darkxst | jbicha, winter is over, but I am still up in the mountains | 06:57 |
---|---|---|
darkxst | jbicha, well the reason we split it out was that at the time we didnt want it seeded at the time | 06:58 |
darkxst | so long as its working well still, then I am fine with that. | 06:58 |
darkxst | I've not really had a chance to run since a while | 07:01 |
darkxst | ^run wayland | 07:01 |
mgedmin | new office printer -> System Preferences sees it but fails to add it -> that would be because system-config-printer-gnome is not installed !?!? | 07:02 |
mgedmin | which package is supposed to pull it in? | 07:02 |
mgedmin | hmm, gnome-control-center Recommends it, so why isn't it installed? | 07:03 |
mgedmin | curious how every desktop metapackage (ubuntu-desktop, ubutnu-mate-desktop, xubuntu-desktop, ...) also recommend it, but ubuntu-gnome-desktip doesn't | 07:04 |
mgedmin | waaaait a second | 07:32 |
mgedmin | /var/log/dpkg.log suggests I had system-config-printer-gnome installed, just an older version? | 07:33 |
mgedmin | that being 1.5.7+20160212-0ubuntu2 | 07:34 |
mgedmin | but I'm sure I checked apt-cache policy and it wasn't installed | 07:34 |
mgedmin | hmm maybe dpkg.log says that about packages that were removed prior, with just conffiles remaining | 07:34 |
mgedmin | did an upgrade remove this package, or maybe ppa-purge? | 07:35 |
mgedmin | it was in the middle of my do-release-upgrade run, according to the timestamp | 07:38 |
darkxst | mgedmin, system-config-gnome was seeded again in yakkety | 07:57 |
darkxst | ^printer | 07:57 |
mgedmin | "seeded" means "included on the install iso", yes? | 07:57 |
darkxst | yes | 07:57 |
darkxst | and upgrades | 07:57 |
darkxst | there was some dbus? daemon put into that package by debian that is required for g-c-c printers to work | 07:58 |
mgedmin | I don't know what to say -- I ran 'sudo do-release-upgade' (didn't want the GUI upgrade after the lock screen pain I suffered during wily -> xenial) and as system-config-pronter-gnome was removed halfway though the upgrade, according to dpkg.log timestamps | 07:58 |
mgedmin | maybe I should've used --mode=desktop | 07:59 |
jbicha | mgedmin: I'm curious, when did you do the yakkety upgrade? | 10:43 |
jbicha | this by the way is the reason why metapackages have so many things as Depends instead of Recommends because recommends can get accidentally removed and break things | 10:45 |
mgedmin | Oct 15 | 10:47 |
mgedmin | https://dpaste.de/arjz ("Priklauso" is "Depends" in lt_LT) | 10:49 |
jbicha | mgedmin: could you file a bug, I suggest against ubuntu-release-upgrader if s-c-p-gnome got removed during do-release-upgrade | 10:51 |
jbicha | darkxst: do you have one of those dual-gpu laptops? | 10:55 |
