tsimonq2I'm publishing the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter at the moment, I haven't seen the Desktop Team update in a few weeks... am I missing it or is it just not being published? :)06:03

jibeldidrocks, both "ubuntu" and "ubuntu xorg" log me in x11. is it known? It's an upgraded machine not a fresh installation07:39
didrocksjibel: no, so it means we still have the session bug in gdm :/07:39
didrocksjibel: can you get from a vanilla machine some reproduceable steps?07:39
didrocksthat will help debugging07:39
jibeldidrocks, bug # ? or you want a new bug?07:40
didrocksbut clearly, gdm is mixing up session07:40
jibeldidrocks, I'll try an upgrade07:40
didrockshum, let's reopen the old one, one sc07:40
didrockssec*07:40
didrocksjibel: upgrade not selecting the right session (or ubiquity not setting the right session after installation) is probably a different bug07:40
didrocksjibel: we are talking here about: you select "ubuntu" and got xorg, (so ubuntu-xorg), right?07:40

jibeldidrocks, yes. I have a choice between "ubuntu" and "ubuntu on xorg" and get ubuntu-x11 in both cases07:42
didrocksjibel: ok, so if you can get that from a vm, with reproduceable steps, that would be great07:43
duflukoza, looking now (I hope it's easier than fixing meson problems :)07:43
didrocksjibel: and let's get another bug report for upgrade (if there is any issue) and installation (where you mentioned there is one)07:43
didrocksjibel: making sense?07:43
didrocksreally bad that you select a session in gdm and it's giving you another one…07:43
didrocksprobably an offset "somewhere"07:43
jibeldidrocks, yeah07:44
duflukoza, I think a bug report (titled "Please release...") and debdiff is now required, based on https://git.launchpad.net/~bluetooth/bluez/log/07:58
kozaduflu, merged so you have pushed it to artful already, nice07:59
duflukoza, yes and updated the changelog again. Do you want me to do the bug/debdiff/release?08:00

