tjaaltonduflu: libinput 1.10 is in unstable05:36
duflutjaalton, thanks05:36
tjaaltonalso, trackpoint on this t470s is still hardly usable05:37
duflutjaalton, I have no idea about trackpoint, but saw upstream reports about similar05:37
tjaaltonyeah I'm subscribed05:37
tjaaltonplaying with hwdb settings, nothing seems to work too well05:37
duflutjaalton, at a guess, try hacking libinput to force the acceleration profile = flat05:39
dufluAlthough that may be a particularly bad idea for trackpoints, not sure05:39
dufluOh. I forgot I have one on my bionic desktop (Lenovo SK-8855)05:40
duflutjaalton, I'm seeing jumping on at least one model of touchpad, like it's missing resolution still. Is that what you get with trackpoint?05:41
duflu(this trackpoint feels a bit jumpy too)05:42
tjaaltoninsensitivity with small movements, and acceleration ramps up way too quickly05:47
duflutjaalton, yeah I see the former05:47
tjaaltonthe first can be fixed by moving the slider all way down05:47
tjaaltonmore or less05:47
duflutjaalton, the latter I feel has always been true for all trackpoints, IMHO05:48
tjaaltonI use a thinkpad usb keyboard on my desktop05:48
tjaaltonhardly ever touch a mouse05:48

oSoMoNdoko, ricotz: so on i386 we want to relax the version requirement for openjdk-8-jre, right?09:01
dokooSoMoN: everywhere, we are unlikely to ship openjdk-8 at all09:03
dokooSoMoN: everywhere, we are unlikely to ship openjdk-9 at all09:04
dokoso not shipping 909:04
oSoMoNok09:04
oSoMoNas it happens a version requirement is specified only on i386, other arches just depend on an unversioned openjdk-8-jre09:04
oSoMoNdoko, what's up with openjdk-9, is it going to be removed from the archive?09:05
dokoit's a release which is only supported for six months09:06
oSoMoNricotz, does that look correct? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/jzqHVfW6Cj/09:13

oSoMoNgood morning jbicha12:22
tjaaltonjbicha: libglvnd MIR filed, but it still needs nvidia packages updated before it all can land12:29
jbichatjaalton: thanks. Are you working on the nvidia packages for that? tseliot?12:33
tjaaltontseliot is, one to go12:33

