gpiccoliDid a distro-upgrade yesterday, rebooted the machine; suddenly my mate desktop was bugged and audacious player was gone! The guilty:gtk2-engines-pixbuf was not installed anymore00:00
gpiccoliTried to reinstall it, got: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23866507/00:01
gpiccoliThen, I downloaded the deb package and modified the dependency to match the requested one, worked fine00:02
gpiccoliSo, who's "wrong", gtk2-engines-pixbuf or libgtk2, that is reporting it's version as 2.24.30-1ubuntu1.16.04.100:02
gpiccoli?00:02
gpiccoliShould I fill a LP?00:02
sarnoldgpiccoli: does dpkg --get-selections | grep -i hold report anything?00:06
gpiccolilet me check sarnold00:06
gpiccoliis this the command sarnold: "sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep -i hold" ?00:07
gpiccoliit's empty00:07
sarnoldI didn't require sudo on mine. but that's curious, the error says something about held packages, so I expected to see one. :)00:07
sarnoldI have the impression the "2.24.30-1ubuntu1.16.04.1 " version should only be in -proposed; if you're not actively testing something from proposed you could disable that pocket in your apt configuration, I guess, but it might still be worth figuring out why you only got half the package update apparently :/  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk%2B2.000:09
gpiccolioh sarnold, but I manage to bypass the original error by changing the deb package control file00:09
gpiccolisarnold, enabled proposed in the past, to install kernel 4.8; then disabled right after and I expected it wouldn't mess with any packages of mine00:10

Laneypmcgowan: no, it was done from my POV15:26
pmcgowanoh, it was reverted15:26
Laneythere was something broken in xenial touch that made it break the session15:26
pmcgowanright15:27
Laneyright, but sil2100 will take care of re-uploading once that is fixed15:27
pmcgowanhmm, ok will look elsewhere thanks15:27
Laneysorry15:27
sil2100Yeah15:27
pmcgowannp15:27
LaneyI think Saviq was looking?15:27
sil2100Saviq said Robert Ancell would have to look at it probably15:27
sil2100IIRC15:27
SaviqRobert did say he'll have a look, yes15:27
pmcgowansil2100, this bug is a pain, and I couldnt install the old debs for some reason, screwed up my system15:28
Laneyyou could re-apply the diff in a silo or PPA or something15:28
Laneyif it's just for personal usage15:28
pmcgowanI can work around it by removing the unity8-session then reinstalling when I need it15:29
pmcgowanSaviq, can we see that he is looking?15:29
Laneywell, or hack /usr/share/upstart/sessions/dbus.conf15:29
pmcgowanLaney, oh?15:29

tjaaltonwhy do the text dialogs in launchpad flash in orange when clicking on them?20:17
sladenfocus?  confirmation?20:18
tjaaltonthat's a bit too obvious confirmation20:18
tjaaltonthis is with firefox, dunno about other browsers20:20
tjaaltonholding the left button on a comment box keeps the box orange20:21
tjaaltonseeing it on both zesty and xenial, so guess it's a firefox feature now20:22
dobeytjaalton: on a bug comment box?20:23
sarnoldtjaalton: that's a new firefox thing20:23
sarnoldI never figured it out but it's damned annoying20:23
dobeyyeah i am not seeing what you describe, in chromium20:23
dobeysounds like some a11y feature in firefox20:24
tjaaltonsarnold: phew, I'm not the only one then :)20:24
tjaaltondobey: yep20:24
sarnoldsame thing happens on e.g. edit text boxes on wiki.ubuntu.com and http://paste.ubuntu.com/20:25

fossfreedomhi all - can I ask a question here please with regards to ubuntu's lightdm package?  I'm trying to work out why unity-greeter is being installed in Ubuntu Budgie - I think its being install by lightdm - I've never seen this syntax for the recommends section of the debian/control file - what does this mean?20:41
fossfreedomRecommends: unity-greeter | lightdm-gtk-greeter20:42
sarnold| seperates alternations, similar as regex https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html20:43
fossfreedomsarnold: so unity-greeter is always installed when you install lightdm?20:46
tjaaltonnot if you install lightdm-gtk-greeter as well20:47
sarnoldfossfreedom: unless lightdm-gtk-greeter is already installed.. probably apt-get install lightdm lightdm-gtk-greeter would also skip installing unity-greeter20:47
fossfreedomsarnold: so I shouldn't explicitly add a depends on lightdm?  just on lightdm-greeter when should then install lightdm but not unity-greeter?20:49
fossfreedom* when which20:50
sarnoldfossfreedom: I'm not sure what to recommend.. (a) I'm not awesome at debian packaging, I just happened to know this one :) (b) I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve in the end20:55
fossfreedomk - thanks for the hints.  our packaging has not explicitly added "unity-greeter" anywhere - but its some how being installed on the ISO.  Ubuntu Budgie uses lightdm and lightdm-gtk-greeter - so I'm trying to figure out why unity-greeter is being pulled onto the ISO.20:58
sarnoldfossfreedom: hrm. are you in a position to apt-get purge unity-greeter and see what else would be removed?21:00
krytarikfossfreedom: I'd think it's too far down the dependency chain - adding it to the seed directly should solve it.21:00
fossfreedomhmm - that sounds interesting - I guess that will mean a rebuild of our meta-package?  Yep could try that.21:02
clivejocan anyone explain or point me in the direction of instruction on how to only build for certain arch?21:28
cjwatsonfossfreedom: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/germinate-output/ubuntu-budgie.zesty/desktop says "lightdm (Recommends)", so I'd probably suggest adding lightdm-gtk-greeter to your desktop seed and see if that helps21:32
cjwatsonfossfreedom: you can run germinate against a locally-modified seed branch to test the changes21:32
cjwatson... ah, krytarik got there before me too21:33
cjwatsonyes, it would require rebuilding the metapackage21:33
dokocoreycb, jamespage: looks like #1404227 was never closed for the distro package22:24
clivejodoko: We are being affected by this bug - https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=840293 is there any chance of patching the ubuntu version or syncing with Debian?22:46
ubottuDebian bug 840293 in libdpkg-perl "libdpkg-perl: Dpkg::IPC::spawn immediately closes FH after dup" [Important,Fixed]22:46
dokoclivejo, infinity: looks like a dpkg merge. not sure when infinity had planned that. but this merge has other nasty changes22:48
clivejodoko: any chance of getting a fix?  symbol helper has been broken in zesty for months now23:11
vincenttcwill python 3.5.3 be backported to xenial? I'm facing a bug in the email library that is fixed in that version23:30
sarnoldvincenttc: it's unlikely, python whole-version backports have caused severe trouble in the past23:30
sarnoldvincenttc: but if you can track down a commit that addresses your bug it might be able to be SRUd23:31
vincenttcsarnold: thanks, I was hoping it would be backported, since 3.5.2 was, but I'll try to find the specific commit then23:36
sarnoldvincenttc: oh, if 3.5.2 was backported and I don't remember any giant hassles, then maybe there's a chanve for 3.5.3. :)23:37
vincenttcsarnold: any idea how long that would take?23:37
sarnoldno, sorry23:38
vincenttcnp, thanks anyways23:38
cjwatsonit can't be as bad as updating through python2.7 maintenance releases ;-)23:40
