jibelcpaelzer, Hey, I proposed https://github.com/bzed/pkg-open-vm-tools/pull/2007:16
gitbotbzed issue (Pull request) 20 in pkg-open-vm-tools "Add modaliases to open-vm-tools-desktop" [Open]07:16
jibelcpaelzer, for Ubuntu I propose a debdiff and we'll remove the delta when the debian package is synced? or it's better to wait for the sync but it may already be a bit late in the cycle for that? what do you think?07:17
cpaelzerhi jibel07:26
cpaelzerjibel: you are asking the right question but the answer has two "depends"07:27
cpaelzerjibel: usually we'd wait for Debian and sync07:27
dufluMorning jibel, frederik-f, Europe, Africa, ...07:28
cpaelzerjibel: but here since it does not fix "a Debian problem" and they are in Freeze for Buster there most likely won't be a fast Debian upload of this07:28
cpaelzerjibel: therefore I'd recommend you make your bug an FFe and get an ack (if you want this in 19.04)07:28
cpaelzerjibel: and somewhen in 19.10 when your PR has resolved we can make it a sync again07:28
jibelcpaelzer, okay, thanks. I'll do that07:29

cpaelzerasking for reconsideration09:43

cpaelzerjibel: so please feel free to go on getting it into Disco09:44
cpaelzerjibel: I have not seen the bug converted to an FFe yet09:44
cpaelzerjibel: or did you in fact plan for 19.10 instead?09:44
jbichatseliot: just to be clear, Kubuntu installs polkit-kde-agent-1 by default which is a provider of the polkit-1-auth-agent virtual package so it shouldn't try to install gnome-shell on Kubuntu09:50

gitbotGNOME issue (Merge request) 454 in gnome-shell "Magnifier content ensure it has proper size and node color" [1. Bug, Opened]11:45
jibeltseliot, I'd need to tell ubuntu-drivers to install only free drivers (eg only drivers in main/universe) is there already a way to do that? or you'd be okay if I add an option --free-only to restrict the package list to packages in main/universe?11:47

gitbotubuntu issue (Pull request) 1255 in yaru "Update changelog" [Open]12:15
clobranoLaney: there's a bug in dashtodock that's affecting the overview mode https://github.com/micheleg/dash-to-dock/issues/90412:33
clobranoIf it persists in disco, we might use non-transparent top panel in overview12:33
gitbotmicheleg issue 904 in dash-to-dock "Gnome Shell 3.31.92 overview mode dock is black" [Open]12:33
Laneyokey, thanks12:34
seb128jbicha, undecided yet on whether we should do that or disable this panel for this cycle since it's quite buggy/not very useful12:37
TrevinhoLaney: not expecting to happen now, probably something won't ever go in since we want to add another API, so... distropatchiiing :P12:43
Laneyyou think that other upstream people want to leave zoom broken?12:44
TrevinhoLaney: they're ok on the first part of things, showing the mouse and stuff, but all the scaling fixes might be not something we want to have in this way (as there's no other way than a workaround to know the pointer texture scale, as I missed to add an API).12:45
Trevinhoso... this part could need new APIs and upstream always prefer final fixes more than incremental ones.12:46
Laneyare there merge requests to add the new API?12:47
TrevinhoLaney: nope, I won't do it until we branched on 3-3212:49
Trevinhocause it wouldn't be 3-32 material anyways, so...12:50
Laneywe could take those though probably12:51
Laneyso you think people would prefer a slightly broken 3.32 in pursuit of the ideal fix in 3.33?12:52
Laneydid you confirm that?12:52
Laneythe branch would be made once the first non-3.32 fix is merged wouldn't it?12:53
* Laney thinks #gnome-shell would be a better channel probably12:53
TrevinhoLaney: well the ideal fix is ideal only from a programmer point of view, from the user point of view both the solutions will give the same result :)13:02
LaneyI believe you, but I also don't want us to have a forever distro patch13:05
Laneyor even do one at all if it can be avoided (not sure what conversations you've had with others about it yet)13:05
Laneyso I'm tryin to get an idea of what the sustainable path forward is13:06
cpaelzerjibel: you see I told you bzed is usually nice :-)13:08
jibelcpaelzer, yeah, great to see this merged.13:08

