[07:17] <didrocks> seb128: ça va, un peu la gorge qui gratte, et pas mal le bourdon après avoir vu la 2ème partie de la soirée de la fin de Nolife
[07:17] <didrocks> seb128: toi, encore malade à ce que je vois :/

[07:35] <willcooke> jamesh, please can you email me your weekly update bullets before EOD
[07:35] <jamesh> willcooke: sure
[07:35] <willcooke> alsO; hi!
[07:36] <jamesh> willcooke: btw, I'm giving a talk at tonight's Perth LUG meeting
[07:39] <jamesh> https://www.meetup.com/Perth-Linux-Users-Group-PLUG/events/249443524/ <- about snaps on the desktop
[07:39] <didrocks> hey willcooke
[07:40] <seb128> hey willcooke
[07:42] <willcooke> jamesh, awesome!  /me shares
[07:59] <didrocks> waow, builders are heavily lagging behind…
[07:59] <didrocks> like 59 minutes wait for some arch
[07:59] <didrocks> (transitions ppa, to testbuild symbols file addition with regexp)
[08:03] <Laney> just turned the light off, started walking out of the room to come upstairs
[08:04] <Laney> AND IT TURNED BACK ON

[08:04] <didrocks> tadada
[08:04] <Laney> hi ^_^
[08:09] <seb128> hey Laney!
[08:10] <Laney> hey seb128!
[08:10] <Laney> what up
[08:10] <Laney> sorry about the cold :'(
[08:21] <oSoMoN> good morning desktoppers
[08:22] <willcooke> hi oSoMoN
[08:22] <didrocks> hey oSoMoN
[08:25] <oSoMoN> hey willcooke, didrocks
[08:25] <Laney> hey didrocks oSoMoN willcooke
[08:25] <oSoMoN> hey Laney
[08:25] <Laney> :3
[08:56] <Nafallo> morning :-)
[08:57] <Nafallo> finally got bored of work blocking ssh home and set up bluetooth network sharing on my phone with a specific route on the laptop ;-)
[09:02] <didrocks> https://didrocks.fr/2018/04/10/welcome-to-the-ubuntu-bionic-age-new-wip-ubuntu-theme-as-a-snap/ announced on twitter/G+/hub
[09:04] <oSoMoN> didrocks, cool!
[09:05] <oSoMoN> so we haven't devised a better name than Communitheme yet?
[09:06] <didrocks> oSoMoN: it's still the WIP name, we'll bikeshed on the naming once it will enter the distro
[09:07] <oSoMoN> ack,
[09:07] <oSoMoN> I don't really care about the name myself, I just seem to remember that some people dislike it
[09:08] <didrocks> I guess we just got rule 1: work very hard on something, first feedback is something negative :p
[09:08] <oSoMoN> didrocks, yeah, that's what you get for working in the open…
[09:09] <willcooke> Nafallo, :)) I just moved my SSH server to listen on port 443, that got round their blocking completely
[09:09] <oSoMoN> ricotz, good morning! FYI I did a test build of 6.0.3 in https://launchpad.net/~osomon/+archive/ubuntu/lo-test/+packages and successfully ran autopkgtest, I'll do a round of manual testing and if everything goes well I will request an upload
[09:13] <Nafallo> willcooke: I've got apache on 443 ;-)
[09:15] <ricotz> oSoMoN, hi, great! :)
[09:16] <tjaalton> willcooke: re: the resume issue from yesterday; yes gnome-shell, and the bug seb128 pointed out matches the description, nice to see it's getting some action upstream after three years ;)
[09:17] <seb128> tjaalton, glad that it sounds like your issue and is being worked on!
[09:23]  * oSoMoN reboots to communitheme snap session
[09:24]  * didrocks cross fingers and tells in advance "wfm and works in a VM" :)
[09:25]  * seb128 files the UIFe to make it default, it works, ship it!
[09:26] <didrocks> ahah
[09:26] <seb128> it would also mean free pizzas for me I'm sure, getting Marc_o off fixing the old one :p
[09:26] <oSoMoN> didrocks, it works so far, and it looks pleasant, but gtk2 apps are not themed, known issue?
[09:26] <didrocks> oSoMoN: hum, they should be, missing some recommends?
[09:26] <didrocks> there are 2 recommends on ubuntu-session
[09:26] <didrocks> gnome-themes-extra, gtk2-engines-pixbuf
[09:26] <didrocks> are those installed for you?
[09:27] <oSoMoN> yes, both are installed
[09:27] <didrocks> let me test that in my vm
[09:27] <didrocks> I didn't test explicitely GTK2 apps
[09:27] <oSoMoN> I'm on the stable channel, and I tested xchat and revelation
[09:28]  * didrocks installs xchat
[09:29] <didrocks> yeah, confirming
[09:29] <didrocks> my bet is that the pixbuf theme engine doesn't respect XDG_DATA_DIRS
[09:31] <oSoMoN> oh my, I'm using more gtk2 apps than I thought :)
[09:32] <didrocks> ahah, at least, you recognize them! Patch them all :p
[09:32] <didrocks> so yeah, I need to look into libadwaita and pixbuf engines
[09:32] <didrocks> (anyway, the GTK2 theme is way behind the GTK3 one already)
[09:33] <didrocks> ubuntu-report finally built on all archs! Uploading
[09:40] <didrocks> oSoMoN: bug opened and blog post amended, thanks!
[09:40] <oSoMoN> cool, thanks to you!
[09:41] <oSoMoN> didrocks, can you share the bug link, so I can subscribe to it?
[09:41] <didrocks> oSoMoN: https://github.com/ubuntu/gtk-communitheme/issues/322

