darkxstseb128, no, its needs grilo-plugins09:02
darkxstbut we will split them so there is not a whole lot of random/useless plugins in main09:02
darkxstseb128, but consider the tracker plugin a soft-dep09:03

LaneyHEY!09:09
didrocksit's a Laney!09:09
seb128hey Laney, how is u.k today? had a good w.e?09:10
darkxsthey Laney09:10
larsumorning Laney!09:11
darkxstLaney, re Gtk+ looks like we need a full core update for GNOME09:13
darkxstand wouldnt even consider that really until after .90 or .91 but thats well FFe territory09:14
Laneythere's somethign terrible going on with my interwebs, one second09:14
Laneybuh09:14
Laneyhad to restart n-m09:14
seb128just curious, why a gtk update enforces a GNOME update?09:14
Laneydarkxst: do you know what the problem is there?09:15
darkxstseb128, gtk window decorations09:15
seb128GTK is supposed to be abi/api compatible, what did they change? is that theming?09:15
Laneyit'd probably be enough to make us not do it I guess, don't want to ruin your stuff09:15
seb128not going to make larsu happy :-(09:15
darkxstseb128, GTK is now drawing window decorations for GNOME theme09:16
Laneyand hello, yes I had a good weekend!09:16
larsudarkxst: what's your problem with that? You need to update your theme?09:16
Laneywe did some DIY in preparation for a bike shed ;-)09:16
larsuwhat color does it have?09:16
darkxstlarsu, no mutter 3.14 don't support that09:16
seb128darkxst, how does that work? if you don't update g-s, etc, can't you just get decoration drawed the way they currently are?09:16
darkxstseb128, gnome theme is packaged in gtk+ now09:17
seb128can't we undo that easily?09:17
darkxstwe could backport the old theme, and loose any fixes made09:17
seb128e.g keep using adwaita09:17
larsuor just update mutter?09:17
seb128larsu, well, that's what he meant by update GNOME09:17
larsuupdate mutter != update gnome09:17
seb128larsu, they don't want an out of sync versions between g-s etc09:17
larsubut meh09:17
darkxstlarsu, there has been another major reworking of input device handling09:18
seb128but you know how things up when you try to mismatch components09:18
seb128+turn09:18
darkxstI don't feel comfortable splitting on mutter and g-s-d with that09:18
Laneylolz, bugzilla seems busted09:18
larsuseb128: fair enough09:18
darkxstLaney, Maintenance09:18
Laneyah some kind of upgrade09:18
larsuLaney: scheduled updatd09:18
larsustatus.gnome.org09:18
Laneydarkxst: is this a problem because adwaita is in gtk now?09:19
desrtLaney: old problem09:21
desrtdarkxst: i don't get why old mutter couldn't go on drawing the decorations.  is it because they'd mismatch the theme?09:21
darkxstLaney, well partly, but the main reason we use Adwaita is because upstream keep it in sync09:21
desrtthat's sort of a problem we already had for server-decorated windows09:21
darkxstdesrt, they scrapped the metacity window themes, and switched to gtk/css09:22
desrtdarkxst: ya.. .i get that09:22
darkxstmutter- 3.14 knows nothing of that09:22
desrtbut you seem to want to keep the old matter09:22
desrt*mutter09:22
darkxstdesrt, I am all for updating to 3.1609:22
darkxstbut not now09:22
desrtso it will still have the code for drawing old themes....09:22
desrti just don't understand why it would possibly cause a problem to upgrade gtk now09:23
darkxstdesrt, theme issues I guess09:23
desrtthey didn't remove the mutter theme drawing code from gtk... they removed it from mutter09:23
desrtdarkxst: ya... so the theme will be slightly out of sync... but nothing more than it was before09:23
darkxstdesrt, they changed the adwaita theme to accomadate the new decorations that is the problem09:23
darkxstdesrt, its pretty broken black titlebars etc09:24
desrtdarkxst: if you're planning to upgrade mutter later in the cycle anyway, then is a slight theme mismatch during development really a huge issue?09:24