Laneyclobrano: you didn't see my comment on the changelog I guess? :>13:17
Laneyneeds to be 19.04.1 or something13:17
clobranoLaney: uhm, not yet, but I'm already fixing the changelog for the latest push, so I'll fix that too13:18
Laneythx!13:18

Laney(which this is)13:23
clobranoLaney: done13:24
Laney13:25
Laneywill look at that in a bit (got to move places now)13:25
TrevinhoLaney: it will be quite sustainable, you know temporary ones... :)13:25
Trevinhobut in any case I hope to get all this in first, then to rework things. I don't see the point why 32 should be not fully fixed when we can still have it.13:26
LaneyI don't say it can't, I say that I want to know that you've had it ruled out by upstream first13:28
Laneyat the moment I see a reluctance to talk that I don't really understand13:28
Laneyin any case we won't have this bug fixed, just trying to push you in the usual direction13:30
Laneyk, back shortly13:30
Trevinhomh, what you mean by "reluctance to talk"?13:31
LaneyYou're telling me that this is unacceptable for upstream but I don't see that said anywhere13:31
Laneythe only thing I see is fearnon saying thanks for the MR13:31
Trevinhothere's no real discussion yet, I've just talked to Jonas who said that he would prefer a final solution13:32
Trevinhoyeah, I mean, you know I tend to put a few more things on top one of the other :P13:32
LaneyI find it weird that they'd want 3.32 to be out there with this bug13:32
Laneybut...13:32
Laneyif that's the case, it'd be best if the MR said that13:33
Laneyk, really gone13:33
Trevinhowell, yeah, it's pretty bad. But the drawing itself can be fixed in few lines, the scaling issue is an improvement that would make sense imho,13:33
Trevinhothings are in different commits though, so since reviews are per commits, we can still land a part of it in case.13:34
tseliotjibel: what's the use case here?13:51
jibeltseliot, on Ubiquity ubuntu-drivers is called only for third party drivers (for nvidia mainly). We want to use ubuntu-drivers to install free drivers too during installation (eg open-vm-tools) but not proprietary drivers if the user didn't chose 'third party drivers' or selected 'free software only' in the boot menu13:55
jibeltseliot, the change would be something like http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/8P7Vv4qDjW/13:56
jibelit'd require a change in ubiquity too to call ubuntu-drivers with the new argument13:56
jibelkenvandine, in spotify snap I lost the decoration of the window. Is it a known problem with snaps?13:59
tseliotjibel: and the whitelist would still be there, so it shouldn't cause anything that we don't want to get installed13:59
jibeltseliot, yes we keep the whitelist14:00
jibeland a single whitelist since the free/non-free info already exists at the package level14:00
tseliotjibel: ok, it sounds good to me. It is something we should have at least one test for in the test suite14:01
jibeltseliot, yes, I'll add a couple of tests for that14:01
tseliotjibel: all right, feel free to send me a merge proposal when you're ready14:02

seb128didrocks, we review things suggested, but it's fine to have things decided by team and/or management and directly targetted&assigned outside the meeting14:57
seb128if it's a management decision to target there is no much to discuss14:57
didrocksok, so the team assignements here are not the only assignements14:57
didrocksjust making this clear14:58
seb128well, the -tracking list are a reflect of what is accepted14:58

