[11:55] <slickymaster> cjwatson, ping
[12:00] <slickymaster> quick question, I've upload 2 PPAs this week and even though they were successfully built my Recent activities page is not showing it
[12:00] <slickymaster> any reasons why that might be happening?
[12:12] <slickymaster> cjwatson, almost forget -> https://launchpad.net/~slickymaster
[17:38] <cjwatson> slickymaster: https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/569264
[17:38] <ubot5> Launchpad bug 569264 in Launchpad itself "No Karma for PPA uploads" [Low,Triaged]
[18:12] <slickymaster> thanks cjwatson
[18:12] <slickymaster> that's a really old bug
[18:13] <slickymaster> but I'm not sure it applies in this case cjwatson, since I'm the PPA vreator in both
[18:13] <slickymaster> s/vreator/creator
[18:14] <slickymaster> or am I misundertooding something?
[18:15] <slickymaster> misunderstanding even
[18:55] <cjwatson> slickymaster: The email address you used in the changelog isn't registered to your account on Launchpad, which is why you ran into that bug.
[18:56] <cjwatson> slickymaster: Because it uses the email address to work out who the package creator (not the PPA creator) is.
[19:02] <slickymaster> hmm that's odd
[19:02] <slickymaster> oh now I see
[19:03] <slickymaster> slickymaster at gmail.com and not slickymaster at ubuntu .com
[19:03] <slickymaster> is that what you're referring to, cjwatson?
[19:04] <cjwatson> slickymaster: Yes
[19:04] <slickymaster> right
[19:04] <cjwatson> Incidentally you don't want to have only @ubuntu.com on your LP account anyway
[19:04] <slickymaster> right
[19:04] <cjwatson> Because the email forwarding setup for @ubuntu.com uses the addresses on your LP account to work out where to forward to
[19:04] <slickymaster> so it's just a matter of making an upload with the matching mail, right<'
[19:05] <slickymaster> ?
[19:11] <slickymaster> cjwatson, if I could bother you with one other thing
[19:12] <slickymaster> LP doesn't let me change me email from slickymaster at ubuntu.com back to slickymaster at ubuntu .com
[19:12] <slickymaster> gmail that is
[19:13] <slickymaster> I'm getting "The email address 'slickymaster@gmail.com' is already registered to David Pires. If you think that is a duplicated account, you can merge it into your account." when I try to change it
[19:25] <cjwatson> slickymaster: Oh, right, a placeholder account was autocreated when you used that email address on an upload.  You can go to https://launchpad.net/~slickymaster-c and claim it
[19:25] <cjwatson> slickymaster: (the "Are you David Pires?" link there)
[19:25] <slickymaster> yep, that's me :)
[19:26] <cjwatson> I wouldn't try to *change* your email address as such - just merge those two accounts so that both email addresses are on the same account
[19:27] <slickymaster> done and will not chnage it as you advise
[19:27] <slickymaster> so will LP catch up now on the PPAs activity or will have have to do another upload of both?
[19:30] <cjwatson> I suspect not.  I wouldn't upload just for that.
[19:31] <cjwatson> Karma isn't massively important for very much ...
[19:31] <slickymaster> agree
[19:31] <slickymaster> wasn't worried about karma itself
[19:31] <slickymaster> anyway thanks for your help on solving this
[19:33] <cjwatson> np
