harishnavnitwhat is the proper way of running the utilities/link-external-sourcecode ?20:27
harishnavnitI get an error stating that "Parent branch not specified and could not be discovered " , when i try running the utilities/link-external-soureceode20:28
cjwatsonharishnavnit: link-external-sourcecode is for when you've made a branch of a properly-set-up devel checkout, which doesn't sound like your case.21:02
cjwatsonharishnavnit: It doesn't sound like you used rocketfuel-setup (which you should run inside a container, see https://dev.launchpad.net/Running/LXC21:03
cjwatson)21:03
cjwatsonGiven that you've got the branch already, you should be able to run utilities/rocketfuel-setup (INSIDE A CONTAINER as it will do interesting things to your system)21:04
cjwatsonIf you've run that already and it just went wrong somehow, do this instead:21:05
cjwatsonbzr branch lp:~launchpad/lp-source-dependencies/trunk/ download-cache21:05
cjwatsonutilities/update-sourcecode21:05
harishnavniti'm prompted to run /utilities/link-external-sourcecode when i run make schema21:05
cjwatson... actually ignore that, just use rocketfuel-setup :)21:05
cjwatsonYes I know you are but that's assuming that you have a properly set up parent branch, which you don't21:06
cjwatsonDid you just fetch the code with bzr branch lp:launchpad or similar?21:06
harishnavnityes , i used bzr21:06
harishnavnithow do u set up the parent branch ?21:06
cjwatsonRight, so set up a container and run utilities/rocketfuel-setup inside it.21:06
cjwatsonThen when you make YOUR OWN BRANCHES from this branch you'll be able to use link-external-sourcecode in those.21:07
cjwatsonBut that doesn't apply to the first one.21:07
harishnavnituhm , what do u mean by set up a container ?21:07
cjwatsonI gave you a link above.21:07
cjwatsonhttps://dev.launchpad.net/Running/LXC21:07
harishnavnitthanks , will go through it21:08
cjwatsonYou'll need to do that anyway otherwise things like running tests will be a pain later.21:09
cjwatsonSo you might as well do it now.21:09
harishnavnityeah21:10
harishnavnitwell i;m currently running updates , so sudo apt-get install lxc wont work right now21:12
harishnavnitunable to unlock the administration directory21:12
cjwatsonSure, just wait until you're finished with that.21:12
harishnavnitit's a long wait :(21:13
