Mirvquestions with QUESTION: prefix14:00
tsdgeos_webi'll listen14:00
mhall119QUESTION: 5 years is a long time to stay on the same version of Qt, has there been any discussion of adding it to the list of things we will upgrade in LTS point releases without using a PPA?14:04
mhall119I'm asking more for desktops than phones14:08
tsdgeos_webQUESTION: Wouldn't it make more sense to aim for Qt 5.6 that is also going to be an LTS so it's a good match?14:09
jrjrtgergif qt has a good test suite, than backporting it should be easier now with the new SRU procedure14:09
mhall119tsdgeos_web: Qt does LTS releases?14:09
tsdgeos_webmhall119: Qt 5.6 will be the first14:09
jrjrtgergbackporting point releases I mean14:09
mhall119tsdgeos_web: brilliant14:09
vitimitiHi14:10
jrjrtgergif we know it's going to be an qt-LTS we can start shipping the beta.. thoughts?14:11
jrjrtgerganyone know how long the QT5.6 LTS is supported for?14:12
jrjrtgergQUESTION: what can we (the community) do to help land qt5.5?14:15
jrjrtgergoh, what's the bug link?14:15

tsdgeos_weba cat! the internet is happy!14:17
vitimitihahahaha14:19
vitimitiI will test it14:21
tsdgeos_webQUESTION: For the phone, have we investigated in having two sets of Qt available so that old apps don't break but new apps can use newer Qts?14:21
vitimitiI'm on xenial, anyway, I will add the PPA now14:21
vitimitiBTW: using the webbrowser-app is gorgeous right now, I'm only missing the ability to download files with it14:22

vitimitiWith the ci-train-ppa-service/landing-012 PPA I'm getting an upgrade of 145 packages, and 3 packages removed (which are the calibre suit, basically)14:24
sgclark2we need 5.5 now really14:25
yofelwe'll tell you if we need it, for now we need 5.5 asap14:25
sgclark2not yet14:25

tsdgeos_webjrjrtgerg: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtbase-opensource-src/+bug/150894514:27
vitimitiQUESTION: Since the PPA shouldn't delete pacakges, but calibre gets removed, where can I report it?14:27
Mirvthank you, I'm obviously here on IRC still14:27
jrjrtgergthanks!14:27
vitimitiMirv, where can I report the calibre suit being removed by the PPA?14:28
Mirvvitimiti: ah, no need to report, I've been working on these xenial packages for the last 3 days so some omissions are still there. but pyqt5 just finished building, I will push calibre and it should be hopefully ready for use within 1h!14:28
Mirvvitimiti: I'm aware of all private header using packages that need rebuilds14:28
vitimitiMirv, oh, that's really nice, I'll reinstall it later, then14:29
tsdgeosMirv: it's just a month late, no? https://wiki.qt.io/Qt-5.6-release14:36
tsdgeosit's not that terrible14:36
Mirvtsdgeos: well it's three months late from what they would want (Apr / Oct cycle) and what we would want, but only one month now late from what they considered "let's make late already beforehand"14:37
=== rdieter_work is now known as rdieter
Mirvtsdgeos: but consider Qt 5.5 was out 1st of July and we still haven't managed to land that. by that example, we wouldn't land Qt 5.6 before April/May14:38
Mirvif it takes similar amount of time14:38
tsdgeoswell we would need to put more effort into it, that's for sure :)14:38
Mirvso therefore the hardness to estimate 5.614:38
Mirvtsdgeos: I'd welcome that, but I fear people will have some extremely tight deadline comes January / February due to other priorities :) I'm happy if I find my fears unfounded.14:39
tsdgeosyeah there's always other "more pressing stuff"14:39
=== hikiko|ln is now known as hikiko
tsdgeosit seems14:39
vitimitiHi again, on Qt 5.5.x14:42
vitimitiThe global menu for QtCreator stopped working14:47
vitimitiIt appears, until I click on a menu, then it disappears14:47
vitimitiBut I still can use it through the Alt key14:48
Mirvvitimiti: thanks for testing! the desktop has been less tested than phone, please file a bug against https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appmenu-qt5/ (and use tag "qt5.5") so that sil2100 can look into that14:49
vitimitiI will14:49
BrianLinuxing2Question: how stable (overall) do people feel the Ubuntuphones are? I saw one the other week and really liked it.14:53
MirvBrianLinuxing2: if you buy a Ubuntu phone (Bq models currently, I think Meizu may have sold out), it's working pretty stable. I and certainly a lot of others are using it as my only phone, and it serves me well.14:55