desrt... something else sounds wrong09:24
desrtbecause if mutter is drawing server-side decorations then it should still be using the old theme (ie: nothing gtk does could affect it)09:25
darkxstdesrt, there is no metacity theme anymore09:25
darkxstadwaita is packaged in gtk+09:25
desrtonly the gtk css09:26
larsuadd it back?! Doesn't sound that hard09:26
desrtthe metacity theme is in gnome-themes-standard-data09:26
desrtas an xml file in /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/metacity-109:26
darkxstdesrt, maybe as an intermin solution09:35
desrtwell -- yes.... the longterm solution would be to upgrade to the new mutter09:35
desrtand until then there is no sense in blocking a gtk upgrade because of one little xml file09:35
desrt(okay... it's not particularly little, admittedly....)09:35
darkxstand it may not be that simple either09:36
darkxstthough I havent tried09:36
willcookeARGH!  I cant live like this any more....09:47

xclaesseseb128, does ubuntu's theme on vivid has support for GtkHeaderBar ?14:44
seb128xclaesse, what do you mean by "support"?14:45
xclaessemake it look like ubuntu14:45
seb128not really14:45
seb128also unity doesn't handle csd well14:45
seb128so you get no border on the windows using gtkheaderbar as decorations14:45
seb128they are difficult to resize as well14:45
xclaesseok, was trying gedit master in jhbuild on ubuntu 14.04, csd is indeed not well supported14:46
xclaessewas wondering if on vivid I would get nicer result14:46
xclaessehttp://people.collabora.com/~xclaesse/tmp/gedit.png14:46
larsuxclaesse: did you try with the Ambiance theme, like I suggested in #gtk?14:46
xclaesselarsu, that's why I asked here, they don't theme GtkHeaderBar, so that won't gain much14:47
xclaessewell, on the tabs it will probably14:47
larsuxclaesse: "they"? I added support for those a while ago. Not sure if it landed in utopic, though14:47
xclaesselarsu, GTK_THEME=Ambiance doesn't change anything, but I think I have to install the theme in jhbuild, no?14:49
xclaessemaybe some symlinking could do the trick14:49
larsuxclaesse: no, just include /usr/share in gedit's XDG_DATA_DIRS14:50
larsuor run it with GTK_DATA_PREFIX=/usr GTK_THEME=Ambiance14:51
larsu(iirc)14:51
xclaesseah... bah just did ln -s /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/ /opt/gnome/share/themes/14:51
xclaesseok indeed that's way smaller now14:51
Laneyhey larsu, do you know anything about GdkVisual? https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?id=4cf6edda55edb57228e9a1b545dd72c90c3d22af breaks opacity on the 'flash' thing that gnome-screenshot has14:54
Laneyit sets one here https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-screenshot/tree/src/cheese-flash.c#n98 and that makes _set_opacity not get called after that gtk+ commit14:56
kenvandineseb128, don't forget about silo 7, whenever you have time14:56
larsuLaney: not sure why they'd explicitely set the default visual - it should always be that15:04
larsuLaney: what happens if you take the set_visual() line out?15:04
Laneyworks but sometimes there's another white flash when the fade is finished15:05
larsueek15:05
Laneythe comment says something about shadows, could be that15:05
* larsu wonders why setting a visual will cause it not to render shadows15:06
larsuI think GTK_WINDOW_POPUP should do that15:06
larsuhm, they set a notification type hint as well15:07
larsuLaney: seems to work for me?!15:15
larsuLaney: are you testing on a composited wm?15:15
Laneyi'm using compiz15:16

larsuI'm on the one in the ppa15:16
Laney3.15.something15:16
Laneyya, that is15:16
larsuI see the same problem as you, but commenting the set_visual() line seems to make it work15:17
larsuugh, the fallback code is wrong :/15:18
larsuputs events on the main loop and then unrefs the object15:18
