| ezzieyguywuf | I am trying to upload a package to a ppa, however I get a rejection email that says the following: " Could not find a PPA owned by 'ezzieyguywuf' for 'ubuntu' named 'OccWrapper'." | 21:23 |
|---|---|---|
| ezzieyguywuf | but I have a ppa named such, here: https://launchpad.net/~ezzieyguywuf/+archive/ubuntu/occwrapper | 21:23 |
| hloeung | ezzieyguywuf: maybe all lowercase? so 'dput ppa:ezzieyguywuf/occwrapper <your.changes>' | 21:27 |
| ezzieyguywuf | hloeung: I've tried this | 22:48 |
| ezzieyguywuf | hloeung: thank you for the suggestion though | 22:48 |
| hloeung | ah, ok | 22:48 |
| ezzieyguywuf | whenever I tried all lower, it said it had already been uploaded | 22:48 |
| ezzieyguywuf | "Package has already been uploaded to ppa on ppa.launchpad.net" | 22:49 |
| hloeung | right, so that's not the same as the error above | 22:49 |
| ezzieyguywuf | correct | 22:49 |
| hloeung | I thin kyour versioning conflicts with that's already in Ubuntu | 22:49 |
| ezzieyguywuf | well, this "already uploaded" error is from dput | 22:49 |
| hloeung | you'll need to 'dch -i' and bump the version or something | 22:49 |
| ezzieyguywuf | the earlier error is from launchpad, via email | 22:49 |
| ezzieyguywuf | hloeung: can you elaborate? I'm stil lpretty new to these tings | 22:49 |
| hloeung | yes, but they're both different errors. One says PPA not found, the other is that PPA exists, just package version the same | 22:50 |
| ezzieyguywuf | hloeung: you're right | 22:50 |
| hloeung | you can't upload to PPAs the same version of a package as in Ubuntu, unless you configure oyur PPA to not inherit Ubuntu base packages | 22:50 |
| hloeung | https://launchpad.net/~ezzieyguywuf/+archive/ubuntu/occwrapper/+edit-dependencies | 22:50 |
| hloeung | oh, looks like you can't even do that | 22:50 |
| ezzieyguywuf | hloeung: you know, I get that, however per the email, my original upload was rejected - so why would I need to bump the version to push a "new" one? | 22:50 |
| hloeung | anyways, you'll need to bump your package version. Maybe google up 'dch -i' or similar | 22:51 |
| hloeung | ... because the PPA inherits packages and versions from the base Ubuntu repo | 22:51 |
| hloeung | if not, you and everyone with PPAs will have fun uploading bunch of dependencies | 22:52 |
| ezzieyguywuf | hm | 22:54 |
| ezzieyguywuf | I'm confused | 22:54 |
| ezzieyguywuf | but I'll try the version bump | 22:54 |
| ezzieyguywuf | hloeung: ooh. different error (via email from launchpad): " Unable to find occwrapper_0.1.4.orig.tar.gz in upload or distribution." | 23:01 |
| ezzieyguywuf | that's promising | 23:01 |
| wgrant | ezzieyguywuf: ("Package has already been uploaded" is a local error; you can override it with dput -f) | 23:06 |
| wgrant | ezzieyguywuf: For the "Unable to find" error, make sure you're building with debuild -S -sa rather than just debuild -S | 23:06 |
| ezzieyguywuf | wgrant: wah! that's a great tip | 23:07 |
| ezzieyguywuf | wgrant: found "-sa" online too, thanks for the tip | 23:07 |
| ezzieyguywuf | so now I'm on my version 3 due to not knowing the "-f" tip earlier. assuming this one goes through: is it possible to revert back to version 1? | 23:08 |
| ezzieyguywuf | or should I just leave it? | 23:08 |
| wgrant | ezzieyguywuf: If none of them were accepted, you can remove those extra entries from the changelog. | 23:08 |
| wgrant | It's only once the package is accepted that you can't reuse the version number | 23:08 |
| ezzieyguywuf | looks like version 3 was finally accepted | 23:09 |
| ezzieyguywuf | I'd like to rename it to version 1 though | 23:09 |
| wgrant | It's too late for that, and doesn't matter. | 23:09 |
| ezzieyguywuf | fair enough | 23:09 |
| ezzieyguywuf | while I go you: am I to understand that if I set up my debian/watch file correctly, any new tags posted will automatically be transfered over to the ppa without me having to manually upload anything with dput? | 23:10 |
| wgrant | No. | 23:11 |
| wgrant | debian/watch is just used by the "uscan" tool. There's nothing automatic about it. | 23:11 |
| wgrant | You may be able to use a source package recipe to have it happen automatically, though: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/SourceBuilds/Recipes | 23:12 |
| ezzieyguywuf | wgrant: ah. I'll take a look at these recipes thanks. First though I suppose I should fix whatever is causing the build in ppa to complete | 23:12 |
| ezzieyguywuf | thank you for your help! | 23:12 |
| wgrant | np | 23:20 |
