-SwissBot:#xubuntu-devel- ::xubuntu-artwork:: [greybird] r527 Don't add padding to the buttonbox in notifications... (by Simon Steinbeiß)03:35
Unit193...So all the people interested in running xfce4-panel plan to run from git, no?  Eg, no point in me sticking it in xfce4-gtk3?13:44
ochosiUnit193: i guess not, the last release is quite up to date so it should be packagable13:48
ochosinothing really critical was added after 4.13.113:48
ochosiand it would really be good to get some testing whether xfconf+panel are stable now13:49
Unit193Right, compatible with xfconf is the reason I'd do it, but seems like there's not really much call for it.13:49
ali1234Unit193: i might build -panel from git, but PPAs are useful to get the dependencies still13:53
ali1234but i'm still on 16.04 and no plans to upgrade until 18.0413:54
bluesabreI find it useful, but could probably package it myself for my own use13:56
ochosiwell, if you guys package it, put it in a PPA...13:56
bluesabreWe should push it for testing if we are considering it and other 4.14 components for 18.0413:57
Unit193Fine, I can do that later today.13:57
ochosithanks a bunch!14:00
flocculantbluesabre: yea - that :)16:54
Unit193Hrm, now I'm seeing: W: APT had planned for dpkg to do more than it reported back (10 vs 13). Affected packages: evince:amd64 indicator-sound:amd6419:41
Unit193bluesabre: Is it just me or does xfsettingsd --replace not exactly work as well now?  Seems to leave the older version around.21:58
bluesabreUnit193: I think it works... definitely develop using it21:59
Unit193It's just restarts that don't seem to go as planned, otherwise seems fine yeah.22:08
ochosiwhat does "not as planned" mean specifically?22:09
Unit193As stated, leaves the older version running while starting a new one.22:09
ochosioh, sorry, now i understand what you meant there22:10
ochosithat's odd22:10
Unit193bluesabre: No rush for us, we missed FF. :/22:11
ochosii'm contemplating how bad the idea is to try to target 18.04 for xfce 4.13.x22:13
ochosiin case 4.14 isn't released until the22:13
ochosin22:13
Unit193Developmental releases in a LTS release...Sounds painful, was a bit painful last time.22:14
ochosiyeah i know22:14
ochosijust sucks cause ppl cling to their LTSs for a long time22:15
ochosiso we'll get bugreports for 4.12 for some time to come (which we will ignore)22:15
Unit193Well...I mean, "long term"22:15
Unit193Debian stable is even longer too.22:15
ochosiyeah22:16
Unit193I'd like to stage everything in xfce4-gtk3, though.22:16
ochosi(sorry for not really participating much in the devel planning for 17.10)22:16
ochosiUnit193: yeah, that sounds like a good idea22:16
bluesabreI see the convo is here, as it should be :D22:16
Unit193It's just, I don't want to be running certain ones, and it feels backhanded pushing things I won't run myself. :322:17
Unit193bluesabre: I suppose I should give you the honors with pa-plug next cycle? :P22:17
ochosiwhich ones would you not want to run?22:17
bluesabreUnit193: Sure thing22:17
Unit193ochosi: I wondered if, for merging the notification plugin, you'd use reposurgeon or if base git tools are easy enough.22:20
ochosiUnit193: i tried with the git onboard tools, it works okayish22:20
ochosithe history of both branches is there, the only downside is you have several commits that would never compile and conflicting histories for files that overlap (makefiles etc)22:21
ochosinot sure any other tool could really handle this more gracefully without completely rewriting history with some black magic22:21
ochosior is reposurgeon a tool that does that..?22:21
Unit193It's supposed to do voodoo with git. :322:23
ochosii'll take a look at it22:25
ochosiat some point i was also considering to just do what bluesabre did with some of his other exploits and create a huge squashed commit22:27
Unit193Unfortunate, but understandable.22:28
ochosifwiw i had the local histories of both branches in master already22:28
Unit193http://paste.openstack.org/show/K1jqK4vtfBDrCLec7Nds/ look about right? :322:39
* ochosi wouldn't know22:44
Unit193Crap, OK.22:45
