[00:31] <wxl> how 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.
[02:44] <wgrant> wxl: 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.
[13:45] <smoser> o/ . 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] <smoser> Subject: lists.debian.org has received bounces from you
[13:45] <smoser> to my smoser@ubuntu.com email which forwards to a "gmail + addressing" address.
[14:00] <cjwatson> smoser: Nothing to do with Launchpad
[14:00] <cjwatson> IS runs email
[14:01] <smoser> cjwatson: in the past i'd have asked in #is (or opened an rt)
[14:01] <smoser> what do i do since that is not available to me now?
[14:01] <cjwatson> smoser: #canonical-sysadmin
[14:02] <cjwatson> smoser: or rt@ubuntu.com
[14:02] <smoser> thank you.

[14:43] <nhasian> what does it mean in Build status "Failed to build on lgw01-amd64-036"
[14:49] <cjwatson> lgw01-amd64-036 is the name of a builder
[14:49] <cjwatson> You very likely don't care about that
[14:49] <cjwatson> The interesting bit is that it failed, and the build log which should be linked from the build page
[14:52] <nhasian> cjwatson: 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.gz
[14:52] <nhasian> cjwatson:nevermind I think I found it
[14:52] <nhasian> it says I don't have a public key
[14:53] <nhasian> which is weird because I did both the ssh and pgp keys
[14:53] <SpecialK|Canon> nhasian: there's a bunch of compilation errors at the bottom that look like your issue
[14:54] <SpecialK|Canon> nhasian: the key thing just looks like a warning
[14:54] <SpecialK|Canon> I generally like to start reading build failure logs from the bottom up - first identify the core issue, then look backwards for causes
[14:56] <cjwatson> Right, the public key bit there is not relevant.
[14:57] <cjwatson> Looks like some ncurses-related backporting problem
[15:01] <cjwatson> So 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/840429
[15:02] <cjwatson> I 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 that
[15:03] <cjwatson> So 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, upload
[16:45] <nhasian> cjwatson: 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?
[16:47] <cjwatson> make 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 expect
[16:47] <cjwatson> and then dput on the .changes, yes
[16:50] <nhasian> cjwatson: when I try to debuild it says error: Unmet build dependencies: libncurses5w-dev
[16:52] <nhasian> ah I think it should be libncurses5-dev
[17:03] <cjwatson> nhasian: I gave you the right package name above
[17:04] <cjwatson> nhasian: libncursesw5-dev, not either of libncurses5w-dev or libncurses5-dev
[17:19] <nhasian> is this causing the fatal error when trying to debuild "dpkg-source: error: Version number suggests Ubuntu changes, but Maintainer: does not have Ubuntu address"
[17:27] <nhasian> I 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 time
[20:11] <nhasian> cjwatson: thanks to your help, I was finally able to publish the latest version of nnn to my launchpad PPA.
[20:19] <nhasian> I'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.
