[09:29] <santa_> good morning everyone
[09:29] <RikMills> santa_: hi
[09:29] <santa_> RikMills: 21.12.2 tarballs are out there
[09:30] <RikMills> they are, and building in the ppa
[09:30] <santa_> let me know about KA's behavior
[09:30] <santa_> are the changelogs properly managed?
[09:31] <RikMills> santa_: I had comment out 2 lines from ka_changelog.py to stop me stealing the trailer
[09:31] <santa_> which ones?
[09:32] <RikMills> 2 secs
[09:33] <RikMills> in def new_upstream_release(self, new_upstream_version, stability=None):
[09:33] <RikMills> the very final:
[09:33] <RikMills> maintainer_str = "%s <%s>" % get_maintainer()
[09:34] <RikMills> ummm ^ ignore that wrong paste
[09:35] <RikMills> the final:
[09:35] <RikMills> #self.set_author(maintainer_str)
[09:35] <RikMills> #self.set_date(time.strftime('%a, %d %b %Y %X %z'))
[09:35] <RikMills> commented like that ^
[09:35] <RikMills> a very direct hack to stop the trailer you set getting changed
[09:36] <RikMills> there will obviously be a much better way
[09:38] <santa_> actually
[09:38] <santa_> that seems like the solution :|
[09:39] <santa_> we are using dch above
[09:39] <RikMills> in that case maybe make those lines conditional on a gbp-nr argument?
[09:40] <santa_> no no
[09:41] <santa_> what happens there is that those lines were meant as a "final thing" if that could be easily managed with python-debian 
[09:42] <santa_> but it's managed with dch
[09:42] <santa_> self.set_author(maintainer_str)
[09:42] <santa_> ↑ at least this line must be commented out
[09:43] <santa_> if you have another set of clones, would you mind to try commenting out ONLY:
[09:43] <santa_> self.set_author(maintainer_str)
[09:43] <santa_> ?
[09:44] <RikMills> I don't have another, but I can fudge that
[09:44] <santa_> just trying with one package would be enough
[09:45] <RikMills> I am, rolling back git a bit
[09:49] <RikMills> santa_: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/cjVFZSQmjy/
[09:50] <santa_> so we have to comment out both
[09:50] <santa_> ok, so please
[09:50] <RikMills> dpends if you want up update the trailer date of not
[09:50] <santa_> git pull in you KA clone
[09:51] <santa_> but dch already updates the trailer afaics
[09:51] <RikMills> don't have one. this is installed KA
[09:52] <santa_> ok, but you can confirm commenting out both lines works properly, right?
[09:53] <RikMills> santa_: https://git.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/+git/kate/commit/?h=kubuntu_jammy_staging&id=07d6415edaceff737c4feb92966b82f287393f59
[09:53] <santa_> ahhh
[09:54] <santa_> I think I know what's missing then
[10:08] <santa_> hmm
[10:08] <santa_> wihtout commenting out anything is working fine here :|
[10:08] <santa_> * without
[10:09] <RikMills> it would work for you. if I did it I would steal the trailer
[10:10] <santa_> akonadi (4:21.12.2-0ubuntu1) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
[10:10] <santa_>   [ José Manuel Santamaría Lema ]
[10:10] <santa_>   * Update debian/watch
[10:10] <santa_>   * Update upstream signing key
[10:10] <santa_>   [ Other Person ]
[10:10] <santa_>   * New upstream release (21.12.2)
[10:10] <santa_>  -- Other Person <other@person.com>  Tue, 01 Feb 2022 10:07:09 +0000
[10:11] <santa_> ↑ this would be the result for me impersonating Other Person
[10:11] <santa_> (please don't take into account the lack of blank lines, that was just the paste)
[10:13] <santa_> RikMills: I mean, the bahavior is correct if it "steals" the trailer
[10:13] <RikMills> santa_: oh, I agree
[10:13] <RikMills> but sometimes like here we may not want to
[10:13] <santa_> as long as there is a [ José Manuel Santamaría Lema ] above my changes
[10:15] <santa_> re: "but sometimes like here we may not want to" I think in this case the right thing to do would be putting your name in the trailer
[10:16] <RikMills> I can change that before I upload to the archive if you like
[10:19] <santa_> there is a check-and-fix/update-maint-trailer in KA...
[10:20] <santa_> which is very shoddy and needs to be fixed before using XD
[10:21] <RikMills> I was just going to do-all sed it :P
[10:21]  * RikMills hides
[10:22] <santa_> XDD
[13:23] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
