[00:04] <cjwatson> Coming back online now, but appservers got a bit stuck (probably after massive packet loss between them and their database) and needed to be restarted, which is in progress
[00:22] <lifeless> cjwatson: were small packets unaffected?
[00:22] <cjwatson> I have no idea, sorry
[00:22] <cjwatson> I wasn't working on it directly, just running around doing communications at the edges
[00:23] <lifeless> cjwatson: its ok, it was a womp womp joke anyhow :P
[00:23] <cjwatson> oh :P
[00:23] <lifeless> "massive packet"
[00:23] <cjwatson> joke parser doesn't work after midnight
[00:24] <lifeless> I just got off 2 hours of straight video conf, so totally zoned myself.
[00:31] <cjwatson> Things seem mostly happier now, so I'm going to sleep
[03:15] <jik1> Just dropping in to ask if y'all are aware that launchpad seems to have been down for like the last half hour or so?
[03:15] <sarnold> jik1: yup, known issue, it's being worked on
[03:15] <sarnold> thanks
[03:16] <jik1> Status updates on @launchpadstatus on twitter might be nice then, please.
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> Hi. There are many questions by a user named snooper on Launchpad.net. They are exactly the same question with the same petulant tone. Can you please close a lot of them off (probably saving the newest) as duplicates. This will help keep the forum neat and concentrate support to one question rather than about 20. Cheers :-)
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> Here is the newest question for reference
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-docs/+question/688970
[18:55] <cjwatson> ActionParsnip: I've given them an official warning in that question.  Let us know if they ignore it.
[18:55] <cjwatson> There's no duplicate facility for questions, so I can't do exactly as you ask.
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> Cheers. He's getting really boring now
[18:55] <cjwatson> Yeah, I can see that.  Just like to give people at least a warning when they aren't actually spam
[18:56] <cjwatson> But if they ignore it I'll ban
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> Cheers
[21:09] <oerheks> hi
[21:10] <oerheks> i have an issue with 2 fact auth on launchpad, Error: The password is invalid ( not password but the 6 digit codes )
[21:32] <vmorris> hi all, LP noob here.. I would like to know if it's possible to apt install the deb packages listed in a build, or if i can create an PPA from an existing build
[21:33] <vmorris> specifically https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/237-3ubuntu10.34/+build/18651194
[21:35] <cjwatson> oerheks: Despite the domain name, login.launchpad.net isn't actually part of Launchpad.  You can email isd-support@canonical.com for help
[21:35] <oerheks> cjwatson, thank you
[21:37] <cjwatson> vmorris: You can't apt install directly from the build as such, though you can download the packages manually and then feed them to apt.  You can copy packages between archives (https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Copying), but copying from the Ubuntu primary archive requires using the "copy-package" tool from https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu-archive-tools.  But what problem are you ...
[21:37] <cjwatson> ... actually trying to solve here?
[21:38] <vmorris> i was asked to verify a fix in systemd here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/237-3ubuntu10.34
[21:38] <cjwatson> vmorris: And do you actually have an s390x machine?  (You may indeed do, but just checking ...)
[21:38] <vmorris> yes, i have a few s390x machines :D
[21:38] <cjwatson> vmorris: So it would be easiest to do it a different way.  Let me find you the docs
[21:39] <cjwatson> vmorris: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed
[21:39] <cjwatson> vmorris: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification
[21:39] <cjwatson> I assume you'll want the non-graphical alternatives there
[21:40] <vmorris> ah yeah, i tried this already but i'm not seeing the update for systemd i was expecting
[21:41] <vmorris> https://gist.github.com/vmorris/4570e6cdcc4851b3e7605821b25e4e53
[21:42] <vmorris> brb
[21:42] <cjwatson> ... ok
[21:42] <cjwatson> was just about to answer :)
[21:46] <vmorris> @cjwatson I figure I could download all the Deb files and install them manually, but I was hoping to have a more direct method
[21:46] <cjwatson> vmorris: It looks like verification has already been completed and the package has been released to -updates
[21:47] <cjwatson> (or a later version that incorporates the same changes, anyway)
[21:47] <cjwatson> vmorris: So if you wanted to belatedly follow up, you could do that by just upgrading to the current stuff in bionic-updates (which it sounds like you already have)
[21:47] <cjwatson> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/237-3ubuntu10.39 is the version that was released
[21:48] <vmorris> Oh! No I haven't added the updates yet 😁
[21:48] <cjwatson> Sometimes this happens when a proposed update is superseded by a security update
[21:48] <cjwatson> Ah yes, so you haven't
[21:48] <vmorris> Thanks! I'll pull it in this way
[21:48] <cjwatson> Yeah, in general -proposed exists on top of -updates
