=== brainwash_ is now known as brainwash === lynn is now known as gryphon [07:14] DarkTrick, have you reported bug reports for these? [08:24] knome, @freecad, yes, @menu doing it now [08:24] general question: is it usual, that this release is rather unstable? [08:24] I can't even use vlc player anymore -> seg fault on video playback [08:27] knome, what package is the menu? I thought xfce4-popup-whiskermenu, but ubuntu-bug says it's not installed [08:27] so probably it's something else... [09:15] DarkTrick: xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin [09:26] brainwash, thank you. [09:28] Curious, did you try newer whiskermenus? [09:28] Unit193, no, just upgraded [09:29] which is the latest version? [09:29] 2.4.6 [09:30] 2.4.3 here [09:30] probably just a matter of updating repos [09:30] probably -> maybe [09:31] what is the problem/bug? [09:32] brainwash, bug after upgrade 19.10 -> 20.04 @ application menu: (1) open menu (2) search something (eg "office") (3) press arrow-down key (4) actual: nothing happens, expected: select first entry of menu [09:32] I think that was fixed [09:32] or at least it was reported already [09:33] https://gitlab.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin/-/issues/8 [09:33] Issue 8 in panel-plugins/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin "First down arrow key press after search ignored" [Closed] [09:33] fixed a week ago [09:33] Groovy has 2.4.5 [09:34] hm.. [09:34] I haven't yet backported to the PPA, was waiting for .6. I can do that now though... [09:34] is it worth then to open an "update-repo" request on launchpad? [09:35] Unit193, I'm not sure what your last message means. [09:35] that will fix the bug within the ubuntu repos? [09:36] DarkTrick: Xubuntu team has a PPA that backports 4.14.x and panel plugins/etc. non-development releases that go to Groovy. I haven't yet updated whiskermenu in there, and was stating that I could do so (I noted I was waiting until .6 was uploaded to groovy) [09:38] groovy = 20.10, focal = 20.04, I guess [09:38] That mean, hopefully the bug is fixed with 20.10 after you backported [09:38] (let me know if I'm wrong :) ) [09:39] Yeah groovy is development, backport would be to the PPA for focal. [09:39] :) [09:41] sorry, just to make sure: After the backport it will be in ubuntu repos and shared via general system update? [09:41] Nope. [09:42] so I'd file a "update package"-report on launchpad... [09:42] !sru [09:42] Stable Release Update information is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates [09:42] read this [09:44] I'm aware, that only special things get fixed. But 20.04 is going to be an LTS release... I think a bug in that place is pretty,pretty naster for UX [09:45] is that the case? I mean did anyone report the bug on launchpad yet? [09:45] well, the LTS is not out yet. I wanted to report it right after figuring it out. [09:46] it has been out since April [09:46] and there is https://gitlab.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin/-/issues/8 [09:46] Issue 8 in panel-plugins/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin "First down arrow key press after search ignored" [Closed] [09:46] so... yes? [09:52] you can try your luck with a SRU then [09:53] brainwash, is there an easy way to fix to problem for me? e.g. add the ppa of xubuntu and run a SW update? [09:54] note that this would update other packages also [09:54] :/ [09:54] maybe you don't want that [09:55] so only update the whiskermenu package [09:56] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin_2.4.5-1_amd64.deb [09:56] or try to install the groovy package [09:57] Well, note .6 says: - Fix crash during grab check. (xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin Issue #19) [09:57] Issue 19 in panel-plugins/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin "Whisker menu hotkey disappears panel icon no start menu" [Closed] https://gitlab.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin/-/issues/19 [09:58] here's an example of a SRU [09:58] bug 1886824 [09:58] Bug 1886824 in xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin (Ubuntu) "Search delay -> update to 2.4.4" [Undecided, Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1886824 [11:19] brainwash, thank you for the link [11:20] I think I'm not going the SRU [11:27] is there a (e.g.) wiki page showing the PPA you mentioned above? [11:28] I would (1) add the PPA (2) update whiskermenu only (3) deactivate PPA. As the version is higher than in official repos a sys update should not overwrite the newer version [17:00] -SwissBot:#xubuntu-devel- Reminder: Next meeting chair is knome [23:27] Hrm, last I knew I didn't have permissions to create PPAs?
