[07:35] <reversiblean> How can we change the Unity Launcher .desktop file for a package?
[11:57] <reversiblean> I'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?
[11:59] <ari-tczew> reversiblean: Closes: #XXXXX fixes a bug in Debian reported on BTS.
[11:59] <teward> ^ that
[11:59] <teward> (i was about to say it)
[12:00] <ari-tczew> In Ubuntu, you can use in d/changelog a phrase LP: #XXXXX which fixes a bug reported on Launchpad.
[12:01] <ari-tczew> Personally, I use Closes: #XXXXX in d/changelog for Ubuntu as a confirmation that patch (delta) has been forwarded to Debian.
[12:07] <Laney> you can put LP: #foo in a Debian changelog and it will work fine to close a Launchpad bug when the package is uploaded to Ubuntu
[12:07] <teward> Laney: of course it's up to Debian to 'accept' such a changelog entry, no?
[12:09] <Laney> Hm. That's a weird way of putting it. If it's not in the changelog then it won't do it.
[12:09] <Laney> If it is then it works. I think that was what reversiblean was asking.
[12:10] <Laney> LP: #xxx for Launchpad, Closes: #yyy for the Debian BTS.
[12:18] <reversib1ean> Laney: Sorry for the late reply. So how can I actually send it to Debian since there's no bug opened there?
[12:19] <Laney> reversib1ean: 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] <Laney> so ideally the upload will include both Closes: and LP:
[12:23] <reversib1ean> Laney: okay. Should I have to do anything with launchpad then? Or just let launchpad to get it from the upstream.
[12:24] <Laney> reversib1ean: You can link the bugs once you get a bug number in Debian, then people can find it if they start in LP
[12:25] <Laney> That's "Also affects Distribution"
[12:25] <reversib1ean> Laney: how do we actually link btw?
[12:26] <Laney> following "Also affects distribution/package" and then giving the URL of the debian bug
[12:28] <reversib1ean> Laney: Thanks a lot
[12:29] <Laney> no worries!
[15:59] <reversiblean> Package guide mentions about a folder ~/pbuilder/<release>_result/. But I don't have such folder.
[16:00] <reversiblean> Result .deb files are in the /var/cache/pbuilder/.. instead
[16:41] <reversiblean> I get error when bzr push
[16:41] <reversiblean> Invalid url supplied to transport: "lp:~reversiblean/ubuntu/vivid-proposed/gnome-terminal/fix-for-1268673": No such distribution series vivid-proposed.
