Launchpad itself

Please rename my account from "moosefs-ce" to just "moosefs", since it does not contain any PPAs

Asked by MooseFS Development & Support Team

Hello,

I know, that theoretically it is impossible, but here: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+faq/569 I found an information that "If you have (ever) published packages to your PPA, then as I understand it, you can't rename your account.".

On this account no PPAs were published. Some time ago MooseFS was called MooseFS CE, now it is called just MooseFS and we want to put packages here, but to make it consistent it would be great if such account name change would be possible.

Regards

Hello, is it possible, or not?

We found an information, that we can create a new account and merge this with a new one, but we don't know the consequences (e.g. tickets created / assigned to this account - will be reassigned, or not?).

Waiting for your help.

Regards
MooseFS Team

You can rename your own account at https://launchpad.net/~/+edit. You may need to delete your PPA first.

Thank you very much. I couldn't find the button to delete PPA before, now I looked one more time and I found it. Thanks!
