Bug#705580: qa.debian.org: [UDD] import of long descriptions seems to be broken
Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: important
Hi,
since some days the import of long descriptions for releases 'sid'
and 'experimental' are broken:
udd=> SELECT package, language, distribution, release, component, description, long_description from descriptions where long_description != '' and release in ('sid','experimental');
package | language | distribution | release | component | description | long_description
---------+----------+--------------+---------+-----------+-------------+------------------
(0 Zeilen)
The import of the descriptions is done by the ddtp importer that is
reading files named Translation-<lang>.bz2 in
ullmann.debian.org:/srv/mirrors/debian/dists/sid/main/i18n
I verified that these files are available as usual. I just learned
about directories Translation-<lang>.diff which are new to me and did
not existed when I worked on the ddtp importer (which is ignoring
these dirs).
I verified that the importer works properly on my test host:
udd=# SELECT language, count(*) from descriptions where long_description != '' and release in ('sid','experimental') group by language order by language;
language | count

So something seems to be broken only on ullmann.d.o but I do not have
any idea what this might be. Unfortunately I do not feel able to
check this due to a very weak connection to this host.
This problem does exist probably for one week because one of its effects
was reported last Thursday[1] and the cron job that was creating the
broken pages was running on Wed, 2013-04-10. I vaguely remember that the
broken descriptions in the tasks pages as reported[1] were OK on last
Sunday evening - but I'm not fully sure. In any case you might expect a
temporary / random problem.
Hope anybody with better access to ullmann.d.o can have a look.
Kind regards
Andreas.
