| zyga | hey ho | 07:56 |
| Chipaca | let's go | 07:57 |
| zyga | morning :-) | 08:06 |
| zyga | overcast but warm today | 08:06 |
| zyga | Chipaca: I wrote down my thoughts on daemon-notify: https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/its-a-little-bit-hard-to-use-daemon-notify-for-sd-notify/6366 | 08:07 |

| zyga | also did a tweet storm on twitter :) | 08:07 |
| Chipaca | zyga: I saw your tweets | 08:07 |
| Chipaca | zyga: also yesterday's | 08:07 |
| Chipaca | zyga: keep it up :-) | 08:07 |
| zyga | thank you for the encouragement :) | 08:07 |
| zyga | I was wondering if those are useful | 08:07 |
| zyga | and how long I will keep it up | 08:08 |
| zyga | uh, Guido resigned from Python | 08:12 |
| zyga | that's a biggie | 08:12 |
| Chipaca | zyga: he got his calendar wrong, it's not april 1 | 08:13 |
| Chipaca | maybe it's some crazy dutch version of april fool's | 08:13 |
| zyga | I envision he will pick up gardening now | 08:13 |
| zyga | or sheep | 08:13 |
| Chipaca | like april fool's but more racist | 08:13 |
| zyga | so, the bottom line is | 08:14 |
| zyga | if you do something for fun and love | 08:14 |
| zyga | don't let others tell you how | 08:14 |
| zyga | I cannot imagine how he must feel | 08:14 |
| Chipaca | zyga: and now you know why snapd team doesn't have a line manager | 08:16 |
| popey | zyga: is there any particular reason you're doing long tweet threads rather than blog posts recently? | 08:42 |
| zyga | popey: experimenting with the format mainly | 08:43 |
| popey | If you collated those tweets together, they'd probably make great blog posts for snapcraft.io/blog | 08:43 |
| zyga | popey: I may do both actually, since the text can live in two places | 08:43 |
| zyga | mmm, I can do that | 08:43 |
| popey | we'd love to have more content there which is technical and approachable | 08:43 |
| zyga | I'll do a hybrid twitter/blog post today and we can see how that can show up on snapcraft.io | 08:43 |
| popey | we make quite a bit of effort to get the blog posts out there. your tweets will die overnight, "nobody" will see them | 08:44 |
| popey | the blogs will live on, and can be re-shared (if they're evergreen) | 08:44 |
| zyga | evergreen? | 08:44 |
| popey | timeless | 08:44 |
| zyga | ah | 08:45 |
| pedronis | well afaiu zyga's is tweeting about work in progress work | 08:45 |
| zyga | yes, it's not the kind of post to return in 3 weeks | 08:45 |
| popey | right, some are, some aren't | 08:45 |
| zyga | but yeah, it's easier to read on a blog so I will aggregate as posts as well | 08:45 |
| pedronis | all code will be written and deleted and then rewritten (maybe) | 08:45 |
| popey | but putting it on twitter from an account nearly nobody follows means nobody sees it | 08:45 |
| popey | if the goal is just braindump fair enogh :) | 08:46 |
| zyga | I refreshed https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/5307 | 08:46 |
| popey | but if you want the content out there, I'd encourage blogging and working with us to promote them :) | 08:46 |

| zyga | popey: I want it out there, it was just me experimenting with the format really | 08:46 |
| zyga | and as evening memory save for tomorrow (but a blog does that too) | 08:47 |

| Chipaca | zyga: that should be 'system' though, right | 09:39 |
| Chipaca | in any case, go for it | 09:39 |
| zyga | should it? | 09:39 |
| zyga | I can chance it to system | 09:39 |
| Chipaca | zyga: I mean, in user-facing docs | 09:39 |
| zyga | ahh | 09:39 |
| zyga | I see what you mean now | 09:39 |
| pstolowski | zyga: yes i need it, it's independent of udev bits we discussed | 09:40 |
| zyga | I misunderstood that as "snap set core system.disable-ivp6" | 09:40 |
| Chipaca | zyga: internally right now it's core, but system is what we should talk about because system is core now but coreXYZ later | 09:40 |
| zyga | Chipaca: totally agreed | 09:40 |
| zyga | Chipaca: I will tweak the spread test | 09:40 |
| zyga | in a world of iot customers ask for an off switch for ipv6 | 09:41 |
| zyga | in some distant future the core snap version 1664 will be easy to confuse with 16-64 but perhaps nobody will use embedded 64bit address space anymore | 09:44 |

