Bug#685327: qa.debian.org: report packager on package migration fail

2012-09-09 Thread Bart Martens
Hi Ritesh,

I agree with what Ricardo Mones wrote on 20 Aug 2012 on this bug.  I prefer
that no additional e-mails are sent to me related to the migrations from
unstable to testing.  (Actually I don't know how to unsubscribe to the existing
e-mails.)

I agree with Paul Wise about a simple solution with grep-excuses, and that this
bug should just be closed.

Regards,

Bart Martens

  That's just because you still don't receive enough. Not everybody is so
lucky ;)

  Sure, and not receiving it 10 days after uploading should have been a
hint something was wrong, as said. Anyway that's a matter of preferences.
As long as implementation is opt-in only it will be good.

I would think this is something for the release team's scripts. I
asked about it on the IRC channel of the release team and was told
that you should just run this in crontab `grep-excuses 'Ritesh Raj
Sarraf'`. I guess this bug should just be closed.

It won't hurt to receive an extra email.

No. Migration blockages are not always due to RC bugs. I filed this
report because I got hit by this. My package, open-iscsi, was blocked
because its dependent package, scsi-modules provided by the kernel,
recently stopped building on all architectures.

For this situation, I never got an email. So, please, if it can be done,
it'll be good.

  Mail is already sent when a package migrates succesfully, so absence of
such mail on the expected time should give you a hint.

  The situations you describe already grant very likely you have received
an RC bug mail describing the problem. You already know an RC bug will
prevent your package from migrating, so another mail telling the obvious
is just useless IMO.

Hi,

While it is not implemented, a nice and fairly easy way to fix that
could be to add an RSS feed output on http://udd.debian.org/dmd.cgi ...
(patch welcomed)

Bug#685327: qa.debian.org: report packager on package migration fail

2012-08-19 Thread Ritesh Raj Sarraf
Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

When a package is uploaded to unstable, after the 10 day window it
automatically migrates to testing.

If there are issues (which could be bug reports, or unsatisfied
packages, or policy violations), the package does not migrate. It would
be helpful that under such scenarios, the packager is sent an email
about the migration failure.
