| lubot | <matkoniecz> Why Firefox autoupdates on its own? I though that it is controlled by `apt`. … But, at worst possible time, it stops allowing me to open new tabs. | 06:24 |
| guiverc | @matkoniecz, are you using the default Firefox (maintained by Ubuntu Firefox team) or snap (maintained by Mozilla themselves) | 06:55 |
| guiverc | Note: I've not noticed firefox update itself ; but it does report it should update itself automatically https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-release | 06:57 |
| guiverc | though that page implies for Linux it'll update with the package repository | 06:58 |
| lubot | <matkoniecz> @guiverc [<guiverc> @matkoniecz, are you using the default Firefox (maintained by Ubuntu F …], Whatever is installed by `apt-get` (`sudo apt-get install firefox` confirms that it is installed this way, probably from default OS config) | 06:59 |
| guiverc | mine is that too (default system install; 82.0), I don't have any helpful ideas though, i don't really notice mine upgrading.. | 07:03 |

| lubot | <matkoniecz> Usually screenshot is good, in that case photo of a screen also would be ok | 15:14 |

| krytarik | @matkoniecz, guiverc: I only get that out of nowhere since I got unattended-upgrade enabled - but I thought on Ubuntu it wasn't by default.. | 20:40 |
| wxl | actually this is by design apparently https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/9s78fh/sick_of_getting_restart_required/ | 20:50 |
| lubot | <matkoniecz> @wxl [<wxl> actually this is by design apparently https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/com …], "You can either configure your system's package manager to update manually, and then only do those updates when you're in a position to restart Firefox (or while Firefox is not actively running), or you can install the Firefox package directl | 22:09 |
| lubot | y from mozilla.org and use that rather than the distro-provided package." … I did this with apt (I think...) | 22:09 |
| wxl | unlikely. how did you do it? | 22:10 |
| lubot | <matkoniecz> Yeah, … Start menu | Preferences | Software sources | Updates | Automatic updates … was configured to automatically apply security updates. I now disabled this. | 22:11 |
| wxl | that doesn't necessarily do anything either | 22:11 |
| wxl | you could get an update not related to security | 22:11 |
| wxl | and honestly, i wouldn't turn off your security updates | 22:11 |
| wxl | the one way to ensure it never does this is to remove the firefox package and install it from mozilla.org | 22:12 |
| lubot | <matkoniecz> Other updates were already not configured to install on their own. … And I install updates quite often. | 22:12 |
| wxl | firefox is the one example of this problem | 22:12 |
| guiverc | what starts up ibus? (https://askubuntu.com/questions/1287820/japanese-input-doesnt-work-on-20-04) it doesn't look like I'd have issues on my primary box (hirsute) but a focal box I booted is as OP describes | 23:40 |
| wxl | we don't ship ibus | 23:44 |
| wxl | we use fcitx | 23:47 |
| wxl | ibus is an input method, as is fcitx | 23:48 |
| wxl | having multiple input methods is a recipe for disaster | 23:48 |
| guiverc | thanks wxl, I've responded with something using LXQt so I'll wait for a response | 23:48 |
| guiverc | I'll look some more into fcitx & an alternative.. | 23:49 |
| wxl | they want mozc i see, which the fcitx-mozc package provides | 23:49 |
| wxl | not installed by default | 23:50 |
| wxl | i could totally imagine what happened: they didn't have the input methods they wanted, searched for the answer, which suggested ibus, etc. | 23:50 |
| lubot | <N0um3n0> https://phab.lubuntu.me/T113 | 23:51 |
| wxl | right right | 23:51 |
| lubot | <N0um3n0> How to install japanese with fcitx | 23:52 |
| wxl | speaking of that, fcitx-anthy is another input method for japanese | 23:54 |
| wxl | as is fcitx-kkc | 23:54 |
| wxl | so i mean really i don't think we can possibly make it easy to install someone's input method | 23:54 |
| wxl | even if you can figure out their language, there's still the question of how they prefer to input it | 23:55 |
