osseI just upgraded to 21.10. It seems the window borders (the top line with the buttons) are sometimes light and sometimes dark. Is this correct? https://imgur.com/a/wt4glde07:38
dufluosse, I think that's a feature of the Yaru theme. It's been confusing and changing for a while. Best to ask the theme people what the plan is: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/yaru-theme/+filebug or https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/issues07:44

dufluosse, if you have any ongoing queries about mismatched colour schemes then please try to keep each bug report simple (one app per bug)07:59
osseCurrently I have zero; just trying to understand the situation07:59
dufluI don't understand it fully but the Yaru team is usually very responsive if you want to contact them08:00
clobrano[m]Hello everyone 🙂08:01
clobrano[m]hey osse, from what I can see from this picture (https://imgur.com/a/wt4glde) there's Firefox that is using the old snap gtk-common-theme, while Gnome Terminal and Shotwell are configured ad "prefer-dark" and so it uses the dark variant 08:01
clobrano[m]which is basically what said in the bug report you mentioned08:01
dufluI think regular users (and even us developers) probably need a simpler explanation like if it's not fixed yet, where an open bug about each problem can be found08:02
dufluNot /why/ it happens08:02
dufluIf some are snap bugs then we can help to point you where to log those app bugs08:03
didrockssalut oSoMoN, seb128 08:12
didrocksand hey clobrano[m]!08:12
clobrano[m]hey duflu, sorry for not being too clear. What I meant is that Firefox snap is build on an old version of gtk-common-theme. It is not a bug, as far as I know, either gtk-common-theme has to be rebuild with the new Yaru as target, or firefox snap needs to be rebuild with a newer gtk-common-theme if it exists already08:14
clobrano[m]the other applications are shipped with prefer-dark by default in Ubuntu08:14
clobrano[m]hey didrocks  🙂08:14
dufluThanks clobrano[m] 08:17
dufluosse, I think the summary is "it's not a bug except for Firefox which you can fix with 'sudo apt install firefox'"08:17
clobrano[m]duflu: firefox deb now installs a snap, is that right? If that so, re-installing firefox might not be enough08:18
dufluNo it's still a deb on jammy (just tried it)08:19
clobrano[m]oh, I see, it should be ok then 🙂08:19
dufluI guess we'll find out after 22.04 but I expect more users will report this as a bug (after which time it's too late to change)08:21
clobrano[m]gtk-common-themes candidate channel might also have a more up to date version, but I cannot test it at the moment08:40
osseI was unaware that firefox was a snap. That helps explain things! Thanks09:02
osseSo snaps bundle their own resources, or depend on other snaps that do? 09:03
GunnarHjHi oSoMoN! When will the Firefox snap be built with snapcraft 6.0? (Needless to say I have the font configuration issue in mind.)09:10
seb128GunnarHj, you should ask the snapcraft team when that version is going to be in the stable channel, that's a decision on their end11:09
oSoMoNGunnarHj, what seb128 said, but we could trigger a rebuild with snapcraft from the candidate channel for testing purposes, if you're interested11:17
GunnarHjseb128, oSoMoN: Thanks both of you. Yes, I think it would be good if we could test it that way, oSoMoN. Would like to follow-up if it actually works.11:20
oSoMoNGunnarHj, I'll kick off a rebuild now, and will publish it in a branch when it's ready11:21
GunnarHjThanks!11:21
oSoMoNbuilding here: https://launchpad.net/~mozilla-snaps/firefox/+snap/firefox-snap-stable/+build/159752611:25
GunnarHjoSoMoN: Ok.. It doesn't tell me much — I'm basically illiterate wrt the snap infrastructure. :/11:27
GunnarHjoSoMoN: But I see it failed. :(11:28
oSoMoNosse, both things: snaps bundle some of their dependencies, and depend on other snaps (sometimes called platform or content snaps), like e.g. gnome-3-38-2004 for all glib/gnome related dependencies, or gtk-common-themes for theming (there are other content snaps for the Qt/KDE stack, and others)11:28
oSoMoNGunnarHj, huh, let me check11:28
oSoMoN(when I shared that link it was building)11:29
oSoMoN« Could not find a required package in 'build-packages': libtinfo6 »11:29
oSoMoNlet me try locally11:30
oSoMoNmmm, it looks like it tried to build in a bionic VM, instead of focal11:43
oSoMoNI was expecting auto-detection of the correct series when using lp-build-snap, but it seems it always defaults to bionic11:44
oSoMoNnow building again here: https://launchpad.net/~mozilla-snaps/firefox/+snap/firefox-snap-stable/+build/159752811:44
KGB-2gtk3 Simon McVittie 285394 * commented merge request !8 * https://deb.li/3JIXd11:46
seb128oSoMoN, lp-build-snap uses the default config if you use no argument, but if you specify the arch it uses the old LP API (there is no way to specify the arch with the new one) and then you also need to specify the series option there is no autodetection. I guess you specific an arch?11:48
oSoMoNindeed, I triggered a build for amd64 only11:49
seb128we should maybe make the script display a warning for the case where the arch isn't autodetected, I've been bitten by that in the past11:53
KGB-2gtk3 Simon McVittie 285397 * commented merge request !8 * https://deb.li/EitU11:59
oSoMoNGunnarHj, the build failed again but it's an intermittent failure where downloading the firefox source tarball hangs, I've retried it again12:03
GunnarHjoSoMoN: I see. Thanks for your effort.12:04

ubottuPull 2 in kenvandine/lp-build-snap "Require a serie for arch specific builds" [Open]12:56
seb128kenvandine, ^ the change was prompted by the backlog, but I've been bitten by that in the past. When doing an arch specific build it's easy to forget that the snapcraft serie is not used and it's misleading, I first made it display a warning but since there is no confimartion there is little you can do otherwise having to go stop the build and start another one, seems a safer default to force the series arguement12:58