flexiondotorgdidrocks We've been getting mixed reports about some snaps not working, at all, for some users.09:39
flexiondotorgI've been investing a few and so has popey, and we've potentially found a solution.09:40
flexiondotorgIt appears to be related to LD_LIBRARY_PATH "order".09:40
flexiondotorgIn the desktop helpers the original LD_LIBRARY_PATH is prepended, but we've found that is some (perhaps all) cases appending the original LD_LIBRARY_PATH is resolving the issues.09:42
flexiondotorgI'd be interested to know if the desktop helpers prepend the existing LD_LIBRARY_PATH on purpose and for a good reason that I'm not aware of?09:43
dokowhat is the difference of the desktop-packages and desktop-bugs teams?10:02
dokoas a bug subscriber?10:02
Laneydunno, I think we're using desktop-bugs though10:12
LaneyMirv: I added it, it's probably best to talk with the owning team before in future though10:16
jameshthe initial polkit support branch has been merged to snapd master10:20
Laneynice10:27
Laneywhat's next?10:27
willcookejamesh, nice, congrats!10:27
jameshLaney: polkit wise there's two avenues to improve things: (1) extend the support to package install/remove so gnome-software can function without a store login, and (2) get better integration with the snap command line tool (e.g. make sure interactive auth is only enabled if there is a terminal, and use the tty agent)10:29
jamesh(1) still seems to be a bit controversial, but should be easier to argue with the initial support landed.10:30
Laneyseems the approach they like is 'provide a patch and we can argue on the PR'10:30
jameshyep.  The patch for (1) is going to be a few lines of XML config and setting a field on a few more Command structs10:32
jameshall the logic to support it exists now10:32
Laneywill gnome-software need modifying?10:32
Laneyor does it only ask you to login if snapd refuses the request?10:33
GammaDraconisGnome Software is bad !10:35
GammaDraconisIt is very incomplete10:35
jameshlooking at the code, it might not.  It looks like it is set up to authenticate on error10:35
* Laney nods10:35
LaneyI think I remember seeing that10:36
GammaDraconisIt lacks a lot of software10:36
jameshwe'll probably want some snapd-glib changes to make use of this though: we can replace all the snapd-login-service code with direct communication with snapd10:36
GammaDraconis(in Gnome Software)10:36
GammaDraconisOn the French forum of ubuntu, many users are dissatisfied with gnome software (cf with Didrocks, he is aware)10:38
jameshGammaDraconis: is there particular types of packages it isn't showing that you think it should?10:39
GammaDraconisi don't understand very good your question10:41
jameshGammaDraconis: you say gnome-software is incomplete.  I'm asking what you think is missing10:42
jameshI'm trying to understand what we could do to improve things10:42
GammaDraconisI have no example on the moment (I do not use personnaly) but it is what is said on the forum.10:43
GammaDraconisThere is not only that as a problem10:45
GammaDraconisgnome software is low10:45
GammaDraconisand bug10:45
jameshIt definitely takes a while to start the first time, yes.10:45
GammaDraconisFor example with VLC : https://framapic.org/TjhhSMoFMCH7/tsynDWoaTsT5.jpg10:46
MirvLaney: thank you! I didn't realize the owning team must be from a specific list (if there's one, the "owning" word at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMainInclusionRequirements could be linked or explained a bit more), so we initially thought ~giellatekno-hfst-voikko would be enough as the team to monitor the bugs10:46
GammaDraconisbug10:46
Mirvthat said, it's been obvious that Canonical needs to stand behind the main packages so..10:47
GammaDraconisand i find that totem is a bad choice (for video) because it does not read much format without external codec. It would be better to put MPV or VLC instead10:49
Laneyjamesh: Did you get my email last night? (I'm not sure because I sent it from my phone; maybe that doesn't work....) Wondering what the status of the Snap plugin for Builder is - I kind of lost track a bit :(10:51
LaneyBasically we were wondering if we could/should try to get it into 17.1010:51
jameshGammaDraconis: totem should have pretty similar format support with gstreamer1.0-libav installed (this is essentially the same ffmpeg codecs the other players use)10:51
GammaDraconisWhy would you prefer totem than vlc or mpv?10:53
jameshLaney: yeah.  I don't have much to report on gnome-builder yet.  To implement things the way upstream wants, I need some snapcraft extensions.  I've described what I'd need on the forums and got some feedback, but at this point I'll probabably need to look at doing the snapcraft bits myself10:53
GammaDraconisMost users know VLC because it is multiplatform (windows, mac, linux, android...)10:53
jameshGammaDraconis: totem matches the overall style of the rest of the desktop, and is using the same media framework as other GNOME apps10:54
GammaDraconisWould be more convenient to use the best-known software and he is free/libre10:54
jameshGammaDraconis: also, there are legal reasons why the libav/ffmpeg codecs aren't installed by default10:55
GammaDraconisVlc and mpv fits well into gnome10:55
jameshthey are problematic in countries with software patents10:55
GammaDraconisAs much propose vlc10:57
GammaDraconisAnd in addition vlc is a French software (and France is the best country as you know)10:58
jameshGammaDraconis: if that's how you pick software, you'll be happy to know that totem's main author (Bastien Nocera) is also French10:59
GammaDraconisGood ! but i prefer vlc, it is more complete.11:00
GammaDraconisMpv is not bad either11:01
GammaDraconisVLC > MPV > Totem11:01
GammaDraconisThe complete passage to Gnome 3.26 is for when on Artful ?11:02
GammaDraconisCurrently, gnome-shell is still in 3.2411:03
jameshGammaDraconis: I haven't really looked into the current state of media playback on the desktop, but we definitely used to have a system where you'd get prompted to install codec packages when first trying to play an unhandled file.  That would be the preferred way to fix the problem of totem not handling enough formats11:04
jameshthere is a gstreamer1.0-packagekit package in universe, but I don't know how well it works11:05

