| rbasak | Hello! I'd like to see udevbot resurrected to manage the topic in #ubuntu-devel. Is that something an existing volunteer could trivially do? | 13:00 |
|---|---|---|
| rbasak | I found https://code.launchpad.net/~krytarik/ubuntu-bots/+git/ubuntu-bots - looks like it's a supybot plugin. | 13:01 |
| rbasak | Or do I need to make my own arrangements to run a bot for that? | 13:01 |
| rbasak | It looks like this bot never moved over from Freenode. But some of us (at Canonical) are trying to reboot the patch pilot programme, and the bot was part of the coordination for that via the #ubuntu-devel topic. | 13:02 |
| Eickmeyer | rbasak: Hi! Looks like krytarik would have more information on that, and he probably won't be available for a few hours, unless he completely surprises me. | 14:22 |
| Eickmeyer | (He's been known to do that) | 14:23 |
| teward | rbasak: i could take a stab at it if krytarik cant do it (see my pokes in -devel of arraybolt) | 14:32 |
| Eickmeyer | teward: Sounds like a great backup plan, but krytarik needs to be awake first to have first crack as to not re-invent the wheel. | 14:37 |
| teward | yup | 14:37 |
| teward | just making a note | 14:37 |
| Eickmeyer | Sure | 14:37 |
| teward | *hunts down coffee* | 14:37 |
| genii | heh | 14:37 |
| beaver | hi, | 15:44 |
| beaver | why can't I join the #ubuntu channel anymore? | 15:45 |
| beaver | because I changed my pseudonym ? | 15:45 |
| beaver | :\ | 15:47 |
| beaver | 12/04/23 17:49:12 -!- Irssi: #ubuntu: Total of 0 nicks [0 ops, 0 halfops, 0 voices, 0 normal] | 15:49 |
| tomreyn | <tomreyn> hi. trying again: could you please not do these apparently unneccessary > daily nickname changes? | 15:51 |
| tomreyn | <beaver> bye. | 15:51 |
| tomreyn | ^ a quote from our conversation leading to this result | 15:51 |
| beaver | I changed my nickname once this week. What is the problem ? | 15:52 |
| tomreyn | it is more often, i would think, i feel like it's at least daily | 15:52 |
| tomreyn | why do you do it at all, is this a presence indicator? | 15:53 |
| beaver | no ! | 15:53 |
| beaver | I don't change my nickname every day | 15:53 |
| beaver | please provide me the logs | 15:54 |
| tomreyn | it was multiple times ths week | 15:54 |
| beaver | ?? | 15:54 |
| beaver | can I see the logs with the dates? please | 15:54 |
| tomreyn | i'll write it down for you, give me a minute | 15:57 |
| beaver | thank you | 15:57 |
| tomreyn | 2023-04-12 16:32 UTC pong -> beaver, 2023-04-10 18:11 beaver -> pong, 2023-04-10 05:13 UTC pong_ -> beaver, 2023-04-09 14:52 pong_ -> beaver | 16:00 |
| tomreyn | those are all UTC, even though its doesn'T say | 16:00 |
| tomreyn | none of these happened directly after a reconnect or connect | 16:00 |
| tomreyn | so the question of why you / your client does it remains | 16:01 |
| beaver | I use Tor, it is normal for pong_ to appear sometimes. My cloak is beaver@user/pong | 16:01 |
| beaver | i use beaver and pong | 16:01 |
| beaver | it's forbidden ? | 16:01 |
| tomreyn | do you use sasl login? | 16:01 |
| tomreyn | that should prevent you changing nicknames after joining channels | 16:02 |
| beaver | yes, but what is the problem? | 16:02 |
| beaver | it's not systematic | 16:02 |
| beaver | if my client it ping timeout, it is possible that my client it uses pong_ | 16:03 |
| beaver | and pong and my second nickname (see my cloak) | 16:03 |
| tomreyn | as i just said, it happens out of nowhere, not related to channel joins or parts | 16:03 |
| tomreyn | the issue with how it's happening now: it adds 'spammy' nickname changes / channel activity. so it's generally preferred if you could prevent it. i *think* sasl logins would prevent it for tor. | 16:04 |
| beaver | olala … Bye thank you | 16:05 |
| tomreyn | for reconnects, you can just configure your client to first do any renaming / nick regaining, and only then join channels | 16:05 |
| tomreyn | but this doesn't seem to be the issue | 16:05 |
| teward | tomreyn: they didn't see the last two msgs they left ;) | 16:39 |
| tomreyn | i noted since, thanks teward | 16:50 |
| krytarik | rbasak, teward, Eickmeyer: Wrt the UdevTopic plugin, 1.) it's actually at <https://git.launchpad.net/~krytarik/ubuntu-bots/+git/udevbot>, and 2.) I think I've suggested before to just run it on an existing ubottu instance this time (in this case really ubottu proper, since it's what is in the channel already), because unlike how it was done previously the bot doesn't need to be opped all the ... | 17:30 |
| krytarik | ... time anymore and running a dedicated bot just for this plugin seems a bit overkill - and the maintainer of ubottu is Unit193, who should be up and around soon too. :P | 17:31 |
| teward | krytarik: makes sense to me. If Unit193 doesn't incorporate it into the ubottu or ubots then just prod me, always happy to run stuff if necessary. | 17:39 |
| teward | *returns to the shadows* | 17:39 |
| rbasak | Thanks! | 18:42 |
| rbasak | I'm happy whichever way. I'd just like "@pilot in" and "@pilot out" to work again to help with our efforts to try to resurrect the patch pilot programme. | 18:42 |
| Unit193 | Sounds like I'm getting told to load that into ubottu, works for me. | 20:53 |
| krytarik | Unit193: But that also requires +t being added to its flags on the channel. | 20:57 |
| krytarik | rbasak: Same to you, since you seem to be able to give flags there. | 21:08 |
