LaneyI turned off 'quiet' with the previous debugging09:39
Laneyand 'splash'09:39
Laneyso no plymouth09:39
seb128k09:39
seb128well, anyway didrocks and I are seeing such issues sometime as well09:39
Laneydid you look into it?09:39
LaneyI see it every time as far as I can tell09:39
seb128I tried, without luck09:41
seb128tried to boot with systemd.debug-shell09:41
seb128but I can't go to the debug console with ctrl-alt-f9 then09:42
seb128not sure how to get infos09:42
seb128it doesn't happen every time for me09:42
darkxstseb128, debug console is only available during boot up, I think09:43
didrocksmy issue is that dbus is spammed with requests09:43
didrocksdarkxst: no, it's also available on shutdown09:44
Laneyis there a command to do a 'systemd' shutdown?09:44
seb128darkxst, /usr/share/doc/systemd/README.Debian mentions it as a way to debug shutdown problems09:44
didrocksLaney: what do you mean by systemd shutdown?09:44
Laneypoweroff just turns the system off09:45
didrockswell, that's what you want? And then, go the debug shell09:45
didrocksas it's stalling, it's easier09:46
Laneysystemctl poweroff09:46
Laney?09:46
didrocksthis is the target called by poweroff AFAIK09:46
Laneypoweroff bypasses systemd09:46
Laneyit's mentioned http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Debugging/#index2h1 as a first step09:46
didrocksshutdown -h now clearly poweroff your systemd normally09:46
Laney(and indeed does work)09:46
didrockswith -f09:47
Laneydoes that mean bypass init or so?09:47
didrocks  -f --force     Force immediate halt/power-off/reboot09:47
didrocksso, I guess only -f bypass init09:47
Laneyok, sounds good then!09:48
didrocksnormal poweroff should call the poweroff systemd target09:48
Laneybah, systemctl poweroff worked!09:49
darkxstdidrocks, ok, didnt realise that09:50
didrocksLaney: was your system still slow to shutdown?09:50
didrockshttp://paste.ubuntu.com/10386346/ is my shutdown09:51
didrocksI bet the dbus spam is my issue09:51
Laneynot really09:51
didrocksI would be interested to know what tries to still send dbus traffic…09:52

dpmpitti, seb128, hi, quick question, would you know how to read the user locale via dbus?10:59
willcookedarkxst, :D10:59
pittidpm: looking whether accountsservice has that, but in general you can't11:02
pittiit's impossible to reliably detect the locale for a user without a running session; with a running session you can look into the env of its session leader11:03
larsupitti, dpm: accountsservice has some parts of the locale (such as keyboard layout and language)11:03
pittidpm: ah, so org.freedesktop.Accounts /org/freedesktop/Accounts/User1000 org.freedesktop.accounts.User has a "Language" property which you could look at11:04
dpmlarsu, pitti, yes, Language is the one I'd be interested in11:04
pittidpm: but bear in mind that users can change it in their own .pam_environment or .bashrc or whereever, so it's not reliable11:04
dpmack11:04
darkxstand ubuntu accountservice is patched to all hell, so won't ever work on any other distro11:05
darkxst(atleast for locale/language handling11:06
larsudarkxst: language is an upstream feature11:08
larsudarkxst: keyboard layout isn't11:08
darkxstlarsu, maybe I am confusing the whole LANG/LANGUAGE mess, but still ubuntu saves lots of things in accountsservice that are not upstream11:18
Laneywe make use of vendor extensions for new things now11:21
Laneystill some older stuff tho11:21
* Laney cries at spotify now segfaulting11:22

=== MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch
dpmhi seb128, no worries. I was just wondering about ways to find out the user locale without using env variables. We're developing an HTML5 help app and there is no easy way to load translations as QML or C++ apps. Since then, I've found out that if it's set correctly, we can read the locale from the window.navigator.language JS object12:35

attente_hi guys15:32
attente_not much15:32
attente_cleaned up indicator-keyboard fcitx-transition MP15:32
attente_continue porting fcitx-qimpanel to Qt 515:32
seb128what is that needed?15:33
seb128so it can run under mir?15:33
attente_yeah, but i'm not even sure if porting to qt 5 will make it work15:33
seb128sorry about the fcitx transition, it's still on my todolist, I'm going to put that in a ppa, likley tomorrow15:34
attente_no problem15:34
seb128is ibus having qt5 support?15:34
seb128or why do we prefer to work on fcitx things?15:34
attente_ibus doesn't seem to work at all in the demo shell15:34
attente_at least fcitx allows for text input15:35
attente_but the problem is that the candidate window that fcitx-qimpanel provides is qt 415:35
attente_so it isn't working with mir at all15:35
seb128k15:35
seb128good luck with that15:36
attente_this might all be a waste of time tbh...15:36
seb128oh, can you ask a ffe for the fcitx landing?15:36
seb128we missing feature freeze, sorry about that :-/15:36
attente_seb128: sure, there's actually an old one from last cycle :/15:36
seb128good, less work :-)15:36
seb128about fcitx, I wouldn't spend too much effort on that15:36
seb128for what we know we might still prefer ibus and investigating why it's not working might be a better use of ressources15:37

seb128dgadomski, hey15:40
dgadomskihello guys15:40
dgadomskiI would appreciate your opinion regarding 2 issues:15:40
dgadomskiI wondering about status of bug #445333. Was there any regression reported for Vivid? Are there any chances of backporting this further to Utopic (although Trusty is the target I actually care about)?15:40
ubot5bug 445333 in gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu Trusty) "remember password on printing to windows printers does not work" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/44533315:40

seb128I'm adding it to my list if some other pilots doesn't beat me to it15:41
dgadomskigreat, thanks15:42
seb128seems like most reviewers skip over it15:42
seb128yw15:42
dgadomskiThe other topic is a bit more complicated15:42
dgadomskiOne of the users (who extensively uses ACL) mounts samba shares using nautilus. Unfortunately it mounts them without needed options (user_xattr,acl). There is an upstream bug regarding this (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585423), but it seems abandoned due to an overcomplicated GUI. Was this subject ever discussed? I was thinking about a simpler approach: e.g. providing smb mount options via an env variable for all smb share15:42
dgadomskid.15:42
ubot5Gnome bug 585423 in general "per-mount options" [Enhancement,Unconfirmed]15:42
dgadomskiDo you think the env-based approach could be of any use in other scenarios?15:43
jibelsil2100, there are some bad bugs, like no second SIM (fix in progress) no keyboard on 1st boot, problems with indicators and notifications, the launcher, the clock, ...15:44
jibelI didn't review everything in detail15:44
seb128jibel, we are in a meeting, can you use another channel please?15:44
seb128dgadomski, I don't have an opinion on that, seems a bit complex for the meeting, maybe you can email the desktop list about that one?15:45
attente_what about adding like a gsettings key or something?15:45
jibelseb128, ah sorry, wrong channel, it was not meant for this one.15:45
seb128jibel, no worry15:45

