jbichafossfreedom: gnome-shell/gdm3 is back on your iso because of notification-daemon this time00:29
RAOF/msg robert_ancell Hey, could you kindly ping me on telegram? I'd like to make sure I can actually receive messages before arriving at the sprint :)01:58
sarnold/msg RAOF I'm not sure your irc client is your friend :)02:01
RAOFsarnold: The perils of bridging to Matrix ☺02:01
sarnoldRAOF: curious, I didn't expect that..02:02
RAOFIt's possible that a more mature client than Fractal would have picked the /msg up and translated it.02:03
JanCis matrix or any matrix client supposed to interpret IRC commands at all?02:07
ahayzenhttps://riot.im/app does interpret some commands02:08
RAOFRiot has its own set of commands.02:08
RAOFYeah,02:08
JanCI mean, the fact that matrix bridges to IRC doesn't mean it has to have the same UI02:08
jbichalol02:34
jbichaI'm just glad that it wasn't anything more sensitive!02:35
RAOFI'd be checking more thorourgly for something more sensitive than “give us a ping to test my notification settings” ☺02:53

jibelthe UX of the new version of control-center is terrible09:53
jibeland it crashes when I click on details09:53
jibelthen I cannot launch it again meh :(09:54
Laneythe second part is https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues/285, which is fixed upstream and the bug also contains a command you can use to be able to run it again10:01
gitbotGNOME issue 285 in gnome-control-center "crash in the info panel" [1. Crash, 6. Component: Info, Closed]10:01
seb128bug #1814949 on the launchpad side10:05
ubot5bug 1814949 in gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) "gnome-control-center refuses to open if you try to open the Details panels" [Critical,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/181494910:05
seb128what's the problem with the UX?10:05
* Laney wonders what the point of rls-dd-incoming on that is when jbicha has the ability to fix it10:07
jibelmain panel is almost empty until you resize the window depending on the panel, when you go to applications you cannot go package, sound panel has too many items, that's 2 min of using it before it crashes and I cannot open it anymore10:14
jibelgo back*10:22
seb128I'm not sure ot understand the resize thing, applications is a new panel and probably not that useful atm for us since it's flatpak centric (though Robert has a card o make it work iwth snaps)10:22
seb128the crash is an unfornate regression from the new glib, those happens in the unstable cycle10:23
seb128& it's being handled10:23
seb128if you find the new sound panel design too 'busy' please report upstream, I'm sure they welcome feedback10:24
seb128it fits better than the old design imho, doesn't mean it's perfect10:24
jibelin this case the release should have been postponed until glib is fixed10:24
jibelor whatever is broken between glib and g-c-c10:24
seb128it's not like the "details" panel was an essential feature and worth revertingglib over10:25
seb128we don't block stabilization of important OS pieces over things noone really needs10:25
seb128like I don't think arguing that glib should be blocked over/revert because the info panel of settings is having an issue10:25
seb128+ makes sense10:26
seb128it would be detrimental to the release quality imho and conterproductive10:26
seb128you loose days/weeks of important testing for a panel which has no issue, come on10:26
jibelthe problem is not the panel, you cannot launch g-c-c again after it crashes10:27
seb128the workaround is easy10:27
seb128"gnome-control-center sound" for example10:27
andyrockdo you know if it's possible to make read-only a page on wiki.ubuntu.com ?10:27
jibelnope, it doesn't work10:27
seb128andyrock, I dont know, maybe popey does?10:27
seb128jibel, ?10:28
jibelthe workaround doesn't work10:28
seb128what does it say?10:28
jibelj-lallement@sark:~/Downloads$ gnome-control-center sound10:28
jibelSegmentation fault (core dumped)10:28
jibeljust try on disco10:28
seb128can you get a bt?10:28
seb128I can confirm that info crashes10:29
Laneythat's not the workaround from the bug10:29
Laneyit's a gsettings reset10:29
seb128opening another panel should work though no?10:29
Laneyapparently not10:30
seb128it worked for me, weird, maybe timing or something10:30
seb128jibel, gsettings reset org.gnome.ControlCenter last-panel10:31
seb128then?10:31
jibelthis works10:32
seb128good10:32
seb128let me cherry pick that upstream patch also10:32
seb128so we can stop arguing for good10:32
seb128can you please give details on the reiszing issue and report the "sound panel is too busy" on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues as well?10:33
jibelyeah but still, things should be tested before begin uploaded and hold the release if there is an obvious crash. It was simple-scan last week, g-c-c this week and it took less than 2 min to make them crash10:36
jibelbeing*10:36
seb128come on10:38
seb128things are tested10:38
seb128the problem is coming from the glib update and not the g-c-c update10:38
seb128even if do one hour of starting everything I can think of using glib I might not think about going to the settings->info panel10:38
jibelsimple-scan crash last week?10:39
seb128different case10:39
jibelsame case, most basic tests have not been done10:39
seb128bah, I don't understand git again :/10:58
Laneyseb128: want help or?11:12
seb128Laney, no, thanks, I was about to ask but decided to try on a fresh checkout and then back in my working tree and now it works11:13
seb128I had11:13

