Unit193I PPA'd a thing.02:15
-SwissBot:#xubuntu-devel- ::xubuntu-default-settings:: [trunk] r674 Launchpad automatic translations update. (by Launchpad Translations on behalf of xubuntu-dev)05:27
Unit193Sooo...05:28
Unit193bluesabre: Which PPAs plan to support all of Bionic's lifecycle?05:31
flocculantUnit193: yea - asking about core06:08
Unit193"It contains only the latest and greatest virii"06:09
flocculant:P06:10
flocculantI didn't think it had gnome software06:10
Unit193I, err, might heavily object to that, yes.06:11
flocculant:D06:11
Unit193It mainly has numlockx so you won't kill me. :306:11
Unit193(Nah, underlaying stuff like that would be a bear to track down, only makes sense to seed.)06:12
flocculant:)06:12
Unit193So, would you heavily object if I asked about linking Core at the bottom of the least read release announcements/notes?06:13
flocculantUnit193: nope - I'd not object to you asking about that, nor would I object to doing it :p06:15
Unit193I entirely understand if the release people don't approve, tis fine.06:16
flocculanton the techy one? https://wiki.xubuntu.org/releases/18.04/release-notes06:16
flocculantassuming you've got access - add it there yourself - beforre Changelogs I think would be best06:16
Unit193I think I do, also changelogs for xubuntu-(core,desktop,wallpapers) are for the binary packages, not sources, thus 404.06:23
flocculantcan you edit those at the same time then please :p06:23
Unit193Yeah.06:23
flocculantcheers - someone mentioned that a short while ago - and I forgot to do anything about it 06:23
flocculantUnit193: you realise that once 18.04 releases I'll copy that note to 18.10 - so anything you add will be there as well? 06:26
flocculantdon't suppose that's an issue though until it's finally official ...06:26
flocculant...06:26
Unit193Don't think I see any problem.06:44
flocculantUnit193: I'll leave it to you then - if you've not got access - get it :D06:49
flocculantor pm me what you want to say there06:49

