pieqg'day duflu !01:52
pieqI'm irrationally excited about PipeWire: https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/847412/d7826b1353e33734/01:52
callmepkmorning pieq duflu 02:14
dufluHi callmepk 02:15
duflupieq, we'll probably switch to PipeWire for audio in 21.1002:15
pieqduflu, you answered the question I didn't dare asking. That's good to know!02:18
pieqI'm especially excited about this as a replacement for JACK. Last year I helped a musician friend setting up his laptop on Linux, and because he needed low-latency, we setup JACK. As he had never used Linux before, it was quite a ride for him02:19
sarnoldheh, the last time I used jack was ~dozen years ago and it was a bit of a chore even then02:21
dufluI'm still recovering from the ALSA to PulseAudio transition, so am in no hurry02:23
sarnold12.04 was my first with pulseaudio I think, and I remember needing to killall pulseaudio *so* much02:25
pieqduflu  šŸ¤£02:29
pieqyes, the article mentions the painful transition. It seems that a lot of lessons have been learned, and people seem to be willing to work together to make PipeWire more successful02:30
JanCI've been using PulseAudio since back when it was called PolypAudio...02:30
sarnold(and similarly, I'm grateful for our friends at fedora and arch for shaking out the early pipwire bugs :)02:31
jameshWhat's the story for Pulse native protocol clients with Pipewire these days?02:36
jameshlast I looked they were only offering library-level compatibility02:36
JanCthat should probably be enough?02:38
pieqjamesh, according to the LWN article: "PulseAudio applications are supported through a pipewire-pulse daemon that listens to PulseAudio's own socket and implements its native communication protocol. This way, containerized desktop applications that use their own copy of the native PulseAudio client libraries are still supported."02:38
jameshpieq: sounds good.02:38
jameshpieq: sandboxed applications was my concern02:39

oSoMoNbuon giorno Trevinho, when you're around could you please review https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gjs/-/merge_requests/16 and if it looks alright merge and upload to experimental, so we can sync in hirsute?09:05

oSoMoNseb128, I've looked at the libraw build failure on ppc64el, and IĀ think this minimal patch makes sense, wdyt? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/MMpffG6NTn/10:47
oSoMoNI'm not super proficient with symbols files, but my understanding is that for C++ libs, template instantiations (like these ones for std::vector) should always be marked optional anyway, is that correct?10:48
seb128oSoMoN, wfm, I don't know if arch-bits=64 should be removed or not, doesn't make much of a difference?10:48
seb128I'm not an expert either but I think so10:49
oSoMoNif it's optional, it is for all architectures10:49
oSoMoNso keeping the arch specifier wouldn't add any value10:49
=== enyc_ is now known as enyc
oSoMoNand the followup question is: does this require a soname bump? (I'd tend to think, and hope, that it doesn't)10:50
seb128that upload includes a soname change10:51
seb128but otherwise for the question I don't know, I don't understand cpp symbols and mangling and visibility enough to say if that's an ABI change or just a weirdness in the .symbols10:52
GunnarHjGood day, seb128! Can you please sync ibus and ibus-anthy?10:54
seb128GunnarHj, hey, ok10:55
* Laney eyes libsoup tests12:32
Laneyit does look like new glib breaks those12:32
fossfreedomHi all.  Any chance someone could help Ubuntu Budgie out with this gnome-remote-desktop issue please? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-remote-desktop/+bug/191575212:39
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1915752 in gnome-remote-desktop (Ubuntu) "Why does the package have a dependency on gnome-shell" [Undecided,New]12:39
Laneyfossfreedom: suggest you speak to smcv in #debian-gnome, that's who added the dependency, not personally familiar with what requires what12:44
fossfreedomThx12:45
