guiverclikely most have seen this, but kinetic final freeze - https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2022-October/001324.html02:51
arraybolt3[m]guiverc: Looks like all our bug fixes sneaked in *just* under the wire, so \o/02:51
arraybolt3[m]Simon Quigley: We could probably use a Lubuntu RC ISO. Last one on the tracker is still from 10-13. Is that something you do or should I be bugging someone else to press the button?13:08
guivercarraybolt3[m], can you wait for the cron job to build normally (note: I've not looked to see if there is a build failure, but as I recall it's too early for us yet... though I'm more interested in bed at this time of day ...)13:10
arraybolt3[m]guiverc: Ah, didn't know there was a cron job, and I saw that the Ubuntu ISO was already built. Thanks!13:11
* guiverc would see clicking 'request build' as a waste ... thanks arraybolt3[m] 13:12
guivercsorry I can't think of URL for cron job (where to confirm build start times)... others may know it..  (launchpad somewhere)13:13
arraybolt3[m]np, I thought it might be manually triggered since Ubuntu's on 10-14 and we're on 10-13.13:14
guivercany product manager (I believe; iso.qa.ubuntu.com page you'll know, just don't view the Administration detail at bottom of page) can click builds; but its a waste if not required (cron job would still run I'd expect meaning it'd be stale super fast)13:16
kc2bez[m]RC images have to be initially built by the release team.13:56
kc2bez[m]We "the product managers" can re-build them or mark them as ready, etc13:57
kc2bez[m]If you scroll back in -release you can see they were starting with Ubuntu first.13:59
arraybolt3[m]That explains it. I don't usually pay super close attention to what goes on there (I skim it for important stuff and whatnot, looks like I missed some this time).14:00
kc2bez[m]No worries.14:01
lubot[telegram] <Leokolb> Initial tests on 14-10-22 (RC) Lubuntu Kinetic look good17:25
arrayboltqLive session test of Lubuntu Kinetic RC18:27
arraybolt3arrayboltq: Ping18:27
arrayboltqWorks18:27
arraybolt3[m]We have duplicate buttons for Calamares in the RC ISO, in the Application Menu.18:34
arraybolt3[m]One launches Calamares with the Breeze theme, the other one launches it with a system theme that I believe is the result of a prior bugfix.18:35
arraybolt3[m]The Breeze-theme-enabled Calamares launcher is "Install System", while the normal one is "Install Lubuntu 22.10."18:35
arraybolt3[m]Will be filing a bug report soon-ish (after this test is complete).18:37
kc2bez[m]I think there is a bug for that already 18:46
kc2bez[m]There is unfortunately no easy solution to remove it. One comes from upstream Calamares and one we install.18:47
arraybolt3[m]We can't just patch it out the way that Debian patches out stuff for DFSG things?18:48
kc2bez[m]There is an upstream LXQt bug that should prevent it from displaying in the menu18:48
kc2bez[m]There is a patch already in Calamares 18:49
arraybolt3[m]Hmm. OK.18:49
arraybolt3[m]If it fails, we may want to release note that.18:49
arraybolt3[m]I mean it's not that big a deal, most users probably won't notice it or will just skim over it. Might be interesting to see how the "Install system" button works for installing Lubuntu, though.18:49
kc2bez[m]Fair point. Both should work in theory. One uses sudo and one uses pkexec I think.18:51
arraybolt3[m]Sounds right, though I remember we had problems with that earlier in the cycle, so that might cause trouble.18:52
kc2bez[m]Here is the upstream issue preventing us to hide the menu entry. https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt/issues/174318:53
-ubot93:#lubuntu-devel- Issue 1743 in lxqt/lxqt "Desktop files with NotShowIn=LXQt are still displayed in the menu" [Open]18:53
arraybolt3[m]Blah.18:55
kc2bez[m]Agreed. I sadly chased that one around a bunch.18:58
arraybolt3[m]Uhh... another thing, this might be intended behavior, but if I switch the Qt theme to "cde", menus no longer open without specifically clicking on them (i.e., the usual "hover over a menu to open it" stuff in the Application Menu and other areas doesn't seem to work).19:02
arraybolt3[m](Probably no one cares about that, but since I was testing theme changing, and noticed it, figured it might be good to point out.)19:02
kc2bez[m]I suppose that might be intentional. 🤷🏻‍♂️19:05
kc2bez[m]I think "old" when I see cde so... 19:05
arraybolt3[m]Exactly.19:05
lubot[telegram] <Leokolb> Upgrades from Jammy to kinetic /with+without backports good19:35
lubot[telegram] <guiverc> Thanks @Leokolb (re: release-upgrades)23:14
