mgedmin"The Color Emoji feature of GNOME 3.26 is not available in Ubuntu 17.10." :(13:42
jbichamgedmin: it requires a new fontconfig version, an unstable release of cairo, and a color emoji font to be packaged (there isn't a font like that in Debian yet)13:44
jbichathese fonts are supported: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/fontconfig/tree/conf.d/45-generic.conf13:44
mgedminthanks for the explanation!13:48
* mgedmin is dying to try out gnome 3.26, but http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release still doesn't know about artful15:04
jbichamgedmin: could you ask in #ubuntu-release what their plan is for that15:06
mgedminI think they're probably busy actually doing the release15:07
jbichaplease do ask :)15:10
jbichabefore they all go to a release party or something15:13
mgedminsurely there's a big checklist somewhere?15:13
mgedminthere's no announcement email in https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2017-September/thread.html either15:14
jbichamgedmin: check October ;)15:18
jbichathe release itself is finished, some times they intentionally do wait to update the meta-release file but I haven't seen anyone ask yet15:19
jbichato confirm whether that's intentional today15:20
mgedminha!  there's no october in https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/, but thanks -- I would've kept refreshing the wrong page :)15:25
mgedminannoucement is out!15:30
jbichamgedmin: the meta-release file was updated17:16
jbichaenjoy17:16
mgedminhey so I upgraded to 17.10 but my boot splash still has ubuntu-gnome branding19:02
mgedminI wonder if I switched to it manually at some point in the past19:04
* mgedmin apt removes plymouth-theme-ubuntu-gnome-{logo,text} to see what will happen19:06
jbichathat will work19:06
jbichait is also possible to use update-alternatives to switch to a different plymouth theme19:07
mgedminwouldn't it make sense to remove the ubuntu-gnome theme automatically on upgrade?  since technically "Ubuntu GNOME" no longer exists19:07
* mgedmin is now googling for a way to reset the gdm look and feel to upstream19:08
mgedminsudo update-alternatives --config gdm3.css19:09