mhall119\o/15:10
core_apps_policethis session is only for the unity7?15:12
mhall119QUESTION: sorry, one more about snappy apps on the desktop, will these be run under confinement like phone apps, or unconfined like traditional desktop apps?15:12
willcookecore_apps_police, yeah, traditional desktop15:12
jrjrtgergyea, let's not call it developer desktop... that seems odd15:13
=== uart is now known as uuart
Trevinhohttp://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-x-incoming-bug-tasks.html15:15
cm-tQuestion, maybe didrock can anwnser: Does umake in long term, can be replaced by the regular snappy installer, or ?15:16
uuartQUESTION: it is hard to find unity 7 documentation (for example how to write scopes) because all the old links from askubuntu etc now go to unity 8 docs. will this be fixed so it's still possible to write unity 7 scopes?15:16
core_apps_policeQUESTION: There will be any change to the default apps?15:16
mhall119uuart: it's still possible, but since it's doing away as soon as we can make it go away, we're not really encouraging people to invest in it15:17
willcookehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/BigDesktopBugScrub15:18
core_apps_policeuuart: that's quite true... difficult to find documentation on that15:18
Laneythe incoming list should be triaged15:18
Laneyby nominating to the "X" series15:18
Laneythen it goes to rls-x-...15:18
Laneyrls-x-tracking?15:19
uuartmhall119: but it is not going away until 2019! my desktop is using the dash every day and i am not able to customise it because all the docs are for a thing i will not be running for at least two and a half years15:20
Sweet5harkseb128: yes, going with 5.1 ...15:21
seb128Sweet5hark, thanks15:21
seb128willcooke, ^15:21
mhall119QUESTION: willcooke, I floated the idea a while back of upgrading Unity 7 to use the new Scopes API, have you been able to evaluate the work required to do that to see if it's feasible?15:21
willcookethx Sweet5hark15:21
mhall119https://developer.ubuntu.com/api/devel/ubuntu-13.10/python/Unity-7.0.html very old API docs for Unity 7 scopes15:22
mhall119but no longer tutorials for it15:22
didrockscm-t: also, I plan to be able for ubuntu make to create snappy package in a headless environment. That way, we will deliver directly snaps to user (if the license enable us of course to redistribute the software)15:22
didrockswillcooke: FYI ^15:22
Sweet5harkseb128, willcooke: ... also LibreOffice will ship with a new default icon theme (breeze instead of human) -- this is already done on xenial as of now ;)15:23
CheeseBrgWill the deb version of Ubuntu move to Unity8?15:23
CheeseBrganytime in the future15:24
kyrofaCheeseBrg, eventually, but not xenial15:24
cm-tdidrock: Cool. Thank15:24
mhall119willcooke: thanks, that's what I expected15:24
mhall119QUESTION: we have an emoji font on the phones, will that be available on the desktop? (saw someone ask on G+ a few days ago)15:25

