| ki7mt | Hello all, quick question, I've PPA that seems stuck in - Pending Publication, but only for amd64, i386 seems ok. Both built successfully, any Ideas how to resolve this? | 05:12 |
|---|---|---|
| ki7mt | Belay my last, whatever it was, seems to have fixed itself, maybe the sever was just busy. | 05:20 |
| prest1ge | is someone here who wants to teach me how launchpad works? | 07:41 |
| wgrant | prest1ge: Launchpad does a great many different things. What in particular do you want to know about? | 07:45 |
| prest1ge | ok well. first i want to know why my account is called -deactivatedaccount? | 07:45 |
| prest1ge | wgrant: i registered a long time ago maybe that why? so how to activate them? | 07:46 |
| wgrant | prest1ge: You at some point in the past asked Launchpad to deactivate your account, but if you're logged in now you've clearly reactivated it. When an account is deactivated, Launchpad appends '-deactivatedaccount' to its name to free up the username for other users. When you reactive your account, you can rename it at https://launchpad.net/~/+edit to remove that suffix. | 07:49 |
| prest1ge | wgrant: i already tried to rename them there but if i want to save it, i get an error | 07:50 |
| wgrant | An error? | 07:50 |
| prest1ge | it tells me 'changing name will change public openid bla bla | 07:51 |
| wgrant | And then tells you to click save again to confirm. | 07:51 |
| prest1ge | yes...should i do? | 07:52 |
| prest1ge | so ignore the error? | 07:52 |
| wgrant | Ignore the warning, since you presumably don't use https://launchpad.net/~whatever-deactivatedaccount to log into any third-party websites. | 07:52 |
| prest1ge | wgrant: ok, so it looks like normal now. and now the big question. how to upload or create a new projekt? | 07:53 |
| prest1ge | i want to upload my applications | 07:53 |
| wgrant | prest1ge: What sort of application, and upload to where? Do you want to use Launchpad to develop your applications? | 07:54 |
| prest1ge | wgrant: mmm... i think so? :P i wanted to upload and share my c++ / Qt applications and create a ppa | 07:55 |
| wgrant | prest1ge: https://help.launchpad.net/Projects/Registering describes how to create a project, https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA goes through PPAs. | 07:57 |
| wgrant | PPAs are associated directly with your account, rather than with a project, but you usually want a project first so you can share your source code, track bugs, etc. | 07:57 |
| prest1ge | wgrant: ok, well. and what to do if a projekt-name is already registered? | 08:01 |
| wgrant | prest1ge: Which project? | 08:01 |
| prest1ge | wgrant: analogclock | 08:02 |
| wgrant | prest1ge: https://launchpad.net/analogclock is not your project, but has the same name as yours? | 08:02 |
| wgrant | If so, you'll need to pick another name for the Launchpad project, and I'd suggest renaming the project entirely to avoid confusion. | 08:02 |
| xnox | an in-line review comment got eaten on my merge proposal. | 10:01 |
| xnox | (there is no longer any traces of it) | 10:01 |
| xnox | where/how should I report it? | 10:02 |