Laneyhahah14:58
kenvandineweird, says it only affects the one machine14:59
seb128I vote -notfixing14:59
willcookeI think they targetted it without knowing what the implications are14:59
willcookeI'll sort it out14:59
seb128thx14:59
LaneyLaunchpad recently changed so that nominating doesn't happen any more15:00
willcookethat's the only one though seb128?15:00
Laneyeveryone who could nominate can now target directly15:00
Laneyso I expect more of this kind of thing15:00
willcookeah15:00
willcookefun15:00
seb128willcooke, yes15:00
kenvandineoh joy15:00
seb128Laney, do you know if that was discussed somewhere public?15:00
willcookeok, so lets now really move on to errors.u.c15:00
seb128k15:00
Laneydiscussed not sure, I saw a post about that somewhere15:00
kenvandinethat is going to be frustrating15:00
Laneycan't remember where though, sorry awbout that15:00
seb128np15:01
willcookeI haven't pre-filtered the e.u.c list and I used all the time in the previous meeting to talk about other stuff... so15:01
seb128my comment from previous week still stand15:01
seb128I think e.u.c should have reports converted to bug and going to the rls-incoming process as appropriate15:02
Laneythat makes sense, just needs to be done15:02
Laney(far enough in advance of the meeting that the page has refreshed)15:02
willcookeoki, then let's do that tomorrow seb128?  You & I, and anyone else who wants in15:02
seb128I'm fine doing that starting next week15:02
seb128I can do it weekly on mondays15:02
seb128so we have those in place on the rls incoming on time15:02
kenvandineseb128: awesome15:02
seb128willcooke, k15:02
seb128well let's discuss the details later if you want15:03
willcookeDo you want to do it in a HO, or would you prefer to do it alone at your convenience?15:03

Laneythere are some things https://trello.com/b/RHiGQXZJ/ubuntu-desktop-1904-cycle?menu=filter&filter=label:proposed-migration15:04
LaneyI'm a bit concerned about the assignment process for that15:04
willcookeseem to have found a secret key shortcut for quit15:04
willcookeoh, ctrl-q15:04
Laneyhttps://trello.com/c/kEcqB34L/257-appstream-0125-1-to-0126-1 <- that got marked as in progress with nobody assigned, and hasn't moved since then15:04
Laneyhttps://trello.com/c/mWodrc3o/256-libvorbis-blocking-build-essential-125ubuntu2-to-126ubuntu1-for-4-days that never got assigned (but apparently someone else fixed it, so lucked out)15:05
willcookeWe should probably assign them now then.  I expect last week we said "lets do it later" and then forgot15:05
willcookeor we were supposed to do it in the manager meeting, and didnt have time15:05
willcookeyeah, that ^15:05
seb128another reason we need to move that meeting to wednesday15:06
willcookeoki, seb128 shall we look at that too later on?15:06
kenvandineyeah15:06

parideHi. On my up-to-date disco system the multi-monitor support is a bit broken. When I connect an external screen to the laptop (in "Join Displays" mode, primary display = external) the windows move the the external monitor, but the workspaces are "lost", and I end up with all the windows mixed in a single workspace. I'm pretty sure the workspaces did15:39
paride persist in bionic.15:39
parideMy system is pretty standard: a thinkpad T480s connected to an external display via displayport (actually usb-c, but shouldn't matter)15:39
parideThis happens even with a "clean" user I added to the system specifically for testing with15:40
seb128paride, that didn't change since bionic, GNOME handles the second monitor as a presentation board with no UI element nor workspaces15:41
seb128that on our list of things to improve in the next cycles15:42
parideseb128, I know, but that's not the problem -- let me try to explain it again.15:42
parideLet's say I have 4 workspaces on my laptop screen, with a terminal in each workspace. I connect the external (primary) monitor. The laptop screen becomes the "presentation board" you describe, as expected. On the external monitor I end up with *one* single workspace with all the 4 terminals15:43
seb128paride, oh, then that might be a regression, best to open a report about (on launchpad and ideally upstream as well)15:45
parideseb128, which package do you suggest to file it against?15:45
paridegnome-shell15:47

seb128you installed in en_GB I guess?20:52

seb128I will do an install/check tomorrow21:01
seb128willcooke, btw did you check if the default snaps were available/working21:01
seb128context being https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/no-more-preinstalled-snap-on-ubuntu-19-04/1033921:02