jibeljbicha, okay, I'll check with a new installation11:46
didrocksflexiondotorg: yeah, it's on purpose, you should use first the libraries you are embeeded in your snap rather than the ubuntu core provided one, as this is the snap philosophy, correct?11:47
flexiondotorgdidrocks Yes, I agree that we should first use the libraries from the snap.11:49
flexiondotorgBut I don't think that it what is happening.11:49
flexiondotorgBecause the snap paths are appended to the existing LD_LIBRARY_PATH. So are in fact, not found first.11:49
flexiondotorgThis is an example of what we have in the helpers now:11:50
flexiondotorgexport LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$RUNTIME/usr/lib/$ARCH/mesa11:50
flexiondotorgWhich I think should be:11:50
flexiondotorgexport LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$RUNTIME/usr/lib/$ARCH/mesa:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH11:50
didrocksflexiondotorg: appended, not prepended?11:52
didrockshum11:52
didrocksno11:52
didrocksecoh $LD_LIBRARY_PATH11:52
didrocksecho*11:52
flexiondotorghttps://github.com/ubuntu/snapcraft-desktop-helpers/blob/master/common/desktop-exports#L2311:52
didrocksyes, but that's not all the story11:53
flexiondotorgI suspected ;-)11:53
didrocksfirst, snapcraft prepend the $SNAP path to LD_LIBRARY11:53
flexiondotorgWhich is why I'm asking.11:53
didrocksthen, the launcher is called11:53
didrocksthat's what it's appended11:53
flexiondotorgCurious.11:53
didrocksmaybe in some of those snaps, snapcraft didn't prepend the correct paths for them?11:53
didrockslook at their .wrapper script11:53
didrocks(the one generated by snapcraft)11:54
didrocksthis is why I don't prepend to it11:54
didrocksor the RUNTIME will be before the $SNAP one11:54
didrocks(RUNTIME being platform snap)11:54
didrocksmaking sense? (at least in theory?)11:54
flexiondotorgThe snaps I'm looking at are all using the desktop helpers. To avoid adding any other variable.11:54
flexiondotorgSome are classic some are strict.11:55
flexiondotorgBut adding a new launcher that prepends the $SNAP LD_LIBRARY_PATH is correcting the issue.11:55
didrockshum11:56
didrocksthe desktop helpers isn't design to work on classic11:56
didrockslook at their .wrapper script11:56
didrocksmaybe they are "classic snap"11:56
didrocksand so snapcraft doesn't add anything to the .wrapper script11:56
didrocksand this is why11:56
didrocksdid you read my ubuntu-make blog post serie about classic snap?11:56
didrocksI mentioned this :)11:57
flexiondotorgdidrocks Yeah, needed for classic Electron applications. Which have ship there own launcher as well.11:57
flexiondotorgI have read lots from you and z_yga about classic.11:57
flexiondotorgWe can for the moment ignore the classic snaps.11:57
flexiondotorgSince the issue is present in strict snaps.11:57
flexiondotorgI'll gather LD_LIBRARY_PATH from all the affected snaps and see if that helps identify anything.11:59
flexiondotorgFor example, has snapcraft regressed? I'll investigate.11:59
flexiondotorgdidrocks Thanks for the info.11:59
didrocksflexiondotorg: yeah, I bet it's classic snap only11:59
didrocksflexiondotorg: yw! really look at this .wrapper script12:00
didrocksI guess it will be a good start12:00
flexiondotorgI'll ignore classic snaps for now and just focus on understanding why certain strict snaps are not working as expected.12:01
* ogra_ notes that 'especially* in classic snaps you want the $SNAP/lib path prepended to LD_LIBRARY_PATH since they can ship their own libs and newer versions 12:02
didrocksI wonder if there is a way via an env variable to detect classic snaps12:06
didrocksand that way, have the desktop launcher doing the $SNAP prepending12:07
didrocksjbicha: we should do that, indeed12:13

jbichadidrocks: oh we already don't publish ubuntu-desktop/s390x, if we want ./update to stop trying to do desktop/s390x, maybe we need to split ubuntu-desktop into a different source package?12:21

didrocksjibel: gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme12:22
jibeldidrocks, I don't have yesterday's image, but Im pretty sure it was correct12:22
didrocksjibel: try a gsetting reset just in case12:22
didrocksjibel: hum, ubiquity wasn't, right?12:22
jibeldidrocks, u-dm was not but the live session was12:22
jibeltoday both are broken12:22
jbichamaybe that ubuntu-desktop split is something to try earlier in the cycle, I don't want to break things like that this week12:22
jibeldidrocks, but I'll double check12:23
didrocksjibel: I was expecting u-dm to be broken, but not the live…12:23
didrocks(due to this env variable not triggering glib to read the correct keys ^)12:23
didrocksjibel: mind doing this gsettings get?12:23
jibeldidrocks, rgsettings returns Adwaita12:23

didrocksthe css diff itself is easy anyway, not big, just wondering if I tackle some other things…13:11
jbichadidrocks: I think gjs will migrate in an hour or so when its autopkgtests complete, and then I'll upload mutter and gnome-shell (mutter's soname was bumped so it needs easy NEW processing)13:12
didrocksjbicha: ok, sounds like doable if it's in an hour ;)13:12
jbichaso I think gnome-shell will migrate today but I don't know if excuses will come up with some excuse13:12
willcookejbicha, re: captive portal - did you have anything prepared to upload for enabling it?  Would like to get that switched on before FF if poss.13:14

