seb128Sweet5hark, I'm doing well thanks, got mostly over the holidays backlog and back on track for 16.04 I think ... and no, no hackfest for me, getting a week to get some work done before holidays and travelling for the planning sprint08:04
seb128what about you?08:04
Sweet5harktrying to get my back back it shape -- it was hurting badly recent days, its better now. as for work: xenial looks all well AFAICS -- lets see how stuff will get amazing after that ;)08:07

pittiSweet5hark: urgh, good luck with your back, that sounds scary08:07
pittiSweet5hark: too much exercise or too much sitting?08:07
Sweet5harkpitti: too much bad sitting apparently and then hurt myself by being too hard on myself when swimming.08:09

* Trevinho checks12:08
Trevinhoflexiondotorg: I'd really love to have the client fixed though... Also changing the mate.ini later couldn't cause the setting not to be updated by upgraders?12:12
willcookeseb128, just noticed the padding on the bluetooth window (for example) is gone again.  Didn't we already fix that?  I think it was an u/s bug?12:13
willcookemaybe it was called a wizard screen?12:13
seb128willcooke, wfm, where do you see it?12:14
willcookea new 16.04 install from the daily iso  yesterday12:14
seb128if I go to the bluetooth panel and click the "+" button the new dialog has space between the buttons and border12:14
flexiondotorgTrevinho, I'd like the client fixed too. But small team, little time and no obvious solution. This winrule is the best we have.12:15
Trevinhoflexiondotorg: I understand, you tried to check what happens if that mate.ini option is removed? Is the option unset (for future use case)12:16
seb128willcooke, it was a gtk bug that got fixed, the patch is still there afaik and wfm12:16
flexiondotorgTrevinho, Compiz is not enable by default in Ubuntu MATE. It can be optionally enabled via MATE Tweak.12:17
flexiondotorgNew activations will use whatever the mate.ini provides.12:17
willcookeseb128, ah, buttons look ok actually.  Seems to be the text on the left: http://imgur.com/glJoTXC12:17
flexiondotorgBut MATE Tweak also has a button to reset Compiz to mate.ini defaults, should an updated mate.ini be released.12:18
seb128willcooke, I can't confirm here but my virtualbox has no bluetooth and my system is in french so not having the same labels lead to a layout things differently12:26
willcookeI dont think its that big a deal, I'll see if I can fix it12:28
seb128thanks12:28
seb128I'm unsure it's a theming issue though12:28
seb128you had another example of dialog last time iirc12:29
seb128what was it? something with nm?12:29
willcookeyeah, I thnk it was vpns or something12:29
willcookeI'll see if I get time12:29
willcookenw12:29
seb128ah, right12:30
seb128adding a mobile connection12:30
seb128k, I can confirm in that dialog12:30
seb128I've a feeling it's due to https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/gtk/ui/gtkassistant.ui?id=9c39232ab399eb3138fa4924b6072c3d340c215e12:32
darkxstwillcooke, are you guys considering rebranding gnome-software this late in the cycle? atleast that is the impression I got from Michaels email12:32
willcookemhall119, can I get a copy of that email?12:34
seb128darkxst, "rebranding"?12:35
davidcalleseb128: where does the feature app comes from in gnome software? Gnome server somewhere?12:35
seb128there are discussions about the wording of the ubiquity slide12:35
seb128davidcalle, I don't know, but we have people at a hackfest who know and are working on changing that list I think ... why? please don't dup work by looking also at doing similar changes12:36
seb128davidcalle, in any case please talk to Laney on this channel, he mentioned that on the first day of the hackfest so I guess he's the person to talk to about those changes12:37
davidcalleseb128: I'm not, no worries, just looking if there was a way to change this featured app locally. Nothing related with the wider GNome Software discussion ;)12:37
darkxstwillcooke, i sent you a copy12:38
seb128willcooke, we might need something like https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/theme/Adwaita/_common.scss#n225 ?12:38
seb128davidcalle, k, Laney can help you with that I think12:38
davidcallethanks12:38
seb128darkxst, there are discussions about the wording of the slide as just said and maybe naming of the .desktop under Unity12:39
willcookedarkxst, ta12:39
seb128darkxst, no changing of the look/branding of the software12:39
darkxstseb128, thats fine, and not I would consider rebranding12:39
mhall119willcooke: darkxst: which email?12:43
seb128willcooke, if you play with css maybe look if something around the12:44
seb128GtkAssistant {12:44
seb128.sidebar GtkLabel {12:44
seb128padding: 6px;12:44
seb128would fix it?12:44
darkxstmhall119, the snap email, where you suggested gnome-software might be rebranded, but apparently that is not the case actually12:45
mhall119darkxst: ok, that. It's actually not branded "GNOME Software" right now, it's just "Software", we put that in because we weren't sure how it was going to be called12:47
larsuthe "using packages from other distributions" section on https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Uploading could use some clarification: the url should probably say ~<lp_name>/<ppa_name>/ubuntu/<a ubuntu suite>12:49
larsuat least it confused me :)12:49
davmor2willcooke: OMG an upgrade and it seems to be working this can't be right :)12:50
willcookedavmor2, It'll never last.12:51
willcookequick pull the plug12:51
darkxstmhall119, ok, so long as its only Unity specific desktop files, I couldnt care what you call it12:51
darkxstwe have already made our slideshows, and our users are expect GNOME "Software" not some other name ;)12:53
mhall119darkxst: I think this was more a case of the community team not knowing what name to use for it than anything12:53
seb128larsu, open a bug against launchpad ;-)12:54
davmor2willcooke: it's got time to break on the mokutil yet something to blame cyphermox for again cause you know how he likes me to blame him for stuff :)12:54
mhall119since we've always heard it called "GNOME Software" but the app itself only uses the name "Software"12:54
mhall119and we know that non-GNOME flavors are also using it12:54
cyphermoxwhat what ? mokutil broken?12:54
darkxstmhall119, all the core GNOME apps are like that12:54
larsuseb128: thanks, will do (didn't know where the correct place would be...)12:54
mhall119darkxst: yeah, it causes some confusion :)12:55
seb128darkxst, not really, we don't have "GNOME gedit" or "GNOME nautilus"12:56
darkxstseb128, ok all the newer GNOME apps are like that12:56
darkxstphotos, maps, music, logs, etc12:56

