jbichaflexiondotorg: one issue that I believe Xubuntu was concerned about is that libatrildocument3 depends on libjs-mathjax00:43
jbichaalso GNOME these days offers libgepub which is integrated into the gnome-documents app (well technically GNOME Books) but not into evince yet00:44
jbichaso that needs a bunch of work probably, but that's a pointer if anyone wants to work on epub support in atril/evince00:45
jbichasee LP: #241736, GNOME doesn't seem very interested in it00:46
ubottuLaunchpad bug 241736 in evince (Ubuntu) "support EPUB format" [Wishlist,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/24173600:46
flexiondotorgjbicha: Thanks for the info. Very useful. 02:09

bluesabreUnit193, flexiondotorg, jbicha ... just going through the packages a bit briefly, might be able to decouple some of the depends and recommends to have some make requirements lighter https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WicgA_g4seBsMitXNVM5pmAIYf1cwSgqAzfK7yeqIHw/edit?usp=sharing05:14
bluesabreWill investigate more this weekend05:14
jbichaUbuntu's file-roller has this diff from Debian (Depend on zip & unzip instead of p7zip-full which is in universe)05:18
jbichathis might be nice to cherry-pick: https://git.gnome.org/browse/file-roller/commit/?id=219ca0705:19
jbichacherry-pick to engrampa I mean05:19
jbichaxubuntu-icon-theme doesn't provide engrampa.png yet05:23
bluesabreochosi: ^05:35
knomebluesabre, when upgrading to artful, the terminal loses one configuration bit; the custom cursor. more exactly, the custom color is kept but the option to use the custom color is disabled...13:44
bluesabreknome: might be something related to the gtk3 terminal13:48
knomeyeah, why not, but it's fixable by simply going to the settings and enabling this13:49
knomesomething to consider for 18.04 to make sure we're migrating smoothly :)13:49
mun24how to change wallpaper using remote shell?13:51
bluesabreknome, cool, want to file a bug report for that (to LP)13:51
bluesabremun24: #xubuntu is the support channel (... and I do not know the answer)13:53
knomebluesabre, i'll do it today13:55
bluesabreUnit193: debdiff for engrampa packaging, want to build and test? (works for me) http://paste.ubuntu.com/25988577/14:49
flexiondotorgbluesabre Initial upstream discussions about collaborating with Xubuntu and Ubuntu Unity have been positive.15:49
flexiondotorgWe should target upstream first for any required patches. 15:50
flexiondotorgWe are discussing creating a team for developers from other DEs using MATE applications on the MATE GitHub to streamline collaboration. Sound agreeable? 15:51
Unit193bluesabre: Part of the deal with GNOME was that they needed stuff only from main, but we can use universe just fine.16:02
Unit193So the only "regression" that's a feature lost in xfpm might be if the tray icon is gone, and I thought it was.16:03
bluesabreflexiondotorg: sounds good to me16:04
bluesabreUnit193: I figured that some parity between ubuntu and flavors would be a good thing16:05
bluesabreUnit193: re xfpm, I think that's being looked into currently, I'd expect a new release sometime shortly (ochosi, thoughts?)16:05
Unit193Mmm, depends.  Ubuntu loses features just because they're in universe, we simply don't have that limitation.16:06
bluesabreThough, I'm not opposed to shipping p7zip-full, I install it anyway to support 7z and other archive formats16:06
bluesabreDefinitely good for a broader discussion between flavors and definitely the MATE team :)16:07
Unit193Keep in mind I looked at xfpm a while ago then bailed, so I don't really know the current git state at all. :P16:07
Unit193Also lots of pings about Core.  1. I'm still of the mindset that after 4+ years, we shouldn't be renaming it as it's already known as 'Xubuntu Core'.  2. I'm not entirely sure, if the patches get in, what else there is that I've stopped bothering about.  I still keep an eye on the seed, but we don't make a lot of seed changes anyway.16:10
bluesabreUnit193: could you take another look and let us know what issues are blocking xfpm for you?16:11
bluesabreEspecially since we've been avoiding it for ~2 years :)16:12
bluesabreRegarding Core, still seems like a better name to me, and that's not a good reason to block it16:15
Unit193I'd rather not, but I suppose I should.16:22
bluesabreThanks Unit193... I'll try to make sure bionic is not a headache for you :)16:23
Unit193Heh, thanks.  But some things are unavoidable.16:24
Unit193bluesabre: Also thanks for picking up core, and moving to mate components, and everything else I'm missing.16:27
bluesabreUnit193: figured we should start the LTS strong so there's time to fix bugs :)16:27
bluesabreand flocculant has been pushing us to get things done early too16:28
bluesabreQA people ;)16:28
Unit193I've nearly got my shiny package done so I can test re-installs again.16:36
knomebluesabre, hmm, apparently we also lost bold text color18:33
Unit193Works for me.18:35
knomehmm, and selection18:47
ochosiUnit193: the tray icon is not gone in 1.620:44
ochosiit's still there and fully functional20:44
Unit193...Did it go away and come back at some point?20:44
ochosino20:45
ochosiit was always there20:45
ochosibut in the experimental PPA i get an error20:45
ochosi xfdesktop4 : Depends: libgarcon-gtk3-1-0 (>= 0.6.0) but it is not going to be installed20:45
ochosiUnit193: you can enable it from the settings dialog's first tab, as always20:46
Unit193...Ok, so I remember it going away then coming back..Strange.20:46
Unit193ochosi: Also, that really shouldn't be a problem..20:52
ochosiUnit193: now, thinking back, i think there was a release where we dropped it or considered dropping it but the fact that lxde/lubuntu was using it at the time was a deciding factor not to do so. but anyway, in 1.6 it's still there21:43
ochosiwhat to do about that packaging problem of garcon and xfdesktop though?21:43
Unit193ochosi: Right, the lxde panel plugin was added, then the whole ordeal was reverted afaik.  And, as I said it *should* be fine, considering it was all built against everything.  I'm presuming you're on Artful.22:05
