pieqhi!02:37
pieqduflu, hey! I saw you market https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1866194 as a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1850766, but I'd argue it's not (I added a comment to explain)02:38
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1850766 in pulseaudio (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1866194 Bluetooth headset selected as default sound output, yet sound outputs to laptop speakers" [Undecided,Confirmed]02:38
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1850766 in pulseaudio (Ubuntu) "Bluetooth headset selected as default sound output, yet sound outputs to laptop speakers" [Undecided,Confirmed]02:38
duflupieq, no problem. Just looked like a common mistake02:38
dufluMany people log the same bug multiple times, including me02:39
pieqduflu, yeah, so many things happen and I felt a bit dumb reading my own prose from October :) But I can confirm it's not the same02:39
sarnoldpieq: heh, I'm glad I'm not the only one who dislikes my old bug reports :)02:40
duflupieq, OK. Just try to make them sound more different and confirm both bugs are still active02:40
pieqBy the way, I tried what OsOmOn did for the other bug (removing pulseaudio and reinstalling it) but it didn't fix the issue02:40
duflupieq, if you get in quick the bugs might get immediate attention by going on this list: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/issues/73304:21
gitbotPulseAudio issue 733 in pulseaudio "[TRACKER] PulseAudio 14.0 release blockers" [Opened]04:21
dufluSo remember to upstream the bug reports04:21
pieqduflu, argh, I have to upstream it...04:30
pieqduflu, what do you mean by "quick"? :)04:30
pieqduflu, https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/issues/83204:47
gitbotPulseAudio issue 832 in pulseaudio "[Dell Inspiron 7370] shows up in the sound output options but the sound keeps being emitted from the internal laptop speaker" [Opened]04:47
pieqduflu, thanks for the reminder! I got caught in other tasks and didn't find the time to upstream this issue04:47
duflupieq, quick meaning we are waiting for upstream release 14.0 but they still seem to be prioritising bug fixes before tagging it04:48
pieqduflu, OK, got it. I hope my bug report is clear enough. I linked to the LP issue anyway04:50
duflupieq, yeah thanks. Please do the same for the other bug too04:51
tjaaltongnome-shell crashes every time I resume from suspend.. is this known?04:51
duflutjaalton, not known by that scenario, but probably a known stack trace....04:51
tjaaltonwell, there's always a package that's too old to actually file it..04:51
tjaaltonit's become a morning ritual to see the popup failing to file it, and then installing all updates :)04:52
duflutjaalton, can you update the system, removed the .uploaded and then resubmit the crash report?04:53
duflu-d04:53
tjaaltonguess I need to reproduce it after installing the updates04:53
tjaaltonor that04:53
tjaaltonyeah it just needed a lockscreen, then hitting a key crashes gnome-shell, which is kinda a security issue too04:58
dufluI wonder if Xorg catching its own crashes ever reduces the likelihood of a clean core dump and crash report04:59
tjaaltoncould be05:04
tjaaltonok so I think it submitted the crash, how do I discover it?05:04
tjaaltonah, 4e9abd64-6d8c-11ea-a78a-fa163ee63de605:04
tjaaltonin .uploaded05:05
duflutjaalton, all I can see for sure is:  maalis 24 06:59:10 leon gnome-shell[149767]: st_widget_remove_accessible_state: assertion 'ST_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed05:09
dufluand no existing reports of that anywhere05:09
dufluat least not in the top 10005:11
duflutjaalton, got extensions?05:12
tjaaltonworkspace matrix05:12
tjaaltoncan't live without it :)05:12
duflutjaalton, well hopefully it's not related. Though if you can reproduce the crash easily you really should test without the extension installed05:17
dufluBecause I can't find any crash reports matching that extension failure. It's at least rare05:17
dufluor reliably corrupted and never reports cleanly05:18
tjaaltonyeah I'll try without05:18
dufluerm, matching that assertion failure05:20
tjaaltonstill happens after disabling matrix05:21
duflutjaalton, try uninstalling. Disabling extensions is a lie05:21
tjaaltonthe only other extension that's enabled is ubuntu dock05:21
tjaaltonhum ok05:21
tjaaltonno change05:23
dufluThere's *probably* an error page for this. Just not in the top 100 so I don't know how to find it05:23
dufluWeird. No crash signature makes no sense if it's a "clean" assertion failure05:24
duflutjaalton, if you want you can create a bug and just mention:  maalis 24 06:59:10 leon gnome-shell[149767]: st_widget_remove_accessible_state: assertion 'ST_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed05:25
