seb128nicolasbock, could be the same as bug #198831507:15
ubottuBug 1988315 in gnome-shell-extension-appindicator (Ubuntu) "gnome-shell crashed with SIGABRT [Clutter:ERROR:../clutter/clutter/clutter-actor.c:11749:clutter_actor_destroy_all_children: assertion failed: (self->priv->n_children < prev_n_children)] in indicatorStatusIcon.js:317" [Undecided, New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/198831507:15
seb128nicolasbock, did you report the issue?07:15
jbichaseb128: we figured out in #ubuntu-next that things don't work well if you are using third party PPAs that modify gnome-settings-daemon etc. Getting rid of the PPAs fixed nicolas's issue11:24
seb128jbicha, hum, probably not the issue for Ken though12:01
jbichayeah, Daniel's theory is that one of Ken's other extensions might be interfering12:02
seb128jbicha, but Ken said he had no custom extension enabled12:04
seb128only stock Ubuntu session it seems12:04
jbichathat's probably true. gsettings said he had more extensions but they likely wouldn't have been enabled because they wouldn't have had 43 in their metadata.json12:05
dokoin kinetic, I'm trying to set the screen blank time from 5min to 15min, however the new value is never saved. switch to another config setting, and going back to "Power", the old value is shown again15:26
jbichadoko: that's a known gnome-control-center bug that will be fixed in 43~rc expected next week. bug 198808715:37
ubottuBug 1988087 in gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) "GNOME Settings has two Screen Blank controls and only one of them works." [High, Fix Committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/198808715:37
ograis the slution to get a second screen ?16:05
geniiI'm on Bionic, exfatfsck version is 1.2.8, 1.3.0 onwards limited repair was introduced, should I try to compile the source from for instance Focal, or maybe a backport is already in the works18:21
genii..well, for what it's worth, Focal's source package for exfat-utils-1.3.0-1ubuntu1 compiled and runs ok for me here on Bionic although of course lintian didn't like the resulting deb for various reasons19:14
sarnoldlintian always has lots of opinions :)19:17

tewardanyone on the SRU team around to drop something into -proposed and review the SRU (first phase)?  Trying to fix torbrowser-launcher in Universe since it's been broken since Jammy thanks to Python 3.10 Strict Type Checking in commands.19:21
rbasakteward: isn't Browser window width/height really important for Tor users to remain anonymous?19:30
tewardrbasak: yes, but the problem here is that the system pre python3.10 was working on implicit type casting19:30
tewardi.e. if argument type is int, and given a float, it'll typecast it automatically.19:31
tewardrbasak: the change here is just to use integer division prior to passing it in (the system already divides height/width by 2 or such) so it's an int being passed in instead of a float19:31
tewardotherwise it's identical behavior where it'd be a lossy cast from float -> int19:31
tewardyou're right it's important for the anonymity but the launcher itself can't execute with the strict type checking in place19:32
tewardso this was the (simplest) workaround that would work with the upstream code.19:32
tewardand it looksl ike upstream doens't care but packagers should.19:32
tewardmy understanding of the code here is that it does basically the same thing - lossy conversion from a float to an int, retaining the same division/numbers in the launcher's init.19:34
tewardbut doing so by explicitly doing integer division to return an integer object to pass into gui.move() instead of a float19:34
tewardin order to get around the strict type checking19:34
rbasakSorry for the delay. I was in a meeting. Accepted now. Thanks!20:48
nicolasbockseb128: Yes it's fixed now. As jbicha said it was a rogue PPA :)20:50
tewardrbasak: no worries :)21:49
tewardrbasak: thank you kindly for the accept.  i tried to make sure this patch was as minimal as possible and as close to what pre-py3.10 was (implicit type casting vs. strict types)21:49
tewardthere's a lot of things that've broken with python 3.10 - old python versions and such break things when they introduce major changes.  Universe doesn't get the attention that Main does though :)21:50

RikMillsbdmurray: hi. how do I get to the crash trace for this? https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/8bd96e8c-2540-11ed-97b9-fa163e99341523:15
bdmurrayRikMills: Is this from a system under your control?23:21
bdmurrayI ask as the oops you've pointed at doesn't look right23:22
RikMillsbdmurray: no, it is popey's23:22
RikMillshe had a crash when holding down volume key in KDE and that is all he could give me23:23
bdmurrayRikMills: I'd expect to see a Problem key linking to a bucket in the Error Tracker we can see an example of this here https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/c3fede20-2a40-11ed-a628-fa163e55efd023:25
sarnoldthat's much more like what I expected to see23:25
RikMillsyeah, I was confused there was no way to the problem23:26
RikMillsglad to know it is not me being dumb ;)23:27
bdmurrayMy guess would be that something happend to the core file23:27
sarnoldnone of the crashes from that system that I've looked at have a problem link23:29
RikMillsok, I guess we have to see if it happens again and hope for a better result?23:29
bdmurrayor ask for the .crash file from the system to sort out what's going on23:29
RikMillsok, it is late here in the UK, so I think anything like that will need to wait until tomorrow. Thanks!23:31
