arraybolt3 | mmikowski: Been working on that KDE crash bug. It's... very elusive. I have it pinned down to the component (plasma-workspace) and know that Plasma/5.26 reliably crashes and master reliably doesn't... but finding the actual commit that fixes things has proven to be really difficult. | 02:00 |

mmikowski | Ah, thanks Aaron. | 02:03 |
mmikowski | It seems less common now in 22.04 (KDE 5.24.7). | 02:04 |
mmikowski | But it is certainly still there :\ | 02:04 |
mmikowski | It might be a weird interaction between plasma and fameworks. I'm just guessing that because after the last frameworks upgrade, the crashiness seems less. | 02:05 |
mmikowski | But seems != scientifically proven. It's just a feeling. | 02:06 |
arraybolt3 | So far what I know is that, when everything's Plasma/5.26, crashes happen. When you run all Plasma/5.26 but with just plasma-workspace built from master, the crashes vanish. | 02:06 |
arraybolt3 | The trouble is that the Plasma/5.26 branch and the master branch seem to have diverged *before* the release of Plasma/5.26 (how???) and so stuff that you would expect to work doesn't. | 02:07 |
mmikowski | Is the crash the one when you are changing the theme? | 02:07 |
arraybolt3 | Like checking out the Plasma/5.26 merge commit in the master branch and building it results in a totally broken desktop. | 02:07 |
arraybolt3 | Yep, it's the theme changing crash. | 02:07 |
mmikowski | That's the one I was talking about. | 02:07 |
arraybolt3 | Yeah. So we're on the same page. | 02:07 |
mmikowski | Ah, so yeah, I just changed the theme 3 times with the layout also changing. | 02:07 |
mmikowski | This is in 5.24.7 - and it hasn't crashed yet. | 02:07 |
mmikowski | Before, it was crashing 50% of the time. | 02:08 |
mmikowski | ok, after the 8th change, it has crashed. | 02:09 |
mmikowski | Yup, plasmashell's dead, Jim. | 02:10 |
mmikowski | Needed to use plasmashell --replace. | 02:10 |
mmikowski | So yeah, less common, but still there. | 02:11 |
arraybolt3 | Yeah. I know there's a fix somewhere (or at least suspect so), so I'll keep looking. | 02:11 |
mmikowski | Ah, git histories can be weird. | 02:11 |
mmikowski | I'm no expert, but the branch commits can get interlaced. | 02:12 |
arraybolt3 | You ain't joking :P | 02:12 |
mmikowski | So that's prolly what you're seeing. | 02:12 |
mmikowski | I gotta run for family dinner, but I might be able to help next week. | 02:12 |
arraybolt3 | o/ See you later! Have a great night! | 02:13 |
arraybolt3 | (hey btw are you on Mastodon?) | 02:13 |
mmikowski | I've gotta get this new kernel package built and we have new hardware coming soon, so busy busy busy. | 02:13 |
mmikowski | No, not yet anyway. | 02:13 |
mmikowski | kk gotta run. ttys! | 02:13 |
arraybolt3 | k. If you ever make a Kubuntu Focus account on there, lemme know. I'm on @arraybolt3@ubuntu.social. See ya! | 02:13 |
BluesKaj | Hi all | 12:49 |
