[11:42] <bluesabre> Hello desktoppers!
[11:42] <bluesabre> I 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] <bluesabre> And... 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.
[11:45] <seb128> bluesabre, you should include snapd-desktop-integration probably yes, it handles things like themes installation or update-available/refresh notifications
[11:47] <seb128> bluesabre, @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 though
[11:47] <seb128> but 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 one
[11:50] <bluesabre> seb128: Perfect, that's what I needed to know. Thank you!
[11:51] <seb128> yw!
[13:43] <seb128> ricotz, 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?
[13:52] <ricotz> seb128, hey, unfortunately this is true for xenial/bionic/focal builds, was there a specific series mentioned?
[13:53] <seb128> ricotz, bionic and focal
[13:53] <ricotz> jammy and later have llvm15 which results in successful builds
[13:54] <seb128> from a quick look to one log it seemed like a python thing but maybe I read an unrelevant part of the log
[13:54] <ricotz>  4:02.76 clang: error: the clang compiler does not support '-march=armv8.2-a+dotprod+i8mm'
[13:54] <seb128> I wouldn't bother about xenial/bionic since they are series out of support at the Ubuntu level
[13:54] <seb128> ah
[13:55] <seb128> anyway I don't think that's something we should invest efforts on, I just wanted to check the status to reply to the user
[13:55] <ricotz> that is for focal, bionic has more problems
[13:56] <ricotz> I was hoping _bandali would have a moment to look into the focal failure
[13:56] <ricotz> https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+sourcepub/15698561/+listing-archive-extra
[13:57] <ricotz> so fixing this is reasonable ^
[13:57] <seb128> bandali, ^ could you add that to your backlog, that's going to be an issue for the incoming release right?
[13:58] <ricotz> seb128, already an issue with 121
[13:58] <ricotz> https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages?field.name_filter=&field.status_filter=&field.series_filter=focal
[13:58] <seb128> ah, we released without arm, I hadn't noticed
[13:58] <ricotz> yeah :(
[17:09] <bandali> ricotz, seb128, i did look, but unfortunately couldn't think of or find any workarounds
[17:09] <bandali> for arm64, i'm afraid our clang version is simply too old (we had to bump it down to workaround failures all across)
[17:10] <bandali> for 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/focal
[17:11] <bandali> the 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 that
[17:11] <bandali> (at least as far as i can see)
[18:31] <ricotz> bandali, 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-extra
[18:33] <ricotz> it looks like an existing solution
