arraybolt3tsimonq2: ACK00:13
arraybolt3_wctsimonq2: o/ from WeeChat01:07
=== arraybolt3 is now known as arraybolt3_tl
=== arraybolt3_wc is now known as arraybolt3
arraybolt3I now have rudimentary "apt update" support in the new updater. It's a bit funky I think because of an error in my backend script, but it seems to work and it looks nice.01:23
arraybolt3so now there's a "Check for Updates" button rather than a "Details" button. The "Details" button I intend to replace with allowing the user to double-click an update in the list to see more info about that particular update, which should be way lower on resource consumption and allow much more in-depth info display.01:24
arraybolt3guiverc, Leokolb, and anyone else who is a tester: If you haven't already, check your application menu -> Preferences and see if "Apply Full Upgrade" has been replaced with "Lubuntu Update". If it hasn't, run a full upgrade and reboot, if it has, reboot. A reboot is required to get the new updater working (unless you want to start it manually, which will work but it's best to just reboot),01:52
arraybolt3and the old one will almost without question be broken after it is replaced.01:53
arraybolt3anyway, going to package that new obconf-qt fanciness01:54
guivercarraybolt3, I have an 'Lubuntu Update' in my menu...  (on this noble box)01:54
arraybolt3guiverc: kk, reboot and let me know what you think of it once it starts working :)01:55
guiverci'll test it out on another box (I reboot this one only fornightly... not due yet)  yeah it don't work yet it appears here; but I'd expect logout/login required at minimum01:56
arraybolt3guiverc: If you just clicked on it, the first time clicking on it starts the background process.01:57
arraybolt3So click on it one more time and you should see it.01:57
arraybolt3(The background process is also set to autostart, but that doesn't happen until a reboot or some such. Clicking it once is how you manually start it the first time without rebooting. I dunno if that makes sense)01:58
guivercyep.. second click & a menu appears..   it reports no updates 'will be updated'.. but I install updates many times a day at terminal so no updates is ~expected01:59
guivercmore a dialog box (rather than menu)... 01:59
arraybolt3perfect01:59
arraybolt3oy, actaully I won't be doing packaging right now, because Lubuntu Git is down and I don't want to accidentally get our Git out of sync with the archive.02:01
guivercack & likley a very smart move.02:01
arraybolt3np, I'll go back to coding or perhaps see what patches need sponsored over in #ubuntu-devel.02:01
arraybolt3or try to install OpenBSD on an old i386 laptop :P02:01
guiverc:)02:02
arraybolt3actually what I really should be doing is getting some way to remote into my primary system so I can get rid of my clunky Chromebook and do work more easily.02:02
arraybolt3anyway, off-topic (like we care but still), I'll figure that out somewhere else :P02:02
guivercarraybolt3, on this box; I've perforemd `apt update` & two packages can be updated.. (libv4l-0 libv4lconvert0) but 0 are showing in 'lubuntu-update'  (i've not logged out/in or rebooted)02:15
tsimonq2arraybolt3: You could also just keep local repo copies for now.02:20
tsimonq2That's my plam02:21
tsimonq2*plan.02:21
tsimonq2Anyway, we should have a new Calamares and a new obconf-qt.02:21
tsimonq2My first meeting starts at 5 AM, so I am about to EOD.02:21
arraybolt3guiverc: could be because of "held back" updates?02:25
arraybolt3oh, actually, I know why02:25
arraybolt3you don't have the new "Check for Updates" button yet02:25
arraybolt3and so the updater is still using in-memory data about updates rather than fetching it anew02:26
tsimonq2For those on the IRC side that are unaware, our bridging service is down until Friday, unless teward and/or myself find some magic to work.15:17
tsimonq2IRC stays the (lowercase c) canonical communication platform for Lubuntu. I'd like this to be Matrix soon, but for now this is IRC.15:17
=== lyn is now known as Guest8107
lynoriantsimonq2 thanks for telling me about the new version of htop 19:58
tsimonq2lynorian: Of course, sorry if the message got delayed :)19:58
tsimonq2Looks like our Twitter strawpoll is 100% for shipping the new version in Backports. Nice.19:59
