oSoMoN | good morning desktoppers! | 05:09 |

andyrock | good morning! | 06:46 |
liuxg | when I build a Qt project, it shows me "Project ERROR: mlite5 development package not found".. what is the installation package for mlite5 on Ubuntu 16.04? thanks | 07:09 |
jamesh | liuxg: what is the project? | 07:10 |
liuxg | jamesh, it is my company project :) | 07:10 |
jamesh | liuxg: I think the library you're looking for is https://git.merproject.org/mer-core/mlite -- I don't think it is packaged for Ubuntu though | 07:12 |
liuxg | jamesh, do you have any clue what is the package for it? I searched on internet, some project also needs this. | 07:12 |
liuxg | jamesh, yeah, you are right. we are a project based on the mer. | 07:13 |
jamesh | liuxg: there's an RPM spec file in that tree, where the summary reads "Useful classes originating from MeeGo Touch" | 07:13 |
liuxg | jamesh, true. our system is derived from meego. | 07:13 |
jamesh | liuxg: you might have to build it yourself. | 07:16 |
jamesh | liuxg: I don't see any PPAs with it either. | 07:17 |
liuxg | jamesh, yeah, let me see. thanks for your reply. | 07:17 |

mpt | Trevinho, hi, can you tell me a bit more detail about what kind of effects the lowgfx setting alters? | 12:43 |
mpt | Is it drop shadows, or animations, or blurs, or what? | 12:44 |
Trevinho | mpt: there's a good recap here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWUyP-oTRVg | 12:44 |
seb128 | good morning Trevinho! | 12:45 |
Trevinho | hi seb128 | 12:46 |
Trevinho | how are you? | 12:46 |
seb128 | Trevinho, good! you? | 12:46 |
mpt | excellent, thanks | 12:46 |
Trevinho | good, just got some lunch and walk around my place in Florence... | 12:47 |
Trevinho | seb128: are you in coworking? | 12:47 |
seb128 | Trevinho, sorry for being picky on that review, I should perhaps just have acked it so we don't waste too much efforts since there are not going to be lot of artful unity users | 12:48 |
seb128 | Trevinho, not today, just having lunch/coffee outside, then going back in a bit | 12:49 |
seb128 | Trevinho, and you? where do you work from today? | 12:51 |
Trevinho | seb128: home too | 12:51 |
Trevinho | seb128: but I went to a local food stand here to get some very local sandwich | 12:52 |
seb128 | was it good? | 12:52 |
Trevinho | seb128: I love it... http://lampredotto.net/ :-D | 12:53 |
Trevinho | It might not look good from the description, but trust me... it's amazing | 12:53 |
Trevinho | not much for summer, but i was missing it too much | 12:53 |
Trevinho | seb128: as per the review, no problem.. it's something I wanted to do anyway as this is at this point is mostly xenial focused | 12:54 |
seb128 | I guess that's one of those places that don't look too attractive when you look at their website but where the food is great :-) | 12:56 |
Trevinho | seb128: well the website is just a genereal one. There's not just one place to get it. you get it in stands around the city and nearby. But really just in Florence area. You won't find it anywhere else in italy and hardly in Tuscany. | 12:58 |
seb128 | I see | 12:59 |
Trevinho | looking good is not its thing... http://imgur.com/qdLyQGp.png But the taste... ohhhhhh <3 | 13:01 |
seb128 | :-) | 13:01 |
oSoMoN | yummy, that sandwich looks good | 13:07 |
Trevinho | oSoMoN: this might look worse https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1c/Lampredotto_sandwich.JPG :-D | 13:08 |
Trevinho | it's one of the stomaches of the cow... So, might look weird. | 13:08 |
seb128 | brb | 13:10 |
mdeslaur | uhm, yuck :) | 13:10 |
=== heber_ is now known as heber | ||
Trevinho | mdeslaur: no tust me: paradise... Well unless you don't eat meat. | 13:11 |
mdeslaur | Trevinho: I'd probably like it, as long as nobody told me it was the stomache :) | 13:11 |
mdeslaur | s/the/one of the/ | 13:12 |
Trevinho | mdeslaur: cow has 4 of them, it's easy to pick one | 13:12 |
