[13:47] Minutes: http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-desktop/2018/ubuntu-desktop.2018-05-08-13.30.moin.txt [13:47] thanks everyone [13:47] thanks [13:48] that was 9 ;-) [13:48] Nafallo, I was working on something more important at the time.... why can't I get colour emoji in Characters? [13:48] willcooke: *grin* [13:49] ubot5-ng: wb :-) [13:49] willcooke: do you have fonts-noto-color-emoji installed? are you on bionic? [13:49] Nafallo: Error: "wb" is not a valid command. [13:50] ubot5-ng: invalid [13:50] jbicha: Error: "invalid" is not a valid command. [13:50] hrm. I think it needs that elisa plugin ;-) [13:51] eliza maybe? [13:51] jbicha, yes and yes. If I right click I can insert them, but Character Map doesn't sow them [13:51] show [13:51] that's the old thing [13:52] just realised that, so I manually installed the snap [13:52] kenvandine, expected? ^ [13:52] that we didn't install it on upgrades? [13:52] that was a decision [13:52] willcooke: maybe you're using the edge channel snap or something? snap info gnome-characters [13:52] ahhhh, right [13:53] oh you're talking about gucharmap? that doesn't support color emoji at all, you need gnome-characters [13:53] indeed [13:56] kenvandine, have you seen my last comment on https://github.com/ibus/ibus/issues/1996 ? not sure whether adding your github handle in a comment resulted in a notification [13:56] ibus bug 1996 in ibus "ibus_bus_init does an unconditional call to chmod on $HOME/.config/ibus/bus" (comments: 5) [Closed] [13:56] bug 1996 in Launchpad itself ""Upload" link is missing for individual po files" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1996 [13:56] oSoMoN, i saw the notification but was busy [13:56] let me look now [13:57] kenvandine, no urgency, just a snap that needs rebuilding to pick up a fix in libibus [13:57] but the warning is harmless, so very low priority [13:59] oSoMoN, gnome-logs was rebuilt recently [13:59] i wonder if we have a version of ibus in the backports ppa that doesn't have the fix [14:00] ah, I haven't checked that [14:00] 1.5.14-2ubuntu1 [14:01] oSoMoN, can you upload that same patch to the backports ppa? [14:01] basically the same as your SRU [14:02] oSoMoN, you are in ~ubuntu-desktop now :) [14:02] kenvandine, yep, I'll do that nowz [14:02] -z [14:02] oSoMoN, thx [14:02] once it's built in the ppa ping me [14:03] i'll rebuild the snaps in candidate for some testing === amano_ is now known as amano [14:15] willcooke: how much we care about canonical-livepatch and Ubuntu flavours? [14:16] willcooke: e.g. I guess xubuntu ships software-properties-gtk but not the patched gnome-online-accounts [14:16] willcooke: or any gnome-online-accounts at all [14:17] willcooke: should I patch software-properties to hide it if the current desktop is not ubuntu:GNOME? [14:18] andyrock, it's be grand if they could use it. I'd like us to move as much stuff out of the older app (e.g. Software & Updates, printing settings, etc) in to GNOME Settings this cycle, so something to think about there. I think for now though, the best thing to do is ask the flavours that use software-properties-gtk what they'd like to do. I'd like to encourage as many people as we can to use it [14:18] I'm installing xubuntu on a vm to check what they ship [14:18] andyrock: I believe GOA should work for Budgie and Unity too [14:21] jbicha: /join #xubuntu [14:21] sorry [14:21] :D [14:23] I think Cinnamon also implemented a GOA frontend so Xubuntu could do it but it would take some development work [14:25] willcooke, jbicha they don't even use gnome-control-center [14:26] I think for the moment we should hide it, otherwise we get a lot of reports [14:27] gnome-control-center won't work outside GNOME (or Budgie) at a minimum because of the OnlyShowIn keys (it also expects gnome-settings-daemon plugins to be running) [14:32] I'm thinking about