[04:08] <A_Person> I need help.
[04:09] <A_Person> How do I install packages from a PPA?
[04:10] <tsimpson> A_Person: it tells you on the PPA page, under "Adding this PPA to your system"
[04:11] <A_Person> so i just have to access it from the dash home?
[04:13] <tsimpson> you go into your package manager and add the source, the one starting with "ppa:"
[04:14] <tsimpson> or use the command-line tool "apt-add-repository"
[04:17] <A_Person> ok, thanks

[16:36]  * andol keeps getting timeout errors when trying to access https://launchpad.net/~username. https://bugs.launchpad.net/~username and https://answers.launchpad.net/~username on the other hand seem to respond nicely.
[16:36] <KNRO_> hello, I have code imported from Sourceforge subversion, however, the URL for the repo changed, is there anyway I can update the URL for the import?
[16:42] <devfil> hi guys, looks like I can't open any ~ profile (timeout error) since days
[16:42] <devfil> (for example: https://launchpad.net/~d.filoni)
[16:43] <KNRO_> devfil: I just opened that page fine
[16:44] <devfil> looks like I can't
[16:45] <devfil> this applies to all profiles, I thought it was a temporany error
[16:45]  * andol seem to be experiencing the same problem as devfil 
[16:45] <KNRO_> looks like internet/DNS issue from your ISP
[16:46] <devfil> I get 503
[16:46] <andol> ...and at least in my case the "Timeout error" is a page served by launchpad
[16:46] <devfil> service unavailable (chromium network inspector)
[16:47] <devfil> I can open bugs, code, etc...
[16:48] <devfil> andol: I get that page too
[16:49] <andol> devfil: Yepp, {bugs,code,etc}.lauchpad.net/~username works fine for me as well.
[16:53] <andol> KNRO_, devfil: Where/are you logged into Launchpad? Because for me that Timeout error only seem to occur while I am logged in. Having logged out it works fine to access the user profiles.
[16:54] <andol> I guess the timeout is triggered while trying to lookup some information only availible for logged in users.
[16:54]  * devfil checks incognito mode
[16:55] <devfil> andol: you're right
[23:59] <yofel> Hi, can it be that the janitor is down at the moment?
[23:59] <yofel> https://launchpad.net/~scribus/+archive/ppa/+packages uses     7.3 GiB (100.00%) of 2.0 GiB which is really not normal
[23:59] <jonrafkind> I have the same issue
