robert_ancellRAOF, ping01:47
RAOFrobert_ancell: Yo, pong.01:47
robert_ancellRAOF, hey, the file-roller SRU has stopped phased updates due to https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/a595b32f105a3f7cb708c518855658d3e48eea2c01:48
robert_ancellLooking at it the problem seems unrelated (failing to make a temporary directory) and no worse than before01:48
robert_ancellSo hoping you can continue the SRU rollout01:48
RAOFHm. I'm actually not sure how to do that.01:49
robert_ancellRAOF, it said ask ~ubuntu-sru :)01:50
robert_ancellhttp://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/phased-updates.html if it helps01:50
RAOFbdmurray would know about this :)01:51
RAOFAlso, ahem. Nothing dodgy *at all* in that backtrace...01:55
RAOF:)01:55
robert_ancellRAOF, it's just not *my* dodgy02:01
robert_ancelloh, the filename02:01
robert_ancellmust be quite popular at the moment02:01
RAOF:)02:01
robert_ancellfile-roller has the best backtraces02:01
RAOFrobert_ancell: file-roller should start rephasing now.04:36
robert_ancellRAOF, awesome, thanks.04:36
robert_ancellRAOF, what do you do to restart it? Some magic script?04:36
RAOFrobert_ancell: I reset it to 30% phasing, and the current thinking is that'll restart the process and get it to slowly phase up to 100%.04:36
RAOFYeah, in ubuntu-archive-tools.04:37
jbichawhat happens if you don't do that?04:39
jbichalike, I was annoyed this weekend about gnome-shell being stopped in xenial's phased updating04:40
RAOFIt's blocked at 0% phasing - it doesn't appear as an update for anyone.04:40
jbichabut if I didn't say anything would it eventually start up again maybe or what?04:40
RAOFIf you don't say anything it'll sit unused in -updates.04:40
jbichaok, the 3 people affected all had the glib from -proposed, 2 were using lightdm and 1 using sddm04:41
RAOFWow. Are there really so few gnome-shell users reporting to errors.ubuntu.com that the gnome-shell bug is only ever seen on LTS releases?04:41
jbichalol04:43
RAOFIt's glorious: 1 on 12.04, 6 on 14.04, 3 on 16.04.04:44
jbichait's a "long term support" bug04:45
jbichaglib for xenial is no longer complaining of autopkgtest failures http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html04:46
jbichaI wonder how that was fixed04:46

willcookeI'm now registered for a proxy vote - so we are all saved!08:17
seb128Trevinho, did you see that the xenial compiz SRU is blocked on new e.u.c reports that needs to be reviewed/flagged as regression or not?08:17
seb128willcooke, oh, you managed to pull that out? did you blame Canonical for sending you abroad? ;-)08:18
willcookeindeed :)08:18
seb128well done sir!08:18
Laneymmm tea08:19
willcookeIt was quite easy really; fill out the form, print it, sign it, scan it, send it to cvd, she prints it, signs it, scans it, sends it back.  I then email it to the local council, and got an email back at 0830 this morning saying it's all done.  Pretty impressive for a local authority.08:19
Laneythey googled you and decided how you were going to vote08:20

seb128happyaron, hey08:33
seb128happyaron, how is the nm-applet update going? you said "tomorrow" on thursday08:34
happyaronseb128: hey08:34
happyaronsorry guys will give you today08:34
seb128lol08:34
seb128you keep saying that for 3 weeks :p08:34
seb128what's the issue?08:34
seb128are you blocking on something specific? can I help?08:34
seb128or just too much other work?08:34
happyaronnot blocked actually, but I was thinking n-m itself is not uploaded so the applet is not in a real hurry...08:35
Laneyweird08:36
Laneymost of my gstreamer uploads didn't appear anywhere08:36
Laneyjust one random one08:36
seb128happyaron, we discussed that a month ago and said that the applet didn't need the nm upload, also n-m 1.2.2 is in yakkety so that claim isn't true08:38
seb128Laney, the vaapi update didn't need to build with the new gst version?08:38
happyarontrue. I should change my mind to do that in parallel..08:39
seb128happyaron, thanks08:39
seb128happyaron, also please look at the e.u.c summary on the page indicated in the email I forwarded you, the current SRUs for nm/nmapplet are not rolled out to users because those e.u.c reports need to be invistigated08:40
Laneyno08:40
seb128happyaron, I had a look, I think one of the bug might be new, it's a assert on s_con, which I guess might be because the other assert was removed and we hit similar errors further now08:40
Laneybut it probably wants a rebuild after the rest is uploaded08:40
seb128happyaron, should be reported upstream08:41
happyaronok08:41
seb128Laney, k08:41
seb128happyaron, thanks08:41
happyaronty08:41
seb128happyaron, can you look at those today or tomorrow? because in practice it means atm nobody gets the SRU even if it has been copied to -updates08:41
happyarondoing now08:42
seb128great08:42
happyaronso they are discovered during the phased update?08:43
seb128yeah08:43
seb128the system stops the rollout when errors are reported on the new version without existing on the previous ones08:44