[09:42] <didrocks> yw ;)
[09:44] <oSoMoN> didrocks, when the chromium window doesn't have focus, the outline of tabs is very black, that looks a bit too strong to my eye, has this been reported already?
[09:45] <didrocks> oSoMoN: I would look at the gtk project issues. I know this has been discussed many times on the forum, but perhaps a bug report is more appropriate?
[09:46] <oSoMoN> didrocks, ack, will look for an existing report, and if I can't find one I'll file it
[10:45] <LocutusOfBorg> hello, do we want a glib2 update? <-- Laney
[10:46] <Laney> LocutusOfBorg: Please do not merge that upload in unstable, we need to fix it, it's in hand
[10:50] <LocutusOfBorg> thanks, I see a lot of triggers stuff on git
[10:51] <LocutusOfBorg> in case, can you please steal the merge? :p
[10:51] <Laney> I know about it, don't worry
[10:51] <LocutusOfBorg> I don't want to have desktop stuff with my name on MoM
[10:51] <LocutusOfBorg> :)
[11:25] <Laney> that was intentse
[11:25] <Laney> intense
[11:25] <Laney> got the volume-key testcase to pass 😅
[11:27] <jbicha> thank you!
[11:28] <Laney> not actually sure how/where to put that though
[11:29] <oSoMoN> didrocks, LO snap is looking psychedelic with communitheme: https://imgur.com/a/qCFuB
[11:45] <Laney> willcooke: don't suppose you know if nhaines is going to deliver the wallpapers to a bug or something?
[11:49] <oSoMoN> kenvandine, seb128: I prepared a LO 6.0.3 upload at https://people.canonical.com/~osomon/libreoffice-6.0.3/, can one of you please upload it?
[11:49] <willcooke> Laney, yeah I spoke to him yesterday over email, he's going to try and get it done this week.  I have the links to the images though, so is there something I can do to get started?
[11:50] <Laney> willcooke: A zip file of properly resized images is what I usually get
[11:51] <Laney> probably quite tedious to gather that, so maybe leave it to him :P
[11:54] <willcooke> Laney, what's properly resized?  16:9 with a min resoluton?
[11:54] <willcooke> oh, lemme look at the existing ones, I can probably work that out
[11:56] <jbicha> mpt: ping
[11:57] <Laney> willcooke: 3240x2160 mostly, although some are a bit different
[11:57] <Laney> so I don't think he actually adjust the images if the ratio isn't right
[11:57] <Laney> they are all x2160
[11:58] <willcooke> ack thx
[11:58] <willcooke> I've downloaded them all now, so I will resize and CRUUUUUSH
[11:58] <Laney> |M|
[11:59] <Laney> oh the file name format is Image_Title_by_Image_Author.jpg
[12:00] <willcooke> bah, the file he's sent me isn't the pictures at all
[12:01] <Laney> rickroll'd
[12:01] <Laney> he posted the list on planet
[12:02] <seb128> oSoMoN, I can have a look in a bit
[12:03] <seb128> jbicha, you might want to include context in a ping to m_pt if you want a reply
[12:03] <jbicha> I'm trying to follow up on my question from yesterday about gnome-initial-setup design: who and where to discuss some issues
[12:04] <seb128> willcooke can perhaps help you?
[12:04] <jbicha> um ok
[12:05] <seb128> we have a launchpad bug reports, comments on the google doc, bugs on the design team github project
[12:06] <seb128> unsure what's the right way/person for that one though
[12:06] <seb128> jbicha, maybe you could share the questions/feedback on the channel to start?
[12:06] <jbicha> I opened bug reports but need to discuss them
[12:07] <jbicha> ok, let's start with bug 1762192
[12:07] <ubot5`> bug 1762192 in gnome-initial-setup (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu Welcome could offer to set up Online Accounts" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1762192
[12:08] <seb128> Agreed that would be an useful feature but that's for next cycle at this point
[12:08] <seb128> (or .1 if we want to be agressive in improving the user experience there and we think that's one of those cases)
[12:08] <willcooke> jbicha, that bug, point #1: Design have agreed to let us lay it out the way that upstream design works, and they will review it later.
[12:09] <jbicha> I should have mentioned on that bug report bug 1762195 as justification for that change
[12:09] <ubot5`> bug 1762195 in gnome-initial-setup (Ubuntu) "Welcome to Ubuntu doesn't make as much sense if user isn't admin" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1762195
[12:09] <willcooke> @ connecting online accounts - yes, but not this cycle.
[12:09] <ubot5-ng> willcooke: Error: "connecting" is not a valid command.