tjaaltonok05:26
tjaaltonstill happens after a logout05:26
tjaaltonpieq: btw I'm affected by the same bluetooth bug05:27
tjaaltonduflu: also, I'm seeing this on another machine too05:45
tjaaltonpieq: looking at those bugs, it's 1850766 that doesn't happen anymore in focal, the behaviour changed to what's on the other bug. I saw the older bug with 19.10 and now the new one on focal05:56
tjaaltonso, I guess the old one could be closed?05:56
tjaaltondoubt it's getting fixed in eoan anymore05:56
pieqtjaalton, ah, the mysteries of pulseaudio...06:01
tjaaltonyeah it's quite frustrating, especially with bt..06:02
pieqFrom what I can gather, there seem to have a lot of regressions going on with pulseaudio. It's really hard to have a model that works on all kinds of configuration, for sure. Maybe we could help if we had some kind of tests we could run on our infra.06:02
oSoMoNgood morning desktoppers06:37
dufluMorning oSoMoN06:51
oSoMoNhey duflu06:51
seb128gooood morning desktopers07:07
dufluHi seb12807:12
dufluBTW, I am confused... Running plymouth manually on my focal desktop I do see messages. Don't you?07:13
dufluI can change them to anything07:13
dufluUsing spinner, which I thought was the goal07:13
dufluNevermind. Let me triage the relevant bugs and review everything Hans said07:17
oSoMoNsalut seb128, ça va?07:17
dufluAlso there are crashes in plymouth. Those won't be helping07:19
seb128hey duflu, oSoMoN, how are you?07:20
seb128duflu, segfault? that's worth reporting upstream07:21
dufluseb128, apparently we have a number of them so looking at those too07:21
oSoMoNI'm good07:21
seb128duflu, and yeah, messages seem to display following the steps I emailed you. I also though that was not implemented/the goal, I'm confused now on why e.g the liveCD messages don't display then07:22
dufluAnd Launchpad is timing out. So I will go water some plants and then try again07:22
seb128duflu, also fsck doesn't display anything for me when I create a /forcefsck even with the ubuntu theme, unsure if that's because the check is too short on my ssd or if that regression before the theme change07:23
seb128tjaalton, hey, should we sync the new libinput point version from Debian?07:30
tjaaltonseb128: yep07:35
tjaaltondone07:35
seb128tjaalton, thanks07:36
pieqsalut seb128 et oSoMoN !07:37
seb128lut pieq, comment ça va ? (brb, reconnecting using the vpn)07:37
didrocksgood morning07:38
dufluseb128, yeah that's what I've been saying. Got no way to reproduce or test the fsck problem07:40
dufluIf it exists at all07:40
dufluMorning didrocks07:40
didrockshey duflu07:40
oSoMoNsalut pieq, salut didrocks07:40
seb128lut didrocks, comment ça va ?07:41
seb128duflu, maybe worth checking the liveCD case/problem first instead07:41
dufluYes. Still triaging07:41
pieqseb128, ça va ! Spending way more time that I'd like trying to understand binary e-mail attachments in a Python script... :)07:42
didrockssalut oSoMoN, seb128, ça va, et vous ?07:42
seb128didrocks, ça va ici07:43
pieqoSoMoN, I saw your answer on lp:1850766 and was hopeful it would work for my other problem (lp:1866194) but no :(07:43
pieqoSoMoN, I tried to remove pulseaudio and reinstall it, but #1866194 is still here, so I filed an upstream bug07:44
seb128oSoMoN, Trevinho, so I don't know why the mozilla urls don't work from the script on people07:44
seb128the log has07:44
seb128Unable to open URL: https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/, None07:44
seb128same for TB07:44
seb128but with the same proxy env doing a wget of the URL works07:45
oSoMoNweird07:45
oSoMoNpieq, sounds like a different issue than the one I was experiencing then07:46
oSoMoNnow that I think about it, I recall experiencing something similar in a past development cycle (but I can't remember if it was disco->eoan, or an earlier one): a pulseaudio upgrade broke my bluetooth, downgrading and then upgrading again fixed it07:48
dufluThe most recent big Bluetooth audio fix mostly only affected Sony headphones. So it's important and useful to log your own bug detailing what you're using07:49
pieqoSoMoN, yes it is07:51
seb128oSoMoN,07:51
seb128>>> urllib.urlopen('https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/').readlines()07:51
seb128...07:51
seb128... '<title>ERROR: The requested URL could not be retrieved</title>\n',...07:51
seb128but curl / wget on the same url works :/07:51
seb128oSoMoN, it's on people.canonical.com if you want to try yourself07:52
pieqseb128, I'm guessing Mozilla server filters by user agent07:52
seb128pieq, why would they allow wget/curl and not python urllib?07:53