GunnarHjHi Laney, any doubt about13:50
GunnarHjhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit-1/+bug/1707898/comments/27 ?13:50
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1707898 in systemd (Ubuntu) "systemd translations are not synced with upstream" [Medium,In progress]13:50
LaneyGunnarHj: Didn't follow the issue closely - you want to avoid build-depending on PK or something14:00
Laneynot sure if those things are useful at runtime14:00
Laneywhy were they in the main pkg in the first place?14:00
Laneydon't tell me I did it14:00
GunnarHjLaney: You did it. :)14:00
Laneymmm can't remember the details14:01
jbichalol14:01
Laneythat was last year!14:01
GunnarHjLaney: See comment #24 in bug #1707898.14:02
ubot5bug 1707898 in systemd (Ubuntu) "systemd translations are not synced with upstream" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/170789814:02
GunnarHjLaney: I'm pretty sure those files are not needed at runtime.14:03
Laneyrighto, please file it at Debian then (don't forget Breaks+Replaces)14:03
Laneyyou'll need to fix anything else which Build-Deps on policykit-1 for these rules14:04
Laneyfwupd I think14:04
GunnarHjLaney: Is there a command to figure out which packages include policykit-1 in Build-Depends?14:06
Laneyreverse-depends -b policykit-114:06
Laney(ubuntu-dev-tools)14:06
GunnarHjLaney: Thanks. That list wasn't too long; I'll check them out. Can we use the LP bug as a base for the coming Debian commit?14:08
jbichaLaney: btw, the vcs-git -b thing is documented at https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/#version-control-system-vcs-fields14:13
LaneyGunnarHj: You can link to it but I think that a bug in the BTS should explain the problem on its own14:14
GunnarHjLaney: Ok.14:15
LaneyProbably write a short bug explaining and ask if the PK maintainers want to make this change first14:15
LaneyThen if they say no, it's not worth making other packages do this change, you haven't spent time writing patches/bugs that aren't needed14:15
GunnarHjLaney: Thought you were a PK maintainer. ;) This is a pure Debian/Ubuntu thing, right?14:16
Laneyyes14:17
Laneyand sure, but if it were me I'd add the pk-1 [!stage1] build-dep to systemd and move on with life. :-)14:17
Laneyjbicha: nice one14:18
Laneyand ... when did the policy get CSS?14:18
GunnarHjLaney: I wrote on the bug report about a less intrusive change: Create the package policykit-1-gettext with only those two files, and let policykit-1 depend on it. Then systemd could add policykit-1-gettext to Build-Depends, and we wouldn't need to bother with other packages.14:20
jbichaLaney: that was last year!14:21
jbichaGunnarHj: some Debian Developers try to avoid the NEW queue14:22
LaneyI woudn't make a package for such a tiny amount of data14:23
Laneyplus that14:23
jbichaone reason for that is that the ftpmasters sometimes reject packages for incomplete debian/copyright files even if the package is already in Debian14:23
jbichaso sometimes it's not less intrusive at all :(14:23
GunnarHjjbicha: Thanks for you comment on the bug report about other packages depending on policykit-1. I think I'll await Martin's response before proceeding with a possible move of polkit.{its,loc}.15:42
mvoLaney: hey, you did all the work for the integration of Components-$(ARCH).yml - for some time I was wondering what it would take to do something similar for the command-not-found data, i.e. create a indexfile with the binaries<->pkgs mapping (a subset of Contents-$ARCH essentially plus data from update-alternatives). whats your estimate about the amount of work?16:01
mvoLaney: the background is that there is a desire to show version information in c-n-f but that requires a bit more dynamic approach than we use now16:02
Laneyhey mvo16:02
LaneyIt's not that hard --- there's something in lp:ubuntu-archive-publishing (I think) for the appstream stuff16:03
Laneybasically launchpad rsyncs it from us and serves that up via the archive16:03
mvoLaney: and the lp bits are in the lp repo I presume?16:04
Laneythere's no LP bits, just the publisher step16:04
mvoLaney: I actually have the data already extracted daily, it would probably just take a small converter then16:04
mvoLaney: is the publisher not part of lp?16:04
mvoLaney: I mean, where could I look at how its integrated into the Release file :) ?16:04
Laneyhttps://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-archive/ubuntu-archive-publishing/trunk/view/head:/finalize.d/30-appstream16:05
mvoLaney: \o/16:05
mvoLaney: ok, that looks nice. do you have hints about how this gets into http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/bionic/InRelease?16:06
Laneynope, I think that's just part of the magic due to it being put into $STAGINGROOT16:06
mvoLaney: woah, thats even better16:06
LaneyColin would know more, but this side wasn't hard16:06
mvoLaney: great, I will talk to colin I think, this might actually be (much) simpler than I anticipated16:07
LaneyGuess you'll want to check if they are happy pulling from your current server or if you need to get a special one set up16:07
* mvo hugs Laney (with extra enthusiasm)16:07
Laneyappstream.internal is a dedicated box (in the cloud) for generating this16:07
mvoLaney: yeah, moving things around is probably needed but not a big deal16:07
* Laney hugs mvo - good luck!16:07
Laneyand the apt side for getting it onto the system is easy enough too16:08

kenvandinejbicha, could you please subscribe desktop-bugs to xdg-desktop-portal-gtk?21:50
jbichakenvandine: you have to ask Laney or seb128 (xdg-desktop-portal needs subscribed too)21:57
kenvandinejbicha, ok21:57
kenvandineit's the last thing i need to do on the MIR21:57
jbichago ahead and file the bug, the subscriber can be added later21:59
jbichahave a good weekend!21:59
