reversibleanHow can we change the Unity Launcher .desktop file for a package?07:35
reversibleanI'm about to submit a patch to debian upstream. And what if it fixes a bug opened in launchpad, can I add 'Closes: #bugid' in the changelog?11:57
ari-tczewreversiblean: Closes: #XXXXX fixes a bug in Debian reported on BTS.11:59
teward^ that11:59
teward(i was about to say it)11:59
ari-tczewIn Ubuntu, you can use in d/changelog a phrase LP: #XXXXX which fixes a bug reported on Launchpad.12:00
ari-tczewPersonally, I use Closes: #XXXXX in d/changelog for Ubuntu as a confirmation that patch (delta) has been forwarded to Debian.12:01
Laneyyou can put LP: #foo in a Debian changelog and it will work fine to close a Launchpad bug when the package is uploaded to Ubuntu12:07
tewardLaney: of course it's up to Debian to 'accept' such a changelog entry, no?12:07
LaneyHm. That's a weird way of putting it. If it's not in the changelog then it won't do it.12:09
LaneyIf it is then it works. I think that was what reversiblean was asking.12:09
LaneyLP: #xxx for Launchpad, Closes: #yyy for the Debian BTS.12:10
reversib1eanLaney: Sorry for the late reply. So how can I actually send it to Debian since there's no bug opened there?12:18
Laneyreversib1ean: Probably open one. The maintainer should add Closes: for you when they include the fix, or else you can wait to get the bug number and then send the patch in.12:19
Laneyso ideally the upload will include both Closes: and LP:12:19
reversib1eanLaney: okay. Should I have to do anything with launchpad then? Or just let launchpad to get it from the upstream.12:23
Laneyreversib1ean: You can link the bugs once you get a bug number in Debian, then people can find it if they start in LP12:24
LaneyThat's "Also affects Distribution"12:25
reversib1eanLaney: how do we actually link btw?12:25
Laneyfollowing "Also affects distribution/package" and then giving the URL of the debian bug12:26
reversib1eanLaney: Thanks a lot12:28
Laneyno worries!12:29
reversibleanPackage guide mentions about a folder ~/pbuilder/<release>_result/. But I don't have such folder.15:59
reversibleanResult .deb files are in the /var/cache/pbuilder/.. instead16:00
reversibleanI get error when bzr push16:41
reversibleanInvalid url supplied to transport: "lp:~reversiblean/ubuntu/vivid-proposed/gnome-terminal/fix-for-1268673": No such distribution series vivid-proposed.16:41