didrocksUbuntu Make:15:46
didrocks- released ubuntu Make 0.6 adding 5 new platforms (entirely backed by community): rubymine, pycharm educational, pycharm pro, webstorm, phpstorm. Also add zsh support: http://blog.didrocks.fr/post/Ubuntu-Make-community-releases-0.6-with-5-new-supported-platforms15:46
didrocks- dove back in the daily tests which were disabled since CI moved their infra in December. As no answer from the team, got back up the VMs myself, change the jenkins jobs from udtc -> ubuntu make and rerun the tests. Took new snapshots to reduce vms update time from 40 minutes to 5 minutes. Good news is that only one tests over the ~340, only one was failing, and it was a (minor) real issue. Fixed now15:46
didrocksin trunk!15:46
didrocksBluez 5:15:46
didrocks- talked to the phonefoundation team about the Touch side, still in progress, but couldn't get any ETA. @willcooke: do you mind getting that up on manager's level maybe to get some details and know if it's still doable for vivid's timeframe (with a FFe)?15:46
didrocksSystemd:15:46
didrocks- the fsckd patch is finally applied upstream! Talked to debian: next step would be to get at least default themes supporting systemd fsck + the debian one. I will handle this. Also, will need to update various ubuntu flavors plymouth themes (as it's based on the ubuntu one, should be easy).15:46
didrocks- spent 2 days bisecting/debugging/chasing with Martin the boot issue that seb128 and laney experienced first with systemd 219. The commit is now reverted.15:46
didrocksMisc:15:46
didrocks- a lot (but fractionated in time) of patch piloting/sponsoring15:47
didrocks- archive admin duties15:47

seb128didrocks, thanks, good work on ubuntu make, and sorry about the systemd thing and trying to blame it on your fsck changes :-)15:48

seb128hehe15:48
didrockshappy it wasn't it though :p15:48
seb128didrocks, @bluez5 doesn't really seem totally ready on our side as well, but let's maybe discuss that off meeting (UI issues still, desktop seems not visible here, some bugs that might still be to hit)15:49

larsuhi15:54
larsuI did mostly the bluez5 conversion and hit a few problems15:55
larsuas discussed this morning15:55
larsumajor issue is that lots of UI is missing and I think that if we change it, we should have design15:55
larsua possible way around that is to import gnome-bluetooth into u-c-c before it lost the wizard but after it gained bluez5 support15:56
larsu(should be possible, but haven't fully looked into it yet)15:56
seb128right15:56
larsuI also did some indicator bug triage and reviews this week15:56
larsualso uitk icon theme issues again15:56
larsu(rectangular icons \o/)15:57
larsualso looked into gnome-terminal's menu weirdness in unity (prompted by a bug about the set-app-id stuff)15:57
larsumaybe we should just drop the whole "show menubar" ui, as that doesn't make sense on unity15:57
larsu</larsu>, I think15:58
seb128larsu, thanks15:58
* larsu would appreciate input on the bluez5 issue15:58
didrockslarsu: on bluez5: how is GNOME handling the missing UI bits? they are part of the shell?15:58
seb128I'm unsure what to do15:58
Laneymaybe key that on gtk-shell-shows-menubar or something15:58
larsuLaney: ya, that's what I was thinking. One of the terminal maintainers uses unity, so we have a chance...15:58
larsudidrocks: there's a new widget in gnome-bluetooth that handles everything, but it's very gnome315:59
Laneynod15:59
larsudidrocks: wizard was dropped15:59
didrockslarsu: right, so it's the g-c-c UI we saw, but it's feature complete, right?15:59
didrockseven if it's very gnome3-ui like15:59
larsudidrocks: yes, indeed15:59
didrocksso, what does prevent us for landing this as a first step?16:00
larsudidrocks: I did that first, so that we unblock16:00
larsunot sure :)16:00
didrocksand then, see if we have time to reland the old UI16:00
didrocks(which I doubt, as we'll prioritize the touthc system-settings)16:00
didrockstouch*16:00
larsumakes sense to me, but let's take this after the meeting16:00
didrocksyeah, let's discuss here16:00

