soeeyes i also confirm this on our 5.6.400:01
acheron88I'm EU based, so I'll be off in a sec anyway00:01
acheron88If all else fails, I'll roll up a neon VM sometime tomorrow to test00:02
acheron88To be honest, I rare ever use those shortcuts anyway. Was a bit of a fluke noticing that in the first place.00:04
soeei do not see any bug report for this00:05
acheron88OK. I'll come back to this in the morning or tomorrow evening. Hopefully can work out if it's general upstream of just kubuntu packages00:11
danniare all svg icons (with stylesheet) supposed to follow the themes preferences in this release or just the system tray Icons?02:44

acheron88kicker/kickoff bug with recent docs/history from yesterday also present in kde-neon user and dev versions http://i.imgur.com/XqkryAZ.png07:43
clivejoacheron88: feels like a KDE bug to me08:00
acheron88unless you and neon have an identical packaging prob with whatever is needed for that, then seems so08:02
acheron88have asked again in #plasma 08:03
clivejoso I see08:04
clivejolet me know how it turns out08:05
yofelmoin08:06
clivejohi Phil :)08:06
acheron88at least it's not a problem specific to your plasma backport, which is good to an extent08:06
clivejoacheron88: it might be08:06
clivejoFW5.22 is very new08:07
clivejoand for all I know there is a dependancy on apps 16.04 in there08:07
clivejoin which there are huge changes08:07
acheron88true I suppose08:08
clivejoKDE Neon is also missing apps as far as I know08:09
clivejodunno might be totally wrong08:09
clivejojudging by the mail on release list there been a few issues with 5.22 anyway08:10
acheron88well, some plasma devs should surely be on the latest, so hopefully they can say soon08:11
clivejotrue08:13

acheron88apart from one bug, which we were just discussing, I've had no significant probs on xenial 08:17

tahaanHello gurus.  Any idea when we will get updates to Kwin / Plasma?  I'm having much instability related to switching between single and multi-monitor mode ...08:57
mgraesslintahaan: you need an update to Qt, KWin/Plasma updates won't fix it08:58
tahaanmgraesslin: great.  But when!!!!08:59
mgraesslinI'm not a Kubuntu dev, I'm a KWin dev08:59

mparillosheytan: apt seems to be running for me: Fetched 42.4 MB in 15s (2,772 kB/s)09:19
acheron88clivejo: seems that problem with recent docs in kicker is FW22 related09:38
acheron88archlinux with plasma 5.6.4 and FW 21 = no problem09:38
acheron88then install FW 22 from their testing repo = problem appears 09:39
martHi! Is there any ETA on plasma 5.6? LTS version (and some earlier versions) is buggy (multimonitor setup issues, plasma randomly freezing). I have read that 5.6 fixes a lot of those issues.10:08
mparilloAre you willing to test 5.6.4? Are you on XX or YY?10:13
marti'm on xenial.10:28
martI could help on testing, I think it can't be any worse than it is now :)10:29
mamarleyOne nice thing I have noticed about Plasma 5.6 is that for the first time since Plasma 5, the Shut Down/Reboot options finally work correctly instead of just hanging on a black screen. :)10:35
mparillomart: I think backports is coming soon, but there are two bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/+bug/157971210:42
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1579712 in appstream (Ubuntu Xenial) "Refresh hangs indefinitely, appstreamcli using 100% CPU" [High,Fix released]10:42
mparilloand https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36210510:43
ubottuKDE bug 362105 in Panel "Taskbar options 'autohide'/'windows can cover' not functional" [Major,Reopened]10:43
mparilloIf you think these are not too serious for you, then you can sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports-landing10:44
mparilloBut, if this is your production machine, it is probably better to wait.10:44
mamarleymart: At least your multimonitor issue is probably a Qt bug because of Qt 5.5.  Another multimonitor-related fix was just backported recently though, but it may still be in -proposed.10:50
marti'm not affected by those issues. I have one question: how hard is it to upgrade to backports if I have backports-landing installed?10:53
mparilloThere is ppa-purge, but I simply uncheck the -landing repo in update manager (under advanced > SW sources).11:06
yofelmart: as we just sync the packages, if you were using -landing up to the point when we release the backports and switch the repository, nothing would happen - as it's the same packages11:15
martok, good to know.11:18
