[12:28] <rbasak> xnox: thank you for the certbot snap issue. Sorry I only just noticed it - I need to sort out the email to which my GitHub account is linked.
[12:29] <xnox> rbasak, no worries! basically mostly care because i do use arm64, and because their provided ppa is crap and has way too many backports of things which simultaniously breaks aws APIs python libraries.
[12:30] <xnox> (as shipped in xenial & bionic, i guess aws APIs snap would be fine, but currently use the system one)
[12:30] <rbasak> That's interesting. I'd appreciate more detail on that, because I want them to take on the snap, so it'd be useful to identify genuine shortcomings in their current approach.
[12:31] <rbasak> Especially because they're currently reviewing how they recommend/provide deployment
[12:31] <rbasak> xnox: could you file that as a bug upstream perhaps?
[12:32] <xnox> there is one
[12:32] <xnox> https://github.com/certbot/certbot/issues/5234
[12:37] <tarzeau> what would be the reason for ubuntu cosmic to not pick up mm3d 1.3.10 from debian?
[12:37] <tarzeau> and cloudcompare, colmap updates?
[12:42] <xnox> tarzeau, as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CosmicCuttlefish/ReleaseSchedule automatic imports from debian stopped on 23rd of August, the date of Debian import freeze.
[12:42] <xnox> tarzeau, mm3d was uploaded on 8th of September.
[12:42] <xnox> others probably similar?
[12:43] <xnox> none of them are seeded, so it might make sense to sync them in....
[12:44] <TJ-> doko: could you glance at the libc6-armhf-cross unpack failures in bug #1797557 - appears to be caused by the Bionic cross-toolchain upgrades in Bug #1769657
[12:44] <tarzeau> ahhhh for 18.10... i forgot about that
[12:44] <xnox> tarzeau, would you want me to sync them into cosmic? or are they good enough as it is?
[12:45] <tarzeau> xnox: the cloudcompare -2 revisions enables plugins and it's much better
[12:45] <tarzeau> xnox: protracker sync would be great also (-140 in debian, not in testing yet)
[12:45] <tarzeau> xnox: for colmap i'm not sure, you can try
[12:45] <tarzeau> and mm3d would also be great to have the 1.3.10 (new upstream fixes lots of bugs)
[12:45] <xnox> colmap - has a new binary =/ so might get stuck in NEW review.
[12:46] <tarzeau> xnox: pushover sync would be great too
[12:46] <tarzeau> xnox: skip it then
[12:46] <tarzeau> thanks a lot! let me check what other things would be useful for users
[12:46] <tarzeau> ah modplugtools -3 uses libopenmpt instead of libmodplug
[12:47] <tarzeau> what about packages in debian experimental non-free, they don't get synced at all, right?
[12:47] <tarzeau> qtractor 0.9.2-1 would also be good
[12:48] <xnox> tarzeau, experimental is not synced no. but you can use $ requestsync from ubuntu-dev-tools to open standardized launchpad bugs to do so.
[12:48]  * tarzeau installs ubuntu-dev-tools to try requstsync
[12:49] <xnox> it needs a launchpad account, and will authenticate with launchpad. i hope you do have a launchpad account.
[12:49] <xnox> but otherwise it is API / command line driven.
[12:49] <tarzeau> yes i'm lenin
[12:50] <tarzeau> if you can sync ballerburg too, it comes with .desktop menu system now
[14:00] <tarzeau> xnox: did you take care of the syncs, or should i do anything else?
[14:01] <xnox> tarzeau, they have been accepted, you should be able to see their progress at https://pad.lv/u/PKG
[14:01] <xnox> tarzeau, they need to build / publish / pass autopkgtest / pass britney before they migrate, if they migrate.
[14:02] <xnox> tarzeau, i think i got most of them.
[14:02] <tarzeau> xnox: yay very cool! thank you.
[14:02] <tarzeau> xnox: so for protracker (i added an appstream data file, i wonder if it appears in the gnome software thing)
[15:34] <xnox> juliank, Laney filed this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1797579 including a funny looking patch
[15:35] <xnox> juliank, could you look at that?
[15:35] <Laney> come to #ubuntu-installer
[15:35] <xnox> juliank, we have been discussing things in #ubuntu-installer, but you are not there =)
[15:35] <Laney> that's The Place
[18:06] <wxl> infinity: i bet you know the answer to this: we need to use `gio` to set an attribute of our installer's .desktop file, preferably before the desktop session starts. how do we go about this?
[18:07] <wxl> calasettings is in
[18:07] <wxl> i'm going to lunch
[18:07] <wxl> could you rebuild images when lximage-qt is in release, @tsimonq2 ?
[18:08] <wxl> aw heck wrong channel
[18:08]  * wxl cries
[18:08] <tsimonq2> wxl: If I'm awake.
[18:08] <tsimonq2> Still recovering :(
[18:18] <caravena> Cool!!! -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses
[19:43] <wxl> vorlon: you have any ideas on the question above re: needing to set file metadata on the installer .desktop file on our iso?
[19:45] <vorlon> wxl: I have no idea what that refers to or why it would be needed
[19:45] <vorlon> an "attribute"?  like a filesystem xattr?
[19:46] <wxl> vorlon: no, the backlog would help but to reiterate, i need to set `metadata::trusted` with `gio`. it's something that pcmanfm-qt uses to allow one to just double click on an executable and run it rather than giving a dialog that asks if you want to execute or open (i.e. edit)
[19:47] <wxl> vorlon: i'm no gio expert, but as i grok it that's hidden away in the virtual file system, so it's not like i can just copy over some config file
[19:51] <jbicha> wxl: look in casper's package, scripts/casper-bottom/25adduser
[19:52] <jbicha> https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/tree/scripts/casper-bottom/25adduser#n81
[19:53] <wxl> oh hah that's exactly what i need!
[19:53] <wxl> so i just need to add calamares.desktop to the for and i'm done. cool. thanks jbicha !
[19:56] <jbicha> casper-bottom is where most of the config is for stuff that only affects the live system on the iso
[20:26] <juliank> xnox, Laney sounds scary. do you think it's related to my minimizing stuff?
[20:26] <juliank> probably should discuss this closer on Monday, I joined #ubuntu-installer now
[20:57] <tarzeau> gnome-software and plasma-discover miss a feature called "community support", like add missing description, icon, screenshot for locally installed packages (an easy way to fill out, and submit)
[20:58] <tarzeau> half of the packages installed at my place show the brown box icon and well, nothing else
[21:05] <xnox> juliank, possibly
[21:05] <xnox> juliank, cause i don't think ubiquity learned to mark those lang packs as manual installed
[21:05] <xnox> if they happen to be pre-installed in the livefs and still needed post-install