Laneymaybe14:08
Laneydepends what's going on14:09

jlnrThis morning the hot corner for "Activities" disappeared. Is there any way in the Ubuntu session to get it back? I know there's an extension to disable the corner, but is there one to *enable* it?15:48
jbichaLaney: I believe gnome-shell 3.25.90 can still work with gjs 1.48/mozjs38 if you want to remove gjs, gnome-shell, polari, gnome-sushi from artful-proposed to try to do the gnome-shell transition first15:52
jbichaI mean, if we find an AA to do those removals15:53
Laneymaybe it's okay to remove gjs/armhf, I don't know, what do you think?15:54
jbichagnome-shell might not run on zesty/armhf but I don't have the hardware to know for sure15:55
jbichagjs is used by more stuff than gnome-shell but if you can't run our default desktop, I'm not sure those other apps are that important?15:56
jbichaso I'd vote to drop gjs/armhf, it can be restored later this cycle if it ends up working, but it's holding things up now15:58

popeyoSoMoN: any luck with chromium snap today?16:39
oSoMoNpopey, haven't looked at it myself, but flexiondotorg was looking at that LD_LIBRARY_PATH ordering issue16:41
popeyoSoMoN: i dont think he got any further than asking if we needed to do something with the desktop launchers, and asked didrocks if there was some reason they were ordered the way they were16:45
oSoMoNpopey, ok, so I don't have a config where the chromium snap fails to launch, the issue is nvidia-specific, right?16:46
popeyoSoMoN: it fails on nvidia with the binary driver, I don't know where else it fails, but it certainly fails there16:46
oSoMoNpopey, and you confirmed that prepending the paths instead of appending them fixes the launch issue, right?16:47
flexiondotorgI can give Chromium a go.16:48
popeyoSoMoN: I haven't forked the entire desktop launcher, just added some lines to your chromium launcher16:48
popeyI am concerned that we have a completely broken high profile snap in stable channel. it doesn't look very good.16:49
oSoMoNpopey, if I produce a snap with the modified desktop launcher, can you try it?16:49

popey(that's my favorite way to build snaps)17:21
oSoMoNpopey, yeah, but I went the route of unsquashfs the original snap, modify it and resquash it17:24
oSoMoNI’ll try the delta thing, that sounds like it could work17:24

oSoMoNkenvandine, popey: didrocks was talking about the ordering earlier today, and apparently there are good reasons for it to be the way it is, so this probably requires careful thinking before we just go ahead and change it17:57

ricotzoSoMoN, hey, seeing this dbaccess_RowSetClones test problem of libreoffice with amd64 is not a good sign :(18:09
jbichakenvandine: I'm not sure your commit is right: https://git.gnome.org/browse/simple-scan/commit/?id=e11adfdf3b1ad18:10
jbichawould that make the Ubuntu packages much larger for things like gnome-user-docs/gnome-getting-started-docs ?18:11
oSoMoNricotz, no it's not, indeed. Where is this happening?18:16
ricotzoSoMoN, with 5.2.6~rc1 on zesty/amd64 with 4.4.0-92.11518:17
ricotz(a ppa build)18:18
ricotzonly zesty -- xenial and trusty succeeded18:19

