[10:33] <xnox> xnox_, hey!
[10:34] <xnox> xnox_2, hey
[10:37] <xnox> xnox_chrome, hello!
[12:24] <rbasak> juliank: we use debian/sid as the target for the merge because then Launchpad generates a useful preview.
[12:24] <rbasak> It's a hack really.
[12:24] <juliank> Ah
[12:25] <juliank> for context: So I played with git-ubuntu (to merge multipath-tools). Not sure if I did everything right, but I figured it would be nice given the work already put into it. The wiki said to use debian/sid as the target for the merge proposal, but that does not seem to make much sense to me.  https://code.launchpad.net/~juliank/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+git/multipath-tools/+merge/336097
[12:25] <rbasak> The changelog generation hasn't been intended to be completely automatic. Perhaps it can be in the future. I still find it useful to provide a starting point though.
[12:25] <rbasak> You don't have to use it.
[12:26] <rbasak> Perhaps we need to fix the docs on that. You're not the only person to have different expectations from what it actually does ;)
[13:29] <Pharaoh_Atem> rbasak: I'm just surprised that git-ubuntu isn't turning into a nice little fedpkg-like tool for ubuntu stuff
[13:31] <rbasak> Pharaoh_Atem: ?
[13:31] <Pharaoh_Atem> rbasak: https://www.mankier.com/1/fedpkg
[13:31] <Pharaoh_Atem> a central tool for managing packaging workflows
[13:31] <juliank> git ubuntu is extremely complicated to work with, but I guess it has to since the whole merging with Debian thing is complicated
[13:32] <rbasak> Why do you say it's complicated?
[13:32] <juliank> Well, the workflow is complicated
[13:32] <juliank> with all the rebasing and stuff
[13:32] <rbasak> The _package merge_ workflow is complicated.
[13:32] <rbasak> That's not all of git-ubuntu.
[13:33] <juliank> rbasak: That's all I played with so far :)
[13:33] <rbasak> But yeah, like you say, that's the consequence of the nature of what Ubuntu is as a derivative.
[13:33] <rbasak> Fundamentally the package merge workflow is "git rebase".
[13:33] <Pharaoh_Atem> well, more like a child distro that hasn't yet walked away from the parent ;)
[13:34] <rbasak> What makes it more complicated is splitting up previous Ubuntu uploads that didn't use the workflow.
[13:34] <rbasak> Which of course is to be expected; it's the migration cost.
[17:09] <sil2100> cjwatson, wgrant: hey! Can we get https://dev.launchpad.net/Translations/LanguagePackSchedule updated to include bionic? I switched langpack-o-matic cron to run the l-o-m bits in place of yakkety
[17:15] <cjwatson> sil2100: done
[17:39] <sil2100> cjwatson: thanks again!

[19:11] <zomaar> Thx
[19:11] <zomaar> Was trying to figure out what the minimal approach was to trigger it