* mdeslaur bites down on cow magnet | 13:14 | |
Trevinho | mpt: thanks for the info, as for the radios, you want them inline? | 13:17 |
mpt | Trevinho, horizontal? Yes please | 13:17 |
Trevinho | mpt: and what about separators? | 13:18 |
mpt | It’s okay for a group of radio buttons to be horizontal when there are only two of them | 13:18 |
Trevinho | ok, as I thought it was breaking a little the symmetry (probably the only thing which that panel has) | 13:18 |
Trevinho | mpt: visual effects... I keep it bold? | 13:20 |
mpt | Separators and bold are where we have to weigh up consistency, vs. the awfulness of the design of the rest of the panel | 13:21 |
Trevinho | mpt: I mean, how do I mix that in the rest? | 13:22 |
mpt | yeah | 13:22 |
mpt | Trevinho, I would say, keep the separator, because (unfortunately) if we don’t add one, it will look as if it’s related to the menu settings | 13:23 |
Trevinho | mpt: also I wouldn't use "Hight", but just "normal" or "default" | 13:23 |
mpt | Trevinho, but no bold. There shouldn’t have been any bold in this panel in the first place. In this case we can get away without it because there are already some settings that don’t use bold (workspaces and desktop icon). | 13:24 |
mpt | Trevinho, “Low” and “Normal” would make sense IF you knew that the value that wasn’t “Low” used to be the only possible value. But I’m designing for people who don’t know the history. :-) | 13:27 |
Trevinho | mpt: then instead of "low", something like "optimized for lowend devices", said it well? | 13:28 |
Trevinho | s/well/better | 13:28 |
mpt | Trevinho, that would make it more obvious, if it was the only reason for you to toggle it. But you might also toggle it to save battery, or because you often get motion sickness. | 13:31 |
Trevinho | Ok, as you wish... I just don't think "high" is really an "high" level of effects, but it's fine :) | 13:32 |
Trevinho | Medium maybe :-D | 13:32 |
mpt | I’d happily call it “Medium” if we also had a “High” with wobbly windows and fire and lasers | 13:33 |
Trevinho | yeah, someone wanted to do that too | 13:33 |
Trevinho | but I guess it won't happen, nor it will change | 13:33 |
Trevinho | mpt: is this ok? I don't ove the fact that the description isn't aligned to the radio, but that's because the radio is an image... And i can define a left margin value, but that might be not true for other themes :-/ https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/xDhbihdZ/ | 13:49 |
mpt | Trevinho, please add as much vertical padding around this section as there is around the first and second sections | 13:50 |
Trevinho | ok | 13:51 |
mpt | Trevinho, please also add some space between the radio buttons and the caption below | 13:52 |
Trevinho | yep | 13:52 |
Trevinho | mpt: better? https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/25Vufs1J/ | 14:08 |
mpt | Trevinho, yes, thank you | 14:08 |
Trevinho | mpt: I might also redesign inline the "shoe menus" part... But, at this point it's probably a waste | 14:09 |
mpt | Trevinho, well, if you’re bored, I could give you a dozen other things to fix in that panel | 14:09 |
Trevinho | mpt: not really bored :-), but I whish we had it fixed at the golden unity7 times | 14:10 |
mpt | Yeah, I did this way back in 2014: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Appearance?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=launcher-and-menus.png | 14:10 |
=== lan3y is now known as Laney | ||
mpt | And for Unity 8 I worked with a visual designer on this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Appearance?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=launcher-settings.wide.mockup.png | 14:11 |
seb128 | Trevinho, mpt, it looks a bit weird that the menus options use a bold label without ":" and that the visual effect is a different style | 14:11 |
Trevinho | mpt: these are way better indeed | 14:11 |
