wxlhow can i view all the bugs for a particular tag regardless of package? it seems the tag links in a particular bug are package-specific.00:31
wgrantwxl: Use the tag field on https://launchpad.net/bugs/+bugs?advanced=1 for all of LP, or https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?advanced=1 for all Ubuntu packages.02:44

smosero/ . i'm not certain this is the right place to ping, but I have gotten more than one message like https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RSdgh8svcH/13:45
smoserSubject: lists.debian.org has received bounces from you13:45
smoserto my smoser@ubuntu.com email which forwards to a "gmail + addressing" address.13:45
cjwatsonsmoser: Nothing to do with Launchpad14:00
cjwatsonIS runs email14:00
smosercjwatson: in the past i'd have asked in #is (or opened an rt)14:01
smoserwhat do i do since that is not available to me now?14:01
cjwatsonsmoser: #canonical-sysadmin14:01
cjwatsonsmoser: or rt@ubuntu.com14:02

nhasianwhat does it mean in Build status "Failed to build on lgw01-amd64-036"14:43
cjwatsonlgw01-amd64-036 is the name of a builder14:49
cjwatsonYou very likely don't care about that14:49
cjwatsonThe interesting bit is that it failed, and the build log which should be linked from the build page14:49
nhasiancjwatson: what am I looking for in the build log? https://launchpadlibrarian.net/436558291/buildlog_ubuntu-bionic-amd64.nnn_2.6-1~ubuntu18.04.1~ppa1_BUILDING.txt.gz14:52
nhasiancjwatson:nevermind I think I found it14:52
nhasianit says I don't have a public key14:52
nhasianwhich is weird because I did both the ssh and pgp keys14:53
SpecialK|Canonnhasian: there's a bunch of compilation errors at the bottom that look like your issue14:53
SpecialK|Canonnhasian: the key thing just looks like a warning14:54
SpecialK|CanonI generally like to start reading build failure logs from the bottom up - first identify the core issue, then look backwards for causes14:54
cjwatsonRight, the public key bit there is not relevant.14:56
cjwatsonLooks like some ncurses-related backporting problem14:57
cjwatsonSo the problem is that the nnn package you were backporting relies on the libncurses*-dev package merge that happened as a result of https://bugs.debian.org/84042915:01
ubot5Debian bug 840429 in libtinfo-dev "Please explain " Packages should not build-depend on this package. "" [Normal,Fixed]15:01
cjwatsonI think you need to change libncurses-dev to libncursesw5-dev in debian/control (reverting to what was used in an earlier version of the nnn package) to cope with that15:02
cjwatsonSo grab your source package back from https://launchpad.net/~nhasian/+archive/ubuntu/nnn/+packages if you don't have it already, unpack it, edit debian/control, use "dch -i" to add another entry to the top of debian/changelog explaining the change, build source package, upload15:03
nhasiancjwatson: thaks I feel I'm very close to getting this right. So I edited debian/control and also ran dch -i to explain the changes. Then I use debuild and then dput correct?16:45
cjwatsonmake sure to use debuild -S, and then I'd generally advise running debdiff between the old and new .dsc files to make sure the changes are as you expect16:47
cjwatsonand then dput on the .changes, yes16:47
nhasiancjwatson: when I try to debuild it says error: Unmet build dependencies: libncurses5w-dev16:50
nhasianah I think it should be libncurses5-dev16:52
cjwatsonnhasian: I gave you the right package name above17:03
cjwatsonnhasian: libncursesw5-dev, not either of libncurses5w-dev or libncurses5-dev17:04
nhasianis this causing the fatal error when trying to debuild "dpkg-source: error: Version number suggests Ubuntu changes, but Maintainer: does not have Ubuntu address"17:19
nhasianI changed the maintainer line to my ubuntu address and the debuild compelted successfully. used dput to upload new version to launchpad. Lets see if the build completes this time17:27
nhasiancjwatson: thanks to your help, I was finally able to publish the latest version of nnn to my launchpad PPA.20:11
nhasianI'm still scratching my head trying to figure out how you were able to tell from looking at the building log that I needed libncursesw5-dev.20:19
