seb128Laney, is there a ppa or something or did you just try to build u-s-d and u-c-c?08:20
LaneyI just merged the 3 branches08:21
seb128k08:21

Laneyenjoy the merge conflict of doom08:23
darkxstLaney, that makes sense (you are trying to run 2 instances of code), try running its against gnome3-staging ppa08:33
darkxstwell atleast the first warnings, not sure about the missing dbus interface though08:35
Laneydarkxst: 2 instances of what code?08:37
darkxstidlemonitor08:37
Laneywasn't renamed?08:38
darkxstLaney, yes functions were renamed08:40
Laneywell lemme try building it against 3.10 then08:41
LaneyI guess the type wasn't08:41

Laneyhmm, there's a lightdm u-s-d being left around08:53
Laneykill that> no duplicate xsettings manager08:54
Laneydarkxst: the GsdIdleMonitor type still exists in newer gnome-desktop, think we need to rename it in usd08:57

Laneyhttps://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-settings-daemon/commit/?id=b462e6508:58
darkxstLaney, I though I fixed that in u-s-d?09:01
Laneynot in trunk apparently09:01
Laneydid you do a merge for just this one?09:01
darkxstyes I did a MP just for xkb stuff09:01
seb128Laney, still need me to try it? from the backlog it seems you identified real code issues for robert_ancell to sort out (so it's going to be buggy for me as well)09:01
Laneydarkxst: link?09:02
Laneyseb128: it's ok09:02

Laneyhaha09:12
Laneythat would explain it ...09:12
darkxstLaney, there is no GsdIdleMonitor in gnome-desktop09:14
darkxstit was already renamed, I guess09:14
darkxstLaney, do you get any more info setting G_MESSAGES_DEBUG?09:15
darkxst^=all09:16
Laneydarkxst: no09:23
darkxstLaney, I suppose you are ending up with no running u-s-d09:25
Laneyit does run09:26
Laneybut I'm not sure how functional it is09:26
Laneyno media keys, no theme09:26
darkxstbut then does it die?09:26
Laneynein09:26
darkxstLaney, you would probably loose your mouse cursor, if the u-s-d is running, but idle monitor is messed up09:27
LaneyI do have that09:28
darkxstand then there is the missing dbus interface which is also provided by u-s-d09:29
laze1989When using QtQuick Controls with ApplicationWindow -> MenuBar the menubar is not drawn in Ubuntu. This is due to some limits on appmenu-qt5 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/appmenu-qt5/+bug/1323853). I wanted to start with Qt (5.2.1) and build an UI using QML. Does anyone know how to workaround this circumstance (e.g., get Ubuntu Global Menu) and use QML?09:30
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1323853 in appmenu-qt5 "No menubar for QtQuick.Controls based applications" [Undecided,New]09:30
seb128laze1989, hey, why do you keep repeating that url? we saw it the first time09:30
seb128not sure about a workaround09:31
seb128Mirv, sil2100: ^ do you know?09:31
laze1989Checked out appmenu-qt5. It just looks for QMenuBar but QML seems to use something different. But fixing this seems to be beyond my current knowledge.09:32
Mirvseb128: no known workaround, probably a valid bug and appmenu-qt5 would need to support Quick Controls' menu bar too09:33
sil2100hmmm09:34
seb128Mirv, do you know who would be there right person to work on that?09:34
seb128is that sil2100? ;-)09:34
sil2100That would normally be me ;)09:34
Mirvseb128: yes, but anyone can of course volunteer :)09:34
sil2100I would love to work on that, just need to find some spare cycles09:34
seb128sil2100, can you triage the bug at least?09:35
sil2100seb128: sure, let me take a look at it09:35
seb128thanks09:36
darkxstLaney, can you push you builds to a ppa, I will try and take a look after dinner09:36
Laneydarkxst: kay, I commented again btw09:36
Laneyjust summarising what we just did09:36
darkxstLaney, did you restart u-s-d after killing the lightdm one?09:39
Laneyyep09:41
Laneydarkxst: ppa:laney/experimental should get them soon10:08
darkxstLaney, ok10:11