Trevinho | well, especially the u8 is cool | 14:12 |
seb128 | cyphermox_, hey, did you get anywhere with the n-m/nplan mtu issue? | 14:12 |
Trevinho | as for the ucc, yeah.. it would have better to have a different panel instead of the ucc one... I think I had enough things to do at the time to work on the ucc side though. | 14:13 |
mpt | seb128, Trevinho: I’m guessing that adding the missing “:” to the other settingswould break the translations. But removing the bold wouldn’t. | 14:13 |
Trevinho | mpt: my, also removing the bold would | 14:13 |
mpt | oh, shame | 14:13 |
Trevinho | as it's using markup | 14:13 |
Trevinho | mpt: can you approve the MP too? | 14:25 |
Trevinho | and seb128 for the code side | 14:26 |
mpt | done | 14:27 |
seb128 | Trevinho, done | 14:28 |

didrocks | Ubuntu session == G-S with Ubuntu tweaks | 15:35 |
didrocks | Gnome session == upstream vanilla G-S and themes | 15:35 |
didrocks | Unity session == Unity7 session | 15:35 |
didrocks | Made several tests on a VM. | 15:35 |
didrocks | * Handle the whole migration/default seeding/hard to transition due on pep8 autopkgtests failing (fixed update-notifier) | 15:35 |
didrocks | * Talked about theme snaps on reddit | 15:35 |
didrocks | * Gave some guidance on tutorials.ubuntu.com code. | 15:35 |
didrocks | * Reviewed and merge Ken's desktop helper instructions and additional path for new GNOME platform snap. | 15:35 |
didrocks | * Still some debugging with Amazon GG team. Finally got it to work! Confirming it's a bug on their side though and would require changing /etc/resolv.conf, which we can't :) Asked them for an ETA before publishing a snap. | 15:35 |
didrocks | * Worked with olli on preparing Linux Tage near Stuttgart. Helping on the workshop, prepared a technical slide deck content and retested our tutorials. | 15:35 |

seb128 | * Published gnome-3-24 snap in stable channel | 15:40 |
seb128 | * Submitted branch to snapcraft-desktop-helpers to handle the update to gnome-3-24 platform, which has been merged | 15:40 |
seb128 | * Worked on the LightDM -> GDM3 transition and determined our initial strategy might be too hard on flavors and existing users. Sent an email with some ideas to ubuntu-devel list, and got some great feedback. I think the best approach is: | 15:40 |
seb128 | - In ubuntu-session postinst, check the current session for all users and if any of them are set to 'ubuntu' switch the default to GDM3. | 15:40 |
seb128 | - Make gdm3 depend on ubuntu-session to ensure ubuntu-session postinst is run before gdm3 is configured. Leaving the prompt in gdm3, which is only shown if gdm3 isn't set as the default already. | 15:41 |

Trevinho | flexiondotorg: as for 4109... mh, it doesn't apply clean not sure if that is a problem only with different metacity, let me check | 16:58 |
jbicha | I tried to install a snap in Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 and it's warning me in Azerbaijani I guess https://bicha.net/i/snap-yuklemek.png | 18:06 |
muktupavels | jbicha: would you accept patch that adds settings to change Metacity theme in gnome-tweak-tool? Something like this - https://paste.ubuntu.com/24964911/ | 18:29 |
jbicha | muktupavels: what desktops support that setting? | 18:29 |
muktupavels | jbicha: GNOME Flashback | 18:30 |
jbicha | I think we should only show that setting when Flashback (or other desktop that uses that setting is running) | 18:32 |
jbicha | I don't like the Type switcher in that patch either | 18:33 |
muktupavels | I can change that and open also bug, just wanted to know if you would accept that. | 18:34 |
jbicha | btw, aday thinks I should change "Shell" on that page to "System" but I've hesitated on that | 18:34 |
muktupavels | What do you not like about type switcher? code or setting? | 18:34 |
jbicha | muktupavels: I don't know yet because I'd like to visualize it first, so maybe | 18:34 |
