Unit193bluesabre: Poke.02:02
Unit193flocculant: Could be worse, if you install thunar-gtkhash and try to open properties of any file, thunar crashes. :D02:18
Unit193bluesabre: Looking at http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/packagesets/zesty/xubuntu and http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/xubuntu.zesty/supported I think we should put xfdashy since we plan on supporting it.  Also, we have a few thunar plugins, but not gtkhash (another source package, don't want it) and thunar-dropbox-plugin, which we also may not want.  I'm not sure if 02:21
Unit193there's anything else we maintain, but don't ship we might want to add in there (-pulseaudio is already there.)02:21
flocculantknome: "Is there a specific reason we drop the direct link? If we do that, it would be probably fine to merge these two paragraphs together for good." yes there is a specific reason - it takes ages to get our docs updated - and this is still pointing at xenial ...11:58
knome;)12:00
knomeok12:00
knomefair enough12:00
flocculant:)12:00
flocculantPlease use – instead of - only got - on my kbd12:04
knomecopy-pasta?12:05
flocculantperhaps standardise PPA's and ISO's to PPAs and ISOs - easier to type :)12:05
knomeyep12:05
knomeas i wrote, anything with that works for me12:06
flocculantanyway - I'll wait for slickymaster then finish it sometime in the next cycle 12:06
flocculantseems to be the doc method :p12:06
flocculantyea - makes no difference to me either12:06

bluesabreUnit193, thanks for the info, we definitely want to add xfdashboard to supported, and probably any of the thunar plugins (that are just thunar plugins), since we're kinda in charge of them by default16:23
flocculantafternoon16:50
=== acheronuk_ is now known as acheronuk
flocculantUnit193: not crashing here :p17:09
flocculant\o/ for thunar's weather responsive crash pattern :)17:10
knomebluesabre, ping?17:24
flocculantknome: what's with 2–3 instead 2 -3 anyway?19:27
knomethat's the proper sign to use... :P19:28
knomeor character tbe19:28
krytarikA hyphen in this case though.19:28
knomeno19:28
knomeNO19:28
knome:)19:28
krytarikYes!19:28
knomewhenever you denote a scale like "two to three" you should use an en dash19:29
knomenot a hyphen19:29
knomethis is the most important thing i learned while studying...19:29
knomethe en dash in this context is called "rajakohtailmausviiva" in finnish, fwiw19:30
knome:P19:30
flocculantstudying what?19:31
knomesocial services :P19:31
flocculantand obv I meant 2 - 3 not 2 -319:31
knomespacing should be stripped too :P19:32
flocculantso this hugely important thing in English - doesn't appear on a UK keyboard ... 19:32
knomehttp://open.knome.fi/2011/10/17/give-me-the-endash/19:32
knomeit doesn't in a finnish keyboard either19:32
knomebut i think that's a misjudgement :P19:32
flocculantjust because it's on the internet doesn't make it right ... 19:33
knomeare we arguing about this the whole night again :)19:33
flocculantnope - I got some stuff to do in a bit :p19:33
knome:P19:33
=== Justanick1 is now known as Justanick
flocculantjust got some thunar crash again 19:42
flocculantsigh19:42
flocculantanyway - I'll wait for slickymaster before I do more - he can weigh in on the ISOs/ISO's thing too :p19:44
Unit193ochosi: -glade is actually in zesty.20:29
Unit193!info libxfce4ui-glade zesty20:29
ubottulibxfce4ui-glade (source: libxfce4ui): glade API for libxfce4ui. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.13.1-1ubuntu1 (zesty), package size 4 kB, installed size 31 kB20:29
Unit193Ooooh, I was going to have someone look at the description first, whoops.20:30
ochosiawesome sauce Unit193 20:32
Unit193flocculant: Really?  Did you killall Thunar  first?  I get it everywhere I try. :320:32
Unit193ochosi: So once you bump to Zesty, you can play with it. :P20:32
ochosiflocculant: the question is though whether that is still the original issue that was reported there or whether you're just seeing some other bug/crash. i'd try to really separate the testcases, cause that helps the developers a lot to reproduce and determine where it comes from20:33
Unit193Oh, didn't you have a taskman coming down the pipes?20:34
ochosiyup20:34
ochosii actually have two(!) taskman releases in the pipe20:34
