[20:41] <tomreyn> i'm missing https://launchpad.net/bugs/1981139 - which used to exist. is there a way to find out what happened to it?
[20:41] <tomreyn> normally, when bugs vanish, i assume security impact, but i would not expec this here.
[20:47] <sarnold> it's completely gone for me too, so not just a magic "security" button. probably drive-by vandalism, that happens from time to time. I think going through the "ask a question about launchpad" thing is probably the route to go
[21:54] <cjwatson> tomreyn: I can't see it either, so we'd have to ask IS.  You could cut out the middle-person and try #canonical-sysadmin
[21:55] <tomreyn> thanks you two
[22:59] <Delemas> I copied a package from a different repository which didn't work out. I deleted it. The problem is deleting it didn't delete the original tar for it. I'm getting errors copying the right package. How can I purge 7zip_22.00+dfsg.orig.tar.xz from the deleted package from my PPA? I keep getting errors for the source tar already exists in destination archive with different contents.
[23:04] <sarnold> I think a given tarball name and hash is fixed per ppa -- I think the usual solution is to upload the tarball with a different compression algorithm (and thus filename)
[23:08] <cjwatson> Or bump the upstream version number.
[23:08] <cjwatson> "upstream", which would include changing +dfsg to +dfsg1 or whatever
[23:09] <cjwatson> It is indeed, by design, never possible to replace a given file name in a Launchpad-managed archive with a file with the same name but different contents.
[23:10] <cjwatson> But changing the file name is always possible.
