[07:08] <Doctor_N_> How do I force launchpad to delete binaries from a ppa?
[07:09] <wgrant> Doctor_N_: Delete the source and the binaries will go with it.
[07:13] <Doctor_N_> wgrant: that's the problem, it didn't
[07:14] <Doctor_N_> Now I'm trying to copy the same source package into the ppa again, and it refuses to sync saying that the binaries are already there
[07:14] <wgrant> Doctor_N_: You may need to do it a second time if you initially deleted the source before the builds had finished publishing.
[07:14] <wgrant> Doctor_N_: Ah, you can't do that.
[07:14] <wgrant> You can remove them from the archive on disk, but their existence is remembered forever
[07:14] <Doctor_N_> ok
[07:14] <Doctor_N_> that seems really obnoxious and shitty
[07:14] <wgrant> If I have a filename 'foo_1.0_amd64.deb' in a PPA, that PPA will never permit a file with different contents but the same name.
[07:15] <wgrant> Because that would be mighty confusing to people and apt.
[07:15] <wgrant> If it's a different version it needs to have a different version string.
[07:17] <Doctor_N_> I'm just gonna copy the packages into a new ppa, delete the original and recreate it.
[07:17] <Doctor_N_> then copy them back.
[07:17] <wgrant> Or you could just change the version number.
[07:17] <wgrant> Given that the package is a different version.
[07:17] <Doctor_N_> too much effort
[07:18] <wgrant> It's easier to wait out a PPA deletion than dch -i and dput?
[09:50] <czajkowski> cjwatson: is this normal to see on an autoremove http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6964585/
[10:34] <cjwatson> czajkowski: currently yes
[10:35] <cjwatson> (it's a known bug but will take me a while to sort out, and generally isn't a big deal)
[10:45] <czajkowski> cjwatson: grand job
[10:45] <czajkowski> thanks Colin
[11:07] <Doctor_N_> wgrant: yes, as it turns out
[12:22] <Doctor_N_> LOVE
[15:13] <Doctor_Nick> apw: the wrong kernel version is in 3.14rc3 on the kernel ppa, can you please fix this?
[15:13] <Doctor_Nick> http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.14-rc3-trusty/
[15:17] <sgo11> hi, not sure if I can ask the question here. I am using ubuntu. if I found more than one PPA which has the package that I want to install in launchpad, which one should I choose? Are there something in launchpad like the "Star" in github? thanks.
[15:18] <Doctor_Nick> uhm
[15:18] <Doctor_Nick> compare the version numbers...?
[15:23] <Doctor_Nick> sgo11: I'm not sure what you're asking. If the versions are the same and they're both published for the ubuntu version you use, there shouldn't be a difference
[15:23] <Doctor_Nick> unless one of them did something weird with the debian files
[15:24] <apw> Doctor_Nick, hmmm will have a look, though #ubuntu-kernel makes more sense for this
[15:25] <Doctor_Nick> ohhh
[15:25] <Doctor_Nick> I was wondering what the irc channel was
[15:25] <sgo11> Doctor_N_, thanks for your reply. just saw your message. they are the same version and ubuntu version. I don't know the detail of building a ubuntu/debian package. will they be the same? if they are the same, md5sum should give the same results, I will check md5sum for them.
[15:26] <Doctor_Nick> they should be, but even if they're not, i doubt that there's any difference
[15:26] <Doctor_Nick> md5 sums, I mean
[15:27] <sgo11> Doctor_Nick, ok. thanks. I was just wondering if one will be better/more stable than another by any chances.
[15:27] <Doctor_Nick> post the links for them
[15:29] <sgo11> Doctor_N_, posted here? https://launchpad.net/~rwky/+archive/redis https://launchpad.net/~chris-lea/+archive/redis-server
[15:32] <cjwatson> There is no guarantee that two identically-versioned packages in different archives will be the same.
[15:33] <cjwatson> You have to make your own judgement about quality based on whether you recognise the people involved, what the changelogs say, etc.
[15:33] <cjwatson> It's of course possible that one will be a copy of the other, in which case (ideally) the publication history should indicate that, or you can indeed look at checksums.
[15:34] <sgo11> cjwatson, ok. thanks. I wish lauchpad can have a "Star" like the one in github. so I can simply use the most starred one. :)
[15:46] <sgo11> I gotta go. Thank both of you very much. bye.
[15:47] <dobey> eh, "most starred" is not necessarily a good indicator either
[15:48] <sgo11> dobey, thanks for your opinion. but I like "most starred". it's easier for me to choose between projects.
[15:49] <sgo11> if one has one star, another one has thousands of stars. I will choose the latter one. :)
[15:51] <dobey> that's unofrtunate. but whatever.
[15:51] <Doctor_Nick> what if they only starred it to lure others
[15:51] <Doctor_Nick> what then sgo11
[15:51] <Doctor_Nick> WHAT THEN
[15:53] <sgo11> Doctor_Nick, :) "star" functionality is better than nothing. thanks for your help. I gotta sleep. thanks and bye. ^_^
[15:53] <Doctor_Nick> welp
[16:04] <Doctor_Nick> is there a cli tool to spit out the most recent version from a debian changes log?
[16:07] <cjwatson> "dpkg-parsechangelog -n1" will do it although it outputs in .changes format rather than changelog format
[16:09] <Doctor_Nick> that's fine
[16:09] <Doctor_Nick> i just need the version number
[16:10] <cjwatson> "dpkg-parsechangelog -SVersion" then
[16:11] <cjwatson> well, in trusty, otherwise you have to pick it out using awk or whatever
[16:12] <Doctor_Nick> aww
[20:57] <shnatsel> Hello!
[20:57] <shnatsel> I get "503: No server is available to handle this request." from LP's Loggerhead quite often today.
[20:58] <shnatsel> It's on a 503 streak again right now. Is that a known issue / planned downtime / whatever?
[20:59] <shnatsel> e.g. this page shows 503: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~elementary-os/granite/deb-packaging/revision/59
[20:59] <shnatsel> oh, it's just fixed itself again :)
