[08:39] <popey> jamesh: tried that, it doesn't work. you have to specify unity7
[08:41] <jamesh> popey: the "invalid name element" error is specifically because you included a full bus name rather than just the part after "org.mpris.MediaPlayer2."
[08:42] <popey> jamesh: that may be the case, but i definitely tried using just the short name
[08:42]  * popey re-opens the topic in case people want to discuss there :D
[08:43] <popey> https://github.com/popey/ncspot-snap/blob/master/snap/snapcraft.yaml
[08:43] <jamesh> popey: I don't see any mpris related rules in the unity7 interface though, so it is quite possible the app needed something else
[08:43] <popey> that's the working yaml
[08:43] <popey> that's possible, for sure.
[08:43] <popey> i debugged this for a couple of hours last night with Wimpress
[08:44] <jamesh> popey: the fact you're staging libxcb-* makes me think the app wants to talk to the X server
[08:44] <jamesh> so it probably needs desktop and/or x11.  I'd lean towards those rather than unity7 if possible
[08:45] <popey> desktop doesn't work
[08:45] <popey> i tried desktop and unity7 which worked, then removed desktop to prove it only needed unity7
[08:46] <jamesh> popey: desktop doesn't imply x11 access, while unity7 does
[08:46] <jamesh> one of the reasons why unity7 is deprecated
[08:46] <popey> ok, I'll try removing unity7 and add x11 instead, thanks
[08:46] <jamesh> x11 or x11+desktop would probably be better, yeah
[08:48] <jamesh> you'll probably need to provide a desktop file to keep the store happy when you publish too
[08:48] <jamesh> a NoDisplay=true one should suffice
[08:48] <didrocks> hey marcustomlinson
[08:48] <popey> ooh, i could do a desktop file which uses the terminal=true thing
[08:49] <jamesh> that'd be fine too, yeah
[08:49] <popey> thanks for the help jamesh
[09:03] <Laney> hullo
[09:04] <marcustomlinson> yo Laney
[09:07] <popey> jamesh: nope, x11 isn't enough, it only works with unity7
[09:08] <jamesh> popey: did you try desktop+x11?
[09:08] <jamesh> and what denial are you getting?
[09:08] <popey> ah, no. doing now
[09:08] <popey> no denials
[09:08] <jamesh> ideally we could delete the unity7 interface at some point
[09:10] <popey> jamesh: nope, fails with x11+desktop
[09:10] <jamesh> I wonder what it is doing?
[09:14] <popey> 🤷‍♂️
[09:17] <duflu> Hi popey, Laney, and jamesh
[09:17] <popey> hello!
[09:19] <jamesh> hi duflu
[09:34] <Laney> hey marcustomlinson hey duflu
[09:50] <didrocks> hey hey Laney
[09:53] <dan01> Hi, sort of did this experiment before but... anyways
[09:54] <dan01> Can 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 fine
[09:54] <dan01> I've tried everything, fractional scaling, increase font size in gnome-tweak
[09:54] <dan01> I don't know what to do anymore
[09:55] <dan01> And I can't understand how come none else seems to have this problem
[09:55] <Laney> hey didrocks
[09:55] <dan01> I'm using a 14' 1080p lenovo ideapad s540 iwl
[10:00] <dan01> hmm, mabybe I'll try #ubuntu
[10:00] <Laney> dan01: only got 2× hidpi here, sorry
[10:00] <Laney> not really heard this specific complaint before tbh
[10:00] <dan01> Laney: sure, np
[10:00] <Laney> have seen some odd people deliberately running at less than 2×
[10:00] <dan01> Laney: yeah, everyone seems to be doing fine, but I've asked other people as well and they notice the difference
[10:01] <Laney> hmm
[10:01] <Laney> changing the subject (sorry)
[10:01] <Laney> desktop iso failed to build
[10:01] <Laney> The following packages have unmet dependencies: libpoppler90 : Depends: libopenjp2-7 (>= 2.0.0) but it is not installable
[10:02] <Laney> wwwwwwat is dat
[10:13] <Laney> can't tell, guess I will retry a build
[10:47] <Laney> yup, that worked
[10:48] <Laney> happy iso-with-new-yaru day
[11:04] <marcustomlinson> \o/
[14:25] <RikMills> tkamppeter: hi, do you have a fix for ghostscript ppc64el FTBFS before the weekend?
[15:11] <tkamppeter> RikMills, I am working with doko on it. It is bug 1862053
[15:11] <ubot5> bug 1862053 in gcc (Ubuntu) "Compiler gets stuck (or extremely slow) on ppc64el" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1862053
[15:13] <RikMills> ouch!
[15:58] <hellsworth> good morning desktopers!
[15:58] <oSoMoN> good morning hellsworth
[15:58] <marcustomlinson> hey hellsworth
[16:00] <hellsworth> hi oSoMoN and marcustomlinson
[16:30] <Laney> pkill -f mutt is a bad idea

[16:33] <mdeslaur> hehe
[16:43] <hellsworth> fyi, i'll be afk for the rest of the day while trying to get over a nasty cold
[16:58] <oSoMoN> hellsworth, get better soon!
[16:58] <gQuigs> any thoughts on Flash for 20.04 - I think would drop it before release?   https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-20-04-and-flash/13814
[17:00]  * 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 archive
[17:07] <oSoMoN> gQuigs, chrisccoulson probably has thoughts on this
=== ginggs_ is now known as ginggs
[18:27] <tkamppeter> RikMills, I have applied a workaround to Ghostscript now, so that it will build on ppc64el, see bug 1862053.

[18:31] <RikMills> tkamppeter: great :)
[18:33] <marcustomlinson> nie work tkamppeter
[18:33] <marcustomlinson> *nice
[18:42] <oSoMoN> have a good week-end everyone!
[18:51] <doko> tkamppeter, RikMills: as I said to Till, it's not my first priority, I need to fix other things first
[18:51] <tkamppeter> And now it built on ppc64el:
[18:51] <tkamppeter> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghostscript/9.50~dfsg-5ubuntu1
[18:52] <RikMills> great. that should let me build a couple of things on ppc64el that broke due to ghostscript. thanks :)
[18:53] <RikMills> and I think should unbreak libreoffice build....
