pieqHello everyone!06:16
pieqI noticed a refugar "+1 maintenance report" on the ubuntu-devel mailing list, but I'm not sure what it's all about exactly. Is there a Wiki page or something to explain it?06:17

oSoMoNgood morning seb128, didrocks, pieq, ricotz, marcustomlinson 07:16
oSoMoNricotz, I didn't file that bug, but I discussed the problem with other ubuntu devs, and the consensus was not to try backporting, instead we should distro-patch firefox to build with python 3.507:17
didrockshey marcustomlinson, oSoMoN 07:17
ricotzoSoMoN, ack07:23
seb128ricotz, a bit tired but alright, I'm also looking forward some extra rest in the weekend :)07:39

seb128kenvandine, do we have any process to flag snapd issues we might consider important/that need debugging?13:34
seb128kenvandine, bug #1858636 sounds like one of those, comment #34 sounds interesting13:34
ubot5bug 1858636 in chromium-browser (Ubuntu) "snapd generates incomplete fontconfig caches, result in emoji rendering issue in chromium" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/185863613:34
seb128or #29 rather13:35
* kenvandine looks13:35
seb128the cache generated by snapd lacks NotoColorEmoji.ttf comapred to the one done by deb triggers13:35
seb128kenvandine, note that duflu wrote in there that it breaks chrome (deb) for him, so it's not a problem with use of snaps but rather snapd which doesn't generate a cache properly matching which is available13:38
seb128fontconfig keeps being a fun topic :/13:38
kenvandineseb128: indeed... no fun at all13:40
kenvandinechromium isn't using the platform snap and doesn't include NotoColorEmoji.ttf in the snap13:41
seb128kenvandine, it's not about chromium, read what I just wrote on the channel13:41
kenvandineyeah13:41
kenvandinei did13:41
seb128snapd overwrite the /var/cache/fontconfig/ cache right?13:42
kenvandinei didn't think that was the case13:42
kenvandinebut it must be13:42
seb128seems like it does it in a way which is buggy and as a result even debs are buggy13:42
seb128if it doesn't then the comments don't make sense13:42
kenvandineright13:42
kenvandineit is very interesting13:43
kenvandinemy most recently modified cache files end in cache-613:43
seb128is there a way to force the snapd cache refresh to see what it gives?13:43
kenvandinethe older ones are cache-713:43
kenvandinethat would be a question for mvo13:43
kenvandineseb128: i think  you are right...13:45
seb128kenvandine, I tagged it rls-ff-incoming, I don't think anyone owning snapd follows that process though, what's the right way to raise the issue to the snap team?13:50
seb128oSoMoN, ^ fyi13:50
seb128kenvandine, I confirmed by doing 13:55
seb128$ rm /var/cache/fontconfig13:56
seb128$ snap refresh --edge core13:56
seb128$ fc-cat /var/cache/fontconfig/* | grep NotoColorE13:56
seb128-> not mention13:56
seb128$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig13:56
seb128$ fc-cat /var/cache/fontconfig/* | grep NotoColorE13:56
seb128-> things listed13:57
kenvandineplease add that to the bug report13:57
kenvandineand i'll make sure they see it13:57
oSoMoNseb128, ack, thanks for raising it13:59

ubot5Ubuntu bug 1858636 in chromium-browser (Ubuntu) "snapd generates incomplete fontconfig caches, result in emoji rendering issue in chromium" [Medium,Confirmed]13:59
oSoMoNit's a funny and tricky bug, and mgedmin did a very good job of investigating it in depth14:00
seb128indeed14:00
seb128nice that we made a step forward14:01
kenvandineindeed14:01
kenvandinethis is pretty bad14:01
seb128it's annoying and had regular comments14:01
oSoMoNkenvandine, seen that?  https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/firefox-snap-77-cannot-download-anything/1816714:45
kenvandineoSoMoN: thank, i hadn't seen that14:56
kenvandineoSoMoN: i don't think they really meant download, it was save14:57
kenvandinedownloads shouldn't touch the portals14:57
kenvandinebut it does want portals for the file chooser14:57
oSoMoNyes15:05
oSoMoNwell by default firefox always prompts the user where to save a downloaded file15:06
oSoMoNso the file chooser is invoked, unless the user has ticked a checkbox to always perform the same action15:07
kenvandineoh it does?15:09
kenvandinehmm15:09
kenvandineif he's really running bionic he should have had the portal packages too15:09
kenvandinewhich is weird15:09

kenvandineoSoMoN: i've confirmed downloads work fine on stock 18.0417:24
kenvandineoSoMoN: however... save as does not17:24
kenvandinei've reproduced the same denial17:24
kenvandineit's being denied by snapd17:24
oSoMoNso the problem is valid, although incorrectly worded17:25
kenvandineyeah17:25
kenvandineoSoMoN, interestingly i reproduced it on stock 18.04.4, then on fully updated 18.04.4 (including latest core from stable) which has snapd 2.45 17:38
kenvandinei installed snapd 2.45.1 and it worked17:38