ayanis there a way to configure ubuntu to mount USB devices as read-only?  it would be nice to have, for example, SD cards mounted read-only with the option of asking to remount them as rw later.09:39
seb128ayan, you can probably tweak fstab, I don't know of a standard way, unsure that's common ... what's the usecase/reason?09:40
ayanseb128: apparently small writes occur to SD cards even if i'm simply copying data from the card.09:41
seb128is that some desktop service? like thumbnails or temp files or something?09:42
ayanso, of course, if i just yank out the card without properly syncing, unmounting, etc. -- i can corrupt the device.09:42
ayanthis has happened a couple of times to me.  the result is that, at least for exfat, the checksum for the volume boot record gets corrupted.09:43
seb128:-/09:44
ayanya -- i think it is thumbnails.  i have gnome-raw-thumbnailer installed.  the problem seems to coincide.09:44
ayanbut i haven't verified it.09:44
willcookeLaney, might have just found a niggle with those border changes.  Take a look at a toggle switch, the background seems to stick out further than the border.  Might need to drop border images for those and replace them?09:44
seb128dunno about standard way to do it sorry09:44
seb128ok lunch time, bbl09:44
ayanseb128: okay. thanks.09:44

GunnarHjseb128: Hi Sebastien, you mentioned adding "X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack" to some packages (evolution, brasero, ...?). A full langpack export for xenial will happen next weekend, so now would be a good time to do it. I suppose it would be possible to keep them in -proposed until around July 14, when the language packs will be moved to -updates.09:46
alexarnaudTheMuso: hello :) !09:46
alexarnaudTheMuso: do you try debian/ubuntu on the Raspberry Pi ? I've tried one week ago, everything work perfectly expect speech-dispatcher. It seems there are permissions issue with pulseaudio, do you know something about that ?09:48
alexarnaudI think the RPi could be a good PC for our customer.09:48
Laneywillcooke: Which border changes?09:52
willcookethe ones related to the progress bar changes09:52
ayanseb128: i know writing is fairly common but i think simply reading from USB devices is probably most common.  maybe i'm the only one inconveniced by this but it seems reasonable in general to mount stuff as read-only until you've declared that you want to be able to write to it.  that would at least allow me to yank SD cards out of my computer without worry. :P09:53
LaneyShouldn't think those would affect that09:53
LaneyI have 14.04+16.10.20160613-0ubuntu1 and it looks the same to me09:53

Sweet5harkseb128: around?12:58
seb128Sweet5hark, yes!12:59
Sweet5harkso, I stole some ideas from the gnome-calculator-snap thingie.12:59
seb128I can recommend that ;-)12:59
willcookewe call it forking, not stealing.13:01
Sweet5harkseb128: and that uses something like "plugin: [copy]\n stage-packages: [gnome-calculator...]\n". Are you sure this copies files directly from those packages and not from the build OS?13:01
Sweet5harkwillcooke: forking is the beginning, spooning is what people do on github. Im training myself at knifing now ...13:03
willcookespork!13:03
Sweet5harkseb128: because I use the copy plugin here (for fonts and jre), and realized it copies from the host os in my case (noticed because I tried to build on a virgin machine, were the stuff was missing on the host).13:04
Sweet5harkseb128: not yet an issue for the result if the host is xenial too, butt otherwise ...13:05
seb128Sweet5hark, yes, stage packages are unpacked in parts/13:06
Sweet5harkFWIW, I wonder if the copy plugin should ever be allowed to put something in the snap from anywhere but the snap build dir and its subdirs. Everything else likely is just wrong anyway.13:06
seb128Sweet5hark, but that could be plugin: nil13:07
Sweet5harkseb128: ah, hmm, good point.13:07
seb128Sweet5hark, the stage-packages don't rely on the plugin13:07
* Sweet5hark tries to play with that.13:07

