| DalekSec | Howdy. Sorry to bother, but is the changelog parser to close bugs not working or been changed? | 17:14 |
|---|---|---|
| cjwatson | DalekSec: Not aware of any changes. The parser component is actually on the uploader's side (in dpkg-genchanges), technically speaking. Do you have an example of something not working that you expected to work? | 17:25 |
| DalekSec | I see, thanks. | 17:28 |
| DalekSec | cjwatson: Just noticed that the skype-bin upload was closed manually, and bug 1000416 wasn't closed as well. | 17:32 |
| ubot5 | bug 1000416 in Ubuntu "[needs-packaging] Thunar Dropbox" [Wishlist,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1000416 | 17:32 |
| cjwatson | DalekSec: 1000416 is explained by the fact that you can only close bugs on the matching package in Ubuntu, not bugs that are just filed against "Ubuntu". | 17:40 |
| cjwatson | DalekSec: Of course the package doesn't necessarily exist in Launchpad until it's uploaded, so most needs-packaging bugs don't get closed this way. (It's possible to work around this by first uploading to a PPA. Most people either don't know about this or don't bother.) | 17:41 |
| DalekSec | Interesting, didn't know that. | 17:43 |
| cjwatson | DalekSec: My guess in the skype case is that it's because it was initially uploaded to precise, and there wasn't a precise task on the bug. The changelog parser on the client side worked fine - you can see the Launchpad-Bugs-Fixed field in http://launchpadlibrarian.net/181344197/skype_4.3.0.37-0ubuntu0.12.04.1_source.changes | 17:43 |
| cjwatson | Not sure why the copy forward didn't close it, though. Maybe partner is weird, or maybe I'm misremembering how copies work in this situation. | 17:44 |
| DalekSec | Wasn't sure if the one was a strange partner edge case or not. Well sorry for the trouble, and thanks for the information. | 17:45 |
| cjwatson | Oh, it's a strange partner edge case. | 17:45 |
| cjwatson | if (target.pocket in banned_pockets or | 17:45 |
| cjwatson | target.archive.purpose != ArchivePurpose.PRIMARY): | 17:45 |
| cjwatson | return False | 17:45 |
| cjwatson | Possibly that should be target.archive.is_main so that it allows partner too. File a bug? | 17:46 |
| cjwatson | No real reason partner uploads shouldn't be allowed to close bugs. | 17:47 |
| cjwatson | Partner is horrible, but if it has to exist then it might as well be a little less annoying. :-) | 17:47 |
| DalekSec | Hah. :P | 17:55 |
| DalekSec | I'd have another question about a package in partner, but I'll save that for the proper channel. | 17:58 |