seb128...11:13
seb128CONFLIT (contenu) : Conflit de fusion dans panels/mouse/gnome-mouse-properties.c11:13
seb128but it went away11:14
seb128maybe I was in the wrong branch or something11:14
Wimpressjibel: Just doing some 18.04.2 iso testing.11:14
Laneyokey11:14
seb128then pq export would fail saying I had unstashed changed but I figured it out11:14
WimpressNeither virtualbox-guest-x11 or virtualbox-guest-x11-hwe can be installed.11:14
seb128I needed to rebase --continue after resolving the conflict11:14
seb128anyway, thanks for asking Laney :)11:15
Laneyif someone else has done the rebase before (if you're just pulling and adding a patch for e.g.) you can also drop/import11:17
Laneynp11:17
seb128Laney, I was trying to follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/git#Pick_some_upstream_commits11:18
seb128instead of just dumping a .patch in debian/patches manually (would have been easier)11:19
Laneyok, just wanted to give you a tip11:20
seb128thx, I'm not sure ot understand git/gbp enough to understand the tip though11:21
seb128if I don't use 'gbp pq rebase', then what command does the job?11:21
Laneyrebase rebases the branch11:21
seb128oir you meant to just copy the .patch the old way?11:22
Laneybut you can re-create it11:22
Laneyif you just want to add a patch, that is what drop and import does11:22
seb128ah, right, I remember now, Marco mentioned that in the past :)11:25
seb128thx Laney11:25
seb128(also tried, indeed it works and avoid some of the 'noise' rebase is creating)11:25
Laneythat recipe is also not going to make a patch with dep3 headers ;-)11:29
* Laney edits it to add '-e' at least11:29

seb128but it's puzzling :/11:37
Wimpresstseliot: The doesn't appear to be a HWE nvidia driver for 18.04.2 in the archive.11:41
jbichaLaney: I didn't want to step on your toes by cherry-picking the g-c-c patch if you were planning to do it today12:17
jbichajibel: I don't have a scanner so I wasn't able to do the basic simple-scan test. It did run without a scanner…12:18
jbichagood morning12:19
Laneyjbicha: Alright, it was mostly that rls-dd-incoming seems like an unusual way to express that (you could have asked me)12:20
Laneyanyway, seb128 did it so all good12:20
jbichaI was probably going to ask today. Silly timezones :)12:20
Laneyfeel free to ping me any time, I'll just reply when I get online next12:21
jbichaok12:22
Laney:>12:22
jbichaI guess the most useful part of the new g-c-c Applications panel is that you can now disable file associations12:26
* Laney likes that12:26
jbichathe rest is like an alternative way of browsing the Search and Notifications panel (this way you navigate by app instead of by feature)12:26
Laneyjibel: I just filed https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues/377, not sure if that's what you were trying to describe but it seemed worth reporting to me12:44

jibelLaney, thanks for reporting it, it's the issue and the main input and output volumes are not visible12:51
jibelyou have to scroll12:51
Laneyright, the order of the components is in the design12:54
Laneyit's a bit weird when there are a lot of streams12:54
jibelLaney, do you see this too https://i.imgur.com/g53CLAd.png ?12:59

Laneynow let me try the headset14:18
seb128tseliot, is there a bug about the nvidia problem? is #r-t aware of the problem?14:20
Laneyk, close but no cigar, it paired fine but they're not listed in the sound panel as an output14:20
tseliotseb128: I don't think so, I noticed yesterday, and I asked tjaalton (who uploaded the new hwe stack)14:26

cyphermoxhey, on the desktop daily-live, I see the icon for ubiquity changed to some kind of weird circle and line thing, anybody know whether that's on purpose?15:50
kenvandinejbicha: i've released glade-master to edge and glade to candidate15:55
kenvandinejbicha: they have a fix for the gedit git mirror, just waiting for a sysadmin to roll it out16:11
kenvandinebeen in their queue for a couple days now16:11
tomreynhey, i installed using the desktop daily-live, kept the default setting of "install updates during installation", chose minimal install, and ended up with 297 pending upgrades.16:13
tomreyn(maybe this is already known or even expected at this time)16:14
kenvandinetomreyn: that's not surprising.  The latest daily-live is nearly 2 weeks old now.16:20
kenvandinetomreyn: there are newer ones in pending16:20
k_alamjbicha: Hi, in nm-applet dependency can it be "policykit-1-gnome | gnome-shell" instead of "gnome-shell | policykit-1-gnome" ?16:22
tomreynkenvandine: i see. but isn't it more of a conceptual issue then? being just a dumb user i am i would assume that keeping the "install updates during installation" option would, whether the installer is old or new, make me end up with exactly 0 pending updates after the install is done.16:23
tomreynkenvandine: anyways, i don'T want to delay any work, or waste anyone's time, just thought this may be relevant.16:24
kenvandinetomreyn: generally that number should be small.  With the current development release there are quite a few packages updated every day16:24
kenvandineand the goal is to have a new daily live image everyday, something is holding that back right now16:24
kenvandinenot the norm16:24
kenvandinetomreyn: no worries, it was worth mentioning :)16:24
tomreynwe seem to be discussing different things. my point is that i'd expect the installer to check for and install any pending updates, no matter when the installer was generated.16:25
kenvandineoh...16:26
kenvandineno it doesn't do that16:26
kenvandineit downloads them though16:26
kenvandineso when you first boot up they can be applied if you wish16:26
kenvandinewithout needing to download them16:26