[12:10] <jbicha> I think Design only expected the wizard to show for the first issue, but that's now how gnome-intial-setup was designed upstream and currently works
[12:10] <jbicha> *show for the first user
[12:11] <jbicha> I'll just go ahead and post my other bug numbers here
[12:11] <seb128> jbicha, well, the installer always create an admin user so in practice that's not an issue for the first user, and I think ubuntu-welcome only makes sense for that one user, at least in its current version
[12:11] <seb128> so it's basically a non issue this cycle?
[12:11] <jbicha> well then we need to modify gnome-initial-setup if that's what we want to do
[12:11] <jbicha> it is definitely an issue :)
[12:11] <seb128> to just act once for the first user?
[12:12] <jbicha> yes
[12:12] <seb128> wfm
[12:12] <jbicha> some of my bugs just need clarification about what it is we want to do, so we can then try to fix them
[12:12] <jbicha> for instance, bug 1762199
[12:12] <ubot5`> bug 1762199 in gnome-initial-setup (Ubuntu) "Help improve Ubuntu suggests Settings > Privacy > Diagnostics but that page doesn't exist" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1762199
[12:13] <willcooke> that one's just a bug, Robett has commented, so is aware
[12:13] <seb128> well, the intend is to point to the privacy panel which should have a matching control
[12:13] <seb128> engineering work is still needed
[12:14] <jbicha> will the control be renamed to Diagnostics or will it reuse Problem Reporting (or will there be both controls in Privacy)?
[12:15] <seb128> I don't think it's likely to be implemented for release at this point
[12:15] <seb128> we should probably just update the screen to not have that mention
[12:15] <seb128> also the only thing we connected to feedback atm is the one shot reporting of installer/systems datas
[12:16] <jbicha> my initial proposal was to include both strings so that translations would be good whichever way we went
[12:20] <jbicha> bug 1762287 is complex but "interesting"
[12:20] <ubot5`> bug 1762287 in gnome-initial-setup (Ubuntu) "Offer Ubuntu customizations in new user mode too" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1762287
[12:20] <seb128> jbicha, the concept of "send occasional info" and the reference to settings in any form doesn't make sense atm
[12:20] <seb128> since we only implement a one shot send for one user
[12:21] <jbicha> that's not hooked up with whoopsie?
[12:22] <seb128> I didn't look at the code from Robert but my understanding was that it's not at this point
[12:23] <jbicha> ok so we could include both strings but don't show either in the UI
[12:24] <seb128> wfm
[12:24] <jbicha> and we could have two strings, one with "occasional" and switch to the non-occasional one now
[12:25] <seb128> right
[12:25] <jbicha> "Yes, send system info to Canonical"
[12:25] <seb128> "new user mode" is also an interesting problem
[12:25] <seb128> most of the things you raise are extra feature or extra use of the feature/use in other contextes
[12:25] <seb128> e.g feature work for next cycle
[12:26] <seb128> now is probably not the right time for us to think too much about that and I expect the same is true for design
[12:26] <willcooke> Laney, now I've got the right file :)
[12:26] <jbicha> sure, it might be backportable to like 18.04.1 or .2
[12:26] <seb128> right
[12:27] <jbicha> it's not really a priority since our installer doesn't work like that anyway :)
[12:27] <seb128> but I think the limiting point is engineering work
[12:27] <seb128> not design
[12:27] <seb128> like their design make sense, we just didn't plug in enough of the backends to match the design
[12:34] <jbicha> willcooke: btw, upstream tried making smaller vp9 videos for "most locales" but the tarball size didn't change much
[12:34] <jbicha> https://download.gnome.org/sources/gnome-getting-started-docs/3.28/
[12:35] <seb128> :/
[12:36] <jbicha> oh there were some new translations I guess
[12:37] <jbicha> like French went from 98 KB to 9.5 MB https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-getting-started-docs/3.28.0-0ubuntu1/+build/14466567
[12:37] <jbicha> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-getting-started-docs/3.28.1-0ubuntu1/+build/14744624
[12:39] <jbicha> hmm, strange all the langs in the older one had small sizes
[12:41] <seb128> they just didn't have translated videos
[12:41] <seb128> so symlinks to the english one

