bluesabreHello desktoppers!11:42
bluesabreI was looking at https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/+git/ubuntu/tree/desktop-minimal to figure out the snap-store... and saw snap:snapd-desktop-integration ... is this something Xubuntu should include?11:42
bluesabreAnd... do I need to do anything special to get the right version of snap-store? When I was doing some early testing, I had to install from edge to get the new version instead of the gnome-software fork.11:42
seb128bluesabre, you should include snapd-desktop-integration probably yes, it handles things like themes installation or update-available/refresh notifications11:45
seb128bluesabre, @snap-store, is that in context of iso building? we could't publish the new codebase to stable easily since it would auto-upgrade systems on the old codebase and we were not at feature parity, unsure what's the status now though11:47
seb128but if you build an iso livecd-rootfs will default to use the stable/ubuntu-xx.yy channel and we have the new flutter codebase published there so you will get the right one11:47
bluesabreseb128: Perfect, that's what I needed to know. Thank you!11:50
seb128yw!11:51
seb128ricotz, hey, I got an email through the 'contact admin' from mozillateam on launchpad to point out that the firefox ppa build were failing on arm ... is that a known issue/something we care about?13:43
ricotzseb128, hey, unfortunately this is true for xenial/bionic/focal builds, was there a specific series mentioned?13:52
seb128ricotz, bionic and focal13:53
ricotzjammy and later have llvm15 which results in successful builds13:53
seb128from a quick look to one log it seemed like a python thing but maybe I read an unrelevant part of the log13:54
ricotz 4:02.76 clang: error: the clang compiler does not support '-march=armv8.2-a+dotprod+i8mm'13:54
seb128I wouldn't bother about xenial/bionic since they are series out of support at the Ubuntu level13:54
seb128ah13:54
seb128anyway I don't think that's something we should invest efforts on, I just wanted to check the status to reply to the user13:55
ricotzthat is for focal, bionic has more problems13:55
ricotzI was hoping _bandali would have a moment to look into the focal failure13:56
ricotzhttps://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+sourcepub/15698561/+listing-archive-extra13:56
ricotzso fixing this is reasonable ^13:57
seb128bandali, ^ could you add that to your backlog, that's going to be an issue for the incoming release right?13:57
ricotzseb128, already an issue with 12113:58
ricotzhttps://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages?field.name_filter=&field.status_filter=&field.series_filter=focal13:58
seb128ah, we released without arm, I hadn't noticed13:58
ricotzyeah :(13:58
bandaliricotz, seb128, i did look, but unfortunately couldn't think of or find any workarounds17:09
bandalifor arm64, i'm afraid our clang version is simply too old (we had to bump it down to workaround failures all across)17:09
bandalifor armhf, i saw a workaround by the Debian maintainer and thought of applying it on our side as well, but iirc the workaround was already merged in for the then-upcoming upstream stable release and didn't seem to help us on ubuntu/focal17:10
bandalithe only/main reasonable way forward out of the mess is getting newer llvm/clang backported, which i've just requested to the foundations team, but i'm not sure if/when they will do that17:11
bandali(at least as far as i can see)17:11
ricotzbandali, llvm-13 works for focal, but it is stuck in proposed and probably abandoned - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/llvm-toolchain-13 - https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+sourcepub/15699941/+listing-archive-extra18:31
ricotzit looks like an existing solution18:33
