| CarlFK | "File dvsource-v4l2-other_0.1-1.debian.tar.xz already exists in PPA ..." Is there a way to replace it? all I am doing is trying to satisfy the build deps | 00:19 |
|---|---|---|
| CarlFK | and where did .debian come from? | 00:20 |
| wgrant | CarlFK: The debian.tar.* file contains the debian/ directory of the package. | 00:36 |
| wgrant | CarlFK: If you want to change a package, you must also change the version number in the changelog. | 00:36 |
| wgrant | You can't upload 0.1-1, and then later upload a 0.1-1 that is different. | 00:36 |
| CarlFK | wgrant: ok. I'll keep bumping the -version | 00:37 |
| CarlFK | my package contains ./usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dvsource-v4l2-other.py but not the symlink .. which I expected to show up in my $path | 04:22 |
| CarlFK | https://launchpadlibrarian.net/216216218/buildlog_ubuntu-trusty-amd64.dvsource-v4l2-other_0.2-ubuntu1_BUILDING.txt.gz | 04:23 |
| wgrant | CarlFK: Which symlink do you expect and why? | 04:49 |
| wgrant | What happens when you build the package locally? | 04:49 |
| CarlFK | wgrant: lrwxrwxrwx 1 carl carl 22 Aug 30 03:03 dvsource-v4l2-other -> dvsource-v4l2-other.py | 04:50 |
| CarlFK | someone helped me package it and lead me to believe it would see the x bit and know to put it somewhere it could be x-ed ;) | 04:51 |
| CarlFK | when I build locally, I get a .deb but I didn't test to see what was in it | 04:51 |
| wgrant | You should test this locally until you get what you need. | 04:52 |
| CarlFK | there may have been a misunderstanding about what the dh-python? helper was doing | 04:52 |
| CarlFK | how do I test it? | 04:52 |
| wgrant | What do you mean? | 04:52 |
| wgrant | You were able to detect that the package built on Launchpad was wrong. | 04:53 |
| wgrant | Build it locally and perform the same detection. | 04:53 |
| wgrant | The same issue will appear locally, which makes debugging a lot easier. | 04:53 |
| CarlFK | I have 2nd box I was testing on using apt-get | 04:53 |
| CarlFK | guessing you mean dpkg -i on my dev box? | 04:54 |
| wgrant | Right, or the second box. | 04:54 |
| CarlFK | k - so how do I get that symlink put in /usr/bin (I guess that is where it should go?) and maybe the .py also? (I was surprised to hear it should go in site packages.) | 04:55 |
| wgrant | I am surprised to hear that also. | 04:55 |
| CarlFK | I think my helper thought this was a python module I would be importing. | 04:55 |
| wgrant | #ubuntu-packaging may be helpful. | 04:55 |
| xnox | cjwatson: cool. | 08:37 |

| tgm4883 | Is there a built in way in launchpad to get an email when a source package is uploaded to a PPA when you aren't a member of the managing team? | 22:22 |
| cjwatson | tgm4883: Not currently. | 23:12 |
| cjwatson | It wouldn't be totally implausible to have archive subscriptions or some such, but they don't exist today. | 23:13 |
| cjwatson | tgm4883: (https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/200643) | 23:29 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 200643 in Launchpad itself "PPA subscription/feed" [Low,Triaged] | 23:29 |