oSoMoNricotz, have you already retried it?18:22
ricotzoSoMoN, I grabbed the log and retried it18:22
oSoMoNgood, let's see what happens18:24
ricotzstill not a good sign18:25
ricotzoSoMoN, are you aware of any progress on that kernel bug?18:26
oSoMoNpopey, does https://dashboard.snapcraft.io/dev/snaps/8166/rev/22/ work for you the same as 21 ? (it’s using kenvandine's patch for the desktop helpers)18:27
oSoMoNricotz, there doesn't seem to be much activity on that bug unfortunately18:28
popeyoSoMoN: will test18:34
oSoMoNthanks18:34
kenvandinejbicha, is it actually making it larger?18:40
kenvandinei doubt it made much of a difference for simple-scan18:40
kenvandinebut gnome-user-docs might18:40
kenvandinejbicha, it was leaving dangling links which breaks the snap18:41
popeyoSoMoN: chromium snap 22 launches on both intel and nvidia, but on intel chrome://gpu shows hardware acceleration, on nvidia its doing software18:41
popeyneed to look into that18:41
oSoMoNpopey, did 21 show actual HW acceleration on nvidia?18:42
popeyre-testing, i think not18:42
popeytwo separate issues here.18:43
popeyyeah, 21 software rendering too18:43
oSoMoNok, so in fact the "fix" is not really doing what it should, it allows the snap to launch, but it's not finding the gl drivers18:45
popeyyeah18:45
popeygets past one issue to another18:45
oSoMoNpopey, wanna comment on the forum thread, or want me to do it?18:46
popeyfeel free :)18:46
oSoMoNok18:46

kenvandinei guess the issue i'm having with thumbnails and eog is really path related, not confinement19:24

rbasakI can turn this behaviour on and off by demand.21:38
rbasakI wondered what a text login VT would do.21:38
rbasakIt seems that my lock screen (gdm?) is on vt1, vt2 has a text login running, and vt3 is my desktop session.21:39
rbasakI don't know if that's normal.21:39
rbasakBut if I switch to vt2, then toggle the caps lock, the light doesn't change state. However the username input does change state.21:39
rbasakIf I toggle once and switch back to vt3, the inversion is gone and everything is normal.21:39
gQuigsyea, it is gdm doesn't have the desktop session be the same always21:40
rbasakI can reproduce the issue by switching to vt2, pressing the caps lock, and then switching back to vt3.21:40
rbasakAnd again to turn the behaviour off.21:40
rbasakCan anyone else reproduce please?21:40
gQuigsI can't reproduce, but all my machines are running lightdm still - did find the logout issue that I believe made us choose gdm though21:46

