[06:06] <alkisg> Hi, is it possible to change the description of a ppa (https://launchpad.net/~ts.sch.gr/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+edit) without changing the Release Label?
[06:06] <alkisg> Because I think both are updated at the same time, which results in this apt warning, which can be very confusing to inexperienced users:
[06:06] <alkisg> E: Repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/ts.sch.gr/ppa/ubuntu focal InRelease' changed its 'Label' value from 'Αποθετήριο Τεχνικής Στήριξης ΣΕΠΕΗΥ' to 'Αποθετήριο ενημερώσεων ΣΕΠΕΗΥ'
[11:22] <cjwatson> alkisg: The Label field is always taken from the PPA's *display name*, but the *description* is separate and you can change that freely
[12:17] <alkisg> cjwatson: oh I'm sorry I didn't express myself properly. I meant that I want to change the PPA "display name" without affecting the "Label" field (as it's causing apt warnings), which I guess you already answered that it can't be done...
[12:18] <cjwatson> alkisg: It cannot, no
[12:18] <alkisg> There's a "PPA description" there (https://launchpad.net/~ts.sch.gr/+archive/ubuntu/ppa) and a Description there (http://ppa.launchpad.net/ts.sch.gr/ppa/ubuntu/dists/focal/Release), but I didn't mean any of them, I meant the display name
[12:20] <alkisg> Thank you once more :)
[12:20] <cjwatson> https://git.launchpad.net/launchpad/tree/lib/lp/archivepublisher/publishing.py#n1012 is fairly straightforward
[13:35] <alkisg> If I put appstream metadata in my PPA packages, they'll still not show up in `gnome-software` due to launchpad not exporting metadata, right?
[13:35] <alkisg> Are there any plans to support appstream metadata in launchpad?
[15:18] <cjwatson> alkisg: https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1574948, but it's not currently planned
[15:18] <ubot5> Ubuntu bug 1574948 in Launchpad itself "PPAs: no appstream-generator / dep11 data" [Low,Triaged]
[15:19] <cjwatson> (I don't disagree with the suggestions there though)
[18:01] <alkisg> Merci! :)