[13:36] <willcooke> * Gnome Shell memory usage:
[13:36] <willcooke>   - BIG NEWS: The main leak in gnome-shell (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1672297) has a fix coming upstream, surprisingly in GJS. So even perfectly written JS and GObject code in gnome-shell was still leaking, thanks to GJS (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/merge_requests/114). We'll definitely grab that as soon as something lands.
[13:36] <willcooke>   - Massive texture leak from last week; seems to have vanished after Easter!? (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/160) Although I would expect the GJS fix to probably resolve it, based on where I got up to.
[13:36] <ubot5`> Ubuntu bug 1672297 in gjs (Ubuntu Bionic) "gnome-shell uses lots of memory, and grows over time" [High,Triaged]
[13:36] <willcooke> * Gnome Shell performance fixes:
[13:36] <ubot5-ng> GNOME bug (Merge request) 114 in gjs "WIP: Queue a GC when a toggle reference goes from >1 to 1" (comments: 7) [Opened]
[13:36] <willcooke>   - Made another serious attempt at reducing gnome-shell's CPU requirement. Click through for some exciting numbers: (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/73)
[13:36] <ubot5-ng> GNOME bug 160 in gnome-shell "st_widget_paint_background leaks about 5MB of textures every time I open/close the activities overview" (comments: 7) [Closed]
[13:36] <ubot5`> Error: Gnome bug 160 could not be found
[13:36] <ubot5-ng> GNOME bug (Merge request) 73 in gnome-shell "js/ui: Choose some actors to cache on the GPU" (comments: 0) [Opened]
[13:36] <willcooke>   - Clutter master clock fix to improve smoothness and increase frame rates (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/70): Upstream finally woke up and started commenting on the previous version. But after I implemented the trivial docs change they requested, found another bug. So then spent a day redesigning the algorithm.
[13:36] <ubot5-ng> GNOME bug (Merge request) 70 in mutter "clutter: Smooth out master clock to smooth visuals" (comments: 0) [Opened]
[13:36] <willcooke>   - Relevant note from last week: My first improvement to Wayland graphics performance is due for imminent release with mutter 3.28.1 this week.
[13:36] <willcooke> * Bluetooth:
[13:36] <willcooke>   - The main complaint this week turned out to be a non-bug. Users often mistake benign log messages for being related to other problems they experience. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754836)
[13:36] <ubot5`> Ubuntu bug 1749546 in Fontconfig "duplicate for #1754836 Booting a live session is slow - fontconfig regenerates its font cache" [Medium,Confirmed]
[13:36] <willcooke> * Libinput:
[13:36] <willcooke>   - More time spent hardware testing and updating bugs.
[13:36] <willcooke>   - NEWS: v1.10.4 has been tagged upstream, with a good improvement in responsiveness for many touchpads (because I kept reporting bugs upstream and identified what needed backporting). IMHO though it's still only half as good as what's in master (future v1.11).
[13:37] <willcooke> * Daily bug management across gnome-shell, mutter, gdm3, ubuntu-themes, bluez, pulseaudio, dkms, wayland, totem, mpv, libinput.

