[05:58] <Hobbsee> can nominations for bugs be removed?
[05:59] <Hobbsee> as in, completely from the page?
[06:01] <Hobbsee> errrr....wtf?
[06:01] <Hobbsee> Please explain the intrepid task list there? https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/88746
[06:01] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 88746 in linux "ehci_hcd module causes I/O errors in USB 2.0 devices" [High,Confirmed]
[06:04] <Hobbsee> so approving a task, hitting stop before it goes thru, and then declining a task will bring up a box for the task, as well as saying it's declined. That's clever..
[06:09] <Hobbsee> And now i think i just broke launcphad.
[06:09] <Hobbsee> 40 seconds and counting...where's my oops?
[06:09] <Hobbsee> Error ID: OOPS-1051EC28
[06:09] <Hobbsee> there we are.

[08:47] <soc> hi
[08:47] <soc> i registered a ssh key in launchpad, but bzr launchpad-login still says "The user soc has not registered any SSH keys with Launchpad."
[08:47] <soc> can someone help me?
[08:48] <thumper> soc: what is your lp id?
[08:51] <thumper> soc: https://launchpad.net/~soc shows that soc isn't a validated user
[08:54] <soc> mhh, my home is ~soc-krg-nw, altough in the top right it only shows me soc
[08:55] <thumper> soc: so what did you use for launchpad-login?
[08:55] <soc> weird ...
[08:55] <thumper> soc: use `bzr launchpad-login soc-krg-nw`
[08:55] <soc> bzr launchpad-login soc-krg-nw works now ... i tried it before, but it said that this user didn't exist or something
[08:55] <soc> ok, it looks like it works ...
[08:55] <thumper> typo maybe?
[08:55] <soc> thanks :-)
[08:56] <thumper> np
[08:56] <soc> that could be ...
[08:56] <soc> when i have question regarding packaging, what channel would be appropriate?
[08:56] <thumper> as in packing using launchpad for ubuntu?
[08:57] <thumper> or packaging in general
[08:57] <soc> yes ...
[08:57] <thumper> here is a good place, but I'm not a good person to answer :)
[08:57] <soc> i don't really undertsand, how i can upload my source to launchpad to build it there
[08:57] <thumper> soc: does it say anything at http://help.launchpad.net ?
[08:58] <soc> it only suggests something with dput ... but i'm not really sure, it that does the same thing ...
[08:58] <thumper> soc: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA
[08:59] <thumper> ?
[08:59] <soc> weird ... so even if i have my source code on launchpad, i have to upload the source ...
[08:59] <thumper> soc: I know some of the theory, but I haven't used it myself
[09:00] <thumper> soc: yes, right now the build process doesn't use branches itself
[09:00] <thumper> soc: that work is underway
[09:01] * thumper goes to put the laptop down
[09:01] <soc> ah ok ...
[09:01] <soc> that explains a whole lot i didn't undertsand
[10:22] <oojah> ls
[10:22] <oojah> Damn, I hate that.
[10:23] <oojah> Anyway, to distract your attention away from my mistake, I have a question.
[10:24] <oojah> I'm looking at PPAs and haven't been able to find any guidelines on how to specify versions for different distribution versions.
[10:25] <oojah> https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#Versioning <- this suggests using myapp_1.0-2~ppa1 as the version.
[10:25] <oojah> Can I just put -intrepid -hardy or whatever on the end?
[10:42] <mdke> oojah: the people in #ubuntu-motu are probably the best to answer your question
[10:44] <persia> Usually people there send people here for PPA stuff, especially PPA versioning.
[10:44] <persia> Where PPAs match the archive, #ubuntu-motu is indeed a good resource. Where it's not the same, it's not so much.
[10:45] <mdke> well, it's likely to be better than here to explain the principles of versioning, on the basis that Launchpad developers don't work at the weekends
[10:49] <persia> quite possibly.
[10:52] <oojah> Ok, well I'm in no rush.
[10:53] <oojah> I'll pop over to #ubuntu-motu in a bit and see what they say. If not, then a response on Monday is no bother.
[10:53] <oojah> Thanks
[10:55] <persia> oojah, The quick answer is that there aren't any rules, other than that each newer release should have a newer version number according to dpkg compare-versions.
[10:55] <persia> (mind you, that's probably not directly helpful)
[10:57] <oojah> persia: Yeah, that sounds about my understanding.
[11:18] <oojah> Ah, there we go. I've found an answer from bigjools in answers.l.n so I reckon that'll be about as legit as I can get. The answer is to append ~intrepid1 ~hardy1.

[18:13] <beuno> fta, just file a question requesting it
[18:14] <fta> beuno, ok, i thought it was possible using the interface. thanks
[18:30] <fta> done

[18:41] <fta> hm, i was about to file new questions to add some google bug trackers, but i see that bug 78395 already exists for that.. for ~2 years :(

[22:22] <fta> how do i get a project license reviewed?
[22:41] <spm> fta: Would suggest that asking via answers.launchpad.net would be appropriate
[22:43] <fta> spm, ok, thanks. I should really stop asking questions here, the answer is always to file the question on lp ;)
[22:55] <spm> fta: nah, don't stop asking questions here; I'd suggest you're asking the deeper questions that require a more... considered answer than IRC and the vagaries of whomever is online at the time, will provide
[22:56] <fta> statik, i just saw you created https://edge.launchpad.net/v8 a while ago. I've made so work in https://edge.launchpad.net/chromium-v8, part of https://edge.launchpad.net/chromium-project, so now there a dupe :(
[22:56] <fta> spm, well, hmm, ok
[22:58] <spm> fta: I may not be able to help with the questions ;-) - but the dupe projects I can. Did you want me to remove your dupe?
[23:00] <fta> spm, well, i was thinking of removing the old one, mine as content associated to it
[23:00] <fta> spm, problem is the old one have branches too, yet older ones
[23:02] <spm> fta: hmm. tricky.
[23:04] <fta> indeed.
[23:04] <fta> asac wanted all the chromium related project to be named chromium-* so here i am.
[23:04] <fta> now i'm unsure
[23:05] <fta> projectS
[23:07] <spm> IMHO? Stick with what you've got for the time being then. You can always work out the details/differences at a later stage.
