hay207guys, in launchpad, i want to translate a certain project, but i see translations as closed09:51
hay207Translation policy09:51
hay207how to translate this project then ?09:51
jonathonHi, I deleted a package [1] from a PPA [2] but it's still present [3] and being picked up by apt. How can I remove it entirely? [1] python-django [2] https://launchpad.net/~jonathonf/+archive/ubuntu/backports [3] http://ppa.launchpad.net/jonathonf/backports/ubuntu/pool/main/p/python-django/10:36
jonathonI deleted the package a week ago so it should have gone by now (according to https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Deleting)10:40
jonathonI suppose I can re-create the PPA, rebuilding packages to an intermediary PPA10:44
wgrantjonathon: You hit a race condition between the build and the deletion.10:45
jonathonYay. Do I win anything? :)10:45
wgrantThe source package was deleted before the build had finished, so the binary was published after the source was deleted.10:45
wgrantSo the binary is still alive.10:45
jonathonAh, right10:46
wgrantIf you hit "Delete packages", change the "Published" filter to "Superseded", and then delete the already deleted source again, all should be good.10:46
wgrantIt'll drop out of apt within 20 minutes, and disappear from ppa.launchpad.net in <12h10:46
jonathonExcellent, thank you10:47
jonathonThat's easier than hopping packages between PPAs10:47
wgranthay207: You need to be a member of the relevant language's translation team.10:47
hay207ok, but the language for that program was not even created10:48
hay207i.e no translation team yet10:48
wgranthay207: Which project and language?10:49
hay207btnx , arabic10:49
wgrantThe project may be using an existing translation group that already has a team for that language, even if the project doesn't have that translation yet.10:49
hay207https://translations.launchpad.net/btnx-config/trunk/+pots/btnx-config/ar/+details10:50
wgrantAh, btnx-config rather than btnx.10:50
wgranthay207: That project doesn't have a translation group configured.10:51
wgrantYou'll need to talk to the project's owner.10:51
hay207ok, thanks10:51
jonathonJust confirming my issue was fixed. :)11:16