[14:02] <willcooke> jibel,  you tagged that one, is it happening a lot?
[14:02] <seb128> willcooke, kenvandine, jibel, that's probably that snapd-glib issue...
[14:02] <willcooke> just thinking that
[14:02] <andyrock> indeed
[14:02] <willcooke> I'll assign to Robert then
[14:02] <jibel> willcooke, yes it is
[14:02] <seb128> same difference :p
[14:02] <willcooke> or should we mark as dupe?
[14:02] <seb128> he's going to ignore it!
[14:02] <jibel> willcooke, but it also shows the typical "Too mayn open files" signature
[14:03] <seb128> willcooke, assign, Robert can mark as dup if he thinks that's one

[14:04] <seb128> looks like it
[14:04] <andyrock> when g_main_context_new is involved in the stacktrace it's likely the same problem

[14:06] <seb128> that one again?
[14:06] <jibel> it happens very frequently when I unlock the screen
[14:06] <willcooke> Looks like Daniel is looking at it?
[14:06] <jibel> UI is frozen until gnome-shell restarts
[14:07] <seb128> did you manage to get a backtrace from xwayland?
[14:07] <jibel> no
[14:07] <seb128> :(
[14:08] <seb128> that bug is basically useless without somebody who can reproduce and get one
[14:08] <jibel> each time it's gnome-shell crashing and I didn't find a way to reproduce it intentionally
[14:08] <seb128> let's talk getting one after the meeting
[14:08] <willcooke> kk
[14:08] <Laney> nominate or not?
[14:08] <willcooke> jibel, you want to take that one with a goal of getting a BT?
[14:08] <seb128> I don't have an opinion on this one at this point
[14:08] <willcooke> I think we should
[14:09] <jibel> we can nominate but without a reproducer there is very little chance to fix it

