cimihola albert (tsdgeos)08:36
cimiback from holiday! yahoo08:36
cimianything I should take care of immediately that should have my attention?08:37
tsdgeoscimi: hi, welcome back :)08:37
tsdgeoscimi: nothing urgent that i can remmeber08:37
tsdgeoscimi: i made a small branch to fix your social-cards branch to unblock pstolowski but it's not urgent08:37
tsdgeosjust have a look at it when you have time08:38
cimitsdgeos, I do08:38
ciminot much mails to read08:39
cimi*many08:39
cimieaster was quiet08:39
tsdgeosyep :)08:41
dednickmzanetti: I've been given some mail for you from office to give to you in Prague. It's in my bag, but dont let me forget :)08:45
mzanettidednick, hah, ok. I'll try to remember08:45
mzanettiit's probably the Priority Pass08:45
pstolowskicimi, hey! social-actions silo looks good functionality-wise (please also update my test scope; there's a new click pkg in the src tree). but i think the placement of the buttons looks a little weird, i expected them the be overlaid on the card's image, instead it's below (or above)08:58
pstolowskicimi, not sure if that's by design?08:58
cimipstolowski, it is by design08:59
pstolowskicimi, ok then09:00
cimitsdgeos, shall I merge your branch inside mine?09:21
cimitsdgeos, or you guys can approve social-card, I fixed josh comemnt09:21
cimicomment09:21
tsdgeoscimi: i'd leave it as is, less silo changes needed09:21
cimiok09:22
cimitsdgeos, josh comment fixed09:22
tsdgeosoki09:24
cimipstolowski, tsdgeos I started asking patricia on the visuals, but I say that if we have the functionality working we can get this merged then we'll look after the visuals at a later branch unity8 only11:23

mterrymzanetti: I naively tried to update USC (by including both wallpapers as compiled headers) and gcc on armhf chokes on it (crashes)...12:55
mterrymzanetti: afternoon  :)12:55
Saviqmterry, hey, can you please recycle https://requests.ci-train.ubuntu.com/static/britney/vivid/landing-046/excuses.html13:30
pstolowskicimi, sounds good to me13:31

mzanettimterry, hey ho13:36
mzanettimterry, that's odd13:36
mzanettimterry, but why are they compiled in anyways... can't they be read from the fs?13:36
mterrymzanetti: that's how they were done in past...  I was just trying to reduce delta for this update.  But I agree, could/should be read from fs for convenience.  I'm looking at just updating the one phone wallpaper as a half-way step13:38
mterrySaviq: sure13:38
mterrySaviq: done13:38
mzanettimterry, sounds like a waste of memory too13:38
mterrymzanetti: well if we load both images, yeah13:38
mzanettimterry, so I figure the wallpaper update won't happen for OTA-10 anyways13:39
mterrymzanetti: yeah that's my recommendation  :)13:39
mterrymzanetti: I'd rather do this update right, which seems like it will involve retooling USC a bit13:39
mzanettiagreed13:39
mzanettilets target OTA-1113:39
mterrymzanetti: another issue that struck me when looking at USC source -- so now that tablet and phone are different images, and we're looking at multiple monitors, some in portrait, some in landscape, do we show different backgrounds depending on monitor form factor?  Or is there one background that we pick based on the device's form factor and just rotate it13:45
mterry(similar question to yesterday's rotation question)13:45
mzanettihmm... can't answer this one right now tbh13:46
mzanettithere's 2 things: should the wallpaper on the large screen be a different one than the one on the small screen? a question for design really13:47
mterrymzanetti: yeah.  I don't know if they thought through the ramifications of two different wallpapers13:48
mzanettithe other: if it should be the same. how are optimizing things? If the phones need to load some 4k images, it's slowing things down unneccessarily13:48
mterrymzanetti: right?  that bg they gave us is huge13:48
mzanettiyeah13:48
mzanettiit highlights the rotation bug a bit more13:48
mzanettiwhich is why I don't want to land it for OTA-10 after all13:48
mterrymzanetti: we could go the enablement way and have one optimized bg per device  :)  But that's obviously a pain to maintain13:49
mterrymzanetti: first boot can optimize an image though13:49
mzanettiI'd rather have some sets shipped in unity13:49
mzanettiyeah. or that13:49
mterrymzanetti: and every time u8 sees a new monitor, it can quickly optimize one for that monitor, stick it in /var/cache/ somewhere13:50
mzanettisounds like that'd be a good idea anyways. whenever we require a new size for a screen, just cache it on disk13:50
mterryoh I guess user session, so ~/.cache13:50
Saviqthumbnailer!13:51
mzanettiSaviq, no13:51
SaviqI know ;P13:51
mzanettibut yeah13:51
mzanettiI'll create something at some point13:51
mzanettiI need this too often, really13:51
mzanettithe queueing of notifications is annoying as hell13:51
mterrymzanetti: USC should use the same mechanism13:52
Saviqwell, I know why not thumbnailer for usc, why not elsewhere/13:52
mzanettiSaviq, because michi says this is out of scope13:52
mzanettiSaviq, I had that discussion for a while13:52
Saviqwhaat? caching images is out of scope? what is the scope then?13:52
mzanettiextracting media artwork from files13:52
mzanettibut they better be not special in any way13:53
mzanettithe fact that it works for some images is merely an accident13:53
Saviqwhy does it even support images then, that's not "extracting media artwork"13:53
mzanetti...13:53
Saviqok well, I'll put it in scope somewhere13:54
Saviqmore of an SDK topic really13:54
mzanettiyeah13:54
mzanettiSaviq, when doing so: it should work for remote images and images in qrc files13:54
Saviqmzanetti, that last one might be tricky, but sure13:55
mzanettigiven that our sdk templates for apps are using qrc files by default13:55
mzanettiand the remote image case is really the most useful one13:55
Saviqwell, that's obvious13:55
mzanettiSaviq, well, if this is gonna be a new component, it will probably be in-process13:55
Saviqmzanetti, but we need the default image provider in Qt to be overridable TBH13:55
mzanettiand with that have access to qrc contents13:55
Saviqmzanetti, unlikely to be in process as a whole13:56
Saviqneed a central DB and such13:56
Saviqwell, or maybe not13:56
mzanettiSaviq, the SDK already "overrides" the default image provider (overriding is the wrong word - rather extending)13:56
Saviqmaybe can cache in ~/.cache/$app13:56
mzanettiyeah, I'd go for app-local13:56
Saviqmzanetti, the default *image* not, the provider :P13:56
SaviqEWEIRDCOMMA13:56
mzanettiin any case, I'd be ok with having another provider and using image://cached/file:///foobar.png13:57
mzanettiwould leave the option open to not use it13:57
mzanettianyhow, gotta jump to a meeting now13:57
SaviqI'd leave the option out13:57
Saviqor maybe make it opt-out rather than opt-in13:58
mzanettiwfm, but it should be possible to opt-out at least13:58
mzanettiremote content might change without changing the path13:58
mzanettietc...13:58