Laneynope16:01
Laneycan file one16:01
seb128didrocks, did you try the new UI16:01
seb128it has like a solid bg you can't even see the controls16:01
didrocksseb128: yeah, I did few months ago, didn't retry recently16:01
seb128on my vivid machine the machine is not discoverable from other devices16:01
didrockshum, that's weird, doesn't seem to be UI related though16:02
seb128like I did try to pair with a car earlier for testing/to see if bluez5 was working better, the car wouldn't list thhe desktop16:02
seb128where it works on bluez416:02
larsuLaney: please do, makes it easier to track16:02
Laneyack16:02
larsuLaney: if you don't mind16:02
LaneyI just wanted to know if you were willing :-)16:02
seb128well, in any case I don't think we stabilized/tested that stack enough, going to still need some work16:02
Laneythanks!16:02
larsusure sure16:02
seb128we can continue that discussion after the meeting I guess16:02

seb128ok, my turn16:08
seb128• helped debugging unity8 desktop stuck on loading battery icons, tested fix and confirmed it resolves the issue16:08
seb128• helped nessita to investigate a meld issue, found upstream fix, update to a new version including it16:08
seb128• joined discussion about gtk hidpi scaling issues under ubiquity and unity-greeter, proposed some unity-settings-daemon changes16:08
seb128• review of e.u.c top issues, triaged and looked at some16:08
seb128• spent half a day trying to debug systemd boot issues without real luck16:08
qenghoWeird how printing a project in GSoC every year.16:08
seb128• looked at some issues with the telephony/ofono/indicator stack on the rtm, filed bugs, provided debug info, etc16:08
seb128• tried bluez5 ppa/transition16:08
seb128• started looking at bluetooth/car pairing issues16:08
seb128• ubuntu-system-settings16:08
seb128∘ changed the bluetooth panel to allow pairing only when the ui is focussed (avoiding to let the option enabled when switching out/closing it)16:08
seb128∘ updates: fixed incorrect anchoring leading to truncated label16:08
seb128∘ some code reviews16:08

seb128* Uploaded a fix for pulseaudio to make sure flat volumes was diabled by default again. It was accidentally re-enabled during the merge/update process and migration to the Debian pulseaudio git repo.16:09
seb128* Finally tracked down and submitted fixes for unity 7's dash result view grid accessibility bugs. YAY!16:09
seb128* Starte work on improving more dash accessibility, the scope/lense selection toolbar, and filter results. Could be considered features, so will evaluate whether I'll push for them to be included in vivid once they're done.16:09

