Patch pilot report 2012-09-28

[Didier Roche]

Hey,

So here is my shift of patch piloting. The queue was at 128 when I 
started and it's now at 94 at the end of my shift.


Here are some boring details:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/986692
-> remove the ubuntu-sponsors team. The team is not to backport a patch 
to a previous release but sponsoring patches. Gave some links for 
getting help on how to do it.

https://code.launchpad.net/~logan/ubuntu/quantal/casper/fixes-1057234/+merge/126759
-> sponsored. Added an additional fix.

https://code.launchpad.net/~darkxst/casper/fix-gdm-autologin-lp1046630-fix3/+merge/126238
-> sponsored and included with the previous branch.

https://code.launchpad.net/~bkerensa/ubuntu/quantal/myunity/fix-for-986667/+merge/126085
-> rejecting it. Myunity is removed from quantal as there has been no 
upstream fixes for the unity/compiz gconf -> gsettings transition.

https://code.launchpad.net/~roadmr/ubuntu/quantal/checkbox/0.14.7/+merge/126497
-> merged

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sonic/+bug/1057272
-> the update is for R. Unsuscribed ubuntu-sponsors and targeted to later

-> were already sponsored without pushing the branch. Marked as merged

https://code.launchpad.net/~bkerensa/ubuntu/quantal/gelemental/fix-for-1051992/+merge/125963
-> inlined patch, no indication it was reported upstream, put in WIP.

https://code.launchpad.net/~thor-peter/ubuntu/quantal/ftpcopy/bug-305831/+merge/126112
-> patch directly in the upstream tarball, patch system unused and not 
reported upstream. Rejected and gave some instructions.

https://code.launchpad.net/~timo-jyrinki/ubuntu/quantal/ubuntu-font-family-sources/manual_fix_ubuntu_M/+merge/126647
-> asked to retarget to -proposed as the Qt patch linked to this fix is 
living there. However, the MR was removed by the author because there is 
no way to edit properly the font with free tools.

https://code.launchpad.net/~bkerensa/ubuntu/quantal/ddtp-translations/fix-for-control/+merge/125942
-> added a minor fix and uploaded

https://code.launchpad.net/~bkerensa/ubuntu/quantal/ushare/fix-for-1044024/+merge/126198

then done, but still an inlined patch. Ask for fixing this.

minor fixes.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pdksh/+bug/1054343
-> same remark that for the previous one, process subscription and minor 
fix (for precise only)


Have a nice day!
Cheers,
Didier
