[12:36] <mpt> Since July last year, the number of Launchpad user accounts has increased from 2849971 to 3812742.
[12:43] <mpt> That’s … a lot.
[12:47] <rbasak> Spam?
[12:48] <wgrant> No, but around half of the increase is from SSO accounts with usernames, which count toward that metric.
[13:27] <mpt> Correction: That’s since July 2015, not July 2016. Oops.
[13:27] <mpt> Still a big uptick, but not quite as big as I thought.
[14:38] <mpt> …And we had a similarly big uptick in 2013, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[17:29] <EvanCarroll> Is there any change to get the videolan ppa delisted? It hasn't built properly in over a year. It's confusing a lot of users by having the launchpad page. I've written to the maintainers multiple times, and they've never responded. It only serves to add confusion and waste resources.
[21:45] <karstensrage> how do you get the library version of stuff for a makefile?
[21:46] <karstensrage> like the ibraries on 12.04 are 2.15
[21:46] <karstensrage> but on 14.04 they are 2.36 i think
[21:46] <nacc> "the libraries"?
[21:47] <karstensrage> well stuff in /lib/{arch}
[21:47] <karstensrage> 2.19 on 14.04 i guess
[21:47] <karstensrage> 2.26 on 16.04
[21:47] <karstensrage> 2.36 on 16.04
[21:49] <nacc> karstensrage: that's not one library
[21:49] <nacc> karstensrage: so i don't know what version you are talking about
[21:50] <nacc> or why you'd be asking in the launchpad channel?
[21:50] <karstensrage> well cause generally #launchpad is much more helpful than #ubunto* or #deban*
[21:58] <karstensrage>  its all the libnss libraries
[22:00] <karstensrage> i built my own libnss and im trying to figure out the best way to package it for distribution
