RAOFAlthough I've just restarted it under heaptrack and it's already up to 360M, which also seems a bit high for an always-running background service...00:17
ahayzeni thought there was talk at one point about splitting the search provider from the GUI part of gnome-software so that it doesn't need to run all the time, but not sure what happened to that.  And gnome-software is normally the 1st or 2nd highest memory usage app for me on idle :-/00:19

seb128hey marcustomlinson, how are you? feeling better?08:34
seb128ricotz, hey, how are you?08:34
seb128ricotz, do you have a fix for valabind to build with the new vala by any chance? I rebuilt gnome-builder/anjuta with the new soname yesterday but https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/valabind/1.7.1-4build1 failed08:35
dufluseb128, sounds busy08:35

marcustomlinsonhey seb128, had a rough night, hoping the doc can give me something today08:36
dufluMorning ricotz08:36
ricotzseb128, hi, I just pushed a fix for anjuta https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/anjuta/merge_requests/808:36
gitbotGNOME issue (Merge request) 8 in anjuta "Support vala 0.48" [Opened]08:36
seb128ricotz, also anjuta disabled vala support because the configure list of versions seem to stop at 0.46, probably need an autoreconf08:36
seb128ricotz, thx, I will sponsor that one now :)08:37
ricotzseb128, I can take a look at valabind08:37
seb128that would be nice08:37
seb128thx again!08:37
marcustomlinsonseb128: but at least I don't have to go into an office :P how are you?08:37
ricotzseb128, so for anjuta you can cherry-pick the two commits of this MR08:37
seb128ricotz, I didn't sync the new version yet because the current one is a valid candidate for migration and I didn't want to risk delaying again/being caught with other proposed issue. I will do the sync once the current one migrates08:37
ricotzseb128, ack, thx08:38

amurrayi haven't seen robert online today but if I see him tomorrow I'll ping him too :)11:19
jameshfor what it is worth, the client has control over whether snapd will trigger a polkit dialog11:25
jameshthat could suppress the dialog, but wouldn't let the automatic update occur11:25
seb128ricotz, thx for the fixes, vala migrated now11:40
seb128amurray, he's off thursday/friday this week so I guess it's for next week, ahayzen had a candidate patch yesterday though11:42
seb128amurray, https://gitlab.gnome.org/ahayzen/gnome-software/commit/0597be6f if you fancy giving that a try11:42
ahayzen[m]seb128, btw I sent an email to Robert detailing that patch and the issue, so hopefully he'll see it next week.11:46

