elfyBug 1231978 11:52
ubottubug 1231978 in thunar (Ubuntu) "Thunar 1.6.3 under xubuntu 13.10 beta2 locks when browsing Trash" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/123197811:52
elfythat's an annoyance 11:52
brainwashpcmanfm is also affected according to the bug reporter11:55
brainwashtime to boot my test machine..11:56
ochosielfy: can't confirm that on my install12:22
ochosibrowsing trash seems fine here12:23
brainwashochosi: default packages including gvfs?12:29
brainwashbut wait, would the trash even exist without the gvfs backend.. :D12:29
brainwashochosi: xfce4-appfinder starts delayed due to the known dbus timeout, still don't know why it started to behave like this out of nowhere12:32
ochosibrainwash: yeah, me neither. quite odd. wondering whether other 13.10 users will confirm it12:44
GridCubeconfirm what?12:49
GridCubei have a vbox to test if you need 12:50
ochosidelay when starting up appfinder12:53
GridCubethats the alt-f2 thingy right?12:56
elfygoing to do a new vm now - will check the thunar and appfinders with that too12:56
brainwashochosi: it did start normally after installing Xubuntu daily, then few days later after bloating the system with almost every DE the appfinder takes some time to actually start (even on a fresh boot)12:57
brainwashalt+f2 or via xfce4-appfinder12:57
brainwashelfy: is the thunar trash issue reproducible after the first lock/crash?12:58
GridCubei don't see any delay in xfrun412:59
elfymmm so you can't delete things you create in a live session then 13:00
elfybrainwash: yep - it is reproducible 13:01
elfyand now ubiquity crashes13:02
brainwashubuntu lost its stability...13:02
* elfy too13:04
brainwashochosi: so I noticed that the transition from the greeter screen to the actual desktop isn't smooth when compositing is enabled (default), it's like this: greeter background -> grey background caused by the compositor -> then xfdesktop starts and sets the desktop wallpaper13:05
elfymmm - so odd behaviour with thunar in live session made ubiquity have a paddy13:06
elfyreboot and it's ok13:06
brainwashochosi: known issue I guess, but it should be addressed13:06
brainwashelfy: can you test pcmanfm also?13:07
elfywhy would I do that? 13:07
brainwashso we can add it to the list of affected packages13:08
brainwashand even gvfs13:08
elfymmm - well I'm actually only interested in default xubuntu packages 13:08
brainwashgvfs is a default package13:08
brainwashand it's responsible for the trash interaction13:09
elfywon't let me delete to trash - lets me completely deletee13:10
elfyrebooting it 13:11
brainwashthe gvfs packages have been updated just very recently 2013-09-27 13:11
brainwash"New upstream bug fix release."13:12
brainwashso you might need to apply updates before testing the issue13:13
elfylocally it's up to date13:15
elfythe iso I booted from for vm is today's13:16
brainwashok13:20
elfywell all the errors at least tell me the same thing :)13:26
elfybrainwash: so - after thunar has failed to do it's thing and creating an empty file with pcmanfm13:30
elfytrying to start install/delete said file/open a screenshot all gets this error - just with different window titlebars 13:31
elfyhttp://imagebin.org/27218813:31
brainwash:/13:33
brainwashwell, I can confirm that thunar locks13:34
elfywon't even let me add the screenshots to the bug report in f/fox either lol 13:36

elfyochosi: however before all that went on - appfinder was working fine and quickly from either AltF2 or panel13:40
elfyback later13:55

baizonok, all bugs fixed :)15:04
brainwashbug 1231978 needs to be resolved asap18:54
ubottubug 1231978 in thunar (Ubuntu) "Thunar 1.6.3 under xubuntu 13.10 beta2 locks when browsing Trash" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/123197818:54
