[07:02] good morning desktoppers [07:18] Morning oSoMoN [08:01] good morning desktopers [08:26] Morning seb128 [08:26] hey duflu, how are you? [08:27] seb128, strangely very tired. You? [08:27] * duflu goes to make a dangerous /afternoon coffee/ [08:27] tired as well, but it's not so strange for me, I've been waken up at 6am every day since saturday [08:28] Fun times [08:30] indeed [08:37] o/ [08:38] seb128: are you that worried about the release? ;-0 [08:39] nah, that part is what makes me not sleep before 11pm :p [08:40] duflu, on that libav issue, yeah he's missing libsodium18 but that's a depends of gstreamer1.0-libav so that shouldn't be possible so either it's a missing file on disk or he's using a version from a ppa or something [08:40] ...and then fixing things in your dreams, which is why you wake up early to implement them while they're fresh ;-) [08:40] know the feeling [08:42] I wish [08:42] I'm just being kicked out of bed by a little one who doesn't want to sleep after 6am [08:43] ah :-) [08:46] seb128, are you sure? I checked this morning and didn't see the dependency [08:47] apt show gstreamer1.0-libav|grep -c sodium comes up with 0 [08:47] here too [08:48] * Nafallo digs [08:49] seb128, it sounds like the dependency on libsodium18 comes from libzmq5, which comes from...? [08:49] ffmpeg [08:50] duflu, http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/germinate-output/ubuntu.xenial/rdepends/libsodium/libsodium18 [08:51] ah. I was looking at bionic. sorry :-) [08:53] Nafallo, sorry, it's bug #1751769 [08:53] bug 1751769 in gst-libav1.0 (Ubuntu) "Some libraries that the gst-libav package relies on are missing." [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1751769 [08:53] duflu, right, he had a screwed libsodium from a ppa [08:53] "libsodium18:amd64 1.0.16-0ppa1~xenial1 [08:53] > debsums libsodium18 [08:53] /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsodium.so.23.1.0 OK" [08:53] seb128, yeah I just wrote that [08:54] duflu, now it makes sense :) [08:55] seb128, great, but also not. Next time I will remember to check for PPAs earlier [08:55] hey desktopers [08:56] Hi darkxst, Nafallo, and all I missed [08:56] hi duflu :-) [08:57] hi duflu [08:58] duflu, yeah, it's difficult, bugs due to the use of non official debs is not where most problems are so not where we tend to start [08:58] hi gang [08:58] Hi willcooke [08:59] hey willcooke, how are you? [09:00] Ive been through the old patches in gnome-session, see bug 1752024 [09:00] bug 1752024 in gnome-session (Ubuntu) "patch review of gnome-session" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1752024 [09:00] seb128, 9am meeting, so... ;) [09:01] willcooke, "fun" [09:01] meow [09:01] morning Laney :-) [09:02] right. shower and getting ready for the -14° and 9m/s wind trip to office lunch meeting :-P [09:02] bbl [09:05] have fun Nafallo [09:05] hey Laney, how are you? [09:09] hey Nafallo seb128 [09:09] seb128: good, some snow came overnight so I'm excited [09:10] maybe like 3cm!!! [09:10] what about you? [09:11] nice, here it's dry and frozen [09:11] I'm good, though a bit cold and tired [09:11] looking forward Budapest to be able to sleep until 7am : [09:11] :p [09:15] heh [09:15] the luxury [09:16] indeed! [09:19] Umm, the temperatures dropped to 24 the past two days. That was good [09:20] * darkxst is waiting for the frozen again, its been a warm summer! [09:24] you poor things [09:38] seb128: oh you asked me about ubiquity and changelogs - I think people usually add one in the same commit yes [09:39] missed that your change wasn't uploaded already [09:39] k, I know if for next time, thanks [09:42] Didier didn't write one either but I knew about this change so did it for him [09:43] makes sense [10:25] hmm. So it looks like xdg-desktop-portal's OpenFile API can be used to request opening a file the sandboxed app can't read [10:29] jamesh, So you can do file browsing to bits of the disk you shouldn't be allowed to? Does it actually open the file? [10:30] willcooke: it prompts the user for permission first, so there is another layer of defence [10:30] willcooke: but I'd assumed it was taking a file descriptor as a form of proof of access [10:31] however it uses an O_PATH file descriptor, and it is possible to create an O_PATH fd for unreadable files [10:31] Isn't the OpenFile API the one that the GtkFileChooserNative is using? [10:32] ahayzen: I'm talking about the one from the OpenURI portal. I'd forgotten there is a second OpenFile method [10:33] ah, but i thought the whole point of the portals was to give you access to things at runtime [10:33] eg like content-hub in ubuntu touch :-) [10:34] ahayzen: right. a sandboxed app can't usually look up or execute the application associated with a particular file type, so needs the portal [10:35] ahayzen: but you'd usually only want to let the app run the "open file" action on files it can actually read [10:39] Ah yes i see what you mean now there are two OpenFile's, one from the FileChooser portal and one OpenURI portal [10:59] jamesh, so does this break the greater portals plan - or we need to make changes upstream? [11:00] willcooke: I've filed an upstream bug. I'm not sure whether it is intentional or not [11:00] jamesh, cool thanks [11:00] https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/issues/167 [11:03] seb128, Laney - when we seed, e.g. Mines as a snap - will the minimal installer need to be updated to know that it's a snap not a deb? [11:03] willcooke, yes [11:04] seb128, is that easy enough? [11:05] willcooke, it shouldn't be too difficult hopefully, we talked a bit about it with didrocks before his holidays [11:06] to remove the snap? [11:06] yah [11:06] pretty sure that won't work [11:07] ubiquity change probs [11:07] we need an extra piece of code to deal with those yes [11:07] workaround is to not seed any snap that should be remove in minimal... [11:08] unfortunately, most of our planned snaps are exactly the sort of thing which would get removed in minimal :) [11:08] but yeah, with a bit of jigging about we can probably make that work [11:08] I'm not too concerned about it [11:08] lets see if we can get it to work first, but always good to have a plan b [11:08] * willcooke puts his poking stick away [11:55] Laney, where is the list of packages removed when I select a minimal installation? [11:58] hey jibel [11:58] https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/ubuntu.bionic/desktop.minimal-remove [11:59] Laney, thanks [14:30] #startmeeting Desktop Team Weekly Meeting - 2018-02-27 [14:30] Meeting started Tue Feb 27 14:30:09 2018 UTC.

[14:36] * The first step was to check whether I could assemble an environment [14:36] in a snap where attempts to open arbitrary files would trigger the [14:36] same handler. I managed to get this working by compiling a stub mime [14:37] database so that all files are mapped to the same content type, and [14:37] subsequently trigger the same handler. This should be okay for the [14:37] target snap. [14:37] * I am putting together a snap userd PR to add a second D-Bus API for [14:37] handling local files, using similar checks to xdg-desktop-portal's [14:37] OpenURI.OpenFile() method. [14:37] * Once that is in place, the next step is to patch the core snap to [14:37] make its xdg-open proxy call this method when attempting to open local [14:37] files. This will likely involve replacing the shell script [14:37] implementation with a C program.

CUPS has switched to Apache 2.0 from 2.3.x on, which is incompatible with (L)GPL2-only which some files (the ones inherited from CUPS) of cups-filters use. Mike Sweet (author of CUPS) agreed with switching them to Apache 2.0, but this makes cups-filters incompatible with old CUPS (2.2.x or earlier). Mike is working on a solution on the CUPS side to avoid the need of r [14:44] e-licensing the files in cups-filters. [14:44] - cups: For 18.04 we stay with 2.2.x to avoid license conflicts. Mike Sweet will issue another 2.2.x bug fix release under the old license, backporting bug fixes from 2.3.x. [14:44] - cups-filters: Released 1.20.1 (bug fix release). It is already uploaded to Debian, waiting for sync to Ubuntu. [14:44] - HPLIP: No transition 3.17.10 -> 3.17.11. The new version is too buggy, mainly the packaging of the source tarball. [14:44] - ghostscript, foo2zjs, ippusbxd, rastertosag-gdi: Merged/synced from Debian to Ubuntu to be up-to-date before Feature Freeze. [14:44] - Google Summer of Code 2018: Selected the most urgent projects and assigned them to the few mentors we currently have. Another video interview of students. Mentoring Sahil Arora.