robert_ancellseb128, hello21:06
willcookemorning robert_ancell21:06
robert_ancello/21:06
seb128robert_ancell, replying here than via email, going to be easier :)21:06
robert_ancellmakes sense21:06
seb128robert_ancell, should we consider the risk/benefit of the gnome-software update?21:06
seb128does it bring anything that we/our users are going to want?21:07
robert_ancellI've just had the same conversation with ken via direct IRC - so might save some time here :)21:07
seb128if not maybe we should stop spending resources on that update, delete from proposed and postpone it to next cycle21:07
robert_ancellseb128, there's no feature I can think of that is essential - and we're already backporting features as necessary.21:07
seb128https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/blob/master/NEWS21:08
robert_ancellseb128, I feel uneasy about the release, so I'm happy about postponing it.21:08
willcookeseb128, fwiw - snap refresh shows the same error here21:08
seb128willcooke, sounds like a confirmed bug21:08
robert_ancellseb128, "snap: Use new media API" is the only one I can see and we're already SRUing that everywhere so doing that for disco is not a problem.21:10
seb128robert_ancell, so reading the NEWS it seems lot of flatpak work mostly21:10
robert_ancellflatpak and appstream optimization (i.e. libxmlb)21:11
seb128maybe appmenu/new icon are the UI changes that would be worth having for consistency with the other apps21:11
seb128but we can probably backport those easily21:11
robert_ancellyeah, I did that change and it should be backportable.21:12
seb128robert_ancell, well, libxmlb is so untested that we don't even have a single deb listed today21:12
robert_ancellright.21:12
robert_ancellIt's a lot of risk for minimal gain imho.21:12
seb128+1 from me to give up for this cycle if that's your position21:12
seb128it's up to you as the maintainer to decide though21:12
robert_ancellI don't recall having official maintainers :P But yes, I agree. Is the only action to delete it from -proposed?21:13
seb128k, let's drop it then? I can delete from proposed, tag as blocked-versions and comment about that on the bug21:13
robert_ancellplease do.21:13
seb128you are the de-facto maintainer, nobody else has been touching it in Ubuntu this cycle21:14
robert_ancellThe age old definition of maintainer, whoever touched it last :)21:14
seb128robert_ancell, well, it's rather 'who we might have available to fix the issue before the release' there21:17
willcookeseb128, have you got your test laptop handy?21:17

robert_ancellseb128, sure, I'm jk21:18

willcookerobert_ancell, do you think you'll stick around for the meeting later on?  It's in about 12 hours?21:19
robert_ancellwillcooke, I can do21:19
willcookerobert_ancell, I can share the slides with you now, and then if you have questions, ask away, or yeah, if you are able to listen in, it might be, erm, not interesting, but something a bit like that21:19

ahayzenwas that deduplication thing part of 3.32 gnome software i forget?  eg if you had the same app as a deb/snap/flatpak it'd merge them into one with a drop down?22:36
jbichaI don't know: we didn't land the libxmlb fix so we .deb's don't work at all yet22:37
ahayzeni think it comes under "Improved handling for apps that are available from multiple sources", but right if libxmlb isn't working then it probably won't work :-/22:38
jbicharobert_ancell: were you going to push https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/tree/debian/patches/0014-Add-a-basic-permissions-system.patch to GNOME?22:40
robert_ancelljbicha, I've discussed it with Richard/Alan a few times. I think now the system is in g-c-c it probably doesn't make sense anymore (i.e. g-s should just link to g-c-c).22:41
robert_ancelljbicha, I'm referring to the new applications pane in g-c-c.22:42
robert_ancellOne of the reasons we did the implementation in g-s is that is was easier than g-c-c at the time.22:42
jbichaok22:44
jbichait's too bad it didn't land for buster (it needs translations so wasn't really suitable for applying in Debian) but it will be nice for next cycle at least :)22:45
robert_ancellCan't seem to find any bugs / MRs for it. I guess the discussions were mostly in person?22:48
jbichaI didn't push the patch to Debian because Debian doesn't have a convenient way to translate stuff like Ubuntu does22:59
jbichawhile the feature is nice to have, I assume it's annoying for the UI to not be fully translated especially if everything else is23:00