bluesabreIt should also be noted that this is only for support in GTK+ 3 applications. QT doesn't support it, Firefox ships their own support, and Chromium does it's own thing.10:28
knomepersonally i don't think we need to ship any emoji...10:38
knomethat said, i guess if you want stuff like emoji, color is what you'd likely prefer10:44
knomewhether those fit into the xubuntu looks... dunno10:44
akxwi-davehmm.. prefer the colour ones personally.. but very rarely use emojis  😺 🤭  😃 ⛷️🏍️🍗🥠🍧🌑📈📉🖇️📭🆗12:38
slickymasterWorkmy I'm with knome, personally I don't see the need in shipping emojis but if we do, then I'd go with the colour ones12:43
donofrio_how do I fix this https://pastebin.com/PqZ7mEBR15:17
flocculantbluesabre: I'm +1 to the majority - if there's no majority - I'm +1 what the dev team decide :p17:44
flocculantali1234: did that - pretty sure you could have too19:00
ali1234flocculant: i'm not actually sure where the blueprint is. i only know that bug was on it cos of the little icon next to my list of bugs...19:03
flocculantali1234: ok :)19:08
flocculantftr you cand get to the blueprints from dev.xubuntu.org19:09
pleia2color emoji!19:38
Unit193I'm the only one that'd prefer symbola?  We ship a lot of GTK2, and as stated the color option isn't supported in Qt.19:51
pleia2yes19:54
pleia2what happens in GTK2 apps when it "isn't supported"?19:55
Unit193I presume it shows the typical 򒎃19:58
pleia2that won't do :(19:58
pleia2I'd rather have them render B&W everywhere than broken in half the places19:58
Unit193I don't know for sure, I have symbola.19:59
ochosimeh, did i miss anything?20:23
Unit193Since you disconnected or when?20:24
ochosiyeah20:30
ochosistupid bouncer randomly reboots and doesn't reconnect irssi :/20:30
Unit193I'm fairly confused, I'm pretty sure I recently tried this but dropbox indicator works in sn-plug.21:35
Unit193I'm wondering if a dropbox update in the meantime finally fixed it?21:37
* Unit193 shrugs.21:37
ochosii'd say if it works now there21:46
ochosi's less to worry about21:46
ochosiUnit193: any idea when/where/how the icon cache for elementary-xfce is created?21:47
ochosithe -darkest variant doesn#t seem to have one for some reason21:47
ochosii thought it happens in the xubuntu-artwork package, but seemingly not21:47
ochosi(or i overlooked it)21:47
Unit193if which update-icon-caches >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then21:48
Unit193update-icon-caches /usr/share/icons/elementary-xfce /usr/share/icons/elementary-xfce-dark /usr/share/icons/elementary-xfce-darker21:48
Unit193fi21:48
Unit193ochosi: -darkest is just a symlink to -darker.21:54
ali1234it isn't... it contains symlinks, but it is a real directory and needs its own icon cache22:01
ochosibut the appearance dialog shows the corresponding warning22:01
ochosiali1234: thanks for reporting that bug, i had forgotten about it again...22:01
Unit193                                $needs_cache = 1 if -f and (/\.png$/ or /\.svg$/ or /\.xpm$/ or /\.icon$/);22:11
ochosiUnit193: right, so what do you suggest? just ignore the complaint of appearance settings and say it's expected?22:28
Unit193ochosi: I simply answered as to "why" it was happening.22:28
ochosisry, my question wasn't ironic22:33
ochosijust wondering how to best fix this or if at all22:33
ochosibut currently still working on a greybird fix, so i'm happy if you'll take a look22:34
Unit193Just making it clear I'm not saying we shouldn't, just "why" it's happening.  One could simply add a rule like the above for darkest?22:35
ali1234what does that do? search for those file types?22:36
ali1234if so that's the problem. darkest doesn't contain any... it symlinks them. but it is still expected to have a cache22:36
Unit193dh_icons is what generates the update-icon-caches command from above, that is the search method it uses.22:36
Unit193I'd argue it should also look for index.theme.22:37
ali1234right22:37
ali1234really why search at all?22:37
ochosiUnit193: i'd tend to agree: if searching at all, it should also search for index.theme22:38
ali1234what are darker and darkest for anyway?22:42
ochosidistinguishes between panel and toolbar stuff22:44
ochosiso darker is bright icons for a dark panel and dark icons for the toolbar22:44
ochosiand darkest is dark monochrome icons for panel and toolbar22:45
ochosiall of that is completely superfluous with symbolic icons and gtk322:45
ochosiso as soon as panel, thunar etc. are used in their gtk3 versions, we can get rid of all of that22:46
bluesabrere: emoji fonts, pretty sure the color emoji can only be rendered in gtk3, they'll be b&w everywhere else22:48
bluesabreI don't mind the b&w, but thought it was fair to ask22:49
ochosibluesabre: heya! i need your package update magic before UIF22:50
ochosiwhat's my deadline?22:50
ochosii just pushed a boatload of updates to elementary-xfce, so that's pretty much ready to ship22:51
bluesabreochosi: UIF is tomorrow :D22:51
ochosibut in greybird from git master there is a tiny regression currently (only certain rare gtk2 widgets affected), unfortunately it seems hard to fix, but then again it would probably be bugfix anyway, no?22:51
bluesabreochosi: if elementary-xfce is ready, I'll confirm the dangling icons are not present22:52
bluesabreochosi: yes, bugfix22:52
ochosik22:52
ochosiso i'll do a release of greybird and we'll see if i get to a bugfix before final freeze22:52
bluesabreI have something else for you with Greybird, in Chrome with GTK theme, the window controls are rendered 2x and blurry22:52
ochosiand for elementary-xfce i'll do a release now22:52
bluesabreochosi: waaaaait22:52
ochosiand we can also pull them into xubuntu-artwork22:52
bluesabreone sec :)22:52
ochosihehe22:52
ochosii recently fixed some chrome rendering issues though with greybird, maybe different ones22:53
ochosican check22:53
ochosiwhat version?22:53
ochosii have 64.022:53
ochosiand the window controls with gtk look ok22:53
ochosibut i also don't have hidpi22:54
ochosiif that's what you're asking22:54
bluesabrethe version I have at work... might be old :)22:54
ochosihehe22:54
ochosianyway, that's another bugfix imho22:54
bluesabreagreed22:55
bluesabreand not seeing it now22:55
bluesabreso maybe just fixed recently22:55
ochosiwhat's only half-ready in greybird currently (and what i'm not going to finish for 18.04 probably) is the hidpi support for CSD22:55
bluesabrethat's fair22:55
ochosibut as xfwm4 also doesn't have a hidpi theme yet, it's probably not a huge problem22:55
ochosii'd love to add it, but i still lack some icons (the basic ones are there though)22:55
ochosiand knome is slacking... :D22:56
bluesabre1 sec might be more, lp:xubuntu-artwork is a behemoth22:56
ochosihehe, i know22:56
ochosii also added almost 1000 icon changes in the last days22:56
ochosidrawing and scaling lots of crap22:56
ochosito be able to pull in all the upstream goodness22:56
bluesabrereally did the cleaner emblems that landed sometime recently22:57
bluesabre*dig22:57
ochosiwhich ones? the colored circles?22:57
bluesabreoh22:57
bluesabrethat was a different theme22:58
bluesabresorry for my infidelity22:58
ochosicurrently we don't really have that many emblems22:58
ochosi:o22:58
ochosi:D22:58
ochosiit's ok, i'm sure you also switched to arc already ;)22:58
ochosi(or whatever is hip these days)22:58

bluesabrejust the most compatible with everything22:59
ochosi\o/22:59
ochosiis those all dangling symlinks?22:59
ochosii can quickly fix those..22:59
bluesabreseemingly22:59
bluesabreonce those are fixed, we should be in good shape23:00
bluesabreready for both releases :)23:00
bluesabregoing to get ice cream, bbiab23:00

bluesabretesting again23:01
bluesabregood to go23:01

ochosii'll tag both releases then23:02
bluesabrethx23:02
ochosithanks for doing the last-minute upload23:02
bluesabreit's my speciality23:02
bluesabrebeen doing it for years now23:02
ochosi:D23:02
ochosiit's gonna be a pretty awesome release actually23:03
ochosimuch more goodness all over the place than expected23:03
bluesabredefinitely23:03
Unit193bluesabre: Looks like the b/w versions are basically fallback, and incomplete in my testing.23:06
Unit193And yeah, really don't work so well in Qt, so I'd be in favor of symbola.23:06

bluesabreUnit193: nice23:47
Unit193May I presume that you don't plan to migrate any of the packages to git?23:48
bluesabrenot currently planning on git migrations, maybe before 18.04 release though23:48
Unit193(Meant pkg-xfce svn/git.)23:49
bluesabreprobably not23:49
bluesabreyou should see the messes I'm making in PAPT land23:50
Unit193There's a nice migration script at least!  But yeeah, I don't want to push any either. :323:50