* larsu found out while trying to debug with a longer flahs15:19
larsuLaney: about to head out now (there's still sun!), but I'll take a look at it15:19
larsuLaney: is it urgent?15:19
* larsu might sit down in a cafe for a while15:19
Laneynot hugely15:19
Laneysomething which breaks with 3.1515:20
seb128kenvandine, is that rtm7 or vivid7?15:20
LaneyI noticed that the callback is called forever too15:20
Laneybecause of some double comparison lolz15:20
larsuLaney: ok. I'll try to get something until tomorrow when I step out of the plane (afternoon) at the latest15:20
Laneythat's the reason it's displayed forever15:20
Laneythe visual thing just causes it not to fade in15:20

Laneyin and out?15:20
xclaesseseb128, was trying gtk master, the file chooser does recursive search on type ahead. Ubuntu thanksfully reverted that in nautilus. Will you consider reverting that in gtk as well please? :D15:21
larsuLaney: ya, it's all kinds of messed up :/15:21
larsuLaney: I guess just nobody tested the fallback15:21
seb128xclaesse, not typeahead anymore?!15:21
larsusince it's all gnome-shell now15:21
kenvandineseb128, vivid15:21
seb128larsu, Laney, ^ btw, might be another issue with new gtk15:21
LaneyI guess so15:21
seb128kenvandine, anything specific you want me to try?15:22
kenvandinethe bluetooth fixes at least15:22
kenvandineyou know how to test those, i think15:22
seb128k15:22
seb128yeah15:22
kenvandineif you can test the translation fix too :)15:22
seb128sure15:22
kenvandinewhich i think is basically all the fixes :)15:22
xclaesseseb128, didn't try vivid, but with gtk master in jhbuild when I type ahead in the file chooser it lookup in all sub-dirs15:22
xclaesseseb128, so I get thousands of matches15:23
xclaesseseb128, and I cannot simply naviguat my folder hierarchy15:23
larsuI'll look into it15:23
seb128xclaesse, do you know if that's a setting we can turn off?15:23
xclaesseseb128, didn't investigate anything, was about to open an upstream bug to tell it's unusable, but bugzilla is down :p15:23
seb128hehe15:24
seb128please do what's it back up15:24
larsuscheduled maintenance15:24
xclaesseseb128, but given that's the default on nautilus as well upstrema, I guess it makes sense... in a way...15:24
seb128yeah15:24
larsudoesn't seem to be a setting15:25
seb128https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?id=de4427304c680c4d111ba92477a30f70befa2d0615:25
seb128not sure what that setting ^ does but looks like it could be it15:26
seb128setting in browse rather than search?15:26
xclaesseseb128, note that ctr+f does bring the old type ahead15:27
larsuseb128: looks like it, thanks. Maybe we'll need a small patch to make the old behaviour the default15:27
seb128right15:27
xclaesseseb128, but IMO the default should be the old way, then ctr+f for a recursive search15:27
seb128+115:27
xclaessethat's how it's made in nautilus on ubuntu15:27
xclaesseand IMO it makes much more sense15:28
seb128xclaesse, thanks for pointing it out15:28
xclaesseyou're welcome :)15:28
seb128kenvandine, bah, sorry, I screwed the translation one, they changed the order of context/text, pushed a fix for that to https://code.launchpad.net/~seb128/ubuntu-system-settings/security-use-ctr/+merge/24877115:44
seb128kenvandine, I tested with that fix, should be fix, bluetooth, etc work as expected15:44
kenvandineok, i'll rebuild15:45
seb128kenvandine, thanks, and sorry about that15:45
kenvandinenp15:45
seb128kenvandine, https://code.launchpad.net/~seb128/ubuntu-system-settings/categories-no-effect/+merge/248272 should also be trivial if you want one more15:45
kenvandinei'll do that one separately... already got 5 branches in this silo15:46
seb128but if not that can be in the next round15:46
kenvandineand i already clicked build :)15:46

seb128cyphermox, hey16:27
cyphermoxseb128: hey16:27