ahoneybunno/ balloons15:28
balloons?15:31
ahoneybunnballoons: I'm on lunch break15:32
uuartQUESTION: can there be emoji support on the ubuntu desktop? (colors, a way to type them easily, use emojione set of icons)15:32
kyrofaQUESTION: Will empathy be replaced with something then?15:33
kyrofaOr are we just removing chat altogether?15:33
CheeseBrg^15:34
kyrofaBecause I certainly use it15:34
kyrofaAnd I like the integration15:34
LaneyInstall it from the archive, none of that is going to go away15:34
jrjrtgergQUESTION: additionally will empathy be removed from main?15:34
kyrofaLaney, I'm not worried about it going away, I just thought the social apps were important by default15:35
LaneyNot so much these days15:35
LaneyLike the popular ones stopped working with third party IM clients15:35
jrjrtgergpidgin is still in main, btw15:35
seb128kyrofa, they are, but if they don't support the services users are using it's not useful15:35
seb128jrjrtgerg, yeah, but that depends on gtk2...15:35
uuart(sorry mhall119 I didn't see your question... i'd like to see colours, and an emoji panel to pop up when in text fields)15:35
kyrofaseb128, makes sense, thank you15:36
Laneybecause of telepathy-haze -> libpurple15:36
cm-t2questiin about emoji: Read them (cf phone,s font) and type them15:36
seb128is that different?15:37
CheeseBrgSo is the Gnome Software Center going to be the base for the new Ubuntu Software OR is it just a temp solution?15:38
cm-tyes, reading just need a font, typing need a keyboard (hardware or software) layout15:39
cm-tseb12815:39
CheeseBrgQUESTION: So is the Gnome Software Center going to be the base for the new Ubuntu Software OR is it just a temp solution?15:39
uuartjust a font means that emoji are in black and white only :(15:39
cm-tso reading easy to release, typing, more complex15:39
willcookeCheeseBrg, it will be *the* solution15:40
CheeseBrgwillcooke:What does that mean?15:40
LaneyIt will be the program to use to install software15:41
willcookeCheeseBrg, GSC will be the software centre15:41
nommyhave you looked into app grid like Ubuntu MATE is using?15:41
willcookenommy, I think AppGrid is closed source15:41
mhall119it is15:41
CheeseBrgwillcooke: Ok.15:41
kyrofaI say leave flash off. Firefox will take care of prompting15:41
nommyit's bsd or mit15:41
mhall119oh, well it used to be proprietary15:42
kyrofaEncourage its death15:42
core_apps_policeQUESTION: I will be able to reinstall my purchased apps with the Gnome Software Center?15:42
CheeseBrgThats what I was wondering. So Unity8 will have its own software center. Thus the Gnome Software Center is a Unity7 solution15:43
TrevinhoCheeseBrg: yep15:44
LaneySo's everything we talk about here15:44
mhall119thanks everyone15:44
cm-tThanks15:44
CheeseBrgSo for the new Unity7 Software Center, do paid for apps need to be snaps? If not, what is the method to upload new apps or is that disabled?15:45
core_apps_policeHope I can reinstall the games, if not it was just wasted money?15:46
willcookecore_apps_police, they'll still work on 14.0415:46
willcookecore_apps_police, but yeah15:46
seb128core_apps_police, in any case software-center is not going away, it's still in the archive and you can keep using it15:46
willcookeI would imagine that app devs would want to move to snap packaged apps, it makes their lives easier15:47
CheeseBrgwillcooke: And the new store will support snap apps?15:48
willcookeCheeseBrg, yeah15:48
willcookeCheeseBrg, well15:48
willcookethere will be a Snap store which can be browsed/installed via the GSC15:48
willcookeand on U8 there will be only a snap store via the scope15:49
CheeseBrgSo all current apps in the app store needs to be repackaged as snaps15:49
CheeseBrgthe paid for apps I mean15:49
willcookeCheeseBrg, eventually, yes.15:51
CheeseBrgOK15:52

kenvandinethat landed this week :)16:20
mhall119kenvandine: how about as the requester? Can gimp use content-hub to get images to edit?16:20
kenvandineno16:20
mhall119planned?16:20
kenvandinethat would require changes to the apps16:20
kenvandineno16:20
mhall119you don't want to apply ugly hacks to GtkFileChooser?16:21
tedgYeah, I mean if someone in the community wanted to create a patch for GTK we'd be happy if someone built that and made it installable. But this is designed to be enough to limp.16:21
kenvandineno16:21
kenvandineit would be terrible :)16:21
kenvandineand not all apps use that16:21

ChrisTownsendhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtjTwJsfdJU16:32
mrQ_THANKS16:32
mrQ_ChrisTownsend: thanks16:32
mhall119bregma_: so is puritine like a proof of concept or reference implementation of libertine?16:32
* tedg is very excited16:33
* mzanetti too16:33
balloonsQUESTION: How can we try this out for ourselves?16:33
balloonsQUESTION: Will this work for games or graphically intensive apps?16:33
justCarakasQUESTION what if I have an app that doesn't work with it, will it be fixed or only the big programs16:33
mhall119read: Steam16:33
tedgballoons: It'll depend on the app, but for the most part XMir pulls the GL through directly to Mir. So for instance the WebGL aquarium demo worked well.16:34
balloonsQUESTION: How can we report bugs or provide feedback should we try it out after the session?16:34
tedgjustCarakas: Probably Canonical will have a set of applications that it supports, but as people have problems we'd be happy to work with them to get their fixes and problems addressed.16:34
mhall119QUESTION: for apps that are .deb packaged but will run in Mir, can those run in libertine without X11?16:36
mhall119QUESTION: and the opposite, an app that needs X11 but can be snap packaged, can those use libertine?16:36
tedgmhall119: Yes, we have an explicit desktop file key that needs to be set.16:37
mhall119tedg: you should be on the hangout answering these :)16:37
tedgmhall119: Yes, we have an explicit desktop file key that needs to be set :-)16:37
tedgAh, well, you won't have a DISPLAY variable depending on the Desktop file :-)16:38
dobeymhall119: do multi-windows apps like gimp and such, work well on mir?16:39
mhall119dobey: not yet, but they're working on that16:39
tedgjdstrand: It should just work if you add a "stage-packages: xmir"16:40
tedgjdstrand: You'll get quite a bit added to your snap. But "should work"16:40
balloonsQUESTION: Any issues with devices? For instance, will my USB connected devices be ok? Can I scan, print, provide input without worry?16:43
mrQ_balloons: has a question16:44
mrQ_^^16:44
tedgYeah, I can't imagine that we'd be able to support HW access.16:46
balloonsQUESTION: Any integration plans between the container and unity8 besides content hub? Or can we expect access issues like this with HW16:46
mrQ_i guess it will be easier to just use a VM for legacy apps16:46
balloonsQUESTION: is networking done via bridge or ?16:47
dobeytedg: how am i going to run the windows app in wine that i need to talk over a serial port? :)16:47
tedgdobey: MS will sell you a Slate ;-)16:47
mrQ_xmir wine exe16:47
dobeytedg: i'll charge it to your card :)16:47
dobeytedg: and be sure to only use it with  your wifi network, so it doens't upload my wifi passwords to the open internet ;)16:48
tedgdobey: That's a feature!16:48
tedg"Upload to NSA"™16:49
mrQ_QUESTION: from where can we download Ubuntu Personal and how can we install it?16:49
mrQ_there is one question16:49
kyrofamrQ_, video is a little delayed :)16:50
mrQ_oh x416:50

mhall119lots18:13
mhall119X11 == no confinement18:13

CheeseBurgQUESTION: I used the unity8 ppa on a virtualbox but it just freezes at login. Is that because of the drivers?18:14
horses_oOcanot compiling unity7 with mir?18:14
horses_oOi see18:14

tsdgeosno18:21
horses_oO14.10?18:21
tsdgeosno, see https://unity.ubuntu.com/getinvolved/development/unity8/18:21
tsdgeos for the support18:21
horses_oOonly 15.04 and 16.0418:22
horses_oOi not understand18:22
horses_oOQUESTION: why not compile on 15.10?18:22

