=== madwizar1 is now known as madwizard [09:53] Does this channel have a public log? :) [09:53] Wondering if my question yesterday was answered [09:57] alwyn: irclogs.ubuntu.com [09:57] rbasak: thank you, found it :) [09:57] Apparently it was not answered :( [09:58] I don't think your question is really answerable. [09:58] Besides "because nobody has". [10:00] Is it a lot of work to do? I might be interested in helping out, provided it doesn't take hours to read the proper procedures to do so first ~.~ [10:05] Looks like the fix is backportable, and somebody has done it in a PPA, but nobody has replied with positive test results. Comment 15 doesn't make sense to me. [10:06] Procedure here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure [10:06] If you've not dealt with patching distribution packages before, it will take you a while to read up. === dreamon_ is now known as dreamon [10:45] That's more or less what I was afraid of :P I wish I had the time do read all that but unfortunately I do not. [10:46] read+actually do it I mean === freyes__ is now known as freyes [18:14] hi. can you please make launchpad not mark public bugs as duplicates of private ones? [18:15] bug 1628250 [18:15] Error: Launchpad bug 1628250 could not be found [18:18] this prevents me from getting a retrace, discussing the bug, or generally interacting with it in any way [18:20] ali1234: the bug is marked private because nobody has gone through to make sure sensitive info is removed from the bug. [18:20] yes, i know [18:21] i went through *my* bug to make sure it had no private information and marked it public [18:21] but then apport just marked it as a duplicate of the private one [18:21] which is stupid [18:21] ali1234: but the bug that's been marked *as* a duplicate hasn't gone through that process [18:21] that's why it's still private [18:21] no [18:21] bug 1665048 [18:21] Error: Could not gather data from Launchpad for bug #1665048 (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1665048). The error has been logged [18:21] yes, actually. (If dupe == private, originalPost is hidden) [18:22] at least, in a sense. [18:22] it is not hidden from me [18:22] looks like it is hidden from the bot though [18:22] ali1234: the issue is that the crash has already been reported - we don't need fifteen reports on the same crash which is why the retracer exists [18:22] well here's the thing [18:23] nobody is going to fix it until someone makes a bug report public [18:23] which i have just done for exactly that reason [18:23] but apport won't allow me to do this [18:23] it just tells me to discuss it on the other bug (which i can't access) [18:25] here is what apport should do instead: if it determines that two reports are the same bug, and one is public and the other is private, then the private one should be made a duplicate of the public one [18:26] that's a #launchpad question i believe on "How to make the retracer better" [18:31] i can't find it :( [18:32] no i'm saying that's soimething you should ask about there about how the retracer works, I don't know enough about that to answer reliably. [18:32] https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/237214 is the same issue [18:32] from 2013 [18:33] and https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/182866 from 2011 [18:33] which points to this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/764414 [18:33] Ubuntu bug 764414 in apport (Ubuntu) "private master bugs are confusing and lead to more duplicate filings" [Wishlist,Triaged] [18:34] which is 6 years old and has like 25 duplicates [18:43] commented. i guess i'll just move on to fixing something else :/ === mwhudson_ is now known as mwhudson === mwhudson is now known as Guest32650 === mwhudson_ is now known as mwhudson