seb128cyphermox, have some minutes to talk settings/bt?16:28
cyphermoxsure16:28
seb128cyphermox, remember https://code.launchpad.net/~mathieu-tl/ubuntu-system-settings/unbreak-hid/+merge/243592 ?16:28
seb128cyphermox, I'm pondering adding that function back, wanted your opinion first16:28
cyphermoxhum, what for?16:29
seb128cyphermox, currently it lists all device, but if you try to pair with i.e a laptop, it's going to hit the16:29
seb128    default:16:29
seb128        qWarning() << "Nothing to connect: Unsupported device type.";16:29
seb128        return;16:29
seb128case16:29
seb128which means you click on "connect" in the ui and it brings you back to the device list16:30
seb128without any feedback on what happened and why16:30
cyphermoxhum, there is that16:30
seb128that's not good user experience :-)16:30
cyphermoxbut perhaps a better idea would be to grey the connect button in that case16:30
cyphermoxrather than not showing the devices at all16:30
seb128well, that's what that the code you dropped was doing16:30
seb128oh16:30
seb128it was showing the device by disabled16:30
seb128sure, we could move to disable the connect instead16:31
cyphermoxright16:31
seb128I should maybe first try what happens if I add the computer type to the case16:31
seb128maybe pairing a computer works16:31
cyphermoxhmm, not sure16:32
seb128even if we can't do much once it's paired16:32
cyphermoxeven if it did pair16:32
cyphermoxyeah ;)16:32
seb128e.g no file transfert or anything16:32
seb128hum16:32
cyphermoxthere's no one good answer for this, there's a couple of ways we can handle these devices we "don't support yet"16:32
seb128if I pair my laptop to my android phone I can use it to play music16:32
cyphermoxyeah16:33
seb128cyphermox, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/141986616:36
ubot5Launchpad bug 1419866 in ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) "[bluetooth] Computer pairing is unimplemeted but the UI still let you try it" [High,New]16:36
seb128cyphermox, opened that and assigned to mpt16:37
seb128just as a fyi16:37
seb128cyphermox, thanks for the feedback :-)16:37
cyphermoxargh16:37
cyphermoxso yeah, we really do need mpt or someone from design to make a decision :)16:38
seb128cyphermox, indeed16:39
seb128cyphermox, also my krillin advertize itself as a computer on bt, is that right?16:41
seb128cyphermox, my android phone advertize itself as a phone16:41
cyphermoxyeah16:41
cyphermoxwe need to fix up bluez to split out the config in two separate packages, make one for a "I'm a phone" and another one for "I'm a computer.16:42
seb128k16:42
cyphermoxotoh, much of that will be done automatically once we're on bluez 516:42
cyphermoxby way of systemd and some updated system code16:43
seb128cyphermox, oh, also it seems that the device is always discoverable, where the spec states it should only be when you are on the bluetooth screen16:43
seb128is that known?16:43
cyphermoxit shouldn't be always discoverable no16:43
seb128and where should it be reported?16:43
cyphermoxthat was working fine16:43
cyphermoxmark it against u-s-s, bluez by itself doesn't usually put devices discoverable16:43
cyphermoxbut I wonder if that might be different based on the bluetooth driver16:43
seb128cyphermox, not a settings issues, I just rebooted my device16:45
seb128it's discoverable as soon as it boot16:45
seb128I didn't use/unlock it yet16:45
cyphermoxyuck16:45
seb128can't be setting since that never ran16:45
cyphermoxheh, bluez then16:45
seb128thanks16:45
cyphermoxbut I'm pretty sure we had tried this and it was working properly16:45
seb128that one might be an important issue16:45
cyphermoxthat's why it seems like it's possibly a driver issue16:46
seb128isn't that sort of a security problem?16:46
seb128also use power?16:46
cyphermoxwell, yes16:46
cyphermoxit's bad16:46