qenghobonjour, seb128. chromium-browser from trusty works, if you need a workaround. I expect to have it fixed today.10:22
seb128qengho, thanks, I downgraded but now it's give me "your profile can't be used because it's from a newer chromium version" errors10:22
seb128well, that downgrading to previous utopic version10:23
seb128not trusty10:23
qenghoseb128: the version in T is the same version. It won't do that.10:23
seb128I'm going to wait for today's update to have the fix10:23
qenghoOkay.10:23
seb128thanks10:23
darkxstcharles, are you planning to look at indicator-power port for upower 0.99?10:43
darkxstcharles, I took I quick glimpes at the code, the resuming signal needs to use PrepareForSleep (False)10:44
darkxstfrom logind10:44
darkxstdevice-changed signals need to become notify signals10:44
darkxstI would probably suggest dropping dbus calls, and just use the upower api directly10:45
darkxstI suspect you can drop you queue changed signals stuff now10:46
Laneydevice-added and device-removed still exist10:47
darkxstLaney, device-changed is gone10:48
Laneyyep10:48
darkxstdevice-remove has changed sig10:48
darkxstindicator-power queues all the device-changed signals to process them "soon"10:48
Sweetsharkseb128: yeah, saw that one. Some libs sneaked from libreoffice-base-drivers to libreoffice-base. will fix that ASAP.11:03
seb128Sweetshark, good morning11:03
Sweetsharkseb128: ;)11:03
seb128Sweetshark, thanks11:03
seb128Sweetshark, did you see the postinst syntax error as well?11:03
Sweetsharkseb128: yes, that one should be fixed with the latest upload (-3ubuntu1). Did you see a report against -3ubuntu1?11:04
seb128Sweetshark, I was updating my utopic laptop this morning, so yes? or is it running the script from the previous version once on upgrade?11:05
Sweetsharkseb128: so the postinst syntax error should never have gone out of -proposed.11:05
Sweetsharkseb128: ah, yeah. it is the postrm from the one you had from before.11:05
Sweetsharkseb128: which is why it would have been a pain if that one would have been widely deployed as it only hits when you move _away_ from the broken package.11:07
seb128Sweetshark, well, I don't have proposed enabled, so I only followed versions on utopic11:07
Sweetsharkseb128: hmm ...11:08
seb128Sweetshark, I had 1:4.2.4-0ubuntu411:10
seb128well, according to the dpkg log11:11
Sweetsharkseb128: so, lets detangle this mess. We had the _postrm_ fail (bug 1354557). You are seeing a _postinst_ issue though, not a _postrm_ one. On which package exactly and updating which version to which version?11:11
ubot5bug 1354557 in libreoffice (Ubuntu) "[ppa][packaging]libreoffice-base post-rm script syntax fail" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/135455711:11
Sweetsharkseb128: FWIW, libreoffice-base.preinst in 1:4.3.0-3ubuntu1 doesnt look faulty syntaxwise on first glance.11:13
Sweetsharkanyway ...11:14
seb128Sweetshark, on current utopic11:15
seb128libreoffice-base.postrm:if [ "$1" = abort-upgrade ] && dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt 1:4.3.0~beta1-1; then11:15
seb128that seems buggy11:15
seb128no?11:15
seb128"dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt 1:4.3.0~beta1-1"11:15
seb128or do you compare version with the output of another dpkg --compare-versions in a weird way?11:16
Sweetsharkseb128: arrgh. no. thats "git merge" running amok, I guess.11:17
Sweetsharkseb128: however, if you just updated to that, you should have run the postrm yet. That pleasure should happen only once you update/remove that pkgs, no?11:18
seb128Sweetshark, if the previous version doesn't have the same bug11:21
seb128or the upgrade would have run the script from the previous version and displayed the warning11:21
seb128well, anyway I don't think that made the upgrade buggy, the file conflict did11:22
darkxstLaney, xsettings error seems due to u-s-d not shutting down cleanly11:22
Laneydarkxst: right, that's why it goes away when killed11:23
Sweetsharkseb128: hohum, if that is a merge error it isnt mine :/ -- this is on debian too11:23
darkxstprobably also why you were getting lightdm owned u-s-d in your session11:24
seb128Sweetshark, still worth fixing I guess ;-)11:24

dgadomskihello everyone13:05
dgadomskiI could really use the desktop team expertise with creating a workaround for precise13:06
seb128hey dgadomski13:06
dgadomskihi seb12813:06
seb128sure, just ask your question ;-)13:06
dgadomskithe main issue is in glibc: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/+bug/121435213:06
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1214352 in LibreOffice Productivity Suite "GUINT32/64_SWAP_LE_BE macros do not enclose val argument in parentheses" [Critical,Confirmed]13:06
seb128oh, that one, tricky one13:06
dgadomskiso we suffer from a bug that renders in libreoffice and is caused by this error being propagated to gvfs13:07
dgadomskiI would like to keep the scope of the fix as small as possible13:07
dgadomskiideally replacing those macros with correct ones in gvfs should solve the problem13:08
dgadomskiI wanted to create an additional header file fixing those macros and including it after glib headers in gvfs13:08
dgadomskithat way we could release a patched version of gvfs as a workaround13:09
dgadomskiI would appreciate your opinion on this idea, do you see any threats of this approach?13:09
seb128desrt, hey, wb, do you have an opinion on ^13:14
seb128dgadomski, we discussed it with Sweetshark before, and we saw it as risky to change gvfs, since that's a service and interact with other components, it could be that using different macro on the "clients" and the service could make some client which currently work start misbehaving13:15
dgadomskiI was worried it may prove risky13:20
dgadomskithen I think we need to convince the customer that there is not much we can do about it13:21
seb128dgadomski, I think Sweetshark suggested maintaining a ppa/special build if they really wanted a version with the change, knowing it might have side effects/create other issues13:24
dgadomskithat's a good idea seb128, I will think about providing a workaround via ppa and ask the customer to give it a try in a test system13:26
seb128dgadomski, thanks13:26
dgadomskithanks seb12813:27
seb128yw!13:27
desrtouch.13:31
desrtseb128: in terms of managing SRUs i don't have much opinion here, i guess13:35
desrtbut i doubt that this would be a 'negative' change for someone...13:35
seb128desrt, could there be any issue if we rebuild gvfs with fixed macros but not other components? e.g could we end up with 2 components trying to communicate in an incompatible way?13:37
desrtseb128: it's pretty rare that we would use a specific (ie: nonhost) endianness for communication on the local machine13:37
desrtpretty much never on API13:38
