[13:35] <ehoover> I reported a bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1759920) about a kernel/microcode issue that affects both Artful and Xenial and trying to add Xenial to the "also affects" list results in an "Oops", would someone else mind giving it a try and see if I'm doing something wrong?
[14:30] <kyrofa> cjwatson, any chance you have the power to retry this upload for me? https://code.launchpad.net/~sergiusens/+snap/snapcraft/+build/177313
[16:41] <cjwatson> ehoover: best thing is to quote the oops id that you're given, since its purpose is to communicate information to developers
[16:42] <cjwatson> kyrofa: not super-convinced that that error is transient, but I've retried anyway
[16:43] <kyrofa> cjwatson, thank you, if it fails again we'll survive
[16:43] <cjwatson> kyrofa: seems to have succeeded, so what do I know
[16:43] <kyrofa> Hey! Alright, nice
[20:23] <bladernr> Hey, can someone tell me why git-commit is not expanding in my recipe?  according to this https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/SourceBuilds/Recipes#Specifying_revisions git-commit is a valid variable
[20:24] <bladernr> but what it doesn't say is whether that's valid for version 0.3, is there a new recipe version I should be using instead?
[20:24] <bladernr> oh... nevermind, 0.4 for git
[20:24] <bladernr> I see it now, it was lost in the text...
[20:24] <nacc> bladernr: :)
[20:24] <nacc> bladernr: was just about to say
[20:46] <ehoover> cjwatson: my oops id is OOPS-8493dcf8b62ec1587896280d33c4aa71 , who should I send this to?
[20:48] <cjwatson> ehoover: Ah, so you can't use "Also affects" to do this, you need to use "Nominate to series" or "Target to series" depending on your privileges.  Do you have either of those?
[20:49] <cjwatson> ehoover: (It's a bug that it OOPSes; feel free to file that on https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad, quoting the OOPS ID.  But at best it would just refuse more gracefully.)
[20:53] <ehoover> cjwatson: ah, okay - I thought I was allowed to do that since I made the bug
[20:54] <ehoover> cjwatson: and no, I do not have nominate or target options - oh well, I'm sure the person responding will do it if it matters :)
[20:57] <ehoover> thanks for the help though, I'll go ahead and file a launchpad bug once I get a chance so that others do not get confused :)
[20:58] <cjwatson> ehoover: I've targeted it to xenial for you now
[20:59] <ehoover> cjwatson: awesome, thanks - hopefully we can figure this out before it affects too many people :)
[21:10] <bladernr> eh... so still having trouble with a recipe... sigh...
[21:10] <bladernr> So I have a project that was originally bzr based, and was moved to git, but the bzr trees are still there.
[21:10] <bladernr> If I go to the git tree: https://code.launchpad.net/~hardware-certification/maas-cert-server/+git/maas-cert-server/+ref/master and create a new recipe
[21:11] <bladernr> once I save the recipe, the recipe is instead linked to the old bzr trunk and lp changes git-build-recipe in my recipe to bzr-builder
[21:11] <bladernr> what's a guy need to do to build a PPA recipe for a git tree?
[21:11] <bladernr> (or more accurately, what the heck have I screwed up :/ )
[21:13] <cjwatson> bladernr: See https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1623924, which has a workaround
[21:17] <bladernr> cjwatson, thanks, I've been running around in circles with that for the last half-hour or so.  The workaround did indeed fix it.