the best way to hide the checkbutton without hardcoding it [14:34] andyrock: don't you depend on GOA? [14:34] on the lib yes [14:34] not on the provider (in this case gnome-control-center) [14:35] in theory we could make software-properties-gtk a provider [14:35] but that requires to build gir for goa-backend too [14:38] we really need to start a conversation with gnome upstream to improve the goa api [14:38] they're too tied to the provider [14:39] you can look for control-center being dbus activatable [14:39] ListActivatableNames [14:39] or load its desktop file and check OnlyShowIn dynamically [14:40] g_app_info_should_show [14:44] Laney: kk thanks [14:44] kenvandine, the amd64 build of ibus that I pushed to the gnome-3-26 PPA appears to be hung, it's taking way too long to run the tests [14:44] I'll cancel it and rebuild it, if you don't mind [14:44] Laney, willcooke, jbicha I also opened a trello board regarding goa api: https://trello.com/c/iQWtgD1F/83-start-a-conversation-with-gnome-upstream-to-improve-the-gnome-online-accounts-api [14:45] k [14:45] we forgot to review rls bugs in the meeting btw [14:45] brb [14:47] @andyrock https://debarshiray.wordpress.com/2012/10/06/goa-why-it-is-the-way-it-is/ that's why we are not using GOA in elementary FYI [14:47] tintou: Error: "andyrock" is not a valid command. [14:47] Laney, jbicha: It would be good if we could revisit and finalize bug #1762889. The latest patch I submitted ought to still apply except for the d/changelog part, but then there was some discussion about help-* templates in general. [14:47] bug 1762889 in pkgbinarymangler (Ubuntu) "dh_translations doesn't strip .desktop files when more than 1 pot target with meson" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1762889 [14:50] oSoMoN, sure [14:51] GunnarHj: I defer to you and L_aney on that but I would like the change to be SRU'd to bionic [14:54] jbicha: Ok. Agree on SRUing. [14:59] Laney: I can also use the desktop file of the online-accounts panel [14:59] Laney: just in case someone is shipping gnome-control-center without that panel [15:19] andyrock: that seems really niche, I'm not sure this is useful at all outside of Ubuntu, but ok... [15:19] GunnarHj: I know about it, and I don't care about SRUing so if one of you wants to do that you can take care of it [15:21] but I'll review soon-ish, honest! [15:30] kenvandine, ibus rebuilt with my patch and published in the gnome-3-26 PPA [15:31] Laney: Ok. Let's get it in for cosmic first, so we know what to SRU. ;) I'll update the patch with a couple of details, to please wait with reviewing until tomorrow. [15:36] oSoMoN, thx === pstolowski is now known as pstolowski|afk [16:55] andyrock: #xubuntu-devel would be a better channel for questions next time :) [17:01] kk [17:05] willcooke: what did you mean by 'ask flavours using software-properties what they want to do' ? were you referring to canonical-livepatch? [17:05] flocculant, yeah [17:06] willcooke: okey doke - I'll add that to our list of stuff for 18.10 if you want [17:06] I know it doesn't work :) [17:06] flocculant, it only supports LTSes. [17:06] flocculant: canonical-livepatch only works on lts [17:07] * oSoMoN calls it a day [17:07] well it wasn't working last week for me in 18.04 [17:07] flocculant, basically, enable it (install the snap, apply a key - which s-p-gtk can do for you) and sit back and relax [17:07] flocculant, there aren't any live patches available yet [17:07] * willcooke checks the time [17:07] willcooke: couldn't do it - didn't get further than a hanging password entry [17:08] The contents of what goes in here is open source, correct? (I know livepatch isn't). [17:08] flocculant, oh, interesting. Using s-p-gtk? andyrock might be able to help debug that [17:08] (If I wanted to grab the exact things applied, could I?) [17:09] flocculant: on Ubuntu or Xubuntu? [17:09]
