[03:31] <WDC> hey hey
[03:32] <WDC> HOW do I read a decrypted GPG message?\
[03:32] <WDC> When I go gpg -d it just gives me what key
[03:34] <WDC> Hello/
[03:35] <thumper> do you mean "how do I readn an encrypted gpg message"?
[03:35] <WDC> Yah
[03:35] <WDC> My bad lol
[03:35] <thumper> what email client are you using?
[03:35] <WDC> Evo
[03:36] <WDC> And I put my e-mail in it and it STILL says secret key not avail
[03:37] <WDC> eh?
[03:37] <thumper> I'm not so familiar with evolution
[03:37] <thumper> but I'm pretty sure it can read encrypted emails
[03:37] <WDC> Well how do i do it in CLI?
[03:37] <thumper> if you save the encrypted block, and go "gpg -d <filename>" it should work
[03:38] <WDC> okay let me try
[03:38] <WDC> woot
[03:38] <WDC> thanks!
[03:38] <thumper> np
[03:39] <WDC> Why doesn't it work when I go gpg -d then paste it
[03:39] <thumper> no idea
[03:39] <WDC> hmm
[03:39] <WDC> Thanks again!

[10:43] <Jaymac> Hi, is there a problem with Launchpad openid? I'm trying to login to the new kde wiki with my launchpad openid but it won't work - it works fine with a different openid I have with my AIM account
[10:46] <Jaymac> note: I've tried both typing https://login.launchpad.net/ and pasting the exact login URL from my profile page; neither work
[10:51] <bigjools> Jaymac: I think it's a known problem with the wiki
[10:54] <Jaymac> bigjools: ok thanks for the info :)
[10:55] <Jaymac> bigjools: I probably should have tested it on another site as well...
[10:56] <Jaymac> bigjools: yeah, it works fine on other websites... must be a problem with the wiki
[10:56] <bigjools> it's being worked on, btw
[10:57] <Jaymac> bigjools: ok :)
[12:05] <ulim> I get "There is 1 error." when I try to change my name. What's the problem?
=== mwhudson_ is now known as mwhudson
[12:05] <mwhudson> there should be some more details on the page
[12:08] <ulim> mwhudson: ah thanks found it! There was a little icon next to the timezone. Not sure what changing my name has got to do with the timezone
[12:09] <ulim> oh can I install a forward on my old name somehow? It just says page doesnt exist now :(
[12:10] <jonnydee> Hi :) I would like to delete a project from launchpad, but I cannot find a corresponding button. Can anyone help me out?
[12:10] <mwhudson> nope
[12:10] <mwhudson> i think there are bugs about this...
[12:11] <mwhudson> jonnydee: ask at answers.launchpad.net/launchpad
[12:11] <jonnydee> ah, so there is no way to do it on my own?
[12:11] <ulim> mwhudson: that nope was for my question?
[12:11] <mwhudson> ulim: indeed
[12:11] <mwhudson> jonnydee: corrent
[12:11] <mwhudson> correct, even
[12:12] <jonnydee> ok, thanks a lot :)
[12:13] <ulim> hmmm to bad. I hope google will index soon ;)

[15:18] <Carroarmato0> Hi, I'm having a problem with my Launchpad account. I first created an account some years ago with my hotmail email address, later I changed my email address to use Gmail. And now, even though I sign in with a different email address, Launchpad still sends bug reports to my old hotmail address. How can this be fixed?
[15:19] <TuniX12> merge accounts
[15:21] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: do you have two accounts, or just one with two email addresses?
[15:22] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: also, what's your launchpad username?
[15:22] <Carroarmato0> that's the thing I'm not sure of. I think I do have two accounts which conflict with eachother
[15:22] <Carroarmato0> Account name is Carroarmato0
[15:23] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: and when you go to https://edge.launchpad.net/~carroarmato0/+editemails
[15:23] <Carroarmato0> For instance: I'm loged in with the Gmail account address. Launchpad tells me that my default email address is Hotmail. But then I don't have enough permissions to add my Gmail account, eventhough I'm loged in
[15:24] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: can you see if you have one email address or both?
