[09:09] <mantiena> SteveA: hi
[09:30] <mantiena> doko: hi
[09:49] <clsk> Are there plans to add support for tasks? Or to mark bugs as tasks instead of simple bugs?
=== RAOF_ is now known as RAOF
[09:55] <wgrant> clsk: What's the difference?
[09:56] <clsk> well a bug is a problem in the software. A task is something that needs to be done (not necessarily a fix to something).
[10:05] <SteveA> mantiena: hi
[10:14] <bostik> hi all
[10:25] * mtaylor is away: I'm not here right now
[10:25] <mantiena> hi bostik
[10:56] <emgent> morning
[12:03] <Hobbsee> how do i show builds of "all states", but in reverse chronological order (newest first) of https://edge.launchpad.net/+builds/rothera/+history?build_text=&build_state=built ?
[12:03] * Hobbsee also wonders why rothera fell over again
[12:04] <Hobbsee> i wish i could see who'd made the status change, or something
=== rraphink is now known as raphink
[12:37] <wgrant> Hobbsee: I was wondering that myself earlier, and opened a Soyuz +filebug, but YouTube crashed Firefox.
[12:37] <wgrant> And then forgot about it.
[12:39] <Hobbsee> wgrant: i filed it earlier, was just wondering if there was a workaround
[12:40] <wgrant> Ah. I don't believe so.
[12:40] <wgrant> One size fits all.
[12:40] <Hobbsee> darn.
[13:03] <glatzor> hello danilos, will there be some rosetta-devs at uds prague?
[13:04] <danilos> glatzor: hi, not that I know of
[13:04] <danilos> glatzor: check with jtv (once he's around), though

[13:40] <pgquiles__> PPA question: is it possible to copy packages from the official distribution (not from a PPA) to my PPA? how?
[13:41] <jamesh> don't know.
[13:42] <Hobbsee> don't think so
[13:42] <jamesh> is this to do a rebuild for a different release?
[13:42] <Hobbsee> why would you?
[13:42] <Hobbsee> ah yes, for a backport
[13:42] <pgquiles__> Hobbsee: for example to build a hardy package for gutsy
[13:43] <Hobbsee> it would have to be rebuilt anyway, just for the older deps
[13:43] <Hobbsee> but, i don't think so
[13:43] <pgquiles__> btw, it seems that gutsy-backports is not available to the PPA builders, I just got a build failure due to tcl8.5 available in gutsy-backports but the PPA autobuilder says it's not available
[13:44] <Hobbsee> yes, you can only build for the release.
[13:44] <Hobbsee> not backports, not updates.
[13:46] <pgquiles__> and given that I cannot copy from official distribution to PPA, I need to download the source, debuild, etc :-/
[13:47] <wgrant> Or request a backport...
[13:49] <pgquiles__> wgrant: there is a backport but the PPA builders cannot access -backports packages
[13:52] <wgrant> pgquiles__: I meant an official backport.
[13:52] <wgrant> As official as backports are.
[14:14] <gnomefreak> build it for gutsy see if it works in gutsy than worry about backporting it as in change the version to match backports and change target spin and poof
[14:22] <pgquiles__> wgrant: if you mean a package in gutsy-backports, that's exactly what I meant when I said "there is a backport"
[14:50] <stdin> pgquiles__: it's a pain, but yes, you have to apt-get source it, add something like ~ppa1 to the release and build it on your PPA
[14:52] <stdin> and make sure your package are set to build from the PPA version (as it will be lower than the one in -backports)

[16:17] <mohbana> hi guys
[16:17] <Hobbsee> heya
[16:17] <mohbana> i am just wondering can you integrate launchpad with eclipse, like as in use the myln task thing for bugzilla
[16:23] <mohbana> hi did anyone get my emssage?
[16:24] <Hobbsee> yes, but i suspect no one knows
[16:24] <Hobbsee> launchpad doesn't really have api's - but bzr might
[16:29] <beuno> bzr does
[16:29] <beuno> there is a bzr plugin for eclipse
[16:30] <beuno> but I don't think it does what mohbana wants :)
[16:32] <mohbana> somethng like this; http://www.eclipse.org/mylyn/images/mylyn-2.0.png
[16:37] <patrys> hi, anyone knows how to properly escalate launchpad questions?
[16:38] <patrys> I mean get "launchpad itself" questions answered
[16:41] <Hobbsee> patrys: poke kiko or SteveA
[16:41] <jamesh> what's the question?
[16:42] <patrys> two regarding PLD Linux migration
[16:43] <patrys> we want to fully migrate to LP but are still waiting for 1) bugzilla import 2) having distroseries configured
[16:44] <mohbana> anyone?
[16:44] <jamesh> I need to pass on some info to the others for the bugzilla migration bits
[16:44] <patrys> https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/29546 is the bugzilla related one
[16:44] <beuno> mohbana, you'll need to wait for LP to rollout an API to get something like that done
[16:44] <patrys> and https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/29548 for distroseries
[16:45] <jamesh> I'm not sure how well we'd handle distros with different package naming though
[16:45] <mohbana> beuno: anytime soon?
[16:45] <patrys> jamesh: or distros that use rpm packages and thus can't upload any sources :)
[16:46] <jamesh> mohbana: there is work underway to add the kind of web services needed to implement that kind of thing.
[16:46] <beuno> mohbana, I don't really know when :)
[16:46] <jamesh> patrys: right. The package selection for distro bugs is linked to the records of the packages published for the distro
[16:47] <patrys> jamesh: a simple option "we don't use LP for releases, allow any package names" would be enough
[16:48] <patrys> jamesh: we had to patch apport not to include package names for that reason
[16:48] <jamesh> I've only ever imported one distribution into LP, and that was Ubuntu
[16:49] <patrys> jamesh: and that's the distro LP was built around :)
[16:50] <jamesh> well, the distro side of Launchpad was certainly modeled around Ubuntu
[16:50] <jamesh> but we've had support for upstream projects since day one.
[16:51] <patrys> I really like lunchpad (well, I hate the code tab but that's because it's often the only way people release)
[16:51] <patrys> so we'll gladly serve as guinea pigs here
=== salgado is now known as salgado-lunch
[17:02] <patrys> the question remains, how do I reach someone with enough power to help with the requests?
[17:03] <patrys> I don't think reposting same questions over and over again is a good idea

[22:52] <Arby> I'm attempting to upload packages to my ppa without success,
[22:52] <Arby> I keep getting MD5 sum of uploaded file does not match existing file in archive
[22:53] <Arby> any suggestions what I might be doing wrong
[22:54] <Arby> the command I used was
[22:54] <Arby> dput my-ppa koffice_1.6.3-5ubuntu1~ppa1_source.changes
[22:55] <wgrant> Arby: Make sure you're not uploading a different orig.tar.gz to the one in Ubuntu, if it has the same version.
[22:56] <Arby> the orig.tar.gz I have is koffice_1.6.3.orig.tar.gz
[22:56] <Arby> is that wrong?
[22:57] <wgrant> If it has a different md5sum, yes.
[22:58] <Arby> ok thanks
