User1: Hi, here's a small side-project I did to improve the LP experience: https://github.com/zen/lphelper FF extension is here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/launchpad-helper/?src=search while Chrome extension here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/launchpad-helper/kjelakmoldahcakikjnfebiolcliigah
User2: User1 Nice. Did you consider submitting a patch to Launchpad itself, so everyone can benefit?
User1: You mean the JS code of Launchpad site?
User2: Right.
User2: Launchpad's completely open source, so you don't need to have third-party extensions!
User1: Well, it was quickly needed for our mgmt for launchpad.net so extension was a good solution
User1: I'll try to deliver this to Launchpad source in some time, I'm quite busy now :)
User2: Yep, an extension's a good short-term solution. But it's interesting functionality in general, so it would be nice to have something like it for everyone.
* wgrant changed the topic of #launchpad to: Offline for a few minutes at 10:00 UTC for a DB server upgrade | Launchpad is an open source project: https://dev.launchpad.net/ | This channel is logged: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ | User Guide: https://help.launchpad.net/ | Support: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad
User2: We're replacing our master database server in 15 minutes. May be offline for a few minutes.
User3: User2 Will PPA builds started between now and then complete properly?
User2: User3 Yes, slaves are autonomous once the build has started.
User2: But their results won't be retrieved until we bring things back up.
User3: Great. :)
User4: you were not paying attention when creating the merge proposal and selected the wrong target (the default target is the default development focus branch of a project)
User4: you pushed to the wrong place. you did not push under the upstream project. you pushed to ubuntu
User4: you will need to submit a new MP with the correct target
User4: just as cyphermox said in review of the MP
User4: bzr: ERROR: Permission denied: "~tj/grub-installer/ubuntu/lp1354730/": : Cannot create branch at '/~tj/grub-installer/ubuntu/lp1354730'
User4: you wanted to drop the "ubuntu" out of that push location
User4: ie, bzr push lp:~tj/grub-installer/lp1354730
User4: when creating an MP, there is a section at the top of the page, which lets you specify the target branch you want to propose to, as well
User4: yes, for upstream projects
User4: eh? bzr push doesn't create merge proposals automatically
User4: no
User4: maybe LP got some feature that does it for Ubuntu branches, but that must be annoying for sponsors if it does
User4: all --fixes does is add metadata to the commit
User5: I can't seem to figure out how to search for a string among ALL revisions of ALL files in my repo.
User5: Does anyone have the magic command?
User4: there is no magic command to do that
User6: bzr grep?
User4: oh bzr grep -r 0..last foo?
User4: prepare to be wait
User6: Hey, I didn't say anything about speed
User4: why does grep not have "find" and "search" as aliases?
User6: It's a UNIX thing -- I want to find text in files, I'll use grep
User4: i've never seen "grep" as a replacement for the "search" or "find" menu item in a unix-specific app :)
User6: UNIX command line thing
User4: yes sure, find does something as a terminal command
User5: lol, I crashed bzr-grep.
User6: User4 I've just checked into a terminal after spending 23 hours in airport terminals/plane, be nice. :-P
User4: but as for verb commands to bzr, i would think search/find are appropriate aliases to grep
User4: User6 despite having 6+ inches of show on the ground where they should not be (here), i am being nice :)
User6: I don't have bzr installed on this machine.
User5: bzr-grep crashes if you try to use the "A..B" format for revisions, it only does single revisions.
User5: Or something.
User5: Looks like it was fixed for an ubuntu package, but the fix isn't in the launchpad repo, and I'm not on ubuntu.  Wee.
User7: https://code.launchpad.net/~andrewsomething/bzr-grep/bzr2.6compat/+merge/126596 possibly
User5: Yeah I just saw that branch.
User5: It works, woot.
User5: The regular bzr-grep launchpad hasn't been updated since 2010, when did bzr 2.6 come out? = )
User7: http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/bzr.dev/en/release-notes/bzr-2.6.html
User7: Perhaps that MP needed to be re-proposed against bzr core and never was?
User4: bzr-grep is a separate thing?
User7: Used to be
User5: I think it should be bundled in bzrtools.
User7: It's in bzr core as of 2.6
User5: Wat?  I guess when searching online that was not made obvious, so I installed a bzr-grep plugin (incompatible with 2.6) even though I have 2.6. =\
User7: And the bzr-grep package was removed from Ubuntu
User7: Yeah, you probably want to remove that
User7: Unless you're on Ubuntu 12.04
User7: Oh you said you weren't on Ubuntu
User5: That's really stupid of me, I did look for a command called "bzr-grep" on my PATH and didn't find anything. =\  Stupid me + leftover internets of yesteryear.
User7: Ah, no hyphenated forms for bzr commands
User4: heh, bloody git
User7: Well to be fair the hyphenated forms for git commands are only available nowadays if you fiddle $PATH ...
User4: well, i still find the idea of a plug-in system based upon the concept of "name a random script/binary as foo-command" pretty appalling :)
User4: makes the engineer in me cry :)
User5: All that to find out that the string I was looking for was probably not in a versioned file. =\
User4: is that not a question for #ubuntu-devel perhaps?
User4: or whomever maintains those packages
User4: do you have a link to the build? a vague question of "what happened with foo in ubuntu?" is pretty hard to answer
User4: and vivid is in development, so a dependency wait is not unheard of
User4: that binary package seems to not exist in vivid though
User4: it has a newer version of mesa
User4: looks like it was dropped when 10.4 was synced from debian
User4: you should probably ask mlankhorst about that
User8: This is an RSS issue: The Inkscape trunk RSS feed only displays the revision # in the title of the feed post and the commit message in the feed content...is there a way to display the commit message in the in the feed title?
User8: Link: https://code.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk
User8: Screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9tfvj7i1grmtpsn/Screenshot%202015-02-17%2012.37.19.png?dl=0
User8: (Sorry for flood)
User8: I was hoping to get 'revision #:' + 'commit message' all on the same line
User8: I talked with the RSS feeder author that I use..he says that this is an RSS issue
User7: The Loggerhead-generated RSS seems better in this regard, so you could use that
User7: (They're bizarrely different, compare https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/256449)
User9: Launchpad bug 256449 in Launchpad itself "please implement full diffs in the branches rss" [Low,Triaged]
User7: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/atom
User8: cjwatson, oh yea..that's what I was looking for
User8: nice!
