Launchpad itself

requesting manual merge of my account

Asked by Antonio Terceiro

Hi,

I want to merge the account I just created on launchpad (aterceiro) with the account that was created automatically in 2007 during an import from debian (terceiro).

I tried to do it by myself through launchpad, but what I get after I fill in the form in https://launchpad.net/people/+requestmerge?field.dupe_person=terceiro is:

Oops!
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-f8b71d3036c9b96341e07ad625184317)

I would like to keep `terceiro` as my username, and that all the info into `aterceiro` is merged into it. I have normal access to the emails associated with both accounts.

Hi, actually for some reason I can now access that older account (terceiro):

- I was logged in with aterceiro
- I confirmed one of the e-mails that is associated with the older account (terceiro), but using the new account (aterceiro)
- then I changed my default e-mail address to that email address
- suddenly I was logged in as the older account (terceiro)!

Anyway, I still need the accounts to be merged, since I had already associated one of my GPG keys with the new account.

So, please merge aterceiro into terceiro (i.e. terceiro remains, aterceiro goes away)

thanks

Both accounts were marked as active so I didn't need to do that manually (as wgrant suggests in bug#1019975). So have now merged aterceiro into terceiro

Can you help with this problem?