[15:24] <Carroarmato0> "Your preferred contact address for all Launchpad e-mail is: ****@hotmail.com "
[15:24] <Carroarmato0> just one
[15:25] <Carroarmato0> And I can't add anyother address
[15:25] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: why can't you add it?
[15:25] <Carroarmato0> It tells me: "Sorry, you don't have permission to access this page. "
[15:25] <Carroarmato0> And under that: " You are logged in as Carroarmato0. "
[15:26] <Carroarmato0> So I guess it's a bug.....?
[15:26] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: really? that sounds strange. you're logged in, but you don't have permission to edit your own details?....
[15:26] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: yes, that must be a bug
[15:26] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: let me see if i can find out what's going on
[15:27] <Carroarmato0> It's not really serious to me.... though I must say.... it buggs me. :)
[15:28] <Carroarmato0> Btw in my profile view, there is a lock on my hotmail email address. I suppose that's normal...?
[15:30] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: that's because your email is hidden
[15:33] <Carroarmato0> If you look on this page you'll notice my two accounts that are subscribed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/136743
[15:33] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 136743 in ubuntu "Home folder permissions" [Wishlist,Confirmed]
[15:34] <Carroarmato0> So one account is know as ~carroarmato0 and the other one as ~carroarmato0-gmail
[15:37] <Carroarmato0> And it also seems like I'm able to change the status of a bug by myself and overide the status setting that a triager has set.
[15:39] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: ah, so you do have two accounts
[15:39] <Carroarmato0> jup
[15:39] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: was the gmail one created automatically for you, or you just created two accounts?
[15:40] <Carroarmato0> I think I created it by myself
[15:40] <Carroarmato0> Maybe deleting the old one would help?
[15:41] <Carroarmato0> But this is really weird... The only account I have access to is the ~carroarmato0 one. And not the ~carroarmato0-gmail one.
[15:42] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: what do you mean by not having access to it?
[15:42] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: you can't log into that account?
[15:43] <Carroarmato0> My login and password don't work on that one. I'm going to try again (it's a been a few years or so)
[15:43] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: you can ask for your password to be reset
[15:43] <Carroarmato0> Auw it works.
[15:44] <Carroarmato0> Going to try changing the settings
[15:45] <Carroarmato0> It seems like I can't get to my profile page with this account even if I'm loged in ~carroarmato0-gmail
[15:45] <Carroarmato0> Ah now it works
[15:47] <Carroarmato0> You know what? I think I'm going to delete the hotmail one, to try and make things more easier.
[15:47] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: yeah, that's an easy option. otherwise, we can arrange for an account merge
[15:48] <Carroarmato0> You sure that won't make things more complicated? :)
[15:48] <Carroarmato0> The way it is now, it's more or less of a mess.
[15:49] <Carroarmato0> I'll try deleting the old account....
[15:49] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: go for it. you can always add the email address later on to your -gmail one
[15:50] <Carroarmato0> Ow wait... I've just found the option to merge in the delete account section.... going to try that first and see if it works
[15:51] <Carroarmato0> Nope, I still get the bug: " Sorry, you don't have permission to access this page.
[15:51] <Carroarmato0> You are logged in as Carroarmato0. "
[15:51] <Carroarmato0> So I'm going to delete it anyway.
[15:54] <Carroarmato0> Ok, it worked. But now I still can't add my old email address next to my Gmail one
[15:54] <Carroarmato0> Same permission error
[15:56] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: so, you are logged into your -gmail account, but when you try to add the email address you get a permission error?
[15:56] <Carroarmato0> yes, and btw, I changed my name back to "carroarmato0" instead of "carroarmato0-gmail"
[16:06] <Carroarmato0> intellectronica, It looks like my old disabled account it preventing me from chaning the name of my wiki from "Carroarmato02" to juist "Carroarmato0". No big deal since I don't have anything on that anyway.
[16:07] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: yeah, wiki names are pretty useless, unless you actually have a wiki page with your name :)
[16:07] <Carroarmato0> intellectronica, will my old disabled account be deleted?