mhall119not for devices18:25
kyrofahorses_oO, phones will be using vivid for a while yet18:25
horses_oOstill not understand, can compile unity8 on 15.10?18:25
mhall119no, 15.10 is missing dependencies18:26
horses_oObut 15.10 is the current ubuntu and 15.04 is dead soon18:26
horses_oOok, thanks18:26
horses_oOunderstand18:26
mhall119unity 8 was never supported on 15.1018:26
horses_oObut how to develop?18:26
mhall119it was supported on 15.04 and will be on 16.0418:27
horses_oOinstall 15.04?18:27
horses_oOi have 15.1018:27
mhall119horses_oO: that's a good question to ask tsdgeos18:27
tsdgeosyou need either 15.04 or xenial or a cheroot of those18:28
horses_oOwhat is chroot?18:28
tsdgeosit's explained in the page i linked18:29
horses_oOtahnks reading18:30
h4ck3rChroot is an operation that changes the apparent root directory for the current running process and their children. A program that is run in such a modified environment cannot access files and commands outside that environmental directory tree. This modified environment is called a chroot jail.18:30
horses_oOso is safe to install 16.04 chroot18:31
horses_oOok18:31
mhall119horses_oO: it's a bit like a container, only more lightweight18:31
horses_oOreading chroot link from doc, this is complicated https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot18:32
mhall119so you could make a directory that contains a 16.04 install, then execute the build process in side that directory, with i thinking the directory is the whole system18:32
horses_oOi understand18:33
h4ck3rthe directory act as FS18:33
horses_oOthe chroot documentation from unity8 page is very old is for lucid18:33
horses_oOis working also on 15.10?18:33
mhall119tsdgeos: ^^ we should get that updated18:34
tsdgeosagreed18:34
horses_oOoh qml looks script, easy18:38
horses_oOhow long to compile unity, not have strong PC18:39
josharensonhorses_oO: depending on what you mean by "not strong"... I can't see it taking more than 30 min18:40
horses_oOpentium 418:40
horses_oOQUESTION: unity8 runs faster than unity7 on not strong pc?18:41
thecoder15is this ovelr18:42
thecoder15over18:43
h4ck3rwhat is difference between unity8 and unity8-lxc18:43
tsdgeoshttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity818:43
horses_oOh4ck3r: what is unity lxc?18:44
tsdgeoshttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Process/Merges/Checklists/Unity818:44
kyrofah4ck3r, I believe unity8-lxc allows you to run unity8 within LXC18:46
h4ck3rim on ubuntu 15.10 and i have searched for unity8 installation in this i got answer in form of installing unity8-lxc i dont kno what really it is18:46
josharensonhorses_oO:  Just timed it as I needed to do a clean build... I have a core i5 w/ 8gb ram and it takes  me ~5  minutes to do a clean build (with 3 jobs -j3) and thats with a bunch of chrome tabs open and streaming this talk18:46
h4ck3ri think so18:47
horses_oOjosharenson: woa you have strong computer18:47
josharensonhorses_oO: :-)18:47
h4ck3rcode link for unity8?18:47
horses_oO5 min is very fast18:47
tsdgeoshttps://code.launchpad.net/unity8/18:47
horses_oO5 min wait to open firefox :))18:48
tsdgeosok, end of video for me18:48
tsdgeosi'll hang around for a few more minutes in case somebody has any more question i missed18:48
horses_oOomg the unity8 code is so unintentionaly obfuscaded due to all the corner  cases     requierd for convergence that's not even... funny18:50

horses_oOudsbotu: is over18:51

iz_late_:((19:25
LarreaMikelQUESTION: if someone tries to port using this CM base, do he have to host something in a personal server??19:27
SarangYes you are right Wi-Fi calling is much more important than GPS I barely use GPS once a month19:27
iz_late_i turn GPS off and tape the camera on android19:28
iz_late_i'm 90% sure i have NSA in android19:28
SarangI vote for one plus one :)19:29
LarreaMikelwill prefer to see ubuntu touch in a xiaomi device... mi4c for example would be great19:30
iz_late_why not kickstart porting ubuntu on phones?19:30
iz_late_EXCLAMATION: let's kickstart ubuntu porting19:31
iz_late_!19:32

Guest69756Is this a daily driver?19:40
iz_late_QUESTION: what are your favorite ubuntu native apps?19:41

Guest69756There are certain apps which I absolutely need on daily basis. If it supports Gapps, it good to know.19:47
G_to_the_WDo you think time is of the essence? Ubuntu announced convergence years ago when they tried to sell through kicksarter. Now they will be surpassed by Windows' continuum19:47
iz_late_time and timing is everything19:48
ChloeWolfieGirlUbuntu touch on the OPO is the one I use the most but I need to keep my Xperia t around till everything works on the OPO19:51