[14:11] <seb128> that's still sort of MIR stucked
[14:11] <jbicha> jibel, if you need mdraid you need to get the MIRs filed for it
[14:11] <seb128> MIR team did bounced a bit back on the failing tests as I was expecting
[14:11] <seb128> and Laney is looking at those it seems
[14:11] <Laney> only for volume-key
[14:11] <Laney> That's one which is probably in our control
[14:11] <seb128> skip again and see where we stand next week?
[14:11] <Laney> for the others, not really
[14:11] <Laney> it's been skipped for weeks and weeks
[14:12] <Laney> either it's a release blocker and we should work on it, and liaise with other teams
[14:12] <seb128> what do you suggest doing with it?
[14:12] <Laney> or it's not
[14:12] <Laney> first step is on our team to file the MIRs
[14:12] <seb128> willcooke, jibel, how important are incrypted keys?
[14:12] <seb128> encrypted
[14:12] <willcooke> I think it should be worked on
[14:12] <jibel> the main problem is more crypto2 than mdraid for people upgrading to bionic
[14:12] <willcooke> like laney said, lets at least get MIRs done
[14:13] <seb128> well MIR is inprocess with Laney looking at the test
[14:13] <Laney> that's for one half of it
[14:13] <Laney> not the mdraid bit
[14:13] <Laney> that bug title specifies both
[14:13] <seb128> do we need mdraid?
[14:13] <seb128> I don't know enough about those techs to have an opinion on how required they are
[14:13] <jibel> I've seen only one report from someone with kubuntu who faced the mdraid issue.
[14:14] <seb128> well our bionic tester userbase is small
[14:14] <jibel> other than a this poor experience I don't have an opinion
[14:14] <jibel> yup
[14:14] <seb128> it's more a question of how used/useful is mdraid for mainstream Ubuntu
[14:14] <seb128> willcooke, ^ opinion ?
[14:14] <jbicha> personally, I'm ok with it being a suggests, main promotion can be easily backported to bionic once approved, right?
[14:15] <seb128> yes
[14:15] <seb128> so retitling/purposing that bug for -crypto?
[14:15] <Laney> we have the MIR for that
[14:15] <seb128> which is being handling through the volume-key/MIR
[14:16] <Laney> you can target that one if you like
[14:16] <seb128> so you would mark it dup of the MIR?
[14:16] <seb128> and target the MIR?
[14:16] <seb128> wfm
[14:16] <seb128> willcooke, ^
[14:16] <willcooke> can someone target the MIR then and I will untag that bug
[14:16] <willcooke> (is that right?)
[14:18] <willcooke> seb128, ? ^ Is that right?
[14:18] <Laney> if it's only libbytesize blocking that might be an easy MIR not requiring a security review btw
[14:18] <Laney> https://github.com/storaged-project/libbytesize/blob/master/src/bs_size.h
[14:19] <Laney> it could be notfixing
[14:19] <seb128> willcooke, I'm a bit lost at this point
[14:19] <seb128> seems more complicated that it should be :/
[14:19] <Laney> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/volume-key/+bug/1754422 is targeted now
[14:19] <ubot5`> Ubuntu bug 1754422 in volume-key (Ubuntu Bionic) "[MIR] volume-key" [Undecided,In progress]
[14:19] <seb128> we need the volume-key MIR approved, which needs tests fixed it seems
[14:19] <Laney> that should get the luks bit
[14:19] <seb128> then we can promote crypto
[14:20] <seb128> then we need to decide what we think about mdraid
[14:21] <seb128> willcooke, Laney suggested notfixing the other one, wfm
[14:21] <willcooke> other one = #1757321 ?
[14:21] <jbicha> in Debian, mdraid also wants thin-provisioning-tools (so a second MIR)
[14:21] <seb128> willcooke, yes
[14:22] <Nafallo> encrypted usb keys is definately something I'll use.

[14:24] <willcooke> That's the intended action and I've spoken to various people about it and that's the way its going to work.  So I need to untag it
[14:24] <jbicha> willcooke: just wontfix it then?
[14:24] <didrocks> willcooke: I guess Laney/Robert wanted to get a better design being more explicit
[14:24] <seb128> with a comment stating that
[14:24] <willcooke> will do that in a mo
[14:24] <Laney> I don't think "No, don't send any info" is acceptable in that case
[14:25] <Laney> but notfixing is the right tag I guess, and even close the bug if it's not going to get any fix at all

