Grorco | Hi guys, I'm not a professional by any means, but I love open source and know my way around python a bit. I'd like to try to help with debugging but not sure how to get started. Can anyone help me getting set up? | 01:51 |

blahdeblah | Grorco: Hang around for a while; the main devs are in EU time zones at the moment, so it might take a while for them to respond. | 01:52 |
Grorco | blahdeblah, cool thanks :) | 01:54 |

cjwatson | Grorco: Have you already looked through the relevant-to-you bits of https://dev.launchpad.net/ ? | 10:10 |
oSoMoN | is there an ETA for the availability of the arm* builders? | 14:44 |
cjwatson | Maaaaaaaaybe today. But we'll see. | 14:47 |
oSoMoN | cjwatson, that's good news, thanks! | 14:48 |
oSoMoN | cjwatson, can I request an exception for https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/63.0.3239.132-0ubuntu1 ? | 14:49 |
cjwatson | oSoMoN: Yep, primary archive stuff is usually OK. Done. | 14:56 |
oSoMoN | cheers | 14:57 |
arpallet | Hi All, | 16:27 |
arpallet | I am trying to upload equivs-build to PPA. Is it possible ? | 16:27 |
arpallet | I see there is a bug related to it, https://askubuntu.com/questions/784796/ppa-upload-of-custom-kernel-package | 16:27 |
arpallet | Is it fixed ? Is there a support now to upload equivs-build | 16:27 |
cjwatson | arpallet: You can upload anything provided it's in the form of a source package. We are never going to permit uploading binary packages directly | 16:42 |
cjwatson | (also, askubuntu posts are not bugs) | 16:42 |
cjwatson | Anyway, there seems to be an answer there that you could use | 16:43 |
cjwatson | Ah, though I guess equivs-build is really not very much like a kernel package | 16:43 |
arpallet | cjwatson: Sorry i pasted a wrong link there, this is the bug i was talking about https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/equivs/+bug/1374090 | 16:44 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1374090 in equivs (Ubuntu) "Add source building (for upload to a PPA)" [Undecided,Invalid] | 16:44 |
cjwatson | arpallet: So, we're never going to allow you to upload the result of equivs-build directly, but you can just run debuild -S in the directory that it leaves behind | 16:44 |
arpallet | equivs-build requires only control file, so i was having only control file for the package. Now as you said if i need to run debuild -S, there should be changelog and other required files. Is my understanding right ? | 16:47 |
cjwatson | equivs-build creates those and | 16:49 |
cjwatson | Ah, but unfortunately it doesn't appear to leave the result behind | 16:49 |
cjwatson | Sorry, you'll have to either write an actual source package yourself, or hack equivs-build to not delete its build directory, or experiment with the suggested patch to equivs-build in that bug | 16:50 |
cjwatson | Since equivs-build is a single file, you could just copy it to your home directory and apply the patch locally | 16:50 |
arpallet | Thanks @cjwatson, i will try that | 16:51 |