desrtgood morning everyone13:33
desrtan interesting read: http://www.vox.com/2016/6/21/11974600/brexit-eu-euro-disaster13:33
desrta pretty good argument on why UK "leave" is the best option for everyone13:33
seb128hey desrt13:33
desrttl;dr: UK doesn't want to be "ever closer" but the rest of the EU *needs* to be "ever closer" so the UK should get out of the way of blocking that from happening13:34
desrtmorning seb :D13:34
seb128desrt, is there a env variable to tell apps where they should look for the dconf database?13:41
larsuisn't it just in XDG_RUNTIME_DIR13:48
larsu?13:48
seb128larsu, it's ~/.config/dconf/user by default no? so the config dir13:49
seb128not the runtime13:49
seb128would a symlink there to the real location work?13:49
seb128I guess I can try that13:49
larsuhm, there's /run/user/1000/dconf/user as well13:50
* larsu is clueless and should shut up13:50
seb128larsu, I think that's only used to write a temp file during writes13:51
seb128that's not where you user config is stored13:51
larsuah13:52
seb128larsu, anyway, the issue is snaps have a private userdir, you can get optional access to the real userdir but when you do that it's available under another location ... we have an interface that gives access to the dconf session service (as a temp workaround until we get a proper proxy), that works but the value is written in the real session but the snapped app doesn't see it since it mmap its local unmodified version13:52
seb128which is a bit ironic13:52
seb128you can change the real system config13:52
seb128but not your own :p13:52
larsuhaha :)13:53
GunnarHjseb128: Did you see my mentioning of the coming langpack build (right after you had left for lunch)?13:54
desrtseb128: there are a few possibilities13:55
desrtseb128: but none of them allow you to directly specify the path of a single database with an environment variable... you have to write a profile...13:56
seb128desrt, would a symlink work?13:57
desrtno.13:57
seb128:-(13:57
desrtyou need a profile13:57
seb128GunnarHj, hey, yeah I saw that, I don't think we need to coordinate, if those are in the langpack update great, then we can land an update for the apps to re-use the langpack any time later13:58
desrtwriting a profile is pretty easy though... the slightly harder part is syncing up the requirements with the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR stuff, at the same time13:59
seb128remind me what happens if we don't have XDG_RUNTIME_DIR?13:59
desrtwe add XDG_RUNTIME_DIR14:00
GunnarHjseb128: But those packages aren't built for langpacks currently, are they?14:00
seb128or if the snap one points to an empty dir14:00
desrtbecause shit be broken if we don't have it14:00
seb128what sort of issues are we talking about?14:00
desrtbut in the case of dconf, uhm... i'm going to say that it means that you will successfully read the contents of the dconf database at app startup but you won't see any changes after that14:00
seb128I think it was an issue with nfs and weird fs14:00
desrteven if you get change signals over dbus, you will continue to see the old values14:01
desrtdconf uses this directory for a 'database has changed' flag14:01
seb128GunnarHj, what does "built for langpacks" mean? are the corresponding domain in your new export?14:01
GunnarHjseb128: Built with the "X-Langpack-something..." variable in d/control. I don't know how to see the data which will be included in the export.14:03
GunnarHjseb128: You seem to have dropped "X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack" in the latest evolution build, for instance. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/3.18.5.2-0ubuntu314:05
seb128GunnarHj, right, that doesn't reply to my question though14:06
seb128GunnarHj, is evolution-3.18.mo in the current langpacks export?14:06
GunnarHjseb128: looking...14:07
seb128GunnarHj, or did we get a new export yet since xenial?14:08
GunnarHjseb128: No exports have been made use of since the xenial release.14:09
seb128k14:09
seb128I understand your question now14:09
seb128dpm, pitti, can you remind me how langpackomatic builds up the list of domains to include in the langpacks?14:10
GunnarHjseb128: I'm not pitti or dpm, but I know how it works for ubuntu-docs: If it's built in xenial-proposed before the language packs are generated, then it will be included.14:13
GunnarHjseb128: Assumed it works similarly for 'normal' packages.14:14
pittiseb128: the LP exports contain a mapping.txt which give a domainname → sourcepackage map14:14
seb128pitti, can we ask for a package in universe that doesn't use "X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack" to be included?14:15
pittiseb128: and langpack-o-matic downloads main's+restricted's Sources.gz and filters those packages plus the universe ones with X-Ubuntu-Use-LP: from that map14:15
pittiseb128: well, that tag is precisely for doing that14:15
seb128pitti, it's use the sources.gz from proposed?14:16
pittiseb128: no, only from -release ATM, but of course we could change that14:16
pittiactually, no, this was bogus14:17
pittilangpack-o-matic doesn't look for that tag14:17
pittiLP itself already filters on the component apparently, hang on14:17
pittithis is waaaay too long ago14:17
seb128pitti, remember that bug that made langpack-o-matic not use universe indexes and miss evolution/universe packages?14:17
pittiseb128: yes, that got fixed14:17
seb128right14:17
seb128we still didn't get an export since though14:17
seb128so we removed X-Ubuntu-Use-LP from evolution as a workaround in a SRU14:18
pittiI think GunnarHj is planning one now for next week14:18
seb128right14:18
seb128the question is how do we get evolution to be in the export14:18
seb128since we removed "X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack"14:18
seb128do we do a SRU adding it back and keep that in proposed14:19
seb128but is that enough? would need langpackomatic to look at the flag in proposed14:19
pittiseb128: it's actually pkgstriptranslations which does that, and as it happens during package build, yes14:20
pittiI'm not entirely sure if the LP translation importer cares about domains14:20
pittibut I doubt it14:20
pittiit doesn't care about the static translations (ubunt-docs) either14:20
seb128well, importer is not the issue14:25
seb128like if the domain is in the langpacks we can rebuild evolution later to go back to using those translations instead of shipping them14:25
seb128the issue is to make sure the next langpack export includes the evolution-3.18.mo14:25
seb128which is something on the exporter side or langpack builder14:26
seb128right?14:26

pittiseb128: right, mainly striptranslations/LP import+export14:28
pittiseb128: so, having it in -proposed seems fine14:28
seb128pitti, k, thanks14:29
seb128GunnarHj, so yeah, seems like we should got those in proposed this week, I can do that ... do you know of others than brasero and evolution?14:37
GunnarHjseb128: I haven't really considered it. Another package which was moved to universe is Empathy.14:38
seb128that got rebuilt since, it has integrated translations, but maybe it would be good to go back to launchpad ones14:39
GunnarHjseb128: Don't think I have much input here. Suppose that we are talking about programs which are often installed and where it's considered desirable that the translations are as updated as possible.14:43
seb128yeah, also programs that might need translations14:43
seb128empathy didn't change much in recent cycles and come from GNOME which has good translation teams14:44
seb128so I would expect the included translations to be in good state14:44
GunnarHjseb128: Aha, get it.14:44
seb128desrt, so dconf profiles ... how do I write one that say to load the user db from /randomdir?14:49
seb128desrt, https://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/dconf-profiles.html.en doesn't help me much14:49
GunnarHjseb128: The criteria for choosing those programs aren't obvious. For instance, the Swedish translation team tries to translate upstream as much as possible, and uses LP mostly for Ubuntu specific stuff. Hence the translation coverage is good anyway. My guess is that that's how the most active translation teams work.14:51
seb128right14:51
seb128GunnarHj, it's important for e.g evolution because we have distro patches that add strings for the indicator/unity launcher so those aren't translated when using the upstream translations14:52
GunnarHjseb128: Yeah, patches with translatable strings is indeed a good reason.14:52
desrtseb128: this is a bit of a complicated question too15:28
desrtseb128: the first problem is that you have to know what the user's profile was to start with15:29
desrtbut let's assume it's the default15:29
desrtnext question: how much do you want to share?15:29
desrtif you want change support, for example, and the ability to write, you probably want a "user-db:user" line in the profile15:29
seb128desrt, that's the unity7/legacy/unconfined case, I want to do like today on xorg15:29
willcookeMeeting about to start :)15:29
seb128right15:29
willcookesorry15:29
desrtthen you need to bindmount the user's ~/.config/dconf dir _and_ the user's xdg_runtime_dir/dconf dir15:29
desrt*not* the files.. the dirs.15:29

desrtspent last week at the gtk hackfest with attente, which is awesome15:37
desrtconvinced upstream that relocatability of libraries in the gnome platform is something that we should aim for as a gnome goal.  ie: it is a bug if a gnome library doesn't support it15:37
willcookenice!15:37
desrthad the scope/size of the required glib patch increase quite a lot since now i need to make this "The Way" for handling this stuff -- including on mac and windows15:37
desrttalked with alex a lot about flatpak, specifically the portals stuff.  his original proposed design was a bit overengineered in my opinion, and was written in a way that would probably hurt us and/or cause us to have to rewrite a lot of it.  we discussed refactoring it to improve the ability to share things more15:38
desrti am in the middle of writing up a report from the hackfest wrt. flatpak15:38
desrteof, i guess15:39

willcooke* Spent more time learning how to snap with snapcraft. Managed to get a couple of snaps built and mostly working, need to patch a package to look for a config file in a different place, so need to learn how to implement a custom plugin for now to do this.15:49
willcooke* Started working on the pulseaudio snap, updating it to work with the new snapcraft, and manage to get it built, again without patches. Sed patches are needed to make pulse behave in a snap environment. Will likely have to make configuration changes to probably run it system wide if used in a snappy only environment *sigh*15:49