[14:25] <willcooke> I tagged that one, seems important that people can find it
[14:25] <willcooke> but now I think about it, it's already installed, so probably not a rls bug
[14:25] <willcooke> anyone disagree?
[14:26] <Laney> no
[14:26] <jbicha> willcooke: who owns firefox and thunderbird?
[14:26] <jbicha> thunderbird isn't pre-installed for the minimal Ubuntu install
[14:26] <willcooke> Chris Coulson is the maintainer of ffox, and I /think/ thunderbird
[14:26] <seb128> he is

[14:27] <jbicha> U Budgie notably installs Chromium instead of Firefox, but Firefox is so popular I'd like to see that issue fixed for them
[14:28] <seb128> the snap is listed right? ;)
[14:28] <Laney> jbicha: it's notfixing for the desktop team as a release tracking bug IMHO
[14:28] <jbicha> I nominated this extended characters bug after getting no attention upstream.
[14:28] <Laney> you can still fix it
[14:28] <jbicha> Laney: ok
[14:28] <seb128> +1
[14:28] <seb128> did you try to nag them on #gnome-shell?
[14:29] <jbicha> I guess I'm hesitant to do Mozilla releases since that's a good way to get stuck being the new maintainer!
[14:29] <Laney> the mozilla one, not this current one (although that might be too)
[14:29] <seb128> ask carlosg if he needs more info

[14:30] <jbicha> I don't think I can fix the osk bug, but if you just want someone to talk to GNOME about it, I guess you can assign me

[14:38] <Nafallo> seb128: thanks.
[14:38] <jbicha> seb128: I mean I guess you could have a casper hack so that xterm is installed in the live environment but with .desktop's set to NoDisplay
[14:38] <Nafallo> confirmed working
[14:38] <seb128> Nafallo, great!
[14:39] <jbicha> xterm was also a pain to get off our iso because of virtual dependency issues with germinate
[14:39] <jibel> cyphermox, hey, could you do a release of Ubiquity? it adds ttys back in only-ubiquity and maybe-ubiquity modes and helps with debugging.
[14:42] <seb128> yeah! found my way out
[14:43] <seb128> click on release-note in ubiquity
[14:43] <seb128> get a browser
[14:43] <seb128> got download the xterm deb
[14:43] <seb128> open in gnome-software
[14:43] <seb128> install
[14:43] <jibel> lol
[14:43] <seb128> I've my comment line
[14:43] <seb128> screw you GNOME and your dbus activation :p
[14:43] <jbicha> 😸
[14:45]  * mgedmin used to like the features enabled by a single gnome-terminal-server process, namely the ability to drag and drop tabs between arbitrary terminal windows
[14:46]  * mgedmin was sad when that feature started segfaulting and eventually got disabled
[14:52] <cyphermox> jibel: sure
[15:03] <jibel> cyphermox, thanks
[15:05] <doko>  oSoMoN, seb128: I assume there is a FFe for LO?
[15:14] <jbicha> doko: why? it's just LO 6.0.2 →  6.0.3
[15:19] <jbicha> seb128: I'm curious, were you still thinking about cherry-picking the Settings > Thunderbolt panel to bionic? (not been merged into GNOME yet)

[15:29] <Laney> jbicha: I don't see thin-provisioning-tools on mdadm in Debian https://salsa.debian.org/utopia-team/libblockdev/blob/debian/sid/debian/control btw
[15:29] <Laney> or what were you referring to?
[15:35] <jbicha> Laney: you're right, it's libblockdev-lvm2 that wants thin-provisioning-tools but we still might want that since we use lvm for full-disk encryption
[15:36] <Laney> it's all separate issues though
[15:39] <jbicha> yes, I guess the main driver for -crypto (volume-key) is USB sticks. I guess we need both -crypto and -lvm2 to manage our full-disk-encryption partitions
[15:39] <jbicha> I'm not really working on these other MIRs
[15:41] <Laney> I'm just going to add a trello card, it can be backlogged if appropriate
[15:41] <Trevinho> hello
[15:42] <jbicha> thanks
[15:42] <jbicha> good morning
[15:45] <Laney> hey Trevinho!!!!!
[15:48] <Trevinho> seb128, willcooke: sorry for forgetting again a proper status update on rls bugs (I also forgot to mention themes reviews and few other things), but as said I'm reworking the nautilus patch as that is also needed before release (as per upstream request). Others are due these week too.
[15:48] <Trevinho> hey Laney !!!!
[15:54] <Laney> Trevinho: you good?
[16:00] <tintou> I don't know where to put this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/langpack-o-matic/+bug/1762435