mzanettiok. that meeting was quick14:04
mzanettiI basically said "ok" 3 times and that was it :D14:04
mterrySaviq, mzanetti: Guess what I realized I hadn't seen in forever?  The "3-power-button-press" bug14:08
ltinklmzanetti, oh, something regarding the modal notifications background?14:08
mzanettiltinkl, ?14:08
mzanettiyou mean from design?14:08
ltinklmzanetti, yea, meeting == design14:08
mzanettino... was a meeting ith HR14:09
mzanettiwell I did talk to design today, but only about the converged stages14:09
mterryDoes desktop unity8 session work for anyone else?  I just get a black screen and nothing obviously wrong in unity8.log14:16
tsdgeosmterry: works here14:16
tsdgeosmterry: you may have the gst problem14:16
tsdgeosdid you fix it/have it?14:16
mterrytsdgeos: oh right...14:16
mterrytsdgeos: I remember being pointed at that before and it did help with one of my testing users14:16
tsdgeostry again then :)14:17

Saviqmterry, hey, can you please publish https://requests.ci-train.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/120616:05
mterrysure16:05
mterrySaviq: packaging diff looks ok, but looks like you intentionally added "XS-Testsuite: autopkgtest" ?  That shouldn't be needed anymore.  It's automatically added.  But it's harmless16:07
mterrySaviq: "Publish failed: qtmir-gles has merges in bad states.16:12
mterryunity8 has merges in bad states"16:12
Saviqmterry, I *removed* it16:20
mterrySaviq: for unity8, it got added16:21
mterrySaviq: I guess by mzanetti, not you16:21
Saviqmterry, ah yes, because train builds packages on trusty, which does not add16:21
Saviqautomagically16:21
mterrytrusty yikes16:21
Saviq(source ones)16:21
mterryI guess that makes sense16:21
Saviqmterry, all ACKed now16:22
mterrySaviq: published16:30
mterrymzanetti: I'm looking at the usageMode calculation code for bug 1564351.  In determining longEdgeWidth, we should use the screen size, not the window size.  But then I'm leery of just using Screen.height/width, because that's only one of the monitors (right?  Is it monitor 0?).  And it's harder to mock I guess.  Do we have a better solution?  Or maybe this16:32
mterryshould just wait until usageMode gets a rethink16:32

mterrymzanetti: guh nm.  We don't need to use Screen size there.  I was brain-farting16:39

Saviqmterry, whaa¿? http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/xenial/update_excuses.html#unity8 the fail! is FAIL!  : qmltestrunner::Wizard::test_accountPage() function returned unexpected result20:26
Saviq   Actual   (): tzPage20:26
Saviq   Expected (): accountPage20:26
mterryhrm20:26
Saviqplease recycle, and if you can explain how did we get tzPage, I'm all ears :P20:26
mterryrecycled...20:26
mterrySaviq: tzPage is before accounts...  And its "next" button isn't enabled if a timezone isn't selected... So something might have gone wrong there20:27
Saviqmterry, but we disabled tzPage20:29
Saviqah wait we didn't?20:29
Saviqright20:29
mterrynaw20:29
* Saviq got lost in all we did20:30
mterrySaviq: :)20:30
Saviqwell ok, one more to the "flaky test" bin...20:30