I need his help for the volume-past-100% merging [14:47] thursday [14:47] that's blocking the gnome-shell update? [14:48] Ah, maybe we can talk about distro-patch for fractional too? [14:48] I think we are going to need ffes for gnome-shell and gnome-control-center [14:48] we'll have temporary regressions in gnome-shell & gnome-control-center until didrocks has time to handle that [14:48] jbicha, do you see other ones being late/not ready to land this week? [14:48] well, which means we are not going to land those updates [14:49] it's fine, we can land them next week, should be easy to get a ffe still [14:49] I hadn't started the evolution transition because I was hoping gnome-desktop3 would clear first [14:49] Ah, forgot also to mention in my report that I did a debdiff for fixing [14:49] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fprintd/+bug/1532264 [14:49] Ubuntu bug 1532264 in fprintd (Ubuntu) "fprintd allows unauthorized root access" [High,Confirmed] [14:49] if anyone can sponsor it... [14:50] Trevinho, I'm adding to my backlog, security might want to comment as well [14:50] there is a minimal gnome-settings-daemon transition needed too. I found a gsd bug yesterday LP: #1751956 [14:50] Launchpad bug 1751956 in Ubuntu GNOME "gsd-power 3.27.91 crashed with SIGFPE" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1751956 [14:50] indeed [14:51] jbicha, ideally we would be able to clear the gnome-desktop one in the next days and upload evo before ff [14:51] I don't count on gnome-shell and g-c-c before ff [14:51] it's not realistic [14:51] so let's do a ffe for those next week [14:51] ok [14:51] it lets time to Didier to be back and help with the update [14:51] and talk about Trevinho's scaling work we might want to distro patch [14:51] gnome-calendar 3.27 is blocked on the libdazzle MIR, do you want that synced now anyway or wait? [14:51] please upload [14:52] doko said he wanted them to show on component mismatch [14:52] so let's please him :) [14:52] and that way it's "in" before ff [14:52] Builder might stay at 3.26 (or be a late FF) because the pcre2-revert patch needs to be rebased [14:53] that should be about it for GNOME 3.28 missing pieces [14:53] we can ffe that later, it's an universe package [14:53] k, thanks [14:53] so next topic .. or not [14:53] those patches are the worst [14:53] dunno if we wanted to discuss gstreamer 1.3 [14:53] Laney: what are you thinking with gstreamer 1.4? [14:53] it's in Debian experimental now [14:53] what's the mp3 situation [14:53] ? [14:53] 1.14 [14:53] willcooke, ^ do you have an update? [14:54] Laney, got the provisional +1 this morning, waiting for a final +1 which is due today. Probably wise to wait until tomorrow before we act [14:55] could do then [14:55] good, let's rediscuss it out of the meeting/before acting if needed [14:56] nod [14:56] the third item I had on my AOB list was nautilus-share/gnome-user-share [14:56] that's complicated [14:56] I didn't have much time to look at the status/think about those [14:56] but it sucks to have no working sharing by default [14:56] apparently Ubuntu is unique among GNOME distros for shipping nautilus-share by default? [14:56] could be, I'm not familiar with what others distros do [14:57] MIR needed for gnome-user-share to actually work is blocked by security questions LP: #1731065 [14:57] Launchpad bug 1731065 in mod-dnssd (Ubuntu) "[MIR] mod-dnssd" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1731065 [14:58] mdeslaur also suggested that better "cloud" sharing integration (ala Google Drive or whatever) would be more useful :| [14:58] no easy way out [14:58] I'm not sure we are being able to resolve that in the meeting though [14:58] yeah, I agree [14:59] we should probably keep it as an ongoing discussion, I would like to see that solved in some way [14:59] but busy cycle, still lot to do, etc :/ [14:59] at this point, the gnome-user-share MIR would probably need a FFe [14:59] right, I think anything that isn't clearly defined and ready to land is ffe at this point [15:00] k [15:00] willcooke, I think that was for my items [15:00]
