[08:13] <YoBoY> good morning
[15:29] <G__81> i am new to Ubuntu and let me introduce my self I am from chennai. I ve been contributing to fedora so would like to extend my contributions to Ubuntu. I am interested in bug fixing
[15:29] <G__81> it would be great if someone can take me on board :)
[15:52] <bcurtiswx> G__81: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage#Developer%20Process%20Bugs check that out to start with
[15:53] <bcurtiswx> G__81: if you have any questions about any bugs and what to do with them, don't hesitate to ask in here, everyone here is extremely helpful
[15:53] <G__81> Oh thanks a lot bcurtiswx
[15:53] <G__81> i ll for sure :)
[15:55] <bcurtiswx> G__81: i would suggest joining https://launchpad.net/~bugsquad and checking out the links there too
[15:55] <G__81> sure
[15:58] <G__81> bcurtiswx, i am not able to become an Ubuntero can you help me with it i dont want to talk about it in this channel so can i PM you if you dont mind ?
[16:00] <bcurtiswx> you may PM me
[16:02] <bcurtiswx> anyone know if the ubuntu keyserver is not working properly
[16:12] <charlie-tca> You could try #launchpad and see if they are having issues
[16:29] <fargiolas> hi, is there any known issue with launchpad bug watchers? I've change a bugzilla.gnome.org bug status first to NEW and after a couple of days to RESOLVED FIXED and launchpad still shows it as Incomplete (bugzilla's NEEDINFO)
[16:30] <fargiolas> bug 297890 fwiw
[16:30] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 297890 in cheese "on photo capture cheese blanks the screen until logout" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/297890
[16:33] <charlie-tca> Yes, fargiolas. It is a bug that the watches are not updating when they should.
[16:33] <charlie-tca> Launchpad is trying to fix it
[16:33] <charlie-tca> same problem with xfce.bugzilla
[16:35] <fargiolas> charlie-tca: ok, hope it will be fixed soon.. it's useful tool for upstream-downstream collaboration
[16:35] <fargiolas> but if it doesn't updates is pretty useful :P
[16:35] <charlie-tca> I agree. I don't know how quickly they can fix it, but I too am hoping
[16:35] <fargiolas> s/useful/useless/
[16:53] <napple> I don't know if this is a bug, or expected behavior, but if it is the latter, it is very annoying. When recv() is called with the len argument smaller than the number of bytes waiting in the receive queue, it returns nothing instead of just whatever fits into the buffer. is this some kind of bug?
[16:59] <YoBoY> hi
[17:01] <napple> uh, nevermind. isn't a bug
[17:19] <greg-g> napple: that question would most likely have been better answered by people in a channel devoted to the language you are using.
[17:20] <napple> greg-g, since recv is a system call on top of the Linux/Ubuntu network stack I disagree. but never mind, it was a premature statement I made and it is not a bug.
[17:53] <G__81> is there some mentoring available for bug fixing
[17:53] <G__81> so that i get used to the process for the first bug
[17:53] <G__81> it could be a very trivial bug to fix
[18:54] <zyga> (cross-post from #ubuntu-dev) hello, I'd like to ask if pydoc3 is broken by design or is something invalid with py3 in jaunty? compare: 'pydoc os' vs 'pydoc3 os'?
[19:47] <YoBoY> bug 339569 -> Importance "High" i think
[19:48] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 339569 in netkit-ftp "ftp command crashes when typing: !cd /tmp" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/339569
[19:50] <YoBoY> do you think bug 316973 is a duplicate of bug 339569 ?