jbicha | the UI | 18:34 |
jbicha | it doesn't match the other settings on that page | 18:35 |
jbicha | you shouldn't have to use a combobox just to see the metacity setting, it should just be its own separate setting | 18:36 |
muktupavels | Do you have better idea? Metacity can load/use old metacity themes from metacity-1 and also GTK+ theme that is used by Mutter and CSD windows. | 18:36 |
jbicha | why would we want users to use Metacity themes if they could just use GTK themes? | 18:37 |
jbicha | (I've now gone from "maybe" to "probably not") ;) | 18:38 |
muktupavels | If I remember then users was not happy when mutter removed metacity themes. I did not want to remove them from metacity... | 18:40 |
muktupavels | Also gtk-window-decorator use libmetacity to draw themes. | 18:41 |
jbicha | I haven't used Flashback for years so I don't really understand how the themes work there | 18:44 |
jbicha | that setting feels complicated, how have people been handling changing their theme for the past ~5 years? | 18:45 |
muktupavels | That settings is not so old... | 18:45 |
muktupavels | You can try to install metacity. Then just use `GTK_THEME=Adwaita metacity-theme-viewer` | 18:46 |
muktupavels | With Ambiance theme headerbar is not visible... :( | 18:46 |
jbicha | I'm still uncertain about this, but… | 18:49 |
jbicha | why not just an on/off switch to use a custom metacity theme and then a combobox to choose the metacity theme | 18:50 |
jbicha | I don't think it's useful to have metacity use a different gtk theme than the regular gtk theme | 18:50 |
jbicha | when did you introduce these settings? | 18:51 |
muktupavels | when gtk+ is selected then name should be disabled, it is not used in that case | 18:51 |
muktupavels | 3.20 | 18:51 |
jbicha | oh, it doesn't do that in your patch yet | 18:52 |
muktupavels | yes. I first wanted to know if I would not waste time... | 18:52 |
jbicha | the gsettings value might have been a bit simpler as a regular string with like 'gtk' as a magic value | 18:53 |
jbicha | but I don't think there's an easy way to migrate gsettings so never mind | 18:53 |
muktupavels | it is enum | 18:54 |
jbicha | maybe your proposal could still present a single combobox with one of the options in the box be the GTK option | 18:54 |
jbicha | that would make it look simpler to the user and match the other settings on that page | 18:56 |
jbicha | (although it's more complex to code that) | 18:56 |
muktupavels | yes, currently it should work. | 18:56 |
jbicha | I'm back to "maybe" now :) | 18:56 |
jbicha | btw, it might be cool if Tweak Tool would be more visual in its theme chooser but I don't know what we want the UI to be for that | 18:57 |
jbicha | maybe some sort of theme previewer | 18:57 |
muktupavels | libmetacity was updated in way that in future there might be other theme type, but I doubt that it will ever get that. | 18:58 |
muktupavels | did you try metacity-theme-viewer? | 18:59 |
jbicha | yes | 18:59 |
muktupavels | and you want something similar in tweak tool? | 18:59 |
jbicha | I don't know | 18:59 |
jbicha | the theme settings go into effect immediately so maybe it's not needed? | 19:00 |
jbicha | mate-apperance-properties has a preview | 19:01 |
muktupavels | I dont have opinion about that... | 19:01 |
jbicha | ok, I wouldn't worry about that since we don't have a design yet | 19:04 |
muktupavels | So you might accept patch that adds extra combobox? What about on/off switch + combobox, still valid option? | 19:04 |
jbicha | muktupavels: I counter-offered with just one combobox with Use current GTK theme (or whatever) as one of the options in the box | 19:04 |
jbicha | and please try to hide it when Flashback or metacity or whatever isn't running | 19:05 |
muktupavels | Ok. When updated patch will be ready I will open new bug. | 19:05 |
jbicha | thanks! | 19:05 |
