dufluLaney, can we backport the fix for bug 1774957 to bionic?09:23
ubot5bug 1774957 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu) "Network icons in status menu disappearing" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/177495709:23
Laneyduflu: I should think so - are you up for submitting it?09:26
Laneyideally a cherry-pick MR09:26
dufluLaney, I was speaking hypothetically. It doesn't affect me and I am finishing up for the week. Just accepting the nomination would be good thanks09:27
Laneythen it'll need an assignee09:28
LaneyActually this is in 3.28 so what we really want is a release09:28
seb128hey again desktop, from the co-working space09:40

* Laney stares at libreoffice11:39
seb128the build issue?11:59
Laneyye11:59
seb128that one doesn't make any sense to me (at least from the log, I didn't do any poking)11:59

seb128did the toolchain changed recently?12:03
Laneydunno12:03
seb128it built a few days ago12:03
Laneyjust analysed the actual bug12:03
seb128k12:03
Laneyprevious build didn't have -O3 -O2 there but I don't know where that comes from yet12:04
Laneyah yeah from dpkg12:05
Laneythis seems wrong12:05
Laney(dpkg-buildflags)12:07
Laneynew dpkg broke this12:11

seb128kenvandine, hey, I failed the fontconfig SRU over https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/1803534/comments/1216:03
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1803534 in fontconfig (Ubuntu) "Backport uuid based cache file naming scheme" [Undecided,New]16:03
kenvandineseb128: ok, thanks16:03
kenvandinei'm actually looking at that right now16:03
kenvandineseb128: i think that issue in the SRU occurs in cosmic16:05
kenvandineso we backported some bug... i think16:05
kenvandinefirefox has been causing me lots of grief for a while now, and it looks like the same thing as reported in the SRU verification16:05
kenvandinei think it's been going on since i upgraded to cosmic16:05
seb128kenvandine, it's possible, my comment was the missing symbol/invalid depends though16:05
kenvandineah... well there was a potential regression reported16:06
seb128I know, I hit the depends issue while trying to reproduce the cpu one :p16:06
kenvandinemissing symbol... that's surprising16:06
kenvandinei don't recall lintian complainging16:07
seb128well, it went away when I installed libfontconfig1 from proposed16:07
seb128but fontconfig should depends on the new version if it needs it16:07
kenvandineyeah, that makes sense16:07
seb128e.g "sudo apt install fontconfig" should have pulled in the lib16:07
seb128rather than failing in postinst and letting my dpkg angry16:07
kenvandinethe cpu one doesn't happen right away, in my experience16:08
kenvandinebut it seems every couple days i have to kill firefox16:08
seb128I can trigger it directly with what the user described16:08
seb128log in16:08
seb128start firefox16:08
seb128sudo synaptic16:08
seb128I've 2 Web Content process fighting for cpu16:08
kenvandinefirefox snap or deb?16:09
seb128I can't even use the machine16:09
seb128deb16:09
seb128standard install, it's a test machine pretty much stock install16:09
kenvandinethe Web Content process pegging the cpu is what i see and i suspect it's related to some apt update happening16:09
seb128well in my case it's not apt16:09
seb128I started a new session16:09
seb128sudo synaptic is enough16:10
seb128firefox is looping in futex and opening fonts16:10
kenvandinei installed synapitc a bit ago, will test that scenario as soon as a build i have going finishes :)16:11
seb128it stops when I close synaptic16:11
kenvandineinteresting16:11
kenvandinei thought it might be something triggering a cache refresh16:12
seb128could be16:12
* kenvandine decides not to wait16:13
kenvandineoh sigh... can't run sudo synaptic on wayland :(16:13
kenvandine(synaptic:10712): Gtk-WARNING **: 11:11:09.968: cannot open display: :016:13
seb128kenvandine, it looks like https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=90981816:14
ubot5Debian bug 909818 in fontconfig "firefox: Web Content is eating nearly 100% CPU, several of them" [Grave,Fixed]16:14
seb128which is https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/fontconfig/fontconfig/commit/5f12f56416:14
seb128https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=909818#90 has details16:15
ubot5Debian bug 909818 in fontconfig "firefox: Web Content is eating nearly 100% CPU, several of them" [Grave,Fixed]16:15
kenvandineseb128: i had the SRU version built and installed on cosmic and can reproduce the problem16:25
kenvandinebut downgrading to cosmic version it's fine16:26
kenvandineso yeah, we backported that bug :)16:26
kenvandinei wonder what synaptic is doing to trigger that16:26
seb128kenvandine, it's not synaptic, sudo gedit does the same, I guess it's gtk under sudo16:32
kenvandineweird16:32
kenvandineseb128: i'll add the depends and patch to fix that issue16:38
seb128great16:39
Laneybumping the shlibs version in d/control is probably the correct way to do that16:40
Laneyrules*16:40
kenvandineLaney: yeah16:41
kenvandinethat makes more sense :)16:41
seb128Laney, didrocks, do you know if hw-detect is using in ubiquity? wondering if https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/hw-detect/merge_requests/2/diffs would work for ubiquity as well or only d-i16:48
gitbotDebian Installer issue (Merge request) 2 in hw-detect "hw-detect.sh: install open-vm-tools when running under VMware Virtual Platform" [Opened]16:48
didrocksthere is something with probert, but not the same one used in subiquity16:48
seb128well that's a Debian PR, so d-i, not subiquity16:49
seb128I just wonder if that would give us the package install working for free on ubiquity as from today as well16:49
didrocksyep, ubiquity uses hd-detect16:49
seb128thx16:49
didrocksto load firmwares and such16:49
didrocksunsure if this uses package install though16:49
seb128right, I saw it was writting the modprobe etc but I'm unsure if the package install would apply16:50
seb128thx for replying didrocks :)16:50
didrocksyw! I wonder how much this is interesting for this installer though, as the new one won't use d-i as per spec16:51
LaneyI'm not sure without testing, sorry16:56
Laneyxnox or cyphermox might though16:58
Laneyopen-vm-tools would need to be seeded of course16:58
seb128right17:05
seb128thx didrocks Laney17:05
seb128k, enough co-working, time to 'commute' back :) have a nice w.e desktopers!17:05
willcookesee you seb12817:05
Laneybye!!!17:05
cyphermoxmoo?17:06
cyphermoxgood weekend seb12817:06
seb128thx, you too guys!17:06
Laneycyphermox: that merge proposal seb128 linked, would it work on ubiquity if opem-vm-tools was seeded or do we not run that bit of hw-detect there?17:06
cyphermoxwe don't run hw-detect I think17:07
cyphermoxbut if it's seeded, it should just work17:07
Laneyit'd be in the pool or something I guess17:08
cyphermoxyeah17:08
cyphermoxwell, seeded it will be on the rootfs17:08
cyphermoxactually installed, as opposed to being on the pool on the CD17:08
=== pstolowski is now known as pstolowski|afk
cyphermoxunless you want to seed it in live-share or something, but why17:09
Laneyso it can be conditionally installed17:10
Laneylike that MR does17:10
Laneylive seed probably17:11
Laneyso indeed not pool17:11
willcookenight all18:04
