[04:55] <sergio-br2> what, gettext is a dep in the package, why it's not finding...
[04:56] <sergio-br2> it got this error only for armhf vivid build
[04:56] <sergio-br2> trusty is fine

[17:06] <mpt> Hmmm, that’s perhaps not the best description for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[17:21] <mapreri> mpt: that's what in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu ...
[17:22] <mapreri> mpt: the persons listed on https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-drivers/+members can change it, fwiw
[17:22] <mpt> mapreri, yes, but (a) it’s out of context without the preceding summary and (b) not relevant to a bug listing anyway
[17:22] <mpt> The drivers could fix (a) but not (b) :-)

[21:41] <sidi> im having trouble understanding how to upload the same package for multiple distros on my PPA. I currently have a custom gedit package for vivid, and make an exactly identical package for trusty, except that I replaced "vivid" with "trusty" in the debian/changelog (ubuntu has the same versions anyway). Launchpad rejects the upload because I already have a package with that version number, but "different contents", except the only difference is the target
[21:41] <sidi>  distribution. What am I doing wrong? should i just change my version number regardless?
[21:44] <sidi> in other words, does the rule of always bumping version number apply even across distros?
[21:48] <teward> sidi: you can't have the same version of the source package for one distro in the PPA
[21:48] <teward> not if you have to build against each
[21:48] <teward> you will need to upload separate versions with slightly different version strings to do that
[21:49] <teward> to differentiate them all from each other.  (so, ~ubuntu14.04.0, etc. could be appended in there somewhere for a 14.04 package, etc.
[21:49] <teward> teward: if you are 100% certain the package will work without a rebuild on other releases you can use the copy packages feature...
[21:49] <teward> ... and copy the built binaries to other releases
[21:49] <sidi> teward, alright, that works for me, i was just not aware of the rule.
[21:49] <teward> but ONLY if you're certain it won't torpedo you
[21:49] <teward> sidi: it's less a rule...
[21:50] <teward> ... and more a limitation of the repository system
[21:50] <teward> (at its core, rather than Ubuntu/LP specific)
[21:50] <sidi> teward, my brain can't cope with new features so i'll go the long-but-easy way and just add a dummy entry to my debian/changelog.
[21:50] <sidi> teward, oh i see.
[21:50] <sidi> anyway thanks for confirming :-)
[21:58] <teward> you're welcome, i had the same problem with other PPAs I run
[21:58] <teward> now i don't :)