sunweaverxnox: jbicha: some time ago jbicha thought about handing over upstream maintenance of libdbusmenu over to me.22:31
sunweaverIs that still an option? At the moment the debian/watch file of the Debian package points to the orig tarball in the Ubuntu pool.22:31
sunweaverWhich is sort of suboptimal.22:31
ochosiLaney, jbicha: hey guys! i quickly wanted to point you to an upstream gtk+ regression that already bit arch and debian and is going to affect us in 17.10. i know this may not be problematic for the gnome-shell, but indicator-sound and some other implementations that rely on a similar widget (GtkRange/Scale inside a GtkMenuItem) will break in rather awful ways. that includes some xfce panel plugins that cannot be fixed (at least not withou22:32
sunweaverIt would be good to have an active upstream with release tarballs or tags.22:32
ochosiLaney, jbicha: and without further ado, here's the bugreport: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78602922:32
ubot5Gnome bug 786029 in Widget: Other "clicking on gtk-slider makes the parent disappear" [Major,New]22:32
sarnoldochosi: irc has line length limits; you were cut off at "at least not withou"22:32
ochosirly? that's strange. worked fine here22:33
ochosibut thanks for the note, i'll re-paste the rest22:33
sarnoldochosi: yes, many clients don't know anything about it or how to handle it :(22:33
sunweaverxnox: jbicha: also Laney: would it make sense to move libdbusmenu over into the context of Ayatana Indicators?22:33
ochosiLaney, jbicha: continuing from above (as i was cut off): "(at least not without removing quite crucial functionality). unfortunately the response upstream was not as positive as i had hoped (apart from garnacho who provided a  working patch for the regression he caused).22:34
ochosiLaney, jbicha: what are your thoughts on this? on the one hand i've never been a fan of carrying "random" patches downstream, otoh not having the patch will make at least  xubuntu a little broken in prominent places... would you mind to weigh in on the upstream bug? (sorry that i just presume you're "on our side" since the indicator-sound widget was born in  ubuntu-desktop land...)22:34
sunweaverxnox: I will also try to clean-up the current Ayatana Indicator packages upstream next week and then upload the full stack to Debian unstable EOnW or week after.22:34
ochosisunweaver: if you're taking care of ayatana indicators then the bugreport i linked may also be of interest to you22:34
* xnox doesn't have time to talk about this right now. there is a bucket and a half of things broken in artful at the moment, and we are supposed to freeze tomorrow =)22:35
sunweaverQuick question: would there be any volunteer to de-phablet the indicator-datetime and/or indicator-sound?22:35
sunweaverochosi: yes, noted.22:35
jbichasunweaver: could you email/ping willcooke and L_aney about turning over maintenance of indicator stuff?22:36
xnoxwe did do some dephablet, there is merge proposal to make url-launcher not depend on ubuntu-ui-toolkit which thus makes most indicators _only_ depends on the c++ url-launcher code22:36
sunweaverochosi: you maybe in exchange find this interesting, if not yet spotted: https://sunweavers.net/blog/node/6022:36
xnoxbut not on the custom ubuntu-ui-toolkit22:36
xnoxthat is good for now.22:36
sunweaverxnox: ack. So, url-launcher would actually have to be made available in Debian, right?22:37
sunweaverIs url-launcher maintained as a proper upstream project on LP?22:38
sunweaverhttps://launchpad.net/url-launcher -> Launch microsoft internet explorer URL files with the default browser.22:38
sunweaverurl-dispatcher, we are talking about, right?22:38
jbichaochosi: please open a LP bug for the gtk issue and ping us again next week22:39
ochosisunweaver: oh, indeed, that's interesting. so one thing that depends on the indicator stack in xfce/xubuntu is this: https://git.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-indicator-plugin/22:39
sunweaverjbicha: ack.22:39
sunweaverwill do that on Friday, tomorrow I have a day off.22:39
jbichaok22:40
sunweaverochosi: yes, I know. I will work on MATE integration first, then XFCE.22:40
ochosiawesome!22:40
sunweaveron the Debian side first...22:40
ochosisure22:40
sunweaverjbicha: can you propagate the fix for the slider bug to the Debian BTS, too?22:41
jbichasunweaver: does the bug affect you?22:42
xnoxsunweaver, also yunit?ubiports? they still care about both touch stack and indicators....22:43
jbichaif so, maybe you 2 should ping flexion about it :)22:43
sunweaverme personally, not yet, I guess. But once indicator-sound has been ported to ayatana-indicator-sound, I fear it might.22:43
xnoxsunweaver, i was somehow hoping that maybe the code can be kept as a single base, and have touch bits still available and/or maybe compile time optional.22:43
ochosisunweaver: fyi, the affected widgets in xfce use the exact same widget (it was borrowed from indicator-sound)22:44
xnoxunless we need a clean break / fork and have "x11"-classic indicators and qml-indicators code22:44
sunweaverxnox: ack about compile-time optional.22:44
xnoxcause maintaining 3 sets of, mostly, common code doesn't sound engineering wise the most optimal way forward22:44
* sunweaver nods.22:45
sunweaverthe idea is to reduce effort and widen the user base...22:45
sunweaverI will compile-time disable url-dispatcher code in the indicators that I'll port in the near future.22:46
sunweaveralso, I must check how much I have removed already in the projects already available via Debian.22:46
* sunweaver lacks brain capacity...22:47
sunweaverxnox: jbicha: I am also think about re-adding support for the com.canonical.Unity DBus interface.22:49
ochosijbicha: here's the downstream report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/171270122:49
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1712701 in gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) "Clicking on a GtkRange inside a GtkMenuitem makes the parent disappear" [Undecided,New]22:49
sunweavercurrently, it is supported under a different (more generic) name (which might be nonsense to have): org.ayatana.Desktop22:49
jbichaochosi: you said "Debian" but it's not been reported in Debian's bug tracker yet, right?22:55
ochosiit has been22:55
ochosibut i don't have the report id handy22:56
ochosii can try to find it though if that helps22:56
ochosioh, there it is22:57
ochosii'll add it to the launchpad report22:57
ochosijbicha: added the debian report to the launchpad report22:58
jbichadarkxst: btw, I hesitated uploading mutter 3.25.91 to the Staging PPA because of https://bugzilla.gnome.org/78666022:59
