[19:56] <mcphail> bschaefer: Hi. Have all of your Mir fixes from your private branch been included in SDL2.0.4?
[21:01] <bschaefer> mcphail, nope, since its aimed at an LTS upstream :(
[21:01] <bschaefer> im waiting for things to trickle up from debian so i can patch it
[21:08] <dandrader> anpok_, around?
[21:22] <mcphail> bschaefer: that's a shame. I'm hoping we get a functional SDL2 in xenial
[21:38] <bschaefer> well i have a patch for xenial, soo i could patch that
[21:38] <bschaefer> the issue is the patch doesnt cleanly work with 2.0.4 for w/e reason
[21:38] <bschaefer> (its like 2 years behind)
[21:44] <mcphail> :(
[22:00] <bschaefer> mcphail, but ... IIRC ubuntu should get the synced debian packages
[22:00] <bschaefer> annnd 2.0.4 should get into xenial
[22:00] <bschaefer> then it should be patched...
[22:00] <bschaefer> but i could be wrong :)
[22:06] <mcphail> Yes, my worry is we get a version of SDL which doesn't work with the current Mir API.
[22:09] <bschaefer> mcphail, right but if 2.0.4 gets sync'ed to ubuntu i have a patch
[22:09] <bschaefer> waiting for propose for ubuntu only
[22:11] <mcphail> That would be brilliant. I'm getting a bit uneasy about packaging hand-rolled binaries in .clicks and .snaps and it would be great to have a working version of SDL from a verified source such as the default repos
[22:12] <bschaefer> mcphail, thats the goal!
[22:12] <bschaefer> mcphail, i had this, but am waiting for 2.0.4
[22:12] <bschaefer> https://code.launchpad.net/~brandontschaefer/libsdl/update-mir-new-abi-api/+merge/276578
[22:12] <bschaefer> soo its on hold atm
[22:13] <bschaefer> mcphail, i've also updated the SDL2 mir branch i have to correctly find the pixel format
[22:13] <bschaefer> based on EGL
[22:13] <mcphail> bschaefer: thanks for all your hard work. I really appreciate it
[22:13] <bschaefer> mcphail, rev 7: https://code.launchpad.net/~brandontschaefer/+junk/SDL2-new-mir-ABI
[22:13] <bschaefer> np :)
[22:14]  * bschaefer would also *really really* want to get SDL2 working from repo in 16.04
[22:14] <bschaefer> with mirs new ABI/API
[22:15] <mcphail> Does the patch include the touch input fixes?
[22:15] <bschaefer> mcphail, yup!
[22:15] <bschaefer> that would be rev 6 in that branch :)
[22:15]  * mcphail is ecstatic
[22:15] <bschaefer> which ill be using that branch to make the patch
[22:16] <mcphail> bschaefer: well, sir, I doff my cap to you and hope this all makes it into xenial
[22:16] <bschaefer> thanks :), lets hope things get sync correctly!
[22:16] <bschaefer> and quickly
[22:17] <bschaefer> the sdl2 maintainer in debian was waiting for 2.0.4 release soo im hoping he is getting it ready quickly
[22:18] <mcphail> bschaefer: someone pointed this one out to me - http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-sdl-maintainers/2016-January/002272.html
[22:19] <bschaefer> mcphail, IIRC its in experimental
[22:19] <bschaefer> bregma, would know more about the processes there :) (poke)
[22:20] <bschaefer> mcphail, since theres
[22:20] <bschaefer> http://debomatic-amd64.debian.net/debomatic/experimental/pool/libsdl2_2.0.4+dfsg1-1/libsdl2_2.0.4+dfsg1-1.dsc
[22:20] <bschaefer> *which* sounds like experimental for me :)
[22:20] <mcphail> All this upstream -> debian -> ubuntu pathway is new to me. Fascinating to see how something gets adopted
[22:21] <bschaefer> yup, i've been slowly learning all of that was well :)
