[14:22] <IOhannes> i'm a Debian Developer and wonder whether there's a way for me to close bugs on launchpad a) without having a launchpad account and b) without going through debian/changelog (that is: for old bugs that have been fixed long ago, but have not been closed with an "LP: #XXXXX" stanza back then)
[14:23] <IOhannes> and generally: how to interact with launchpad bugs without having an account
[14:25] <cjwatson> IOhannes: "LP: #XXXXX" in the changelog will close bugs when the package is synced/merged into Ubuntu; but other than that, you must have a Launchpad account in order to make any kind of modification to data held by Launchpad.
[14:26] <IOhannes> too bad
[14:26] <IOhannes> cjwatson: but thanks anyhow
[14:26] <cjwatson> yw
[14:27] <cjwatson> (The changelog thing isn't really an exception; the bug change just gets attributed either to a bot account in the case of verbatim syncs, or the person who did the merge if there was manual merge work required.)
[14:29] <IOhannes> would an LP account automatically grant me powers to close bugs?
[14:37] <zyga> stgraber: hey, I came across this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1805182 -- I think it warrants some aid from foundations
[14:44] <cjwatson> IOhannes: Some kinds of status changes are restricted and the exact details of what's restricted may change, but at the moment if you have an account and can see the bug then you can close it, yes
[14:46] <IOhannes> thx again
[14:50] <stgraber> zyga: yeah, we've seen ocasional reports of this one from LXD users, maybe xnox has an idea what's going on with systemd
[19:02] <juliank> $ sudo /snap/bin/apt --version
[19:02] <juliank> apt 1.8.0 (amd64)
[19:03] <juliank> Yes, I already installed a package with it, it's working fine
[19:04] <juliank> hmm
[19:05] <juliank> it seems the wrapper run the host apt, not the snap
[21:25] <jdstrand> bdmurray: hey, fyi, I updated the description in bug #181112 based on my recollection of our conversation and reuploaded to bionic and cosmic. let me know if I need to do anything else to have it approved
[21:25] <jdstrand> bug #1811129
[23:50] <bdmurray> jdstrand: I briefly reviewed the description and it seems fine. I'll look at the whole SRU tomorrow during my shift.
