[13:23] <tarzeau> i run python and i get Command 'python' not found, but can be installed with: stuff
[13:23] <tarzeau> why is there no more /usr/bin/python ?
[13:24] <oerheks> i think python2 is out, python3 is current?
[13:25] <tarzeau> yes but i want /usr/bin/python
[13:25] <tarzeau> oerheks: i didn't ask for python2, anywhere, or did i?
[13:25] <lotuspsychje> there was that python3 bug recently right
[13:26] <tarzeau> in python3-minimal ?
[13:26] <tarzeau> sid is fine, but focal is broken
[13:26] <lotuspsychje> lemme look it up
[13:27] <lotuspsychje> not sure if its related tarzeau but, bug #1862928
[13:28] <lotuspsychje> maybe they gotten things straight yet with python
[13:28] <lotuspsychje> not yet
[13:37]  * tarzeau looks bugs through of python3-defaults and python2-defaults
[13:37] <tarzeau> err python-defaults
[13:37] <tarzeau> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-defaults/+bug/1862537
[13:38] <tarzeau> that's the one! LIKE IT!
[14:56] <diddledan> also see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python3-defaults/+bug/1863532
[15:25] <lotuspsychje> tarzeau: ^
[15:30] <tarzeau> great hoping for a fix
[15:40] <lotuspsychje> confirmed & affected
[15:40] <trippeh> AV1 codec video decoding is not working too well in 20.04 - ffmpeg is built only against libaom which is just too slow. dav1d would be a better option for playback, and is supported in ffmpeg 4.2+ upstream (but not enabled in focal)
[15:40] <trippeh> I have a Ryzen 3700x and even a 1080p 25fps video is too much for libaom on it.
[15:40] <lotuspsychje> trippeh: want us to test something? you got a bug for it?
[15:41] <trippeh> I probably should write up a bug for it, yes :)
[15:42] <lotuspsychje> trippeh: before you do, could you explain a bit more what does what
[15:43] <trippeh> libaom -> AV1 video implementation. it is basically the research implementation for AV1. it is good but very, very slow.
[15:44] <trippeh> dav1d is a much faster implementation, that is now used by web browsers and the like, developed by VideoLAN
[15:45] <trippeh> ffmpeg gained support for it in ffmpeg 4.2, but it is not enabled in Ubuntu, as far as I can tell
[15:46] <lotuspsychje> !info ffmpeg
[15:49] <trippeh> ffmpeg (the libraries it provides) is also used by a bunch of media players.
[15:56] <trippeh> sorry, work is requiring my attention. will get back to this later
[16:04] <trippeh> (quick note: I suppose not much will happen until this debian ITP bug is resolved: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=916333"
[16:20] <lotuspsychje> trippeh: there's a dav1d snap
