jameshpopey: for that snap mpris question you closed on the forum, you probably just want "name: ncspot" in the slot definition03:39

popeyjamesh: tried that, it doesn't work. you have to specify unity708:39
jameshpopey: the "invalid name element" error is specifically because you included a full bus name rather than just the part after "org.mpris.MediaPlayer2."08:41
popeyjamesh: that may be the case, but i definitely tried using just the short name08:42
* popey re-opens the topic in case people want to discuss there :D08:42
popeyhttps://github.com/popey/ncspot-snap/blob/master/snap/snapcraft.yaml08:43
jameshpopey: I don't see any mpris related rules in the unity7 interface though, so it is quite possible the app needed something else08:43
popeythat's the working yaml08:43
popeythat's possible, for sure.08:43
popeyi debugged this for a couple of hours last night with Wimpress08:43
jameshpopey: the fact you're staging libxcb-* makes me think the app wants to talk to the X server08:44
jameshso it probably needs desktop and/or x11.  I'd lean towards those rather than unity7 if possible08:44
popeydesktop doesn't work08:45
popeyi tried desktop and unity7 which worked, then removed desktop to prove it only needed unity708:45
jameshpopey: desktop doesn't imply x11 access, while unity7 does08:46
jameshone of the reasons why unity7 is deprecated08:46
popeyok, I'll try removing unity7 and add x11 instead, thanks08:46
jameshx11 or x11+desktop would probably be better, yeah08:46
jameshyou'll probably need to provide a desktop file to keep the store happy when you publish too08:48
jamesha NoDisplay=true one should suffice08:48
didrockshey marcustomlinson08:48
popeyooh, i could do a desktop file which uses the terminal=true thing08:48
jameshthat'd be fine too, yeah08:49
popeythanks for the help jamesh08:49
Laneyhullo09:03
marcustomlinsonyo Laney09:04
popeyjamesh: nope, x11 isn't enough, it only works with unity709:07
jameshpopey: did you try desktop+x11?09:08
jameshand what denial are you getting?09:08
popeyah, no. doing now09:08
popeyno denials09:08
jameshideally we could delete the unity7 interface at some point09:08
popeyjamesh: nope, fails with x11+desktop09:10
jameshI wonder what it is doing?09:10
popey🤷‍♂️09:14

dan01Hi, sort of did this experiment before but... anyways09:53
dan01Can anyone here using Ubuntu on a 1080p laptop give me a screenshot of their desktop. Regardless of Gnome or Kde, wayland or X. Ubuntu or Fedora. Linux looks a bit to small on my Ideapad screen, while Windows looks just fine09:54
dan01I've tried everything, fractional scaling, increase font size in gnome-tweak09:54
dan01I don't know what to do anymore09:54
dan01And I can't understand how come none else seems to have this problem09:55
Laneyhey didrocks09:55
dan01I'm using a 14' 1080p lenovo ideapad s540 iwl09:55
dan01hmm, mabybe I'll try #ubuntu10:00
Laneydan01: only got 2× hidpi here, sorry10:00
Laneynot really heard this specific complaint before tbh10:00
dan01Laney: sure, np10:00
Laneyhave seen some odd people deliberately running at less than 2×10:00
dan01Laney: yeah, everyone seems to be doing fine, but I've asked other people as well and they notice the difference10:00
Laneyhmm10:01
Laneychanging the subject (sorry)10:01
Laneydesktop iso failed to build10:01
LaneyThe following packages have unmet dependencies: libpoppler90 : Depends: libopenjp2-7 (>= 2.0.0) but it is not installable10:01

Laneycan't tell, guess I will retry a build10:13
Laneyyup, that worked10:47

RikMillstkamppeter: hi, do you have a fix for ghostscript ppc64el FTBFS before the weekend?14:25
tkamppeterRikMills, I am working with doko on it. It is bug 186205315:11

gQuigsany thoughts on Flash for 20.04 - I think would drop it before release?   https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-20-04-and-flash/1381416:58
* gQuigs tries again - I think it makes sense to drop before 20.04 releases - otherwise after 6 months we have dead packages in both multiverse and the Canonical archive17:00
oSoMoNgQuigs, chrisccoulson probably has thoughts on this17:07

tkamppeterRikMills, I have applied a workaround to Ghostscript now, so that it will build on ppc64el, see bug 1862053.18:27

dokotkamppeter, RikMills: as I said to Till, it's not my first priority, I need to fix other things first18:51
tkamppeterAnd now it built on ppc64el:18:51
tkamppeterhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghostscript/9.50~dfsg-5ubuntu118:51
RikMillsgreat. that should let me build a couple of things on ppc64el that broke due to ghostscript. thanks :)18:52
RikMillsand I think should unbreak libreoffice build....18:53