cyphermoxsomeone will need to figure out why that is16:46
cyphermoxwere you testing this on mako?16:46
seb128cyphermox, no, bq16:48
seb128cyphermox, who do you recommend pinging about the issue?16:48
cyphermoxhum, you already pinged them I guess16:49
seb128cyphermox, if them is you :-)16:50
cyphermoxyeah16:50
seb128I didn't mention it out of here, well out of the bug16:50
cyphermoxmaybe let ChickenCutlass know too. I see he doesn't seem to be here16:50
cyphermoxI'll see if I get the same thing on my mako, at least so I know whether bluez is really busted of if it's a driver thing like I really hope it is16:51
cyphermoxboo, it seems good here on mako :/16:54
cyphermoxat least, according to bluez-test-adapter16:54
seb128what is that command supposed to say?16:55
seb128$ bluez-test-adapter discovering16:56
seb128016:56
seb128on the bq16:56
cyphermoxhum16:57
seb128that seems to always return 0, on desktop as well16:57
cyphermoxyes the device still shows up elsewhere?16:57
seb128visibility turned off or on16:57
seb128yes16:57
seb128my laptop lists it16:57
cyphermoxwell, it behaves correctly on my mako16:57
cyphermox1 when u-s-s bt page is open, 0 otherwise16:57
seb128well, 0 here16:58
seb128but the device is listed by other computers16:58
cyphermoxright16:58
seb128so that flag is not respected16:58
seb128driver issue I guess?16:58
cyphermoxpossibly, but I'm not done testing :)16:58
cyphermoxgah16:59
cyphermoxstill getting the right behavior on mako :/16:59
seb128cyphermox, thanks for testing17:00
cyphermoxthis is not good, I don't like driver issues like this17:00
cyphermoxthe android drivers are already busted enough as it is that we don't need to find more issues ;)17:01
seb128cyphermox, is "bluez-test-adapter discovering" supposing to return 1 when visibility = true?17:01
seb128cyphermox, because on my vivid desktop it always returns 0, even when I toggle the visible switch in the indicator or gnome ui17:02
cyphermoxno17:02
cyphermoxbluez-test-adapter discoverable17:02
seb128oh17:02
seb128cyphermox, that returns 1 on krillin17:03
seb128without using settings17:03
cyphermoxdiscovering is for whether you're currently running a scan, but that part is more less simple17:03
cyphermoxyeah, I believe you17:03
pmcgowanseb128, I get 0 on krillin right now17:04
seb128cyphermox, "disoverable off" works17:04
seb128pmcgowan, what happens if you open the settings bluetooth page and close settings?17:04
cyphermoxseb128: ok17:05
pmcgowanseb128, seems to work right, 1 when on page and 0 otherwise17:05
seb128pmcgowan, hum, k, I wonder what is wrong on my krillin17:05
pmcgowanoh let me do what you said17:05
seb128pmcgowan, do you run rtm or vivid?17:05
pmcgowanseb128, aha if you close settings while on the page it stays on17:06
seb128k17:06
kenvandineseb128, silo 7 is rebuilt, can you mark it as tested on the spreadsheet?17:06
seb128cyphermox, is something storing the state accross reboots?17:06
cyphermoxseb128: it's not supposed to be saved17:06
seb128seems to be17:06
cyphermoxhum, I was on vivid though17:06
seb128pmcgowan, ^ I guess that's the issue maybe?17:07
seb128pmcgowan, like if you do that it stays to 117:07
seb128and that persists over reboot for me17:07
pmcgowanseb128, let me reboot and see what it is17:07
cyphermoxseb128: you are right, it's saved in /var/lib/bluetooth/<address>/config17:07
seb128pmcgowan, ^17:07
pmcgowanseb128, confirmed both, stays set over reboot and in the config file17:08
seb128cyphermox, pmcgowan, commented on the bug17:09
cyphermoxseb128: I wonder if you had a bad crash while the bt window was open?17:09
seb128cyphermox, no, I just worked on that panel and it's easier to swipe settings out and restart17:10
seb128rather than exit the panel and close it17:10
seb128e.g I use the switched and close it from there17:10
seb128switcher17:10