[16:08] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: it's just disabled. bugs created with it for example, will be unaffected
[16:10] <Carroarmato0> Is it possible to deregister the wiki name "Carroarmato0" from my old account so I can reclaim it?
[16:12] <Carroarmato0> intellectronica, Is it possible to deregister the wiki name "Carroarmato0" from my old account so I can reclaim it?
[16:12] <intellectronica> Carroarmato0: i don't know. let me try and find out
[16:23] * Carroarmato0 is going to reboot in linux

[20:50] <kalosaurusrex> Who do I need to ask for permission to use an image on my project's website? I'd like to use: https://answers.launchpad.net/+icing/but-sml-askaquestion.gif and I will not hotlink it, only use the image for reference to Launchpad.
[20:51] <kiko> kalosaurusrex, can you check with Rinchen? he's the best person to answer that question
[20:52] <\sia\> hi
[20:52] <\sia\> any one from translation team her?
[20:52] <kalosaurusrex> kiko: great thanks!
[20:53] <Rinchen> hi kalosaurusrex
[20:54] <kalosaurusrex> Rinchen: hiya!
[20:54] <Rinchen> kalosaurusrex, that's original artwork we did and it resides inside launchpad. we currently don't have a license for that but we do occasionally allow folks to reuse it for FOSS applications.
[20:54] <kalosaurusrex> I'm curious if I can use the image https://answers.launchpad.net/+icing/but-sml-askaquestion.gif on a project's website with it linking to the launchpad answers section.
[20:54] <Rinchen> kalosaurusrex, can you give me an example of where you want to use that, for what, and how?
[20:55] <kalosaurusrex> Sure, I want to link from http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/support.html and have the image go to the launchpad answers area. (the site isn't completed yet still working on it.)
[20:56] <kalosaurusrex> It would (in theory) replace the Click here to submit a question link
[20:57] <kalosaurusrex> I can add any reference to launchpad that you'd like as well.
[21:05] <kiko> Rinchen, that sounds like a great idea. I wonder if we could make it clearer how people could go about using launchpad images to link from their websites.
[21:06] <dobey> hi Rinchen
[21:06] <Rinchen> hi dobey
[21:07] <kalosaurusrex> Rinchen: sorry did I miss a reply? or still looking at it. :)
[21:07] <dobey> Rinchen: have a few minutes free?
[21:07] <Rinchen> kalosaurusrex, no sorry, still looking. I've got a few things brewing at the same time :-)
[21:07] <kalosaurusrex> oh okay no worries. thanks for your time!
[21:08] <Rinchen> kalosaurusrex, ok, please send an email to me, [email protected], and cc: [email protected]. I'll approve the request with some minor legal stuff I'll send back in the email.
[21:08] <kalosaurusrex> Great thanks. I'll send you the email rightnow
[21:09] <Rinchen> kalosaurusrex, do you need other sizes for that? I suspect we have the source lying around in our tree.
[21:09] <Rinchen> dobey, ask away and I'll do what I can to help you.
[21:09] <kalosaurusrex> Rinchen: I think that side should be fine actually. Thanks!
[21:09] <kalosaurusrex> eh size
[21:10] <\sia\> anyone from translation team, have quick question :)
[21:10] <Rinchen> kiko, I have been handling this on a case by case basis so far. I have a few standard requirements for the requested site and also legal items. I could begin to document those on the Legal page if you think it's of any value.
[21:10] <Rinchen> kiko, it's not hard and fast though.
[21:10] <Rinchen> kiko, I was hoping to be a bit flexible.
[21:12] <kiko> Rinchen, what I'm saying is that many project sites want to link to launchpad's applications for their projects, and we don't have a standard way for them to do so.
[21:14] <kalosaurusrex> Rinchen: I've just sent you the email. Thanks again for your time and assistance.
[21:21] <Rinchen> kalosaurusrex, you have mail
[21:22] <kalosaurusrex> got it! I'll make the changes you requested. and send you the link to the page it's on if you'd like
[21:28] <Rinchen> kalosaurusrex, nifty thanks