jbicha | btw, you can also add metacity schemas as a run-time requirement in README | 19:06 |
muktupavels | I probably will check if running under GNOME-Flashback and metacity schema is available. | 19:06 |
muktupavels | I think that tweak tool should not require metacity schemas. :) | 19:09 |
jbicha | that would be nice if that works since maybe someday tweak tool could be in main and metacity may be demoted to universe | 19:10 |
* jbicha works to demote metacity now :) | 19:14 | |
* jbicha tries to bribe the Security Team to accept my MIRs by helping demote stuff to universe ;) | 19:15 | |
mdeslaur | hehe | 19:17 |
mdeslaur | yeah, all those metacity cves :) | 19:18 |
kenvandine | jbicha, i like this plan | 19:18 |

mitya57 | muktupavels, side note: please don’t use “except:” construction, because it will catch not-really-exceptions like KeyboardInterrupt or GeneratorExit. | 20:00 |
mitya57 | Please use “except SomeExceptionClass:” instead. | 20:00 |
muktupavels | mitya57: ok. | 20:01 |
mitya57 | muktupavels, also do you know some real world metacity-1 themes? Those that I know are very old and look very ugly. | 20:03 |
muktupavels | mitya57: adapta-gtk-theme? | 20:04 |
muktupavels | mitya57: do you think that we dont need setting for that? | 20:05 |
mitya57 | muktupavels, never tried it. Does it look worse when using it with GTK+ theme? | 20:06 |
muktupavels | I have not tried it... :P | 20:06 |
muktupavels | mitya57: "2. No GUI to change metacity theme." | 20:06 |
muktupavels | that is from mailing list | 20:06 |
mitya57 | I think GTK+ themes are nowadays better quality than metacity-1 themes, as every theme designer wants to support CSD apps but not every designer wants to support Metacity. | 20:07 |
mitya57 | muktupavels, that complaint is coming from Ubuntu user where Metacity currently defaults to metacity-1 themes. But in 17.10 it will default to gtk. | 20:08 |
mitya57 | (I.e. in 17.04 the only way to change metacity theme is use dconf/gsettings. In 17.10 just change Gtk theme and Metacity theme will change too). | 20:09 |
muktupavels | mitya57: then better to not add setting? if user knows that he wants metacity theme it will know how to change that? | 20:09 |
muktupavels | What about gtk-window-decorator? | 20:10 |
mitya57 | muktupavels, how is gtk-window-decorator different from Metacity? Or it is not able to use GTK+ themes? | 20:11 |
muktupavels | It should use same settings under GNOME-Flashback, GTK+ themes should work. | 20:12 |
mitya57 | So it is not different… | 20:12 |
mitya57 | I would say +0 for adding a setting. On one hand it will not have many users, on the other hand it won’t hurt either. | 20:12 |
jbicha | yeah, part of my concern is that I don't think theme devs care much about Metacity | 20:13 |
muktupavels | Metacity themes are used in MATE and probably in other desktops too, no? | 20:13 |
jbicha | if that request is coming from a 16.04 user, then maybe the problem is already solved now | 20:13 |
jbicha | flexiondotorg: ^ does MATE care about legacy Metacity themes? | 20:14 |
mitya57 | The problem will be solved with next Metacity upload/sync where I will drop the gsettings-override. | 20:14 |
muktupavels | MATE use marco that only supports old metacity-1 themes. | 20:14 |
mitya57 | Probably MATE/marco is the only reason why designers would add metacity-1 format to their themes. When marco adds GTK+ themes support or MATE switches to another WM that reason would be gone. | 20:35 |
GunnarHj | jbicha: Thinking... Maybe it's better that I start to reply on the MP first, and then we can talk about it tomorrow. | 22:18 |
jbicha | ok | 22:19 |
GunnarHj | jbicha: And yes, Europe work hours is fine. :) (You are in Eastern US, right?) | 22:20 |
jbicha | yes | 22:20 |
GunnarHj | jbicha: Ok, let's talk tomorrow then. And, btw, congrats to being a core dev. :) | 22:21 |
jbicha | thank you | 22:22 |