seb128Trevinho, k, unsure if that's a really issue but it would be nice to at least follow up on the bug14:59
GunnarHjpitti: Nothing to sponsor yet. That issue would be resolved with 2.11.94, so I'd like your view (again).14:59
Trevinhoseb128: sure, I think it's a duplicate of anohter one we're getting... It seems like a race though15:01
pittiGunnarHj: well, it hasn't changed much; if even one patch does such damage, there's little reason to believe that taking 50 more patches is regression free15:01
seb128Trevinho, well, you at least have somebody who knows how to follow debug intructions if you need some info ;-)15:01
pittiGunnarHj: that said, upgrading is not off the table, but there's a lot more QA to be done there than just "crossing fingers"15:01
Trevinhosure...15:01
pittiGunnarHj: Mingye suggested some comparison script, that looks like a good start15:02
GunnarHjpitti: I rather think that the commits are too interdependent to be cherry picked.15:02
seb128GunnarHj, pitti, 2.11.1 is the current stable version, .94 is an unstable one ... seems late for such changes without a good rational?15:02
pittiseb128: well, my point :) (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/1556457/comments/18)15:03
ubot5`Launchpad bug 1556457 in fontconfig (Ubuntu) "[FFe] Demilight (OS/2 weight=350) confuses fontconfig" [High,Fix released]15:03
GunnarHjpitti: Yeah, if I understand it correctly, Mingye's script would check for proper weigths.15:03
pittistill, I think if someone can come up with a convincing plan to test this across fonts/glyphs/locales/desktops, it'd be okay, but this is a high-risk update15:03
seb128pitti, right, I was just  throwing in that 11.1 is the current stable and .9x are unstable versions since their versionning is a bit confusing15:04
GunnarHjpitti, seb128: What triggered this was the switch for Chinese from fonts-droid to fonts-noto-cjk. 2.11.1 is simply not ready for all the fonts weights in fonts-noto-cjk.15:04
seb128:-/15:05
seb128blame happyaron!15:05
* happyaron hummmmm...15:06
GunnarHjseb128, pitti: If you talk to the upstream fontconfig developers, they have left 2.11.1 behind long ago. "Ancient". So we should probably not take the distinction between stable and development too seriously.15:06
* happyaron goes to his bed15:07
seb128happyaron, night!15:07
seb128happyaron, sorry was teasing you, it's a side effect of the change to use fonts-noto-cjk but you are not the only responsible for that transition ;-)15:08

