ScottEI could use some help in getting a package fixed for bionic, referring to launchpad #1755615 - the version of the PCP package in bionic (4.0.0-1) is currently seriously broken in that the package's daemons don't start. I submitted a patch to the upstream repo. That fix went into PCP 4.0.1 and is in debian sid (as 4.0.1-1). This is a universe package with no ubuntu specific changes. How can I help get the23:11

ScottEnew version into bionic?23:11
ScottEIt seems likely nobody else has discovered this, since the current bionic version is broken (artful has an older version that doesn't suffer from the same bug).23:12
persiaScottE: You'd need to have someone with upload permissions to universe sync it from Debian.23:16
ScottEOK, thanks persia - I wasn't sure exactly how it worked for this case (where there is no patch). Is this the right place, then, or should I ask in #ubuntu-release?23:18
persiaI *think* this is the right place, but I admit to not being familiar with current best practices.23:18
persiaThere may also be a way to set the bug title just so, add the right comment, and subscribe the right team to get someone to look at it.23:19
persia(search the wiki for sync)23:19
persiaIt may be late enough in the cycle that some freeze exception documentation is necessary, but I also can't guide you on that.  Apologies for my limited utility in this matter.23:19
ScottEFair enough, thanks! I did a cursory look through the wiki, but let me look specifically around that keyword.23:19
ScottEYeah, no worries - I know it's late in the cycle. Thanks, I do appreciate your reply, and no apology necessary!23:20
persiaFor people with the right permission, it's a button on LP.  The rest of us need to request it in the right way (and asking on this channel is usually a good way to get instructions how to do it)23:20
persiaGood luck!23:20
ScottEThank you!23:20
tsimonq2ScottE: I'll take care of it, on the condition that I'm sponsoring it for you. ;)23:41
ScottEHi tsimonq2! Thanks, I do appreciate that sponsorship. I just updated the launchpad bug attempting to follow the process for sync plus freeze exception.23:43
ScottEThat was fast - I see it in the queue per #ubuntu-release23:45
tsimonq2Yep. :)23:45
ScottEThank you again, I really appreciate it23:46
tsimonq2No problem. :)23:50