seb128thanks everyone16:14
didrocksthanks16:14
Sweet5hark1seb128: thx16:14
didrocksseb128: larsu: so bluez5, I can see my phone, but yeah, pairing is failing here16:15
seb128:-/16:15
didrocksmaybe we should bring cyphermox into the discussion as well? He's the one knowing the lowest level details16:15
didrocksbluez never have been reliable to me anyway… even 416:15
seb128yeah, but I guess those are issues that need somebody with slots to sit down and look at what is wrong16:15
didrocksright16:16
cyphermoxindeed16:16
cyphermoxseb128: so what you mentioned earlier was for bluez 5?16:16
didrockscyphermox: yeah, we were talking about the transition16:16
seb128cyphermox, "what"? just during the meeting the laptop pairing issue16:16
seb128cyphermox, my car pairing problem/debugging is on krillin/bluez416:17
cyphermoxok16:17
larsudidrocks: pairing works totally fine for me. Is that a bluez issue or a ui issue?16:17
didrockshere is with a laptop/phone with luez516:17
didrockslarsu: I don't really know, I don't see the device on the ui, I can see the laptop on the phone though16:18
didrockslarsu: even if visible is set to off16:18
didrocks(using gnome-control-center from the ppa)16:18
didrockscyphermox: did you retry the transition ppa recently (with gnome-control-center/indicators and all the fuzz?)16:18
larsudidrocks: can you check if bluez found it with bluetoothctl or checking the org.bluez interface in d-feet?16:19
cyphermoxdidrocks: not in a bit, but I can try now16:20
didrockscyphermox: would be awesome!16:20
didrockslarsu: so, the g-c-c ui is empty16:20
didrocks$ bluetoothctl16:20
didrocks[NEW] Controller 7C:E9:D3:BC:AE:FB ubuntu-0 [default]16:20
didrocks[NEW] Device 98:D6:F7:35:22:C3 Did16:20
didrocks-> it sees the "Did" device with the phone16:20
didrockswhich is*16:20
larsuok so it's there but the ui doesn't know it16:20
didrocks(why does the UI has the visibility checkbox as from what you told visibility is set to on when you open the panel)16:21
didrocksright16:21
didrocksusing g-c-c, not u-c-c16:21
larsuthe ui doesn't have a checkbox?!16:21
larsuonly a on/off switch for powering bluetooth down16:21
didrockshum, so maybe g-c-c doesn't load the right thing16:21
didrocks *** 1:3.14.2-2ubuntu3 016:21
didrocksfrom the transition ppa (the version I uploaded)16:21
didrockslarsu: I guess you are not using the ppa but trunk?16:23
didrocksor jhbuild16:23
larsudidrocks: I'm using my branch :) It's got UI changes now though and you can't do all the things16:23
larsudidrocks: https://code.launchpad.net/~larsu/unity-control-center/bluez516:23
didrockslarsu: for g-c-c?16:24
didrocksok, so u-c-c16:24
didrockslarsu: did you try g-c-c? maybe something is wrong in the ppa then16:24
larsudidrocks: ya, the ppa doesn't have the right version, it's buggy for me as well16:24
larsudidrocks: if you build up to r12814 in my branch you get the right thing16:24
larsudidrocks: I can make a separate branch if you prefer16:25
didrockslarsu: no worry, building from your branch16:25
didrockswe'll need to check g-c-c then16:25
didrockslarsu: ok, it was g-c-c.real vs g-c-c16:31
cyphermoxseb128_: didrocks: could the problem be with pulseaudio?16:43
cyphermox6.0 is in the archive now, but it might not have bluez 5 support?16:43
cyphermox(not done checking)16:43
seb128_cyphermox, it doesn't indeed, since that's a build time option to enable the plugin (iirc)16:44
cyphermoxright16:44
cyphermoxthat won't help pairing phones or audio devices16:44
* larsu is starting to feel we're not ready for bluez516:45
didrockslarsu: switch "connection" to 1 switch it back to 016:47
didrocksI can see with your u-c-c branch it now16:47
larsugood16:49
didrockslarsu: but the connection" thing is weird, isn't it?16:50
didrocksshouldn't it be to on?16:50
didrockslarsu: or that's just for pairing?16:50
didrocksI can't send a file to the phone, but that was already an issue on bluez 416:51
larsudidrocks: the connection thing is really weird. I'm not sure why we have it at all16:51
larsuit's after pairing to try to make a connection to the device16:52
didrockshum, but it seems to be connected already16:52
larsuI think we should just always make a connection when the device is available16:52
didrocksyeah16:52
larsudidrocks: ya, it's also buggy (the switch)16:52
didrocksthe rest seems to work to me16:53
larsuwith the weird ui, though16:54
didrocksyeah, would it be a huge change in your opinion to get that fixed?16:55
larsudidrocks: ish. I started backporting some stuff, but gnome-bluetooth is missing the wizard for example16:55
larsuI do think the wizard is outdated16:55
didrocksdo we really need the wizard?16:55
larsubut also that we should properly design a new thing if we change stuff at all16:56
didrocksright16:56
larsuno, we don't really need it and my branch gets by without it16:56
didrockswhat do we miss in the current upstream UI?16:56
larsubut the branch is missing some stuff, like pairing and unpairing :)16:56
didrocksapart from the weird "connexion" thing16:56
larsuwe could use it, but I'm not sure people will like it16:57
didrocksdo they like the current wizard UI? :p16:57
* didrocks never liked it16:57
didrocksbut I agree, at least, it's not a surprise16:57
larsume neither16:57
larsujust saying that exchanging a bad ui for another bad ui is not a good idea16:57
didrocksagreed16:58
larsu(it's not necessarily bad, just very different from what we have in other panels)16:58
didrocksbut system-settings isn't going to cope soon16:58
didrockshard decision…16:58
larsubut then, u-c-c is inconsistent like crazy anyway...16:58
didrocksyeah16:59
seb128is it?17:00
larsuseb128: ya. My #1 complaint is all the different label styles we have17:00
seb128it's not really consistant17:00
seb128but at the same time it's not that inconsistant either17:01
seb128like the UI are not from different world/types17:01
larsubold, dim, left-aligned, with trailing colon17:01
larsuand opposites and all combinations17:01
larsuseb128: indeed17:01
larsuseb128: we managed to stay away from gnome3-style lists, for example17:01
seb128correct17:03
seb128and I think getting one of those would be a strong increase in inconsistency17:03
larsudefinitely17:04
larsuwhich is why I'm against that17:04
seb128k17:05
seb128sorry I missed part of the backlog, walking between car for bt testing and here17:05
seb128I though your17:05
seb128<larsu> but then, u-c-c is inconsistent like crazy anyway...17:05
seb128was a "we already are inconsistent, we can as well take a bit more with the GNOME3 Ui"17:05
didrocksso would you suggest we spend time to build a new UI that will be dropped once system settings is converged?17:07
seb128didrocks, not especially17:10
seb128I would suggest we "fork" the old gnome-bluetooth/copy it in u-c-c17:10
seb128as we did for e.g gnome-desktop17:10
seb128it's used nowadays and mostly working17:10
didrocksyeah, but it's not bluez5 compliant17:12
larsudidrocks: I'll try to extract a version that can do bluez5 but still has all the ui bits tomorrow17:13
larsuI'll report back how well that works17:13
didrocksok, keep us posted larsu, thanks for digging!17:13

