lp:rt/5.0 has import errors from github

The same issue affecting our mail delivery is probably affecting code imports. It doesn't explain why this hasn't updated in months, since the issue in our environment is only today.

I suggest waiting for this issue to be resolved (teams are working on it as we speak) and then we can investigate further.

Apologies for the inconvenience!

Hi, the code imports from an external Git repository to Bzr on Launchpad not working is a known issue that we are aware of, but haven't been able to get to till now. A potential workaround would be to try to set up a Git-to-Git code import for the same external repository on Launchpad. If you have automation, tooling, or recipes using the current bzr branches, those will have to be updated to use the Git repository instead.

Thanks! If it can't be fixed soon, I'll plan to set up a Git-to-Git code import.

It's not in our current plans to fix this issue any time soon. I believe there should be already an open bug report for this - if not, I'll simply open one.

I will mark this question as answered - feel free to re-open it if you get issues with the Git-to-Git import.

I've tried Git-to-Git import, which itself was successful.

Then I tried to import launchpad's git https://git.launchpad.net/rt,branch=stable to bzr and got the same unsuccessful message:

    Updating branch...
    Launchpad is processing new changes to this branch which will be available in a few minutes. Reload to see the changes.

Correct me if I missed something, assuming I still need to import Git to Bzr for the "Translations" feature, is there a workaround?

Thanks!

Indeed it should be Bzr for translations. I think the work around is indeed to import to Bzr.

We will add it to our backlog to look into why that import hasn't been possible lately - though we won't be able to look into it within the next few days.

I'm sorry that I'm not able to give you a good timely solution.

No problem, I'll wait for a few more weeks.

Thanks!
