tjaaltonrobert_ancell: hi, i'm gone until monday, but in general one snapshot before FF, and I checked with upstream that this should've been a stable-ish release10:58
robert_ancelltjaalton, ok, I'll just raise the issues with upstream.10:59
tjaaltonrobert_ancell: ickle is quite responsive in fixing these and/or pointing out commits that fix things10:59
tjaaltontoo bad there hasn't been a single upstrean snapshot since december..10:59
robert_ancelltjaalton, you mean a release by upstream?11:00
robert_ancellI'm not aware of their release process11:00
tjaaltonright, .917 is the latest and old by now11:00
tjaaltonno stable release in over two years..11:01
robert_ancelltjaalton, did you mean we should have made a snapshot or upstream should have made a .918 release?11:03
robert_ancelltjaalton, just thinking for next cycle, should we regularly update by taking snapshots?11:03
seb128tjaalton, hey, not going to bother you much if you are off, but just one question. is bug #1417980 something we need to fix if we want to use libinput? what happens without the usd/ucc changes? the settings are not working?11:05
ubot5`bug 1417980 in unity-control-center (Ubuntu) "Add support for unified Xorg input driver" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/141798011:05

hikikoTrevinho, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyMbW4Iykqc and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTo2JtBi8so11:07
tjaaltonrobert_ancell: dunno if another snapshot this cycle would've helped. but it doesn't help that upstream is in git-master-forever -mode..11:07
robert_ancelltjaalton, yeah, it's kind of frustrating. Sorry to bother you, enjoy you break!11:08
tjaaltonseb128: yeah, settings won't work, I'd say it would be best to switch early, fedora defaults to it already, and it would then share the same plumbing with mir11:09
seb128tjaalton, k, so on next cycle opening would be good ... how would one test that? install -libinput and change options and see if they work?11:09
tjaaltononly issues I know of is some pointer acceleration issues have been reworked upstream but not released yet, but that should arrive by next month for sure11:10
seb128k11:10
tjaaltonjust install -libinput11:10
tjaaltonit'll override -evdev and -synaptics then11:10

seb128robert_ancell, yeah, that was a compiz issue which has been fixed I think14:15
robert_ancellseb128, no, I worked around that in the intel driver. I need a dmesg log for upstream and mine is fully of touchscreen issues which will be confusing.14:17
seb128robert_ancell, you did? when? I though popey confirmed it was compiz back then by trying their ppa14:18
robert_ancellseb128, this is a different issue. Saviq and others were getting it. I'm sure someone here had it too..14:19
seb128robert_ancell, oh, sorry, I read popey's bug number14:20

Laneythat dupe seems wrong14:20
seb128robert_ancell, I didn't have the exit bug, Saviq and olli did14:20
Laneythe "How to fix it" doesn't apply in this case14:20
seb128Laney, come here and participate ;-)14:21
seb128they don't watch IRC14:21
Laneymaybe I just undupe it14:21
seb128if you think it's wrong maybe undup and improve the description14:22
seb128or explain them why you think it's not a dup14:22
desrtseb is brutal14:23
desrtgoes to meetings just to have a nicer chair to IRC from14:23
seb128lol14:23
LaneyI think the description is fine, no?14:23
larsuthe prescription is fine, ya14:23
seb128they both seem "stop listing results" to me14:23
LaneyThis sometimes happens for one search but either re-entering the search or toggling the lens has always fixed it in the past for me. This time neither of these steps work.14:23
Laneyvs.14:24
LaneyHow to fix it once it happens:14:24
LaneyA)type something and either hit escape or delete what you have typed.14:24
LaneyB)Check "application" in filters in the Dash (it gets unchecked)14:24
Laney?14:24
seb128titles are identical I guess that's the bit that needs to be better worded14:24
seb128"sometime dash doesn't display results until some action is done"14:26
seb128"sometime dash stop displaying results until unity is restarted"14:26
seb128or whatever the difference is14:26
Laneyok but people should still read the description14:27
Laneyit's not realistic to expect the title to be able to convey all nuances of a particular bug14:28
seb128I guess in an ideal world they would14:28
seb128just not enough hours in the day for that14:29
Laneyto read?14:29
Laneyyou have to understand the problem to fix it14:29
Laneyanyway I changed them, hope you like it more now14:29
seb128thanks14:30
seb128well, I'm just said that when you try to clean a buglist that long you can't spent 5 minutes on every bug14:31
seb128so good titles help to avoid errors ;-)14:31

willcookelarsu, I'm easy.  I guess we get back to the hotel and then freshen up etc and head over.  I'd suggest we get a cab/Uber because public transport looks like more effort than I'm willing to expend.  Uber will be about 10 GBP each way.  If we Uber then we can come and go as we please14:34
