mikodo It sure would be fun to see someone (I couldn't) package some debs as snaps for Xubuntu. Snap apps being packaged for some debs along side the regular deb repos  for starters. I've read recently that, "Canonical engineers are experimenting snapping various deb apps that can be used as templates to help other people snap other applications and push them into the snap store and that that it will be useful to test these snap apps on the family of Ubunt01:11
mikodou desktop environments". Seems the way of the future .01:11
mikodoUsers could then test with, <sudo snap install KeePassX> or whatever. 01:53
Unit193bluesabre: Ooh, look at -session packaging yet? :P  (Guessing not, which is fine because upstream work.)02:47
bluesabremikodo: Canonical folks have been reaching out to the various teams to experiment with snap packages02:49
bluesabreUnit193: I've not yet looked, no :)02:49
mikodobluesabre, Good. I didn't know that. 03:13
flocculantochosi: cetainly appears to fix it06:32

ochosiUnit193: the eyes plugin?12:01
Unit193Yeeep.12:01
ochosii'm not concerned with that one at all, but obviously it uses gtk>=3.20 features and would need ifdefs to e.g. work in gtk3.1812:01
Unit193I was mislead by XDT_CHECK_PACKAGE([GTK], [gtk+-3.0], [3.14.0])  :(12:02
Unit193Well, I'm not really interested in any of the plugins so far. :P12:02
Unit193xfce4-datetime-plugin almost, but there's a built-in one that does the same now.12:02
ochosiyeah, i for one would be more interested in a libxfce4ui package ;)12:04
Unit193Technically I built a git snapshot that might do what you're looking for. :P12:04
Unit193OH CRAP, this one needs a new EXO! :312:08
Unit193...Ooookay, I should stop and sleep. >_>12:09
Unit193Okay, the control file lied to me, configure.ac doesn't list.12:10
Unit193If anyone wants to smoke test them panel plugins before I copy over, that could be handy.12:33
pavlushka bug 159077118:12
ubottubug 1590771 in network-manager (Ubuntu) "Mobile Broadband does not activates after inserting usb modem in Xubuntu 16.04." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/159077118:12
pavlushkaif anyone helps me with that if I am wrong.18:13
flocculantpavlushka: #xubuntu18:14
pavlushkaflocculant: I filed that bug but if anyone can tell me whether it is relevant or not, though I should have asked that before filing the bug.18:19
Unit193Strong recommendation: We don't push GTK3 packages to the archive at all, but instead PPA them.  This gives the option to try them out still, while allowing us to get fixes and updates to them without any SRU process.  Much less fallout if some bad bug is discovered, and no paperwork to fix.  Also, we don't yet know how long the development cycle is, and I'm sure we don't want 4.13 packages in an 23:06
Unit193LTS.23:06
bluesabreUnit193: sounds very reasonable23:38
Unit193I don't *think* gdbus ports are as likely to hit problems, but could do the same thing there.23:40
