Launchpad itself

why I can not get my user info by email using launchpadlib

Asked by Zhikun Liu

My email is "<email address hidden>".
I can not get my user info by email using launchpadlib. But I can get others' info.

$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 10 2013, 05:13:16)
[GCC 4.7.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from launchpadlib import launchpad
>>> lp = launchpad.Launchpad.login_anonymously('testuser')
>>> lp_user = lp.people.getByEmail(<email address hidden>")
>>> print lp_user
None

But try others, it works.
>>> lp.people.getByEmail(<email address hidden>")
<person at https://api.staging.launchpad.net/1.0/~shakhat>
>>>

Does anybody know it?

Thank you!

You are querying our staging database, which is a bit out of date at the moment, and doesn't know about that e-mail address.

Steve, Thank you very much! I have another question. When you update the staging database?

Can you help with this problem?
