seb128didrocks, I'm alright, we had some nice weather over the weekend and enjoyed some walks, and we saw some friends who stopped by on saturday, otherwise nothing special09:03

seb128ssh: Could not resolve hostname lp: Name or service not known09:26
seb128hum?09:26
Laneydo you have this thing: https://help.launchpad.net/Code/Git#Configuring_Git ?09:27
seb128yes, it's my normal machine09:27
seb128what's going on today?09:28
Laneydunno then, sorry, that sounds like it is trying to use lp: as a hostname instead of rewriting it09:28
seb128I added that snippet back there, I wonder how it had been working before or what config I lost over the weekend...09:30
seb128git and I shall never be real friends :p09:31
seb128I was reading https://code.launchpad.net/~3v1n0/ubuntu-desktop-versions/+git/ubuntu-desktop-versions/+merge/393487 , turns out the list of commits is incomplete09:32
seb128which could be a launchpad bug, unsure if gitlab/github handle that better09:32
seb128also I got confused by the snap-store branch showing the most recent comments as from april in the 3.38 branch09:34
seb128the non linear history is confusing09:34
seb128oh well, I probably just need more coffee to be able to get along with git again, requires to be really awake to make any sense ;-)09:35
jibelseb128, FYI, hirsute image has grown by 400MB at 3.1GB. I didn't look what changed.09:51
jibelcompared to latest groovy image09:51
Laneydoesn't dok_o turn on some gcc thing at the start of cycle which makes bigger binaries, could be that?09:55
Laneynot sure I remember that correctly09:56
jibelyeah, that's what I was thinking too but didn't check the size of the binaries on the iso09:57
GunnarHjHi seb128, Please read my comment at bug #1903449 and compare it with how Robert motivated the patch deletion here:10:53

