[05:23] <wgrant> StevenK: k
[05:40] <StevenK> wgrant: Re bug 1128655 ; http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6009086/
[05:40] <_mup_> Bug #1128655: Creating a recipe and then requesting a build has an incorrect PPA selected by default in the build request dialog <confusing-ui> <easy> <ppa> <recipe> <ui> <Launchpad itself:Triaged> <https://launchpad.net/bugs/1128655>
[05:44] <wgrant> StevenK: What will happen if the user can't write to either the last build PPA or the daily build PPA?
[05:46] <StevenK> wgrant: The list is populated with PPAs the user has upload permission for, so if the initial value is not in that list, I'd hope its ignored.
[05:49] <wgrant> StevenK: Right, which means you have the same problem.
[05:49] <wgrant> It ends up selecting the first PPA in the list.
[05:50] <StevenK> In the case of the daily build PPA or last build PPA being unappendable, I think that's okay
[05:50] <wgrant> I don't think so.
[05:50] <wgrant> It's too easy an accident to make, and lots of people make it.
[05:51] <wgrant> I think it should default to the daily build archive or nothing.
[05:51] <wgrant> Probably.
[05:51] <StevenK> Only probably?
[05:53] <StevenK> wgrant: Like http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6009118/ , then?
[05:54] <wgrant> StevenK: Right, but you'll also need to change something so the <select> has an option for no value, and ensure that the form rejects that.
[05:55] <StevenK> Oh, so the default is empty string or something
[05:55] <StevenK> (With no daily build archive)
[06:12] <StevenK> wgrant: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6009155/
[06:21] <wgrant> StevenK: Does ensuring that the archive field is required not work?
[06:21] <wgrant> The form infrastructure has some built-in functionality to add a "(no value)" option.
[06:21] <wgrant> Or some text like that.
[06:27] <StevenK> wgrant: The only thing I can see like that is missing_value for Field
[06:27] <StevenK> But that doesn't add it to the vocab
[06:28] <wgrant> StevenK: It doesn't need to be in the vocab, just the form field.
[06:28] <wgrant> eg. +copy-packages overrides it to say "The same series"
[06:30] <StevenK> wgrant: Which requires a new class that subs from LaunchpadDropDownWidget -- all the existing code has a Choice()
[06:31] <wgrant> StevenK: Have you looked at the internals to see how you can make the option appear?
[06:32] <StevenK> I've tried. zope.schema eats babies.
[06:47] <StevenK> wgrant: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6009237/
[06:50] <wgrant> StevenK: Can you possibly just override the field used by the *widget* to have required=False, so the validation can see required=True as normal, obviating the need for the extra code in validate()?
[06:58] <StevenK> wgrant: I could, if I could figure out how to do that
[06:59] <wgrant> StevenK: You can do it using a custom_widgets attribute on the form, I think.
[07:00] <StevenK> Really?
[07:00] <StevenK> I thought I would have reach into setUpWidgets and such
[07:02] <wgrant> You might have to.
[07:02] <wgrant> custom_widgets might just let you specify custom classes.
[07:02] <wgrant> Not sure.
[07:02] <StevenK> I think it's just custom classes, yeah.
[07:09] * wgrant mocks tests down from 3s to 0.008s.
[07:12] <StevenK> wgrant: I recall self.fields.omit() -- but it seems widgets don't work like that

[13:29] <GuidoPallemans> Hi everyone, I'm planning on building a launchpad app for the Ubuntu touch project, but I don't personally use launchpad actively. Can anybody help me what this app needs? it's going to be pretty basic

[23:48] <StevenK> wgrant: So yes, I can add a widget with required=False, but TBH, it's easier to change the field in the schema and eat the check in validate
