[08:52] <seb128> goood morning IRC
[09:29] <lissyx> seb128, i'll test locally and then send a PR to a patch to stable for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1854179
[09:29] -ubottu:#ubuntu-desktop- Mozilla bug 1854179 in Toolkit "Crash in OOM | large | thin_vec::header_with_capacity" [--, Resolved: Fixed]
[09:36] <seb128> lissyx, great, I don't understand Gabriele's comment there
[09:36] <seb128> is he saying that upstream isn't going to fix the issue and than we should distro patch somehow?
[09:37] <lissyx> seb128, no, it's more that we dont know when a new 118 might come out, and it's serious enough but only for ubuntu that you might want to pick the patch and do a new build for stable channel
[09:38] <seb128> ah, ok
[09:38] <seb128> bandali, ^
[10:43] <GunnarHj> I would like to talk with someone about a possible preparation in mantic for 23.10->24.04 distupgrades.
[10:43] <GunnarHj> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/2034986/comments/18
[10:43] <GunnarHj> Does my reasoning make sense? seb128? jbicha? Somebody else?
[10:43] -ubottu:#ubuntu-desktop- Launchpad bug 2034986 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu Mantic) "some text became unreadable during a distribution upgrade" [Critical, In Progress]
[10:50] <seb128> GunnarHj, I'm not a font expert but I do wonder if somehow the release upgrader should include a ttf in a private path and use that instead of relying on system fonts?
[10:53] <GunnarHj> seb128: I can't tell if that would be possible. But even if it is, other programs like the desktop itself and possible other open applications are affected. So personally I see the workaround in the making as a decent permanent solution. With reservation, then, for what I wrote in that bug comment.
[10:53] <seb128> the real fix is to stop applying updates in session...
[10:54] <seb128> GunnarHj, but I agree with what you wrote, unsure which font would be right to depends on though
[10:56] <GunnarHj> seb128: DejaVu Sans is on my mind, which is a bit sad because I made some effort to *avoid* fonts-dejavu-core among the default fonts...
[10:57] <GunnarHj> seb128: It's basically unmaintained which in this context is good. :/
[12:52] <bandali> good morning
[12:53] <bandali> thanks lissyx will look into those
[13:19] <seb128> ricotz, hey, as a FYI I finally managed to push your thunderbird 115 updates to the security ppa, sorry for the delay!
[13:25] <seb128> ricotz, but I see now that we will need a nodejs update for 22.04. It got updated in 20.04 by Olivier a while ago but I guess he didn't need it in 22.04 because firefox as a snap there
[13:26] <seb128> well that was nodejs-mozilla in focal
[13:26] <lissyx> oh nodejs
[13:26] <lissyx> good luck.
[13:26] <seb128> shrug
[13:26] <seb128> I expect that might not be as easy :/
[13:26] <lissyx> so many horrors story to share about that
[13:27] <seb128> :-(
[13:28] <seb128> I wonder if thunderbird 115 could easily be makde to build with 12.22.9 instead of 12.22.12
[13:29] <lissyx> you should ask the #thunderbird-dev channel on matrix
[13:29] <lissyx> folks are responsive
[13:30] <seb128> ack, thanks for the hint
[13:34] <ricotz> seb128, ah sorry, I am implicitly using a nodejs backport from kinetic to jammy for the ppa builds :(
[13:37] <seb128> ricotz, did you try to build with the jammy version of nodejs? do you know why .12 is required?
[13:38] <seb128> https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nodejs/node/main/doc/changelogs/CHANGELOG_V12.md
[13:43] <GunnarHj> seb128: Back to the pre lunch topic: Does it make sense to you to add fonts-dejavu-core as a Depend in desktop-common to prepare for the 23.10->24.04 upgrades?
[13:43] <ricotz> seb128, the requirement is explicit and would need to be patched, I assume the bump was made by choice for security reasons
[13:43] <seb128> GunnarHj, I don't understand fonts enough to have an opinion on whether that's enough
[13:44] <ricotz> seb128, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1782523
[13:44] -ubottu:#ubuntu-desktop- Mozilla bug 1782523 in Firefox Build System "We install node version v16.0.0 which is 1.5y old and has several security updates" [--, Resolved: Fixed]
[13:44] <ricotz> https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-esr115/rev/839f7f52434489ff18172cbc8232731fe54f0ecc
[13:46] <ricotz> seb128, I am currently busy, sorry
[13:47] <seb128> ricotz, there isn't much difference between .9 and .12 it seems, it feels like we could try to build it with .9 and see how it goes
[13:47] <GunnarHj> seb128: It's enough under the assumption that DejaVu Sans does not undergo changes. The upstream repo was last updated 6 years ago.
[13:47] <seb128> ricotz, no worry
[13:47] <seb128> GunnarHj, the proposal would work for me at least
[13:48] <GunnarHj> seb128: Then I'll do it. Thanks!
[13:51] <seb128> np!
[14:09] <GunnarHj> seb128: Is App Center itself translatable?
[14:18] <seb128> GunnarHj, the string or the application?
[14:22] <GunnarHj> seb128: Actually I think about both the string "App Center" and the whole application.
[14:23] <GunnarHj> seb128: I just noticed that you had made Swedish translations for gnome-initial-setup which i just changed. :/
[14:25] <bandali> lissyx, hey did you get a chance to check https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/1854179 locally? wondering if i should tackle it or if you may already be working on it
[14:25] <seb128> GunnarHj, sorry, I just made the string replace thing Steve asked for
[14:25] <lissyx> bandali, multiple times on nightly yes
[14:25] <lissyx> bandali, sorry, I am about to go out, school time and I wont be able to come back
[14:25] <bandali> lissyx, excellent, thanks. would you like to do a PR for it or okay if i do?
[14:26] <lissyx> I wont have time for a PR before tomorrow
[14:26] <bandali> ah okay np, many thanks anyway, i'll just do a PR and tag you and seb as reviewers
[14:26] <lissyx> and you probably want to ship it to beta and stable as well
[14:26] <bandali> lissyx, right. afaik it's already in the next beta tho yeah? so i'd only need a PR for stable?
[14:26] <lissyx> bandali, you can ask help from gabriele on matrix, I pinged both
[14:27] <lissyx> but I really really have to go
[14:27] <bandali> thank you thank you. okay see ya later o/
[14:27] <GunnarHj> seb128: The most urgent thing, I suppose, is the label of the icon in the dock, and I don't know where to translate that. Think it would be appropriate to provide a pointer to the translators.
