rbasakI noticed that if I sign a changes file for a PPA upload, I have to (theoretically) treat the changes file as a secret because someone else could use it to upload to Ubuntu.11:12
rbasakDoes the same apply to a changes file intended for an upload to Ubuntu?11:12
rbasakI'm pondering about storing a signed changes file in a git tag. Then the importer would be able to do an upload itself. But a consequence of this is that all changes files corresponding to Ubuntu uploads made this way would be public forever.11:13
rbasak(there are other issues with this, such as getting binary-identical source package files out of the git repo, so this has the same issues as pristine-tar of course)11:14
=== dpm_ is now known as dpm
cjwatsonYes, changes files are signed instructions to the upload machinery.  If you publish them you have to strip the signature11:19
cjwatsonUnfortunately the format of the changes file wasn't very well-considered when PPAs were invented11:19
cjwatsonThey don't specify the target archive, so it is possible to reuse a signed changes file to upload to a different target archive11:20
cjwatsondgit has "dgit push", why not use/follow that?11:23
cjwatson(If your importer isn't dgit-compatible, I think that may be a mistake)11:23
rbasakI'll look into that, thanks.11:58

nacccjwatson: thanks for the suggestions! the importer is ... still just an importer. We're not working on the tooling on top of it for merges/dev and being dgit-compatible is a great suggestion18:02
tewardare there issues with the system and serving of packages from PPAs?18:16
tewardgetting reports that one of the PPAs I work on isn't serving arm64 packages18:16
tewardand Launchpad says it's there18:17
cjwatsonteward: not afaik, you'll need to give specifics18:20
tewardcjwatson: getting reports that Xenial packages in arm64 on this are not being picked up by apt: https://launchpad.net/~nginx/+archive/ubuntu/stable/+packages18:21
tewardhttps://answers.launchpad.net/nginx/+question/29537818:21
tewardit's seeing 'nginx' and 'nginx-common' but not the flavors18:21
tewardso it fails to install18:21
naccteward: hrm, i don't see any arm builds?18:22
cjwatsonteward: well, sure, that PPA doesn't build for arm6418:22
nacc*arm6418:23
cjwatsonteward: nor does the ~teward/ubuntu/nginx-stable-testing PPA that you copied the most recent packages from18:23
cjwatsonteward: so the arm64 binaries that exist are in fact just the Architecture: all binaries, which are published for all architectures18:23
cjwatsonteward: you can enable arm64 on https://launchpad.net/~teward/+archive/ubuntu/nginx-stable-testing/+edit if you like18:24
tewardhrm18:24
tewardcjwatson: that's... unusual I thought I had selected arm6418:25
tewardi've queued arm64 builds now18:26
