| aquarius | So. Translations. Having now put a thing up for translation in Launchpad for the first time (watch as I embrace the idea that some people don't speak English! this is a big step!), I have a couple of questions. | 08:04 |
|---|---|---|
| aquarius | First: someone's very helpfully proposed some German translations. But they all need review, it seems. | 08:04 |
| aquarius | How's this meant to work? I mean... I have no idea whether they're correct or not; I don't speak good enough German to know. Is the "review" stage so that I can confirm that someone hasn't proposed a "translation" with all the words set to "Viagra"? | 08:05 |
| wgrant | aquarius: https://help.launchpad.net/Translations/YourProject/PermissionPolicies | 08:28 |
| aquarius | wgrant, yup; I read that and set the policy to "open" | 08:29 |
| wgrant | aquarius: Hm, a new translation shouldn't have required review then, unless the translator specifically said it did. | 08:29 |
| aquarius | ah, the translator may have explicitly ticked the "this translation requires review" box for each of them? | 08:30 |
| wgrant | That seems mostly likely. | 08:30 |
| aquarius | OK; I thought it was something I'd done wrong. Cheers; I'll go through and accept them, then. | 08:31 |
| wgrant | It's possible something is misconfigured, but I can't think what would cause that. | 08:31 |
| aquarius | OK. I can also have LP export my translations to a branch. Can I have that "destination" branch be trunk? So the translated .po files are automatically put in the trunk? | 08:33 |
| aquarius | or does it need to be a different branch and then I have to regularly merge from that different branch into trunk to get updated translations? | 08:34 |
| wgrant | Exporting directly to trunk shouldn't be a problem nowadays. | 08:35 |
| aquarius | OK, set to export translations back to the trunk. Thank you, wgrant | 08:44 |
| cjwatson | aquarius: review is *normally* the job of translation groups, I believe, since a maintainer can't be expected to know more than a few languages | 09:45 |
| cjwatson | https://help.launchpad.net/Translations/YourProject/ChoosingAGroup "Translation groups are a convenient way to delegate responsibility for reviewing translations" | 09:45 |
| wgrant | Right, but normally translations won't be held for review unless a corresponding translation group exists and the policy isn't Open. | 09:51 |
| cjwatson | Indeed, but it's still surely better for a translation group to review translations than for aquarius to do it, even with an Open policy. | 09:56 |
| cjwatson | wifitransfer has a translation group set. | 09:56 |
| cjwatson | aquarius can't likely provide meaningful review in most cases (nobody can do so for more than a few languages). | 09:57 |
| wgrant | Ah, if there are indeed translation groups set up, indeed. | 09:57 |
| aquarius | I made wifitransfer part of the Launchpad Translations group, as LP suggested. And a second translation has come in and that one doesn't seem to need review, so I suspect that wgrant was right and the German translator explicitly ticked the "this needs review" box | 11:40 |
| aquarius | so I did a review, which consisted of me basically agreeing to all of it and remembering that "Datei" is the German word for "files" :) | 11:40 |
| svij | aquarius: wrong, "Datei" is singular, "files" is plural. ;) | 11:50 |
| svij | scnr | 11:52 |
| * aquarius waves hands | 11:52 | |
| svij | :) | 11:52 |
| cjwatson | aquarius: Right, what I'm saying is that normally the review would (at some point) be performed by https://launchpad.net/~lp-l10n-de | 11:52 |
| aquarius | oh! really? | 11:52 |
| aquarius | I should have waited, then. Gotcha | 11:52 |
| cjwatson | https://translations.launchpad.net/~lp-l10n-de/+translations-to-review | 11:52 |
| aquarius | oops :) | 11:53 |
| cjwatson | (I think) | 11:53 |
| cjwatson | Because they can actually do a language-specific review | 11:53 |
| aquarius | Right. From now on I shall wait, then! That's what I get for being impatient, I suppose | 11:53 |
| cjwatson | I may have the URL wrong, but that's how I understand the process | 11:54 |
| rockhazard | Hey, folks! I'm trying to use Python3 w/ Pillow to filter out images in a list with aspect ratio of 1.6. This code seems to give me arbitrary results. I want the final list to include only images that have 1.6 aspect ratio. Please help! https://bpaste.net/show/e501a0941b9d | 13:29 |
| cjwatson | rockhazard: We're probably not experts in image processing here. Any particular reason you picked #launchpad? | 13:29 |
| rockhazard | OOOPS! Sorry. I have multiple channels open. /slinks away | 13:30 |
| cjwatson | Fair enough :) | 13:30 |

| CarlFK | Unknown release unstable | 17:33 |
| CarlFK | where do I specify release? (and it is a simple python script, so all/any would be great) | 17:33 |
| teward | CarlFK: changelog | 17:38 |
| teward | edit 'unstable' to be the target Ubuntu release for the PPA, and modify the changelog version string if you want to put the same version for different releases | 17:38 |
| teward | (i.e. VERSION-1~14.04.0 for trusty, VERSION-1~15.04.0 for vivid, etc.) | 17:39 |
| teward | and you only need to revise the latest changelog entry | 17:39 |
| CarlFK | teward: thanks | 17:53 |
| CarlFK | dpkg-buildpackage ... gpg: skipped "Carl F Karsten <carl@nextdayvideo.com>": secret key not available | 18:11 |

| xnox | can recipes use git repositories for package building? | 19:32 |
| xnox | i guess that all of that stuff depends on bzr-bd and well bzr... | 19:32 |
| xnox | what should I do instead? | 19:32 |
| dobey | xnox: i think there are plans to make it possible, but it doesn't work yet | 19:37 |

| CarlFK | dpkg-buildpackage ran ok locally. guessing I need something in Build-Depends ? | 20:15 |
| dobey | CarlFK: yes. try using pbuilder or sbuild locally to debug | 20:16 |
| CarlFK | dobey: um... pbuilder --what? | 20:22 |
| dobey | CarlFK: i use pbuilder-dist; but ln -s /usr/bin/pbuilder-dist pbuilder-trusty && ./pbuilder-trusty create && ./pbuilder-trusty foo.dsc | 20:24 |
| dobey | CarlFK: launchpad uses sbuild though, and it will give you closer results to what launchpad gives you | 20:24 |
| dobey | CarlFK: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SimpleSbuild | 20:24 |
