cjwatsonwgrant: It does indeed fix that bug, anyway.00:11
wgrantcjwatson: Yay.00:44
cjwatson2015-10-13 18:15:37.484 10525 WARNING Too long db name: launchpad_ftest_template_10065_e95fa37c_71a7_11e5_961a_00163e9546d513:45
cjwatsonhmm13:45
cjwatsonMaybe a UUID was a bit ambitious13:45
cjwatsonUsing uuid.hex would be enough to get us under the limit though13:48
jtvcjwatson: really going for scalability there, eh?15:23
cjwatsonTotally!15:34
cjwatson(PIDs were clashing in practice sometimes, esp with LXC ...)15:34
jtv16 bits is not a lot...15:36
jtvThen again, I've worked with long, randomised pids and those are no fun either.  :)15:36
jtv(Even if they are probably safer)15:36
jtvBut security was more important than convenience...  For a few weeks I had no independent access to food, bathrooms, the outside, or the internet while doing my work.15:37
jtvYou really get to hate those long PIDs through a slow, fixed-80-column Windows NT terminal emulator with acute line-break bugs after a while...15:38
jtvI mean really _hate_.15:38
lifelesswgrant: what happened to bug linking22:44
lifelesswgrant: was it behind a feature flag, or never delivered?22:44
wgrantlifeless: Never implemented.22:44
wgrantThe team was vaporised days after you left :)22:45
lifelessouch, thanks22:45
wgrantlifeless: We're vaguely working on arbitrary object cross-references, though.22:46
lifelessoh, that would be good22:46
lifelessif meta22:46
wgrantlifeless: question/bug/cve/spec links use generic infrastructure now, though the UI is not genericised yet.22:46
wgrantJust changed over the last couple of weeks.22:46
lifelessnice22:46
wgrantThe plan is to genericise the UI, and then basic bug linking becomes easy, and we can work from there.22:47
wgrantlifeless: You probably recall the whole weirdness around multi-task bugs and bugwatches, though.22:49
wgrantSome cases of buglinking are handled natively by tasks.22:49
wgrantAnd external bugs can be linked to in a limited way.22:49
wgrantBut linking to other internal bugs is not currently possible.22:50
wgrantAnd adding a third way is Fun™.22:50
