Bug Description

I was trying to request a second diff for tuxguitar from Debian -> Ubuntu. I already requested one for 1.2-9 to Oneiric version: 1.2-9ubuntu1. I would now like one for 1.2-9 to Sid version: 1.2-10, but I get 'diff from 1.2-9 (in Debian) to 1.2-9ubuntu1 was already requested by Micah Gersten'. It offers me to retry the generation, but it fails again.

Looking at the model code, this shouldn't be possible: that error message is produced only if a diff has already been requested between those exact source-package releases. I could imagine the browser code getting releases mixed up though if a package was updated between the time you loaded the overview page and the time you requested the review.

For reference, could you complete the picture of which version was where? AIUI you're requesting two diffs:

Distro / Release / Version → Distro / Release / Version
Debian / ??? / 1.2-9 → Ubuntu / Oneiric / 1.2-9ubuntu1
Debian (?) / ??? / 1.2-9 → Ubuntu (?) / Sid (!?) / 1.2-10

Also, if you reload the UI pages now and try again, is the problem still there?

Here's the URL I'm using:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+localpackagediffs?field.name_filter=&field.package_type=non-ignored&field.package_type-empty-marker=1&field.packageset=84&field.packageset=78

The package in question is tuxguitar.

Also of note, the Precise diffs for tuxguitar are fine.

Sorry, I think the diffs for Precise were the ones I created before. However, I'm experiencing this on the z88 package as well:
        13.0.0+dfsg2-2 to Precise version: 13.0.0+dfsg2-2ubuntu1
        13.0.0+dfsg2-2 to Wheezy version: 13.0.0+dfsg2-3

diff from 13.0.0+dfsg2-2 (in Debian) to 13.0.0+dfsg2-2ubuntu1 was already requested by Micah Gersten