| zyga | I will deal with the coffee and add mapper that returns system in the API layer. We may need to differentiate the state and API mappers though, to keep rollback around (so that state is always mapping “snapd” to “core” on disk) | 12:27 |

| smoser | hi. is it possible to change the mode (jailmode/devmode/classic) of an installed snap ? | 13:58 |
| Chipaca | smoser: it is not | 14:00 |
| Chipaca | smoser: well | 14:00 |
| Chipaca | smoser: 'snap refresh' can do it | 14:00 |
| Chipaca | smoser: but 'snap switch' cannot | 14:00 |
| Chipaca | smoser: why? | 14:00 |
| smoser | jsut curious mostly. | 14:01 |
| smoser | https://github.com/smoser/pdftk/issues/1 | 14:01 |
| smoser | one solution to that is to instlal with --devmode (i think) | 14:01 |
| Chipaca | smoser: devmode stops you from getting updates though | 14:02 |
| jdstrand | smoser: that won't work cause devmode also uses the mount namespace and snap-specific /tmp | 14:02 |
| Chipaca | heh, and what jdstrand said | 14:02 |
| smoser | right. | 14:02 |
| Chipaca | smoser: what i've done when I had things in tmp is use bash's <()'s | 14:03 |
| smoser | thanks jdstrand . so the only solution there is "don't use /tmp" | 14:03 |
| Chipaca | smoser: so instead of pdftk infile outfile, pdftk <(cat infile) >(cat > outfile) | 14:04 |
| smoser | well the snap should be able to write to its stdin and stdout anyway | 14:05 |
| smoser | so you shouldnt need the (cat) | 14:05 |
| Chipaca | smoser: ah, if pdftk handles stdin/stdout, sure | 14:05 |
| smoser | just snap-program </tmp/my-input >/tmp/my-output | 14:05 |
| cjwatson | you might want to double-check that, since apparmor revalidates access to open fds | 14:06 |
| smoser | i yeah.. i hit that somewhere. it works sometimes. | 14:06 |
| cjwatson | so it's at least potentially the sort of thing that might not work even though it feels like it should | 14:06 |
| pstolowski | zyga: can you take a look at #5451? | 14:06 |