pieqseb128, good question :)07:54
oSoMoNnah, the same urlopen call works here locally07:54
oSoMoNit seems to hang when I issue it from people.c.c07:54
seb128indeed, that as well07:55
seb128oSoMoN, you need to use the proxy, cf my /msg07:56
oSoMoNyeah, now I'm seeing the same proxy error page07:57
oSoMoN"Unsupported Request Method and Protocol"07:58
oSoMoNseb128, works with s/https/http/07:59
seb128right07:59
seb128I was typing the same thing07:59
seb128which is weird, we have other https urls in there and they work fine08:00
seb128oh, well, not worth spending time on that, let's just change those urls to be http08:02
seb128oSoMoN, do you want to do it or should I?08:02
seb128mozjs ones are in the same case08:02
oSoMoNyeah, and I'm not seeing anything suspicious when monitoring network traffic with chrome devtools when fetching the same https URL in chromium08:02
oSoMoNseb128, IIRC I can't push directly to the branch, so you might as well want to do it yourself?08:03
seb128oSoMoN, k08:04
seb128wooot, ICU migrated08:07
seb128\o/08:07
seb128Laney, Trevinho, ^08:07
dufluseb128, any idea what package sends the media removal message etc to plymouth?08:10
seb128oSoMoN, I found some posts thazt say urlopen isn't greazt with proxy and using request works better, I might poke a bit with that08:11
seb128ursing08:11
seb128>>> import urllib208:11
seb128>>> req = urllib2.Request('https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/')08:11
seb128>>> response = urllib2.urlopen(req)08:11
seb128urllib2.URLError: <urlopen error [Errno 1] _ssl.c:504: error:14077410:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:sslv3 alert handshake failure>08:11
seb128duflu, casper08:11
dufluTa08:11
GunnarHjGood morning seb128!08:12
GunnarHjseb128: Do you have acces to remove glib2.0 from disco-proposed? (interrupted SRU due to EOL)08:12
seb128duflu, I poke at uploads yesterday http://launchpadlibrarian.net/40863725/casper_1.226_1.227.diff.gz has the diff for md5sum messages08:12
seb128but yeah, just look at the plymouth calls in the source, easier08:12
seb128GunnarHj, hey, how are you?08:12
GunnarHjI'm fine. Hope you are as well.08:12
seb128GunnarHj, I wouldn't bother about cleaning disco proposed, but ask on #ubuntu-release if you care enough08:12
seb128I'm good yes, thanks08:13
seb128sorry, need to step out from the keyboard for a bit08:13
GunnarHjseb128: I you don't think it's worth it, I don't either.08:13

* seb128 emailed mterry with some questions about deja-dup/pydrive and got a reply overnight, nice to see he's still around :-)09:16
seb128desktopers, did anyone see the plymouth/fsck integration in recent cycles?09:20
seb128following the regression report for the new theme I tried on focal with the ubuntu-logo plymouth theme and by creating a /forcefsck09:20
Wimpressseb128: No09:21
WimpressI've had spinner enabled for a few months.09:21
seb128but I don't see anything on plymouth. I wonder if that's because my ssd doesn't take long enough to check09:21
seb128or if that regressed before the theme change09:21
WimpressI have seen fsck in a testing VM, but it was text based console output.09:21
seb128d_uflu also said he couldn't see those message in 19.10 either09:21
seb128Wimpress, and in 19.10?09:21
seb128I don't remember having seen those for ages09:22
WimpressI didn't test it in 19.10 long enough to encounter that.09:22
WimpressHangon.09:22
seb128'it'?09:22
seb128I meant plymouth before the theme change09:22
WimpressYou're asking if the fsck output was visible in the old Plymouth theme?09:22
seb128I wonder if the fsck integration regressed before plymouth changed09:22
seb128yes09:22
seb128I can't see it by switching back the theme and foccing a fsck09:22
seb128but I don't know if it's just that the ssd check on that machine is too short to even display something09:23
WimpressWell, in the old theme I see the iso integrity check in the live session, but not with the spinner theme.09:23
seb128right09:23
seb128that's another topic09:23
WimpressAh, OK.09:23
seb128as said I can't see fsck even by going back to ubuntu-logo09:23
seb128Wimpress, basically09:24
seb128$ sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth09:24
WimpressOK, I'll get some testing on that.09:24
seb128pick ubuntu-logo09:24
seb128create /forcefsck09:24
WimpressSee if I can confirm.09:24
seb128reboot09:24
seb128thanks09:24
dufluseb128, funny story: I can't start plymouthd anymore because it claims to be running when it's not. Have you seen that?09:26
dufluEven removing the /run/plymouth doesn't help09:26
seb128duflu, no09:26
seb128does sudo plymouth quit helps?09:27
seb128if not I guess reboot :/09:27
Wimpressseb128: #1853830 is now an FFe09:27
