[16:20] <nullkit> how i can change Launchpad Id?
[16:20] <Odd_Bloke> nullkit: You can do it from https://launchpad.net/~/+edit
[16:22] <nullkit> Odd_Bloke: thanks
[16:22] <Odd_Bloke> No problem!
[17:21] <axino> how can I create an MP to merge https://code.launchpad.net/~axino/+git/matterircd-jdstrand/+ref/axino into https://code.launchpad.net/~jdstrand/+git/matterircd-jdstrand/+ref/master ? when I try, LP tells me that "lp:~axino/+git/matterircd-jdstrand is not mergeable into this repository"
[17:32] <pappacena> It seems that https://code.launchpad.net/~jdstrand/+git/matterircd-jdstrand/+ref/master is not attached to a Launchpad project. Is it just a personal repository? If so, I think it's not possible to create a MP for that from another personal repository.
[17:32] <pappacena> You should ask to target repository owner to create a project linked to that repository. Then, you will be able to create a MP.
[17:38] <axino> pappacena: ok thanks
[18:42] <heewa> Hi! I just registered a launchpad account (heewa-b), but I really would love to recover my 12 year old, completely unused (no activity), account (heewa). There's no way I have my email address from back then (either my first job, or my uni email). Any way of recovering or getting that username?
[18:46] <pappacena> Hi, heewa . Since that old account doesn't have any activity, is it ok if I just deactivate it and free up the "heewa" username for you?
[18:47] <heewa> @pappacena, Sure, thanks!
[18:49] <pappacena> heewa: Done. You can now edit your profile and set your preferred username by visiting http://launchpad.net/~/+edit
[19:02] <axino> pappacena: note that LP did tell me the following when I pushed my changes
[19:02] <axino> remote: Create a merge proposal for 'axino' on Launchpad by visiting:
[19:02] <axino> remote:       https://code.launchpad.net/~axino/+git/matterircd-jdstrand/+ref/axino/+register-merge
[19:02] <axino> pappacena: perhaps this could only be displayed if it's attached to a project ?
[19:04] <pappacena> axino: It makes sense. The hint is not really valuable in this case. Do you mind opening a bug for that? https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+filebug
[19:04] <axino> pappacena: I will
[19:05] <pappacena> This hint on git push is a quite recent feature. We still have room for improvement there.
[19:05] <pappacena> Thanks, axino !
[19:05] <axino> pappacena: indeed it is (and it's very good !)
[19:08] <pappacena> ah, axino . In fact, the MP link to create a MP has as "Target repository" your own lp:~axino/+git/matterircd-jdstrand repository, right?
[19:09] <axino> pappacena: yeah but I changed it to ~jdstrand
[19:10] <pappacena> I guess opening a MP to your own repository works out fine. Launchpad only blocks you from opening a MP if the source is a personal repository and a target is *another* personal repository (not linked to a project).
[19:13] <heewa> @pappacena, Renamed. Thanks for your help :)
[19:13] <pappacena> Welcome, heewa !
[19:15] <axino> pappacena: ah I see, alright then
[19:48] <kyrofa> Say I have two private PPAs: I have read access to PPA A, and write access to PPA B. Is that enough permission that I can request a sync from A to B?
[19:54] <pappacena> kyrofa: it should be enough.
[19:58] <kyrofa> I was a bit surprised that folks with read access can't visit the package details page, which made me worry
[19:58] <kyrofa> But it's not easy to test
[19:58] <kyrofa> Thanks for the info, pappacena
[20:00] <sarnold> I don't understand the "read access but not package details access" -- is there an easy-to-understand intuitive reason for that?
[20:01] <pappacena> You mean the "View package details" link on PPA's main page? Like this page: https://launchpad.net/~twom/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages?
[20:01] <pappacena> I guess it's possible to see this page even if you are not logged in
[20:02] <pappacena> Ah, for private PPAs, right?
[20:02] <sarnold> oh is that the distinctin? yeah it probably was private ppas
[20:03] <pappacena> I'm not sure if there is a reason for that, actually. Maybe wgran tknows the history behind it...
[21:33] <kyrofa> sarnold, pappacena: yeah, private PPAs indeed
[21:33] <kyrofa> The ability to see that page for non-private PPAs while not logged in is one of the reasons I'm confused :P