ochosibrainwash: not that easy to address the transition to desktop, possibly it'd have to be some kind of "effect" like blending over that gives everything time to load. or a patch in the session-manager to only display stuff as soon as everything is loaded (could also look weird, going from black to everything...)21:03
brainwashochosi: maybe just setting the root background after login (before everything loads) could work21:06
ochosiyeah, so greeter > black screen > desktop?21:06
brainwashuse the user background21:06
ochosithat means loading xfdesktop21:07
ochosiotherwise it's a bit of a duplication imo21:07
ochosixfdesktop should be lean enough to load reasonably fast21:07
brainwashyes, it is, but xfdesktop starts after everything else (it looks like it does)21:08
brainwashI'll just file a bug report21:08
ochosithen that should be addressed in the session-manager imo21:08
brainwashand we will see21:08
brainwashthis thunar/xfdesktop/pcmanfm trash issue is bothering me21:09
ochosicouldn't reproduce it21:09
ochosimaybe i'm missing some updates..?21:09
ochosiit started to appear very recently only, right?21:09
brainwashbug report is just 1 day old21:10
brainwashand there was a gvfs update too21:10
ochosiok i'll monitor my incoming updates21:10
brainwashnautilus/nemo are not affected21:10
ochosiwell it's *very* possible that it's gvfs related if it doesn't just affect thunar21:10
ochosi:/21:11
Unit193apt-listchanges?21:11
pjotrI just installed Xubuntu Saucy beta 2. What I really missed was Gparted in the live session. Can Gparted be added again?21:11
brainwashmaybe it something different, the window locks -> no more interaction other then window manager stuff is possible21:11
ochosithe changelog says "* New upstream bug fix release."21:11
ochosifun21:11
brainwashBUT it still displays changes to the trash folder if you use a second instance of thunar and delete some more files21:12
brainwashpjotr: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/saucy/beta-2/xubuntu-13.10-beta2-desktop-amd64.manifest21:14
brainwashgparted0.16.1-121:14
brainwashso it should be there, technically21:15
pjotrbrainwash: well, I couldn't find it....21:15
ochosiit's in the settings-manager21:15
brainwashsettings manager?21:15
brainwashor via alt+F221:15
brainwashochosi: and I noticed, that since the slowness of appfinder started xfseetingsd is also acting strange21:16
brainwashnot reacting to key presses (keyboard shortcuts) or theme changes21:17
pjotrOK, I'll check settings manager. However: "system" or even "accessories" seems a more logical place in the menu21:17
ochosipjotr: yep, iirc there was a bugreport for that21:17
pjotrbrb21:19
brainwashochosi: so try to delete a file, maybe two, the right-click on the trash icon and empty it21:19
ochosiguess i21:20
ochosi'd have to restart21:20
ochosican do that after finishing the wayland 1.3 presentation21:20
brainwashI skipped most of the presentation21:20
brainwash(boring)21:20
ochosiyeah, i've seen a few of those already21:21
brainwashso the gvfs "bug fix" update is most likely the culprit21:25
pjotrbrainwash: Gparted was in Settings Manager allright.... thanks for pointing it out21:27
pjotrnevertheless: can you help moving it to System or Accessories? Much more intuitive locations.21:28
brainwashgnome disks utility also shows up in the settings manager21:30
brainwashmany system apps actually do21:30
pjotrnot a very fortunate design decision, in my opinion....21:31
brainwashwell, you should consider filing a bug report21:32
Unit193That's by design, if you look at the excludes in /etc/xdg/xdg-xubuntu/menus/xfce-applications.menu21:32
Unit193Was changed a little back.21:32
ochosik, i'll reboot now and then we'll see about the thunar trash bug21:34
ochosibrb21:34
pjotrUnit193: upstream at xfce or downstream at xubuntu?21:35
Unit193Xubuntu.21:35
ochosibrainwash: hmpf, confirmed :/21:36
