RikMillsmmikowski: not sure I want to change the wallpaper in backports. regular users expect top get the new plasma wallpaper09:23
RikMillshowever, if you want to ship a modified settings package for focus, you can do that09:23
RikMillsyou would also have to find a way of modifying the ubiquity-dm wallpaper path on your ISO09:25
RikMillsmaybe sed foo in capser bottom09:27
RikMills*casper09:27
RikMillsmmikowski: I also wasn't aware that you had the backports PPA enabled by default on focus10:36
BluesKajHi all12:14
RikMillslaunchpad git looks broken13:18
EickmeyerFixing the wallpaper in ubiquity is a one-line change, but that's not nearly as important as the theme, which is also a one-line change we can fix on the Focus side.15:56
RikMillsindeed. :D16:02
EickmeyerAlso, the plasma crash is a known bug which has been already reported mmikowski16:02
RikMillsEickmeyer: you do nothing with latte-dock in focus, correct?16:04
EickmeyerRikMills: Correct.16:04
RikMillsok, 5.25 breaking it is less of an issue then, though it still needs sorting16:05
EickmeyerRight, but mmikowski's issue is this is going out to people who are expecting a certain level of service and professional experience, so as you can imagine he's a little trepidatious.16:09
EickmeyerBut yeah, latte-dock is a non-issue for sure.16:10
RikMillsEickmeyer: then might have been good if I had known before a few days ago that focus used the backports ppa ;)16:11
EickmeyerRikMills: I agree, there was a large communication lapes over the last few years.16:11
Eickmeyer*lapse16:11
RikMillslets keep it good going forward then :D16:12
EickmeyerYep. That was the intention of getting mmikowski in this room and part of my quassel instance/persistence.16:12
RikMillsI am wondering if you would be better served with a separate PPA that backports deemed to be tested enough for you get copied to16:14
EickmeyerThat's a question and discussion we'd need to have with mmikowski.16:15
RikMillsnot that I would not hold back releases like the current one. I was not keen to push it before you all piped up16:16
RikMillsbut maybe you would wait a point bugfix release or 2 later than I would16:16
EickmeyerYeah, 5.25.0 seems to be a little messy, tbh.16:17
mamarleyIsn't 5.25.1 supposed to come out today or tomorrow or something?16:23
EickmeyerTomorrow, iirc16:23
RikMillsyep16:24
RikMillsI will build and put it in backports-landing ppa for jammy16:24
RikMillsthere is a loooooooooooooooooooooooooong list of bugfixes16:25
mamarleyAnd I assume in the normal places for kinetic too? :)16:25
RikMillsmamarley: in the normal staging ppa as these tars will not be embargoed16:26
mamarleyThanks!16:26
RikMillsplus uploaded to kinetic as soon as I know they build ok16:26
mmikowskiRikMills: No worries about the wallpaper changing, just this one is so busy it causes problems with widgets. Hopefully they'll pick something different for 5.25.1. The big issues IMO are as summarized: All Vertical panel layouts appear broken; plasma constantly crashes on theme where layout change is selected; widgets appear to move themselves on sign-in. The first two are completely reproducable; the last we have yet to 20:18
mmikowskiisolate.20:18
mmikowskiRikMills: We should like to help ensure backports is well tested for everyone and would rather help squash bugs upstream than have them provide a bad UX and drive users away from the platform.  There may still be a good reason to have a separate backports-kfocus repo, but hopefully the value of intense testing across many devices would make that well worth it.  Of course, if it isn't needed, then all the better.23:42
