| wlach | is there anything I can do to get some attention to an easy-to-fix bug (just apply a pre-existing patch that has been in use by Fedora for >1 year) in Ubuntu? It would be great to see this fixed in time for the next version: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xchat/+bug/912392 | 03:52 |
|---|---|---|
| ubot2` | Launchpad bug 912392 in xchat "Please include upstream libnotify fix into package" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 03:52 |
| bryce | wlach, yeah I can take a look | 03:57 |
| bryce | wlach, but not before next week | 03:57 |
| bryce | wlach, btw for reference, in general if you *attach* the patch to the bug rather than mention a link to it, that tends to get it on people's radars better | 03:58 |
| bryce | since launchpad then flags it as a patch, which gets it into the sponsoring review queue | 03:59 |
| wlach | bryce: I can easily do that, since I created a patched package myself a day ago :) | 03:59 |
| wlach | bryce: there's no rush, I just wanted to make sure it got attention ... | 03:59 |
| bryce | wlach, if you know how to create debdiffs, attaching a debdiff is a *really* good way to get it some attention, since those tend to get even higher priority in the sponsor queue | 04:01 |
| wlach | bryce: oh cool, I didn't know that, no | 04:02 |
| wlach | It's been a long time since I've messed with debian packaging but I'm sure I can learn | 04:02 |
| wlach | relearn that is | 04:02 |
| bryce | wlach, cool! well welcome :-) | 04:03 |
| wlach | bryce: Can't promise I'll show up *too* often as I have lots of stuff on the go. ;-) this particular issue just happened to be driving me crazy enough to motivate me to go into #gnome-shell and debug it with the help of some of the developers there | 04:04 |
| wlach | but this is good to know for future reference | 04:05 |
| bryce | wlach, yep | 04:05 |
| BigWhale | God Morning. | 06:33 |
| BigWhale | Good | 06:33 |
| chrisccoulson | desrt, does calling g_settings_new result in an AddMatch message being sent over the session bus? (eg, "type='signal',interface='ca.desrt.dconf.Writer',path='/ca/desrt/dconf/Writer/user',arg0path='/system/proxy/'") | 20:32 |
| desrt | yes | 20:38 |
| desrt | asynchronously so | 20:38 |
| chrisccoulson | desrt, ah, that will be why thunderbird is spamming my session bus with millions of these messages | 20:38 |
| chrisccoulson | it does this every time it creates a new http channel, to check the proxy settings | 20:39 |
| chrisccoulson | we should probably cache these :) | 20:39 |
| desrt | sounds reasonable, indeed :) | 20:39 |
| chrisccoulson | thunderbird is also haemorrhaging memory whilst it's doing this too :( | 20:42 |
| chrisccoulson | that's going to be fun to debug | 20:42 |
| chrisccoulson | hmmm, i think i'm going to have to rebuild thunderbird to turn off jemalloc :( | 20:55 |