ochosibrainwash: did you check the logs already?21:36
brainwashuhm, yea21:37
ochosiwhich ones so far?21:37
brainwashdon't want to boot my test machine now21:37
brainwash~/.cache/upstart21:37
brainwashthe xfce session one21:37
brainwashuhm, we have to confront pitti with this issue :D21:38
ochosiwell, you go ahead21:38
ochosiyou were already successful in getting poettering on the red telephone :)21:38
ochosihm, pitti has been away for more than a day21:39
ochosiso maybe subscribe him to the bugreport?21:39
pjotrI noticed during install of beta 2, that the Xubuntu ubiquity slideshow didn't use my recently updated Dutch translations. Will this be remedied before final release?21:39
brainwashochosi: yes, and add a comment about your findings21:40

ochosiwell and i can't downgrade gvfs anymore21:43
brainwashcommandline and navigate to ~/.local/share/Trash/21:43
ochosiyeah sure21:44
ochosibtw, why pitti? did he upload that version of gfvs?21:44
brainwashbetween, does subscribing the package maintainer help?21:44
ochosiyeah, it can't hurt21:44
ochosithey might receive the bugmail anyway though21:45
ochosias soon as a new bug is reported21:45
ochosibut giving this one some extra attention might be good21:45
brainwashI guess he is one of the package maintainers21:45
brainwashhehe :)21:45
brainwashochosi: did you already check the apt cache for the previous gvfs packages?21:49
brainwashin case you want to reinstall them21:49
ochosiapt-cache madison only gives me the faulty version21:52
ochosiwhich sucks a bit cause i'd love to be able to downgrade to confirm once and for all that it's gvfs's fault21:52
ochosi(even though i'm rather convinced already)21:52
Unit193And in /var/cache/apt/archives/ ?21:52
ochositrue, there it is...21:53
ochosithanks Unit193 21:53
Unit193Unless you autoclean a lot. >_>21:54
ochosibrb21:54
ochosiok, confirmed that it's the gvfs upgrade21:56
brainwashyes, I meant apt's cache location21:56
Unit193brainwash: I read you right. :)21:57
brainwashwell, now we simply wait for a fix21:58
ochosiwell, if he had said "have you already checked cache apt"... :}21:58
ochosiyeah i guess21:59
ochosiit's a bit out of our hands now21:59
Unit193I think enough is breaking for saucy very late. :/21:59
ochosii agree, although it's a bit "business as usual" already22:02
ochosii've seen enough releases where i thought a few weeks prior to the release "i'll definitely recommend my friends not to upgrade"22:02
ochosiand then (mostly) things turned out fine22:02
ochosi(that is not to say that this doesn't seriously suck as a general routine)22:02
brainwashit's not that bad currently22:03
brainwashxfce is still at 4.10-ish22:03
brainwashbut this gtk3 indicator mess... oh boy22:03
Unit193I'm actually waiting to see what happens there before I upgrade, it's pretty much what's holding me back.22:04
* skellat is being cowardly and has his laptop stuck on the LTS for now22:06
Unit193Well, I think it's going to complain if I try to upgrade with the held packages from precise again. :P22:08
bluesabrealrighty, I might actually be able to be productive now22:13
Unit193Woo! \o/22:13

ochosihard to say :)22:22
ochosiwhat's on your agenda?22:22
bluesabreI think I might add to your plugin failure detection22:22
bluesabrewhich does work, so kudos22:23
ochosinice22:23
ochosiwell it's good that it works, but it doesn't catch all the calls i think22:23
ochosiit could/should be more thorough, although it only seems relevant with the current (packaging?) issue22:24
bluesabreyeah22:24
bluesabreI might hack on the packaging tonight/tomorrow and see if I can figure anything out22:24
ochosipackaging means mostly panel+indicators, right?22:24
bluesabrethat too22:24
ochosiah, you meant parole packaging22:25
ochosii think i could start on a todo-list for the greeter22:27
ochosicould you link me to your dokuwiki again?22:27