pittiso, no idea here -- damned if you do, damned if you don't15:10
seb128yeah :-/15:10
GunnarHjpitti, seb128: Yeah, it may be high risk, but the risk for a regression wrt Chinese rendering is 100% if we don't do anything.15:10

GunnarHjpitti, seb128: I could try to make use of Mingye's test script together with Mingye tomorrow. (Suspect he is sleeping now.)15:18
willcookeandyrock, looking at your mps - tests as well, nice!15:19
GunnarHjpitti, seb128: At the same time, wouldn't it be advisable to get 2.11.94 into the archive ASAP, so we have some time for the community/testers to provide feedback?15:19
happyaronGunnarHj: he never sleep at this moment15:20
pittiGunnarHj, seb128: either that, or a call for testing (flavors times locales) with the PPA15:20
pittialthough I guess the more probable outcome will be that we do upgrade15:20
pittiand we can revert back to 2.11.1 in the worst case15:20

GunnarHjpitti: Right, reverting would be easy .15:21

GunnarHjpitti: So, are you ready to take the chance?15:22
pittiI feel like getting my arm twisted, but I don't see a lot of other options15:22
pittiseb128: WDYT?15:22
seb128pitti, I think I would go for the update, it's relatively easy to revert if needed15:23
pittiseb128: i. e. do you object to update+call for testing+revert to 2.11.94 on regressions? any better idea?15:23
seb128it's likely going to be the most maintainable solution for a LTS15:23

seb128GunnarHj, did you update to .95?15:34
seb128if we go with the new version we can as well take thecurrent one15:34
GunnarHjseb128, pitti: The version in the PPA is 2.11.94. I think 2.11.95 was tagged today...15:35
pittiyeah, but .94 got some testing, so let's rather update in two steps15:36
seb128k15:36
seb128that makes sense15:36
pitti(that said, still a good idea to follow the .9x)15:36
pittiGunnarHj: I suppose I should keep the gperf build dep from the previous upload too?15:45
pittithere was no rationale, but your PPA package doesn't have it15:45
GunnarHjpitti: Not sure. It proved to be necessary for the patching approach, but not for 2.11.94.15:45
pittiah, ok15:45
pittiGunnarHj: ok, I took your PPA package, merged the ubuntu9 changelog, bumped fontconfig and mentioned the dropping of gperf b-dep and dropping the 0002 patch15:46
pittitest-building now15:47
pittioh, should add a ref to the regression15:48
GunnarHjpitti: The regression was reported at bug #1566651.15:48

seb128seems fine16:50
seb128did you upstream that one?16:50
seb128you know Trevinho right? :p16:50
TrevinhoI'm not sure i will accept that... :-D16:50
seb128andyrock, btw you are sure you want libwnck and not libwnck3?16:51
andyrockseb128: is not the same :D16:51
andyrock?16:51

seb128did you test it?16:52
seb128did it work? ;-)16:52
seb128maybe hud is still using the old lib16:52
dobeyanyone else notice that in 16.04, when closing the empathy window, most accounts are also disconnected?16:59
seb128dobey, no, what account types? how do you notice?17:01
dobeyat least icq and jabber (gtalk); close empathy window, then click on messaging menu -> empathy to open it again, and most of my online contacts no longer appear17:03

