[08:33] <alkisg> Are there any future thoughts for supporting debian releases in PPAs? `add-apt-repository ppa:ts.sch.gr` works from e.g. wheezy, but of course then it says that it can't download the repository index...
[08:36] <hyperair> there's also talk about non-launchpad debian ppas
[08:36] <hyperair> still in planning though, iirc
[08:37] <alkisg> That's be cool :)
[08:37] <alkisg> *'d
[08:37] <hyperair> https://launchpad.net/debian/+ppas
[08:37] <hyperair> hang on, isn't this it?
[08:37] <hyperair> i mean the launchpad support for debian ppas, that is
[08:37] <hyperair> have you tried uploading to them?
[08:38] <alkisg> Not in the last year or so...
[08:39] <jose> it also looks quite empty compared to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas
[08:39] <hyperair> try copying the [ppa] section from /etc/dput.cf and making one that uplods to .../debian instead of .../ubuntu
[08:39] <wgrant> Launchpad PPAs do not support Debian.
[08:39] <hyperair> oh :(
[08:39] <wgrant> It's mostly a matter of build resources.
[08:40] <alkisg> "copy packages" from some ppa doesn't list any debian release as a target... ah, thanks wgrant
[08:41] <wgrant> Debian was working on similar functionality in dak a few months ago, but I haven't kept up to date with that this year.
[08:43] <alkisg> From what I read in the mailing lists, those seem to only target DDs...
[08:43] <alkisg> So it wouldn't be quite like launchpad PPAs, where any developer can upload
[12:51] <Saviq> can we prevent a user from assigning themselves to a bug over and over again https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bug/1292306 ?
[13:10] <dobey> Saviq: ask them not to do that?
[13:11] <Saviq> dobey, they've been asked already
[13:12] <Saviq> dobey, https://bugs.launchpad.net/music-app/+bug/1292306/comments/11
[13:12] <Saviq> didn't work
[13:31] <dobey> Saviq: it looks like mostly an issue of being over-enthusiastic on their part. https://bugs.launchpad.net/~rprosamaria383/+assignedbugs
[13:40] <dobey> Saviq: i just sent a more stern e-mail warning that if it does not stop it will be viewed as spam and the account disabled
[14:16] <Saviq> dobey, thanks
[19:42] <balor> Is it a *requirement* to sign packages to upload them to my PPA?
[19:42] <cjwatson> yes
[19:42] <balor> I ask because I build on Ubuntu, but my system with gpg keys is a Fedora box.  Dput does not exist on Fedora.
[19:43] <cjwatson> try debrsign
[19:43] <balor> cjwatson, thanks
[19:44] <czajkowski> balor: howdy!
[19:44] <balor> czajkowski, hey...did I ever tell you of my undying preference for .rpm over .deb?
[19:45] <balor> czajkowski, I'm struggling to make a release of some software.
[19:45] <czajkowski> balor: If you ask someone may be able to point you in the right direction
[19:45] <czajkowski> balor: also, long time no see!
[19:47] <balor> czajkowski, yes, I've been busy.  I've just built some .deb files and am trying to get them into PPA.  So now I just have to sign and dput them. I'd _prefer_ to be able to sign them and scp them from a Fedora box, for various reasons.
[19:48] <balor> However, I think the path of least resistance is to make a special gpg signing key and use that on my Ubuntu VMs
[19:50] <balor> czajkowski, how's the mongo world treating you
[19:53] <dobey> balor: you can't dput the binary .deb files to a PPA anyway. you can only upload the source package
[19:54] <dobey> but yes, the source must be signed
[19:55] <balor> dobey, thats dpkg-buildpackage -S I believe.  thanks.
[19:55] <dobey> with a valid, non-expired key, which matches the fingerprint specified on your lp profile
[19:55] <dobey> yes
[19:55] <balor> dobey, much obliged.
[20:01] <qengho> dobey: I left my PPA alone.  I uploaded a new version of chromium that supersedes previous version. The old version is still there, and my third upload just failed because of lack of disk space.
[20:05] <czajkowski> balor: it's good, heading to milan and rome next week for two events I'm running so kept busy
[20:06] <qengho> One architecture of the second upload did fail to build. Could that make the first upload, the version that should be superceded (and is labeled so), not be deleted?
[20:07] <balor> czajkowski, sweet.  Make time in Rome to get to see the Vatican gallery. It's worth the queue.
[20:13] <dobey> qengho: i think one superseded version is kept around, along with the current version. how big is a single package?
[20:14] <qengho> Hrm, about 1GB or so.
[20:15] <qengho> I only juggle elephants.
[20:15] <dobey> qengho: yikes. maybe you should just ask for more disk space in that PPA
[20:15] <qengho> dobey: Roger.  Thanks.
[20:32] <balor> success!  I think.
[20:35] <balor> I presume it takes time for the source deb to be built on the launchpad side before it hits my PPA?
[20:36] <cjwatson> the source package should be published shortly; binaries will take a little longer, yes
[20:37] <cjwatson> you should get a mail when the source upload is accepted if it was properly signed
[20:37] <balor> great :)
[20:38] <cjwatson> balor: looks like it was rejected though
[20:38] <cjwatson> ah, you got the PPA name wrong
[20:38] <balor> I did
[20:38] <balor> yeah
[20:38] <balor> I copied the documentation, but my ppa name is different
[20:39] <cjwatson> and you need an Ubuntu series rather than "unstable" in debian/changelog when you build the package, by the looks of it?
[20:39]  * cjwatson goes for childcare
[20:40] <balor> cjwatson, thanks
[22:44] <qengho> I deleted packages from my PPA more than an hour ago. The quota isn't updated to zero yet. https://launchpad.net/~cmiller/+archive/chromium-browser-beta-daily/+packages
[22:57] <wgrant> qengho: The package pools are only cleaned every 6 hours, so it can take 12 hours.
[22:57] <wgrant> I've doubled your quota.
[23:41] <qengho> wgrant: thank you.