[16:17] <seb128> Trevinho, hey, no worry, you do better with the status update next week then right? ;)
[16:20] <seb128> doko, bug fix updates don't need a ffe, that's for feature updates by definition
[16:22] <seb128> jbicha, I'm talking to gicmo regularly, we agreed that it was late to have that in bionic, I would rather target .1
[16:23] <jbicha> ok
[16:24] <seb128> tintou, hey, seems like that got reassigned on the right project, it might have been one of those component which was disabled by error (https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-translators/2018-April/007473.html) and fixed in the next langpack export
[16:24] <seb128> tintou, I'm going to keep an eye on it, thanks for reporting
[16:24] <tintou> thank you :)
[16:24] <seb128> np!
[16:27] <Laney> tkamppeter: hi, would you be able to take a look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pstotext/+bug/1762778 please? It's a regression after your ghostscript update that is breaking some tests, not to mention pstotext.

[16:29] <Laney> looking at postscript is reminding me of an undergraduate module that I did where we had to write it by hand
[16:30] <doko> heh, once I wrote postscript by hand as well

[16:44] <Laney> board game generator?
[16:44] <Laney> looks fun
[16:47] <doko> yes, play board games by pbm. apparently people are still using it.  I can bring the board game for the next sprint, but playing takes some hours ...
[16:49] <Laney> :D
[16:49]  * Laney is up for hours long board games
[16:49] <Laney> we have a couple but it's rare that people want to play them with us :P
[19:01] <jbicha> ximion: I want to add a compulsory_for_desktop tag for both GNOME and MATE, but I don't see any examples of that being done in the archive
[19:01] <jbicha> it's interesting that https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-CollectionData.html suggests using the tag multiple times
[19:02] <jbicha> but https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/blob/master/plugins/core/gs-appstream.c#L724 suggests using one tag with something like GNOME:MATE
[19:03] <jbicha> if you wanted context, the specific use case is software-properties-gtk in Ubuntu which is a depends of both the Ubuntu and Ubuntu MATE metapackages
[19:04] <ximion> jbicha: I am not 100% sure if I understand the question right...
[19:04] <jbicha> so we don't want someone unknowingly removing that critical metapackage in GNOME Software
[19:04] <ximion> that comment in GNOME Software's source code is pretty explicit on what needs to be done and how
[19:04] <ximion> jup, add one or multiple compulsory_for_desktop tags to the metainfo files of the respective apps
[19:05] <jbicha> ok, I'll try with multiple tags since that looks a bit nicer to me :)
[19:06] <ximion> yes, you have to add multiple tags, anything else is not valid by the spec
[19:07] <jbicha> ok, I see, the comment wording was confusing to me
[19:08] <ximion> the colon notation is only to be used for the special case where one desktop environment has multiple shells, like "GNOME-Classic:GNOME" and you explicitly only want to make the app compulsory when the particular shell is running, and not in any flavor of the GNOME desktop
[19:08] <jbicha> yes, that makes sense. I just wasn't reading very well
[19:08] <ximion> the usual case that you want is just to add two compulsory_for_desktop tags, one with GNOME and one with MATE as value
[19:09] <ximion> I guessed something like that - it is really hard for me to read texts about something I know stuff about the same way as someone who is reading it for the first time
[19:10] <ximion> if you have some spare time, please improve the spec or comment texts to something that you feel makes more sense
[19:11] <jbicha> I think it was my fault for reading the comment (and I found the comment with codesearch.debian.net). If I had just read the spec, I would have been fine
[19:30] <Trevinho> jbicha: as for bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-builder/+bug/1758712 feel free to submit patch upstream, not an ubuntu theme bug.