ochosione is the last gtk2/3 release, and i also have a gtk3-only port that is practically ready20:34
Unit193Which is for Zesty?20:34
ochosinot sure, that's up to us20:35
ochosii'll probably release 1.2.0 tonight20:35
ochosiand then merge the gtk3_only branch to master20:35
ochosiso translators can start to work on the few changed strings20:35
ochosiyou can try it out if you want20:36
ochosiit has headerbars, so you're probably not going to like it ;)20:36
ochosihttps://github.com/ochosi/xfce4-taskmanager/tree/gtk3_only20:36
ochosii'd be happy about some feedback20:36
flocculantUnit193: had reboots in the mix20:43
flocculantochosi: not convinced that the bug report in question isn't a bunch of different things anyway :(20:44
ochosiwell it has been polluted by various different topics i'd say20:44
ochosibut the rename bug seems gone, for me at least20:44
flocculantyea agree on that20:44
ochosimoving may still crash it sometimes, as your testing suggests, but the renaming seems stable20:45
ochosiso i'd prefer to push the patch to master and close the bugreport, to establish a new baseline which people can test and then more cleanly report new bugs that pop up20:45
flocculantin which case we've got thunar crashing out on moving and copying20:45
ochosiwell tbh it never happens to me20:45
ochosiso it doesn't seem excessive or clearly reproducible (at least to me, so far)20:46
flocculanton this topic - from an Xubuntu pov - we've got 14.04 going eol soon - replaced by an lts with a broken file manager - from a qa point this just gets worse :p20:46
flocculantochosi: I crashed it a while back moving 1 file20:47
Unit193ochosi: Correct, but I use htop anyway so don't have to replace it.20:47
Unit193flocculant: Huh, OK..20:47
flocculantUnit193: this is with the git thunar20:47
flocculantochosi: patch/patches?20:48
Unit193Mine has been 1.6.10-2ubuntu3~17.04.020:48
flocculantright - I removed that one and went back to git20:48
flocculantUnit193: ok so - removed git, got ~17.04.0 and i/o error on trying properties on a file and a crash20:52
ochosifor LTS we can try and SRU once everything has been merged to master and released20:53
ochosithat would definitely improve the experience of those in 16.0420:53
Unit193Hrm, actually what else are you planning to use headerbars on?20:53
flocculantochosi: so re Thunar - I guess I'm the only one reporting that they've got major issues still with it as far as copying/moving things20:54
ochosiUnit193: not sure, this is just an experiment with taskmanager, also to get more feedback from the community20:55
ochosinow that the topic seems less flamey20:55
ochosiin theory it shouldn't be hard to make it a compile-time switch20:55
ochosior even an option, but it feels a little over-the-top to me20:55
flocculantUnit193: so what difference is there between ppa thunar and git - I thought none? but this is the same as when I was testing last week - easier with the ppa one ...20:57
Unit193I thought the git version was easier to crash last time?20:58
flocculant... went for Restart Later, got Restart Now20:58
flocculantUnit193: not that I remember 20:58
Unit193OK good, the version in Ubuntu crashes with gtkhash now, so no regressions.20:59
flocculant:)21:00
Unit193At this point, the patches seem to help some, so as long as there's no regressions from adding them, I think ochosi wants them in.21:01
flocculantto be honest a mate using xubuntu does the same sort of large file movements - he's seen the same issues as me21:01
flocculantUnit193: ack - I'd say they help some - as did the last ones - certainly don't make it worse21:01
flocculantand I agree it might be better to re-report with a clean bug once that master has patches 21:02
flocculantwhich won't be hard for me to do :)21:03
ochosiUnit193: hrrrm, the german translation was only updated to 88%, i think i'll have to give the guy another day to finish22:13
Unit193Alrighty, nobody said which we'll go with so no rush. :P22:14
ochosiother than that, i've prepared the release notes for the 1.2 release of the task manager22:14
ochosiflocculant: have you tried this one yet (which claims to fix moving and it's from two days ago): https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1226022:17
ubottubugzilla.xfce.org bug 12260 in core "Thunar crash on cut/paste multiple files" [Critical,Reopened]22:17
