NikThHow much time is needed for the change of the preferred contact address to take effect ?00:21
wgrantNikTh: I'm not sure. @ubuntu.com email aliases aren't managed by Launchpad; they're maintained by a Canonical IS script that just looks at Launchpad users and their preferred addresses. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuEmail is the documentation.00:36
NikThwgrant: Thanks for the answer. What is matters most ? The preferred address in login.ubuntu.com or the preferred contact address in launchpad ? I guess the latest, but I need a second opinion.00:38
wgrantNikTh: The latter.00:38
NikThwgrant: Is it necessary to open a question in "launchpad.answers" for the delay or I must wait for 24 hours at least ? What is your opinion ? Right now I have a delay of 4 hours almost.00:41
NikThI have changed the preferred contact address, but some messages still coming in old address. Especially messages from mailing lists where I'm a subscriber with the @ubuntu.com alias.00:43
benonsoftwareI just want to quickly add that I've been waiting a few days for my alias to change too. :)00:44
NikThbenonsoftware: Thank you for the info.00:44
NikThSo, the most appropriate will be to wait 24 up to 48 hours before I open a question for "Launchpad itself".00:45
wgrantNikTh: Hm, did some document say to open a question?00:46
wgrantAgain, this isn't Launchpad functionality.00:46
wgrantIt's a script managed by Canonical's IS team that happens to scrape data from Launchpad.00:47
wgrantThe wiki page I linked suggests to email rt@ubuntu.com.00:47
wgrantThe Launchpad team can't assist with this.00:47
NikThwgrant: The wiki page you linked , I didn't read it ,yet. Sorry. I'm going for reading, right now. Thanks.00:49
wgrantNikTh: Oh, you've only waited four hours so far?00:50
wgrantAFAIK the script only runs daily at the very most.00:50
wgrantBut some changes can take much longer to happen automatically.00:50
wgrantFour hours is nothing :)00:50
NikThwgrant: Thanks for the help.00:52

shadeslayer_hi, could someone explain https://code.launchpad.net/~netrunner-os/+archive/build-patch/+recipebuild/58578020:16
shadeslayer_the version in the PPA doesn't have an epoch20:16
shadeslayer_but the one that it's trying to upload should have one20:16
maxbshadeslayer_: epochs are kind of weird - they count when it comes to evaluating version numbers, but don't show up in filenames everywhere you might expect them to21:31
shadeslayer_yeah21:31
shadeslayer_which is just weird21:31
shadeslayer_I bumped it to 0ubuntu1.121:31
shadeslayer_since I needed the epoch21:31
maxbI think it's likely an intentional decision in order to work better with un-epoched .orig.tar.gz files21:31
maxbThough clearly that looks a little on the pointless side when dealing with a native-format package21:32
=== nesthib is now known as Guest46214
=== Guest46214 is now known as nesthib
maxbI think the general design idea is that versions should be unique even when ignoring the epoch, and the epoch is only there to force ordering comparisons to behave differently21:35
shadeslayer_Got it :)21:52
lifelessthe epoch is there to fix mistakes, thats all21:55
