| __marco | Hello. I am uploading source packages to launchpad and sometime the packages are not built. The package are correctly uploaded: "Successfully uploaded packages." but the build is not launched | 09:40 |
|---|---|---|
| __marco | From launchpad I cannot see any related information | 09:40 |
| __marco | I uploaded the same package for three distributions: trusty, xenial and bionic and only the bionic upload succeed | 09:41 |
| __marco | https://launchpad.net/~marco-giusti/+archive/ubuntu/qemu/+packages | 09:41 |
| __marco | The first attempt was to create a source package for the tree distributions, listing all of them in the changelog. The build was never ran. | 09:42 |
| __marco | In the second attempt I uploaded the package for bionic only and it worked. | 09:43 |
| __marco | In the third and fourth attempts I uploaded the package for trusty and xenial, using the same procedure and the builds has not be lunched | 09:44 |
| __marco | I just notice this message: "Package includes an .orig.tar.gz file although the debian revision suggests | 09:45 |
| __marco | that it might not be required. Multiple uploads of the .orig.tar.gz may be | 09:45 |
| __marco | rejected by the upload queue management software. | 09:45 |
| __marco | " | 09:45 |
| __marco | and actually the orig.tar.gz package is the same for the three distributions | 09:45 |
| __marco | Sorry for the noise, every time I received an email, but I didn't notice | 10:00 |
| wgrant | Yeah, dput doesn't provide much opportunity for feedback, so email it is | 10:18 |
| wgrant | You'll always get an email unless you didn't sign the .changes properly | 10:18 |
| __marco | How much time does it takes to remove a package? I uploaded one this morning at 9:30 UTC+2, removed short after but it is still there. | 14:07 |
| __marco | The is an incompatibility with the source package and I am blocked | 14:08 |
| acheronuk | what is the message in the email? | 14:11 |
| __marco | File vde-netemu_20180929.orig.tar.gz already exists in virtualbricks, but uploaded version has different contents | 14:32 |
| acheronuk | right. well you can never upload the same source file name with different contents in the same PPA. the PPA remembers the file hash for ever and will not permit it | 14:36 |
| acheronuk | so you will have to increase/change the orig.tar name in some way | 14:37 |
| __marco | acheronuk: I removed that package but the files are still there. And, by the way, the content is the same but it hashes differently. Different compression levels in different machines? | 14:37 |
| __marco | I will increase the version | 14:38 |
| acheronuk | it remembers even if you delete it ;) | 14:38 |
| __marco | diabolic | 14:39 |
| __marco | acheronuk: I abuse of your kindness. How would you upload the *same* package for different distributions? | 14:40 |
| acheronuk | sensible if you think about it. it protects the consistency/integrity of any archive so you don't get altered source packages without any sign they have changed | 14:40 |
| __marco | first I tried to use different distributions in the changelog. Didn't work | 14:41 |
| __marco | I remember once upon a time I used to upload the orig for one distribution but not for others | 14:42 |
| acheronuk | __marco: change the distribution in the changelog, then build and sign the new source package | 14:42 |
| __marco | I forget how I did it and it was a personal repository, not launchpad | 14:42 |
| __marco | acheronuk: but then I have to change the version too. The error is because I try to upload the same version for different distributions | 14:43 |
| __marco | Did you try this:https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Uploading#Using_packages_from_other_distributions? | 14:44 |
| acheronuk | yes, append a ~ version for different ubuntu series | 14:48 |
| acheronuk | e.g. https://launchpad.net/~rikmills/+archive/ubuntu/latte-dock/+packages | 14:49 |
| __marco | acheronuk: I see. Thank you | 14:49 |
