Launchpad itself

What is causing "Could not be uploaded correctly" in this build?

Asked by Kristopher Ives

The latest example of this problem is this build log:

https://launchpadlibrarian.net/556251603/buildlog.txt.gz

The recipe I'm trying to build is this one:

https://code.launchpad.net/~elementary-extras/+recipe/elementary-monitor-daily

What originally started this problem is probably that I attempted to have a package deleted from the PPA. The reason I did that is because the project I'm building uses git submodules and so a source package was built that could never build.

What should I do to avoid this error?

Looking at what seems to be the file in question, https://git.launchpad.net/elementary-extras/tree/changelog?h=monitor&id=3f46a8ca62f78e3408e1dc968479720566c8b131, the changelog is misformatted:

"""
elementary-monitor (0.8.0) bionic; urgency=low
  * System resources tab
-- Stanislaw Dac <email address hidden> Sun, 19 Jul 2020 00:30:43 +0200
"""

There are very few circumstances where you shouldn't use the `dch` tool to maintain changelogs, but if you really must do it manually then it should look like this (importantly including a space before the "--" on the trailing line):

"""
elementary-monitor (0.8.0) bionic; urgency=low

  * System resources tab

 -- Stanislaw Dac <email address hidden> Sun, 19 Jul 2020 00:30:43 +0200
"""

Hi William, I saw those warnings as well and swapped it out for a different changelog but that didn't solve the problem. What eventually did solve the problem was waiting for the PPA delete to finish.
