| jbicha | I guess you decided you're going to release 32-bit isos? | 11:07 |
|---|---|---|
| jbicha | Ubuntu GNOME will eventually stop since it's like double the work at iso release time | 11:08 |
| fossfreedom_ | jbicha: thoughts of when Ubuntu GNOME will make that decision? | 11:10 |
| fossfreedom_ | LTS? | 11:10 |
| jbicha | well if Budgie announced now that it was amd64 only, that might help us follow now | 11:11 |
| jbicha | the downside is we're sort of stranding whoever install Ubuntu GNOME 16.10 32-bit | 11:11 |
| fossfreedom_ | let me do a poll of the community. Will get back to you. | 11:12 |
| jbicha | because of that, there's an argument that we should wait until after 18.04 LTS | 11:12 |
| jbicha | thanks, it might be good to decide by Feature Freeze next week | 11:12 |
| fossfreedom_ | jbicha: yep - we'll splat this over social media (just done the G+ poll) - will make a decision monday coming | 11:23 |
| jbicha | I'm working on updating GNOME to 3.23 Beta (towards 3.24 Final) for zesty over the next week, any concerns with that? | 11:25 |
| fossfreedom_ | jbicha: the only big issue we have is mutter moving to 3.24 - we'll need to test this carefully on our side. | 11:31 |
| jbicha | I did an initial test with mutter 3.23.3; the budgie desktop at least loaded | 11:32 |
| jbicha | the mutter devs have made a lot of commits since 3.23.3 | 11:32 |
| fossfreedom_ | thanks - the other key test is running stuff full-screen - that caught us and upstream at 3.22 | 11:33 |
| jbicha | it's a bit tricky to test right now because mutter and gnome-shell need to be upgraded together | 11:33 |
| jbicha | but gnome-shell needs an updated gjs which needs an updated mozjs | 11:33 |
| jbicha | and you need gnome-shell working if you want to test using gdm3 | 11:33 |
| fossfreedom_ | BTW - 10.3 version of budgie-desktop upstream have decided to drop mutter in favour of compiz - unfortunately too late for feature freeze | 11:34 |
| jbicha | but I'll ping you next week when it's easier to try out, should be gnome 3.23.90 then too (which means GNOME is supposed to be at API/feature freeze) | 11:34 |
| jbicha | wait, compiz?? | 11:35 |
| fossfreedom_ | yes - you read that correctly | 11:35 |
| jbicha | what happened to the qt proposal? | 11:35 |
| fossfreedom_ | QT is still on the table - what they want is a fallback for X - they want QT for wayland stuff. Ikey is not a happy bunny with how much workarounds and issues that people encounter with each new mutter release | 11:36 |