seb128Wimpress, great09:27
WimpressI've subbed ubuntu-release09:27
dufluseb128, yes thanks. That removed *something*09:27
seb128np!09:27
seb128duflu, sorry to have throwed you under that plymouth bus, I though it would be a more obvious 'theme doesn't handle text message' problem, turns out it's not that and that it's not easy to get into a situation to trigger / be able to easily test and iterate on the problems :(09:28
dufluseb128, I just can't get a shell at all to debug it. The system even kills ssh logins before it happens09:29
seb128duflu, I will try to get some help on how to debug those issues during my day, you should probably stop there for today, it's too late in the day to start on figuring out even how to set up debugging09:31
dufluI might try one of the other plymouth bugs I do suffer from myself. Especially since I'm not the only one and frankly those are more common than the messages bugs09:32
RAOFseb128: oh, have I mentioned that the seamless Plymouth theme now *works* on the laptop it wasn't in Cape Town?09:34
seb128RAOF, no you didn't, but good to know since I did some fixing in Frankfurt and meant to ask you if that made a difference (and sorry I didn't found a slot to come back to you to have a look in real there)09:35
seb128duflu, makes sense09:35
RAOFEh, no problem. Since you got it to work now anyway we didn't really need to go over it in Frankfurt 😀09:38
jphilipshi all. after going through popey's bug reporting video, i felt ubuntu should have an easier means to report a bug without opening the terminal, so i was pondering on how such a gui app should work and after some digging into what is available available on the install iso, i see we already have such a GUI, but need to make it easily accessible in the application menu12:03
jphilipsi would like to suggest we add a .desktop file to run `ubuntu-bug -w`12:03
popeyubuntu-bug, yes. I don't know why it doesn't have a desktop file12:03
popeymaybe jibel knows12:03
seb128not sure that's a good idea, it would encourage users who don't really know what they are doing to send poor quality reports to launchpad...12:05

oSoMoNgood morning kenvandine13:27
hellsworthhi oSoMoN !13:27
jibelI agree with seb128. Users who want to report bugs find how to do it and there is pretty good documentation on the wiki that explain how.13:54
jphilipsexpecting people to load up the live ISO and then go to the wiki to find documentation on how to report a bug isnt good UX13:55
jphilipswhy not only let devs report bugs as only they can report good ones13:56
jphilipswe ask regular users to contribute by trying out our testcases, but they say 'we arent going to make it easy for you to report bugs' isnt logical13:58
cpaelzerhiho desktop people, does the VTE change I identified in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vte2.91/+bug/1868116 ring any bell?14:01
ograwe used to have the predecessor of ubuntu-bug hooked into the help menu of each and every app ... that resulted in tons of "i dont like the color if the icon" or similar pointless bugs ... its a two edged sword and you need to find a balance between making it too easy and making it too hard to still get useful reports and nt drown in a flood of opinions an general complaints14:01
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1868116 in qemu (Ubuntu) "QEMU monitor no longer works" [High,Triaged]14:01
cpaelzerTL;DR some qemu function in focal is broken due to the new vte2.91 version that changed from iconv to ICU14:01
cpaelzerNow that I actually know what I look for I can re-search qemu logs, but if this is a known issue on the desktop side I'd appreciate if you'd let me know14:02
jphilipsogra: quite true. kde apps do the same in the help menu but the bugs go to the kde bugzilla. maybe a more sophisticated ubuntu bug reporting app needs to be created which can weed out the silly bugs before they reach launchpad14:06
seb128cpaelzer, hey, not known from our side no, sorry that a desktop update created issues for you/qemu though :-/14:11
=== didrocks999 is now known as didrocks
cpaelzerseb128: thanks for the answer14:17
cpaelzerseb128: I'll update the bug once I have rechecked qemu git14:18
cpaelzerif desktop could subscribe/watch it that would be nice14:18
cpaelzerjust in case the outcome is "please change vte"14:18
cpaelzeris that a case for champagne?14:18
seb128rls-ff-incoming rather?14:19
seb128though any would work I guess, unsure in which case one should be used if they have the same result14:19
Laneyyeah don't think it really matters14:21
didrocksseb128: btw, I remember that I created a mock fsck for systemd integration tests if you or duflu needs it to fix the new theme: it’s in debian/tests/fsck14:28