dobeymlankhorst: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10392121/ <- that doesn't seem right. i can't use wine, or skype, or ubuntu-emulator, or compile lots of things if i want lts-utopic xorg?17:19
dobeyhmm, well i've mostly made that not happen with listing a bunch of other packages, i think17:29
mlankhorstdobey: or install libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-utopic:i38617:50
dobeyyeah, that's one of the things i had to install. plenty of others too17:53
mlankhorstthat's the main one, for libgl at least, ubuntu-emulator might need some other 32-bits packages too17:54
willcookeseb128, I now know how to get OSK working on Desktop Next \o/  Should be worth including. Maybe we need to wait for a few things to land upstream first though18:00
=== alan_g is now known as alan_g|EOD
mlankhorstdobey: maybe I should make a mesa-lts-vivid and mesa-dev-lts-vivid that depend on all the packages18:08
dobeymlankhorst: it would be nice if apt were just smarter about resolving the deps. i still had to get rid of some other -dev packages (clutter and such) that were installed, and i noticed their "apt-cache depends" output didn't have the "|foo-lts-utopic" dependencies. maybe a little more Provides: magic would help that? not sure18:14
mlankhorstdobey: patches welcome :p18:14
mlankhorstdobey: all renamed packages already have provides for their unrenamed equivalents18:15

xnoxsarnold: it's trivial to get ipv6 tunnel...... there is no excuse20:02
sarnoldxnox: well... he.net tunnels are unreliable, we've got a few dozen bugreports from folks who can't get updates because a routing issue in he.net or one of their upstreams :/20:02
xnoxsarnold: well, i believe i'm ipv6 native and test ipv6 website show good reachability.20:03
sarnoldxnox: native ipv6 sounds nice. *sniff* enjoy the turtle!20:06
xnoxsarnold: well, my vps has native ipv6, and tagged tinc vpn on top of it - and i use ips from the block assigned to my vpn to reassign/reroute to my vpn clients.20:07
xnoxsarnold: inside vpn the traffic is ipv6 only. and i use nat-less public ipv6 throughout.20:07
xnoxsarnold: ..... and cringe hoping i got my firewall correctly.20:07
