| GunnarHj | jbicha: Hi Jeremy! | 13:14 |
|---|---|---|
| GunnarHj | To test my g-c-c proposal I updated the binaries built by gnome-desktop3 to version 3.27.90-1ubuntu1. However, I still have libgnome-desktop-3-12 3.26.2-1ubuntu1 too, and when I tried to remove it, apt suggested that I'd remove basically the whole desktop.. | 13:14 |
| GunnarHj | Is that a problem, and if so, is it something you are aware of? | 13:14 |
| GunnarHj | jbicha: Should libgnome-desktop-3-17 provide libgnome-desktop-3-12 or something? | 13:17 |
| jbicha | no, we are in the middle of a gnome-desktop3 transition | 13:57 |
| jbicha | the new library is stuck in bionic-proposed, maybe it will migrate on Monday or Tuesday | 13:57 |
| jbicha | it's a bit tricky to downgrade packages like that (not officially supported) | 13:57 |
| jbicha | but if you're going to do it, try something like | 13:58 |
| jbicha | sudo apt install libgnome-desktop-3-12/bionic gnome-desktop3-data/bionic gir1.2-gnomedesktop-3.0/bionic | 13:58 |
| jbicha | an important part is that you get all the related packages together | 13:59 |
| jbicha | oh, I misread. Yeah, you won't be able to remove libgnome-desktop-3-12 until you get all the packages that are built against it (they are in bionic-proposed now) | 14:00 |
| jbicha | I don't support this PPA but you might be able to just add this PPA, upgrade and then remove the PPA (because I'll delete the PPA in a few weeks probably) | 14:01 |

| GunnarHj | jbicha: Thanks for explaining! I'll won't add that PPA - don't want to get so deeply involved in the transition. Now I know that everything is under control, and that's why I asked. :) | 14:29 |
| jbicha | gnome-desktop3 was supposed to be an easy transition (see everything worked in the PPA) but it's ended up taking us several hours of work | 14:45 |
| jbicha | two MIRs need to be processed and some packages removed and the mesa transition to finish | 14:46 |
| GunnarHj | jbicha: Oops, sounds like I stumbled upon a can of worms. | 16:29 |
| GunnarHj | jbicha: Any thoughts from you on | 16:31 |