ricotzhello desktopers!11:27
ricotzis there progress to pick up gnome-shell/mutter 3.36.7 for focal?11:27
cpaelzerGunnarHj: isn't the old root-bug we dup all those to at 857651 ?11:38
cpaelzerThanks btw your reference to 1841079 explains why some things got better in that regard already11:38
seb128ricotz, hey, there is .6 in the SRU queue but it has been blocked on the discourse discussion with the SRU team about testing all the available extensions in the archive11:38
seb128.7 is probably one to pick for Trevinho11:39
seb128GunnarHj, hey, I think we had that issue even before when we had that patch11:39
seb128I will check the bug comment in a bit though11:39
seb128Laney, jibel , I think it's something toolchainish yes, iirc not individual binaries but something debug in the toolchain itself11:40
ricotzseb128, I see, 3.36.8 will be there in soon too though11:42
GunnarHjcpaelzer: AFAIU there are different issues. accountsservice should always prevent non-human users from showing up at e.g. the login screen, while bug #857651 is more about the ability for a system admin to hide certain human users as well.11:43
ubot5bug 857651 in accountsservice (Ubuntu) "Unable to hide users from login screen / user switcher" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/85765111:43
GunnarHjseb128: Are you saying that we should consider to drop the patch in xenial too?11:46
seb128GunnarHj, I'm not going to invest any desktop work on xenial at this point it's LTS--11:55
GunnarHjseb128: Thought so. But you mentioned "even before" which was the reason I asked.11:58
seb128GunnarHj, I just know that login screen listing users that it shouldn't has been a complain for ever11:58
GunnarHjseb128: Ok.11:59
seb128GunnarHj, it's not clear to me if we still have bug, I know that the libvirt case has been raised over the years, e.G bug #167476512:04
ubot5bug 857651 in accountsservice (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1674765 Unable to hide users from login screen / user switcher" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/85765112:04
seb128but they were also using an uid which wasn't < 500 so unsure if that was their fault12:04
GunnarHjseb128: "/usr/sbin/nologin" should be sufficient to prevent a user from being shown. So the bug is indeed valid. (I even reproduced it.)12:06
seb128did we ever show those?12:07
GunnarHjseb128: The case in the bug is an example of it - that libvirt-qemu user has /usr/sbin/nologin.12:08
GunnarHjseb128: And dropping the patch fixes it.12:08
seb128GunnarHj, it doesn't make much sense bug #1841079 states 'Downgrading them to 0.6.50-0ubuntu1 version (as it was in 20190821 iso) fixes the issue:'12:10
ubot5bug 1841079 in accountsservice (Ubuntu Eoan) "Speech Dispatcher and other non-human users should not be shown on LightdDM login screen and session menus" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/184107912:10
seb128or bionic and xenial versions are older than this12:10
seb128sounds like it's a different issue?12:11
GunnarHjseb128: Or a variant of it... We know that dropping the patch fixes the latest bug and that the patch originally was there due to Ubuntu Touch.12:12
seb128GunnarHj, I wouldn't bother trying to SRU that to older series12:14
seb128it's a behaviour change, I'm unsure how we would assert that no one in those series is relying on the feature (even if it creates issues)12:15
GunnarHjseb128: "Won't fix" then?12:15
seb128fix released, it's fixed in focal and newer no?12:16
GunnarHjseb128: Yes. I meant for bionic.12:16
seb128don't add a line for bionic, or delete it or wontfix, either way12:20
seb128I don't think the issue has enough 'user heat' to bother12:21
seb128 12:29
seb128git question for the experts, how in a git merge with conflicts do I tell I want to reset the content of a file to the initial one?12:30
seb128e.g bar has some conflicts and such a bunch of <<< & co sections12:31
seb128it's will be easier to do 'go back to what is currently in the vcs and edit by hand on top'12:31
seb128I tried to git checkout bar, but it says that bar is unmerged :-(12:31
GunnarHjseb128: Got it. Just closed the bug report with a comment.12:34
seb128GunnarHj, thx12:34
Laneyseb128: like 'git restore --source=<some commit> some/path' maybe?12:40
Laneydid you ever try using meld to resolve conflicts btw?12:40
Laneylike git mergetool -t meld12:40
seb128no, thanks for the tip12:40
mgedminthere's some magic syntax for git checkout to refer to the original file on either side of the merge by prefixing the filename with :1: and :2:12:43
mgedminbut it's usually easier to use a mergetool that displays everything12:44
* mgedmin personally gets confused about which file is which and prefers the diff3 format of conflict markers, git config --global merge.conflictStyle diff3)12:45
Laneylol12:47
Laneygit questions always quickly turn complicated12:47
seb128at least I learnt about git mergetool :p12:47
seb128I went the 'easy' way12:47
seb128cp file file.before12:47
seb128git merge12:47
seb128mv file.before file12:47
seb128:p12:47
seb128now I can edit and git add :)12:48
luna_oSoMoN: another Firefox Dot release to package up today: https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/82.0.3/14:30
oSoMoNluna_, ack: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/82.0.3+build1-0ubuntu114:30
luna_great14:30
luna_but [FAILEDTOBUILD] Failed to build does not sound that promising14:31
oSoMoNyes, that's a problem with build dependencies (perl in that case), that's rather typical at the beginning of the cycle where building blocks are moving fast14:35
luna_ah i see14:36
GunnarHjseb128: Can you please advise about these autopkgtests blocking gtk+3.0:15:10
GunnarHj1. juce i386 - should probably be ignored since juce isn't built for i386.15:10
GunnarHj2. isenkram amd64 - probably needs some investigation15:10
GunnarHjCan you help with juce? How would you go about isenkram? Debian bug?15:10
seb128GunnarHj, unsure why 1) is getting tested at all if it isn't build on that arch indeed15:13
seb128I think I will never understand how the partial archive is done for i38615:14
GunnarHj:)15:14
seb128GunnarHj, I would suggest to try to mp an hint to badtest it and see how it goes, maybe ping vorlon for review15:14
seb128GunnarHj, isenkram did you try to reproduce in a vm or something?15:15
GunnarHjseb128: Please translate: "mp a hint to badtest it".15:15

GunnarHjseb128: I haven't tried anything yet (besides requesting new attempts).15:16

hellsworthhey ther oSoMoN how are you today?17:32
GunnarHjseb128: As regards isenkram I submitted bug #1903574 with some info which may or may not be useful. It doesn't seem to have very much with gtk+3.0 to do, though.17:44

GunnarHjseb128: Sure.19:33
seb128oSoMoN, kenvandine , Lukazs was nice enough to review and accept the focal/yaru SRU, now to find someone to do the verification and then we should be able to move forward with the snap changes19:43