Wimpressseb128: I think the OEM team talked to you and I separately about that ^14:40
WimpressLet's review it this afternoon.14:40
tkamppeterMy part I have already done on it, we only need a core-dev for upload.14:40
WimpressOK, tkamppeter. Thanks.14:40
seb128Wimpress, I would welcome team opinion on the change14:41
seb128I'm fine doing it if we want to be estar 8 compliant, and we probably want?14:41
WimpressThe OEM power change?14:41
seb128I personally find autosuspend on ac annoying...14:41
seb128yes14:41
WimpressI agree that staying compliant with eSTAR is the right thing to do.14:42
seb128'power sleep-inactive-ac-timeout to 1200 (20 minutes) as default to meet the Power Management Requirements of Energy Star Computers Specification Version 8.0.'14:42
seb128k14:42
Laneywhat14:42
WimpressAny other desktopers have an opinion on that?14:42
seb128autosuspend on 20 min idle sucks from an user experience though14:42
WimpressYep.14:42
seb128well  I guess it depends what you use, but if you have e;g and IRC client open14:43
didrocksI don’t really like either autosuspend after 20 min when you are on AC…14:43
WimpressThe other option is the the OEM team carry their own gschema override.14:43
oSoMoNcomplying with the spec seems sensible, even if I tend to agree that autosuspend on AC isn't something I would expect14:43
didrocksI can understand the compliance regulation though14:43
Laneywhat is this spec?14:43
seb128Wimpress, I guess it's up to you to decide on whether we do that an OEM image setting or a default Ubuntu one14:43
seb128Laney, https://www.energystar.gov/products/spec/computers_version_8_0_pd14:43
WimpressNew device shipped with Ubuntu from OEMs should comply with that.14:44
Laneyfeels like a bit of a crappy default to me14:44
seb128k14:44
WimpressHence the request.14:44
seb128so I think you got the team consensus14:44
WimpressIt is a setting a would change for sure.14:44
seb128we don't like it14:44
seb128Wimpress, now your call on OEM only or not14:45
WimpressOK. I'll ask the OEM team to carry their own override.14:45

seb128Laney, I will mention to him that he shouldn't unassign himself from rls assigned bugs though15:14
Laneythx15:15
TrevinhoSo... on that g-c-c thing, I submitted a bug on upstream design https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/settings-mockups/-/issues/18 but well, I assume we can't wait for that to be fully addressed, but we have to fix this ourselves, mostly because the current view (other than ugly) makes impossible to have some drivers (i.e. godix, i.e. xps13) to do proper enrollment as they need more stages15:15
WimpressI want to preserve flicker free boot. How optimistic are we feeling about fixing it?15:15
Trevinhothan the UI can. So I think we'd need some UIFe for it.15:15
seb128Wimpress, I'm more optimistic now that I was when Dimitri raise the problems15:15
Laney7 minutes, pfft, these people are LAZY!15:16
WimpressCan you file the UIFe please Trevinho15:16
Trevinhook15:16
seb128Wimpress, it would help if someone could confirm fsck integration was/is still working with the 'old' ubuntu-logo theme15:16
seb128I'm not convinced that's a theme regression15:16
WimpressUnderstood.15:16
seb128I can't get it to work with the old theme either15:16
WimpressI will ask some community members to assist with testing.15:17
seb128also if anyone has some debugging/hacking clue on how to similate the liveCD boot mode that would be useful15:17
WimpressWhat do you mean by that?15:18
seb128Daniel didn't really manage to find a way to get a debug setup working for that it looks like15:18
seb128Wimpress, the ISO boot doing the checksum15:18
WimpressIs testing in an EFI boot VM suitable?15:18
seb128unsure if that can be emulated from an active system or something you can ssh to15:18
seb128so get debug info, poke, etc15:18
WimpressI have flicker free boot working in QEMU.15:19
seb128well it's rather being able to get a ssh prompt/command line at the time the issue is happening15:19
seb128right15:19
WimpressI see.15:19
seb128but to be able to debug why the checksum messages are not showing it would help to have a command line at that time15:19
seb128neither Daniel or I are familiar with liveCD/iso debuggign though15:19
seb128but probably not a meeting topic either15:19
Laneythere won't be network at that time15:19
WimpressSo, something to investigate them.15:21

oSoMoNricotz, I've tested bumping the python build dep for firefox to python3 (porting the few python scripts in the debian/ directory is pretty straightforward), but mach still requires python2.7 for most of its subcommands, so this ends up adding a build dependency, instead of upgrading the existing one.