andyrockthe problem is that set_text (...) resets the use-underline property17:04
seb128andyrock, how come it worked if you patched the wrong package?!17:04
andyrockso if there is something (in our case dbusmenuitem) attached to the notify:label signal17:04
seb128or did you patch a source and ld_preload that to test?17:04
andyrockseb128: nope i tested it on the upstream project17:05
seb128I see17:05
seb128thanks17:05
andyrockthat's why i didn't know about the libwnck libwnck3 difference17:05
dobeyweird; seems to behaving better now after a reboot17:15
seb128weird17:16
dobeyand it finally did the contact linking correctly it seems17:17
dobeywas having issues with that17:17

seb128not really17:34
seb128I'm not involved in those flavors17:34
seb128unsure who to ping either17:34
GunnarHjseb128: So they have themselves to blame, is that it?17:35
seb128sort of I guess17:37
willcookedesktoppers - I got the OK from design to use the grey colours for the tabs in terminal (@bg_color for active and shade(@bg_color, 0.7 for the others)17:39
willcookebut...17:39
willcookeI wondered...17:39
GunnarHjseb128: IMO they have. Besides those MP:s, it was also up at ubuntu-devel: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2016-February/039217.html17:39
willcookehttp://imgur.com/MhMd1wo17:39
seb128GunnarHj, you can maybe try mentioning in on #ubuntu-release17:41
seb128willcooke, the orange is not light enough imho17:42
willcookeseb128, it's the right colour, but yeah, I agree.  If I tweaked it - what do you think about an orange active tab?  Too much?17:42
seb128willcooke, I still wonder if the adwaita way would be nicer, having a colored line at the top17:43
willcooke"right colour" = "ubuorange"17:43
andyrockwillcooke: other thing in the hud the items are going to appear as "Close (Window)", "Resize (Window)"17:44
GunnarHjseb128: Thanks for the tip, will do.17:45
seb128GunnarHj, yw17:45
andyrockto distinguish from Close (File) e.g.17:45
willcookeandyrock, perfect, thanks17:45
seb128willcooke, I saw some website today doing the 'color line at the top' thing, can't remember which one now but I think it was a popular one because I though that if even them were doing it that might be a good option17:46
willcookeandyrock, can we use the original short cuts from the window menu, i.e. minimize = n to get the HUD to match against it?17:46
willcookeseb128, the only way I can think of doing that would be with a coloured border17:47
andyrockwillcooke: we need to modify hud-service to take into account the mnemonic17:47
andyrocknot sure it's that easy17:47
andyrocki'll take a look as soon as i push the bamf branch17:48
willcookethanks andyrock17:48
flocculantGunnarHj: I've passed the comment along for us (xubuntu)17:50

willcookeseb128, ignore the borders etc for now; http://imgur.com/ffyCZ1y17:54
willcookeseb128, I'm pretty pissed though.  It's taken me hours and hours to get those colour tabs working properly, and that took about 5 mins.  ;D17:56

willcookeseb128, oki, issues with coloured bar at the top of the tab....18:29
willcooke* I'll have to turn off image borders and replace with solid ones18:29
willcooke(not a big deal at all)18:29
willcooke * Need to sort the padding on the buttons, they're huuuuge at the moment18:29
willcooke(easy fix)18:30
willcookeand I think that's it18:30
willcookehttp://imgur.com/E6ByaXz18:31
willcookecould probably do with a bit more separation between the tabs18:31
Trevinhowillcooke: that's quite nice... Some separation would be cool19:00
Trevinhowillcooke: what about doing the same in FF then? :-)19:01
willcookeit's gtk2 right?19:01

willcookewhat do you think?19:02
willcookeit doesnt work with radiused tabs19:02
willcookeand I feel that the tabs are still too big, but the "+" and the drop down arrow are a bit buggy and can't be fixed (by me, now)19:02
davmor2willcooke, cyphermox: good news Nvidia upgrade upgraded and mokutils kicked in19:03

Trevinhowillcooke: maybe a px less? If possible it would be nice to have the border bigger on selected one, and very tiny in the others19:13
willcookeTrevinho, that's as small as I can get it19:14
