| [16:20] <nullkit> how i can change Launchpad Id? | |
| [16:20] <Odd_Bloke> nullkit: You can do it from https://launchpad.net/~/+edit | |
| [16:22] <nullkit> Odd_Bloke: thanks | |
| [16:22] <Odd_Bloke> No problem! | |
| [17:21] <axino> how can I create an MP to merge https://code.launchpad.net/~axino/+git/matterircd-jdstrand/+ref/axino into https://code.launchpad.net/~jdstrand/+git/matterircd-jdstrand/+ref/master ? when I try, LP tells me that "lp:~axino/+git/matterircd-jdstrand is not mergeable into this repository" | |
| [17:32] <pappacena> It seems that https://code.launchpad.net/~jdstrand/+git/matterircd-jdstrand/+ref/master is not attached to a Launchpad project. Is it just a personal repository? If so, I think it's not possible to create a MP for that from another personal repository. | |
| [17:32] <pappacena> You should ask to target repository owner to create a project linked to that repository. Then, you will be able to create a MP. | |
| [17:38] <axino> pappacena: ok thanks | |
| [18:42] <heewa> Hi! I just registered a launchpad account (heewa-b), but I really would love to recover my 12 year old, completely unused (no activity), account (heewa). There's no way I have my email address from back then (either my first job, or my uni email). Any way of recovering or getting that username? | |
| [18:46] <pappacena> Hi, heewa . Since that old account doesn't have any activity, is it ok if I just deactivate it and free up the "heewa" username for you? | |
| [18:47] <heewa> @pappacena, Sure, thanks! | |
| [18:49] <pappacena> heewa: Done. You can now edit your profile and set your preferred username by visiting http://launchpad.net/~/+edit | |
| [19:02] <axino> pappacena: note that LP did tell me the following when I pushed my changes | |
| [19:02] <axino> remote: Create a merge proposal for 'axino' on Launchpad by visiting: | |
| [19:02] <axino> remote: https://code.launchpad.net/~axino/+git/matterircd-jdstrand/+ref/axino/+register-merge | |
| [19:02] <axino> pappacena: perhaps this could only be displayed if it's attached to a project ? | |
| [19:04] <pappacena> axino: It makes sense. The hint is not really valuable in this case. Do you mind opening a bug for that? https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+filebug | |
| [19:04] <axino> pappacena: I will | |
| [19:05] <pappacena> This hint on git push is a quite recent feature. We still have room for improvement there. | |
| [19:05] <pappacena> Thanks, axino ! | |
| [19:05] <axino> pappacena: indeed it is (and it's very good !) | |
| [19:08] <pappacena> ah, axino . In fact, the MP link to create a MP has as "Target repository" your own lp:~axino/+git/matterircd-jdstrand repository, right? | |
| [19:09] <axino> pappacena: yeah but I changed it to ~jdstrand | |
| [19:10] <pappacena> I guess opening a MP to your own repository works out fine. Launchpad only blocks you from opening a MP if the source is a personal repository and a target is *another* personal repository (not linked to a project). | |
| [19:13] <heewa> @pappacena, Renamed. Thanks for your help :) | |
| [19:13] <pappacena> Welcome, heewa ! | |
| [19:15] <axino> pappacena: ah I see, alright then | |
| [19:48] <kyrofa> Say I have two private PPAs: I have read access to PPA A, and write access to PPA B. Is that enough permission that I can request a sync from A to B? | |
| [19:54] <pappacena> kyrofa: it should be enough. | |
| [19:58] <kyrofa> I was a bit surprised that folks with read access can't visit the package details page, which made me worry | |
| [19:58] <kyrofa> But it's not easy to test | |
| [19:58] <kyrofa> Thanks for the info, pappacena | |
| [20:00] <sarnold> I don't understand the "read access but not package details access" -- is there an easy-to-understand intuitive reason for that? | |
| [20:01] <pappacena> You mean the "View package details" link on PPA's main page? Like this page: https://launchpad.net/~twom/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages? | |
| [20:01] <pappacena> I guess it's possible to see this page even if you are not logged in | |
| [20:02] <pappacena> Ah, for private PPAs, right? | |
| [20:02] <sarnold> oh is that the distinctin? yeah it probably was private ppas | |
| [20:03] <pappacena> I'm not sure if there is a reason for that, actually. Maybe wgran tknows the history behind it... | |
| [21:33] <kyrofa> sarnold, pappacena: yeah, private PPAs indeed | |
| [21:33] <kyrofa> The ability to see that page for non-private PPAs while not logged in is one of the reasons I'm confused :P | |
