(Get the code!)
from #launchpad
(8:11:21 PM) jturney: I'm having a problem using my PPA; the dput succeeds, but then nothing happens; I've almost certainly made the package wrongly... but I don't get any clue what's wrong
(8:11:53 PM) bigjools: jturney: how long ago did you upload?
(8:12:30 PM) jturney: I tried a few days ago
(8:12:50 PM) jturney: I tried again a couple of times in the past couple of hours
(8:22:20 PM) jturney: How long might I expect to wait for the mail with the .changes file at the moment, then?
(8:47:27 PM) maxb: jturney: If your uploaded .changes is not signed, or is not signed with the right pgp-key, I think you currently get no error email (because in that case launchpad doesn't actually know who did the upload)
(8:52:33 PM) jturney: I'm specifying the signing key id 0x7633C10E, which is the one I have configured on launchpad
(8:54:50 PM) jturney: dput says there is a good signature made with that key when I do the upload
(8:58:41 PM) bigjools: jturney: what maxb said, double check your signatures.
(9:03:09 PM) jturney: http://
(9:03:18 PM) jturney: https:/
(9:10:46 PM) bigjools: jturney: can I see your dput.cf please
(9:12:06 PM) jturney: sure
(9:12:35 PM) jturney: http://
(9:13:43 PM) bigjools: cprov, are you around?
(9:19:24 PM) bigjools: mthaddon: still about?
(9:19:47 PM) mthaddon: bigjools: yep
(9:20:25 PM) bigjools: mthaddon: aha - can you help jturney see what happened to his missing upload please? It'll be in the failed upload area on germanium I guess
(9:20:59 PM) mthaddon: bigjools: he doesn't get a log/email response of that?
(9:21:21 PM) bigjools: mthaddon: no, it's some failure mode that prevents email
(9:21:28 PM) bigjools: usually a key problem
(9:38:56 PM) bigjools: jturney: http://
(9:39:13 PM) bigjools: thanks for helping mthaddon
(9:39:20 PM) maxb: Hmm - why doesn't launchpad email the owner of the PPA if it can't deduce an identity from the key?
(9:39:33 PM) mthaddon: bigjools: np, thx for talking me through it
(9:39:52 PM) bigjools: maxb: to avoid spamming the innocent
(9:40:19 PM) bigjools: we'll be doing ssh-based uploads in the future which will avoid this problem
(9:42:17 PM) jturney: hmm... ok.... so can I simply remove the ~ppa suffix from the changes file?
(9:43:45 PM) bigjools: you need pidgin-
(9:43:47 PM) jturney: oh, or is that telling me <arch> is missing
(9:43:49 PM) jturney: right :-)
(9:44:14 PM) bigjools: this warrants a bug report if you wounld't mind :)
(9:44:21 PM) bigjools: erm *wouldn't*
(9:44:42 PM) jturney: sure
(9:44:47 PM) bigjools: thanks
(9:44:58 PM) jturney: oh, no, thank you :)
(9:45:10 PM) bigjools: we aim to please :)
(9:45:45 PM) bigjools: now, it's Friday night and I need a beer. Goodnight all.
