Launchpad itself

Cannot merge an account: "something just went wrong"

Asked by Murray Cumming

When trying to merge the (automatically generated by a PPA) murrayc-openismus account with my regular murrayc account (so I can subscribe to a mailing list with my <email address hidden> email address), I see an error page with this content:

"
Sorry, something just went wrong in Launchpad.

We’ve recorded what happened, and we’ll fix it as soon as possible. Apologies for the inconvenience.

(Error ID: OOPS-692daad8b27aa4614d442389d0acca58)

Laura, apparently I must be an LP admin to do that. And apparently you are an Admin. Could you help me out with that, please?