| scientes | How do I list all files in all snaps in the database? | 15:24 |
| scientes | is there a database I can download? | 15:24 |
| scientes | (like apt-file/apt's Contents.gz) | 15:25 |
| noise][ | scientes: there is not currently a manifest such as that | 15:31 |
| Chipaca | scientes: what for? | 15:32 |
| scientes | command-not-found | 15:33 |
| ogra_ | there is definitely nothing client side like Packages.gz (or the apt list files which are the local equivalents), this is all handled store side | 15:33 |
| Chipaca | scientes: what about command-not-found? | 15:33 |
| Chipaca | scientes: (we already have commant-not-found integration) | 15:34 |
| scientes | when I rewrote it ( https://github.com/shawnl/command-not-found/ ), there was comments that it should support snap | 15:34 |
| scientes | I re-wrote it to avoid the python dependency | 15:34 |
| Chipaca | scientes: oh! hi :-) | 15:34 |
| Chipaca | scientes: the person that did the majority of the integration with cnf is away this week | 15:36 |
| scientes | i'll look at the source | 15:36 |
| Chipaca | scientes: but, not command-not-found itself has grown support for being extended | 15:36 |
| Chipaca | scientes: and snap uses that extension point | 15:36 |
| scientes | oh i c | 15:36 |
| Chipaca | I say "has grown", but we were instrumental to that growth | 15:36 |
| scientes | does it increase the latency, given that it has to make a network request for every command_not_found hook? | 15:37 |
| Chipaca | scientes: it does not have to make a network request | 15:37 |
| Chipaca | scientes: the list of all commands _is_ available | 15:37 |
| Chipaca | scientes: the list of all files is not | 15:37 |
| scientes | oh i c that is better | 15:37 |
| Chipaca | scientes: if you have snapd on your system, you can look at the database, /var/cache/snapd/commands.db | 15:38 |
| Chipaca | scientes: snapd refreshes that periodically | 15:38 |
| Chipaca | scientes: all command-not-found does is then call (via an extension mechanism that I don't know offhand), e.g., “snap advise-snap --command tmnationsforever” | 15:39 |
| scientes | do you know what format that is? | 15:39 |
| Chipaca | scientes: boltdb | 15:39 |
| Chipaca | scientes: the integration made it into 18.04, but has not been backported, fwiw | 15:40 |
| scientes | yeah im' running 18.04 | 15:40 |
| Chipaca | cool | 15:40 |
| scientes | looks like boltdb is deprecated | 15:40 |
| Chipaca | so 'command_not_found_handle tmnationsforever' should show you | 15:41 |
| Chipaca | scientes: whatever the new thing is called, it's the same | 15:41 |
| Chipaca | scientes: bbolt | 15:42 |
| Chipaca | scientes: before you start looking into that database, keep in mind that the cnf extension mechanism was at least in principle built to also support flatpak | 15:43 |
| Chipaca | anyhow, back to work for me | 15:44 |

| roadmr | what's the cross-section between snapd-control interface and classic? | 18:53 |
| roadmr | if a snap uses classic, can it do snapd-control stuff? or is snapd-control isolated even from a classic snap? | 18:53 |
| pedronis | roadmr: if it has bits that run as root, yes | 18:55 |
| roadmr | ohh I see pedronis | 18:55 |
| roadmr | pedronis: and we have no way of knowing whether it does stuff as root, right? | 18:56 |
| roadmr | pedronis: so to ask another way: if a snap asks "I need either classic or snapd-control", we would prefer to grant snapd-control as it's less powerful than classic? (but I understand it's still quite powerful and dangerous) | 18:56 |
| pedronis | roadmr: yes, but it depends, there are factors of trust at play, also snapd-control is not useful for something like a compiler or an ide | 18:57 |
| noise][ | and snapd-control gives you those powers in fully confined (core) systems as well | 18:57 |
| roadmr | pedronis: right, I'm thinking about the case of a snap that wants classic to be able to interact with snapd | 18:58 |
| pedronis | yes, no classic on core | 18:58 |
| roadmr | ahh interesting, noise][ | 18:58 |
| pedronis | roadmr: it probably should instead make a case to get snapd-control | 18:58 |
| pedronis | talk to snapd is a case for snapd-control, not for classic | 18:59 |
| pedronis | (taken by itself) | 18:59 |
| roadmr | pedronis: right. OK, so that's guidance we can provide to developers in this case | 18:59 |
| pedronis | roadmr: I mean we shouldn't give classic to something we wouldn't give snapd-control, if the situation is talk to snapd | 18:59 |
| noise][ | that said we are very reluctant to grant snapd-control for anything in the global store | 19:00 |
| roadmr | totally | 19:00 |
| pedronis | noise][: yes, but in general we have been reluctant with any manage the system kind of thing so far | 19:01 |
| pedronis | in the global store | 19:01 |
| pedronis | (afaiu) | 19:01 |
| pedronis | I don't see classic vs snapd-control changing that equation | 19:01 |
| roadmr | noise][: yep, I remember that... so without guarantees that snapd-control will be granted, if someone wants classic and when asked why, says "so my snap can manage/add/remove/update snaps", we can say "the right thing to use is snapd-control" - but to reiterate, snapd-control use is evaluated on its own merits | 19:01 |
| roadmr | terrific, well this is enough info for what I wanted to know :) thanks both | 19:02 |