Wimpressseb128: Ubuntu/GNOIMNE is good so far on my main workstation.13:51
WimpressBut it is a computer I use very differently to my laptop.13:51
WimpressSo, some tweak was required to make multi-monitor work as I would like.13:52
WimpressAll monitors switch workspaces together for example.13:52
WimpressSo extensions required for audio switching, since I have many audio interfaces.13:52
WimpressAnd Panel Indicators extension splits up the power/network/sound/date/user/notifications.13:54
WimpressAnd restore scroll wheel volume adjust on the sound indicator.13:54
WimpressAnd the Do not disturb extension is fab.13:55
seb128Wimpress, quite a customized experience but good that you can do that and have it working according to your preferences!14:02
WimpressIndeed.14:12
WimpressI spent sometime carefully reviewing the available extensions.14:13
WimpressThe ones I'm using a good quality and well maintained.14:14
WimpressBut time will tell if they all play well together.14:14
WimpressI do have some other extension for hardware monitoring, because I'm a nerd like that.14:15
WimpressAnd most importantly, and Emoji picker 🤣14:15
popeyseb128: have you seen any recent bug reports on 18.04 about luks volumes being unmountable since a recent systemd / udev update?14:22
seb128popey, I didn't14:22
popeyhm, okay, thanks.14:22
seb128jibel, ^14:22
jibelseb128, popey no I didn't14:46
ricotzseb128, how were the autopkgtest packages chosen for vala? aka libical3 currently14:46
kenvandinemarcustomlinson: so rebuilds of gnome-3-3{2,4}-1804-sdk need to be published to stable before i kick rebuilds of gnome-3-3{2,4}-1804, right?14:47
seb128ricotz, valac is listed in https://salsa.debian.org/debian/libical3/blob/master/debian/tests/control14:49
ricotzseb128, hmm, I would expect this to cause a dependency the other way around14:50
seb128ricotz, well, that test depends of vala, so when vala changes it's triggered to see if it's still green, which I think makes sense?14:51
seb128you want to see if a change in one of your depends breaks you14:51
ricotzseb128, ah, I see14:51
ricotzseb128, I meant to note that there are way better packages for this14:52
ricotzseb128, like triggering meson14:52
seb128I wonder if that's a bug?14:54
seb128meson tests depends on valac through a depends on @build-depends@14:55
seb128Laney, ^ you probably know what better off your head?14:55
seb128if ricotz want meson tests to be triggered on a valac update, should that work? or should we maybe add directly valac to the test depends?14:55
ricotzseb128, exactly, this reverse-dep seemed a bit weird14:57
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: um, depends on what the platform snap is referencing14:57
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: 3-32 platform for example pulls from gnome-3-32-1804-sdk/latest/candidate14:58
marcustomlinsonI see that 3-34 uses stabe14:58
marcustomlinsonstable14:58
seb128brb, changing location14:58
kenvandinemarcustomlinson: we should make those both pull from the same channel :)14:59
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: well, it's not that simple14:59
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: see my process is, build sdk push to candidate, build platform from candidate sdk14:59
marcustomlinsonif both build fine, promote both14:59
kenvandineyeah, that makes sense to me15:00
kenvandineso they should both use candidate there15:00
ricotzmarcustomlinson, kenvandine, is gnome-3-32 still getting updates?, I kind of retired the corresponding vala 0.44 branch15:00
kenvandinericotz: not really...15:00
kenvandinericotz: but i am rebuilding it for USN notices15:00
ricotzkenvandine, ok15:00
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: oh are we duplicating work?15:01
kenvandinelol15:01
kenvandinemaybe :)15:01
ricotzkenvandine, when is this happening?15:01
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: I've just finished building them15:01
kenvandineawesome15:01
kenvandineon LP?15:01
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: 3-32 that is15:01
marcustomlinsonhttps://launchpad.net/~marcustomlinson/+snap/gnome-3-32-1804-sdk15:01
marcustomlinsonand almost done https://launchpad.net/~marcustomlinson/+snap/gnome-3-32-180415:01
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: remember for 3-32 I use personal builders so that I can automate the process plus build my test snaps etc15:03
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: Would you like me to take over the 3-34 USNs too?15:08
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: I've updated the 3-34 platform snap to pull the sdk from candidate now15:16
Laneyseb128: ricotz: You need to add it as a test depends currently since britney doesn't understand how to expand @builddeps@15:22
LaneyI spoke with elbrus about that a few months ago, no opposition IIRC but just needs doing15:23
seb128Laney, thx for confirming15:27
seb128ricotz, want to report that to debian/Jussi?15:28
kenvandinemarcustomlinson: you can keep doing those :)15:28
seb128(adding valac as an explicit test depends)15:28
seb128(might be worth adding some others as well to the list there)15:28
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: I'm asking shall I do the 3-34 as well as 3-32 USNs going forward. If so, add me to those cards please :)15:28
kenvandineyes please15:29
kenvandineactually... maybe it would be easier for me to do it15:29
kenvandinesince you can't trigger builds directly15:29
marcustomlinsonI would move them over to my personal namespace15:29
marcustomlinsonI mean just the builder15:29
LaneyI guess you would do that here: https://salsa.debian.org/release-team/britney2/blob/master/britney2/policies/autopkgtest.py#L151 and it wouldn't be toooooo hard15:30
kenvandinemarcustomlinson: i'll handle 3-3415:30
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: ok, could you update these to push to candidate instead of edge: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/+snap/gnome-3-34-1804-sdk & https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/+snap/gnome-3-34-180415:31
kenvandinesure15:31
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: then the process is just: build the sdk, then build the platform, then promote both from candidate15:31
marcustomlinsonkenvandine: ideally we'd have some test snaps to build too. I have a server that listens on the sdk build webhook then triggers the platform and test snaps15:32
ricotzLaney, seb128, I guess fixing britney would be a proper way instead of touching several packages?15:33
marcustomlinsonbut of course on my personal builders as I don't have upload rights to ubuntu15:33
Laneyricotz: indeed, but only theoretical until someone does it :P15:33
kenvandinemarcustomlinson: would be nice to juju that build and get it into IS :)15:34

=== heather1 is now known as hellsworth
hellsworthkenvandine: thanks for the testing on drawing. it's a good find for sure and you gave me some places to start :)22:16
amurrayseb128: cheers - am rebuilding gnome-software now and will report back via the bug22:52
hellsworthkenvandine: when you tested with gnome-3-28 extension, did you remove all of the plugs and desktop-gnome-platform part?23:30
hellsworthtest#1: your drawing repo as is builds fine. (using gnome-3-32 stuff).23:33
hellsworthtest#2: i removed all of the plugs but left the desktop-gnome-platform part (for usage of the buildenv) and I updated all 3-32 mentions to 3-34 mentions (https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/5HdSHGkJKT/). the error I get is that i'm not in a git repo: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wYsnJTjHcB/23:36
hellsworthtest#3: comment out the whole desktop-gnome-platofrm part and just move the build env section to the drawing part (https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/TwnckfSZKd/) and it fails to run git as you reported (https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/28vT2scWbR/)23:39
hellsworthso i wonder if there are a couple of issues going on: 1) related to the buildenv and 2) something else :)23:41
hellsworthi'll investigate a bit more tomorrow.23:41
