kirkland> ppa builders are a bit backed up, eh?
[03:12] <joako> Is there any way to download a archive from launchpad.net site directly?
[03:58] <czajkowski> kirkland: if there is something that needs a bump just ping webops
[03:58] <czajkowski> joako: a mailing list archive?
[04:05] <joako> czajkowski, No software code is what I wish to download but bzr is not working out for me
[04:06] <joako> The system doesn´t have too much ram but it seems that it needs size of repository ram otherwise the bzr download process fails
[04:32] <shadeslayer_> joako: you could dget the package I suppose
[04:42] <wgrant> joako: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~PATH/TO/BRANCH/tarball
[04:43] <shadeslayer_> oh wow
[04:43] <shadeslayer_> I did not know about that
[05:17] <joako> it doesn´t work for me. I have this URL: https://launchpad.net/openobject-addons/+milestone/6.1 but I have an error here: https://launchpad.net/openobject-addons/+milestone/6.1/tarball
[05:20] <wgrant> joako: That first URL is not a branch, it's a milestone.
[05:20] <joako> wgrant, I am not a programmer. All I know is from this site I wish to download the code so I can use it.
[05:20] <joako> How can I determine the branch of that milestone?
[05:21] <wgrant> joako: The code branch is associated with the series. Click on the "6.1" link under the Series header, and you'll see a link to the branch on the right
[05:22] <joako> Where does series come from? This confuses me more
[05:22] <wgrant> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~openerp/openobject-addons/6.1/tarball
[05:23] <joako> wgrant, How can I determine that myself in the future?
[05:24] <wgrant> joako: On the milestone URL that you linked there is a "Series: 6.1"
[05:24] <wgrant> Click the 6.1 link
[05:24] <wgrant> And you'll see a link to the relevant branch on the series page
[05:25] <joako> What is very confusing is why on the page https://launchpad.net/openobject-addons/6.1 does it say ¨no downloads¨
[05:26] <wgrant> The project hasn't uploaded any download files
[05:26] <wgrant> Just the code branch
[05:26] <joako> wgrant, but why then can I use the  hidden download link?
[05:27] <wgrant> joako: That's a Launchpad feature that generates a tarball directly from the code branch. Normally the project owner would have uploaded a release tarball and maybe some pre-built binaries for end users to use; that's what the "no downloads" bit refers to.
[05:28] <joako> Thanks for trying to explain it. I still don´t understand. Sourceforge and svn make pefect sense.
[05:30] <wgrant> joako: The version control system is for developers, not for end users. Project owners can upload files for end-users to download and use, but the people who run openobject-addons have not done that, so you have no choice but to use the developer-oriented version control system to download them instead.
