[00:34] <ezzieyguywuf> I'm trying to build my package in pbuilder, but I get a strange error that I don't understand: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/GFmSWBQ7BS/
[00:34] <ezzieyguywuf> it says that it can't satisfy a dependency because it's a "virtual package"
[00:34] <ezzieyguywuf> hm, sorry this is probbly the wrong channel for this
[17:07] <ezzieyguywuf> I'm trying to follow the instructions located here: https://help.launchpad.net/Code/Git#Mirroring_repositories_from_other_sites
[17:07] <ezzieyguywuf> however, I don't see anywhere in my launchpad that says "configuration options"
[17:07] <ezzieyguywuf> does anyone know where I may find this link?
[17:20] <cjwatson> ezzieyguywuf: As it says, it's on the main page for a project you maintain (not your user page or whatever)
[17:49] <ezzieyguywuf> cjwatson: I've navigated here (https://launchpad.net/~ezzieyguywuf/+archive/ubuntu/occwrapper) which is the main page for a project I maintain
[17:49] <ezzieyguywuf> but there is nothing here about "configuration options"
[17:51] <ezzieyguywuf> cjwatson: here's what I see https://pasteboard.co/HIB3xdU.png
[17:55] <cjwatson> ezzieyguywuf: That's a PPA, not a project.
[17:55] <cjwatson> ezzieyguywuf: What exactly are you trying to do?
[17:57] <ezzieyguywuf> cjwatson: I want to mirror my git repository, which is hosted on gittlab, and then create a recipe that will build deb packages based on new tags
[17:58] <cjwatson> ezzieyguywuf: And you're the upstream maintainer of this thing - it isn't a fork of something that somebody else maintains?
[18:00] <ezzieyguywuf> cjwatson: that's correct
[18:00] <cjwatson> ezzieyguywuf: Probably best to register a project to hold the git import, then.  https://help.launchpad.net/Projects/Registering
[18:01] <ezzieyguywuf> cjwatson: ah, I see.
[18:01] <ezzieyguywuf> I'm still learning the terminology. I did not realize that "Project" had special significance over "PPA"
[18:01] <ezzieyguywuf> can you expound a bit as to what the differences are?
[18:02] <cjwatson> Right, it's a different category.  A project is a representation of an upstream project, with various optional things attached to it like bug tracking, code hosting, etc.; a PPA (personal package archive) is just an environment for publishing .deb packages.
[18:02] <cjwatson> Neither replaces the other.
[18:02] <ezzieyguywuf> ah hah, I see. Well "Project" is definitely what I'm looking for then
[18:02] <cjwatson> You need both
[18:03] <ezzieyguywuf> right
[18:03] <ezzieyguywuf> ok this is starting to make more sense, thank you for the help.
[18:05] <cjwatson> np
[18:59] <kisak> g'day, looks like https://launchpad.net/~openstack-ubuntu-testing/+archive/ubuntu/queens/+build/15524820 is a stalled build?
