Is it on the g-s project? 15:34 how much testing are we speaking about? 15:34 seb128, well, we can do a more general call for testing on G+ for example 15:35 give it a week 15:35 if it's more than some days I would suggest again than we do a SRU meanwhile to fix the notification nag issue 15:35 + the kde apps start 15:35 + selected other SRU worth fixes if any 15:35 attente, how confident are you in the PPA? Do you want to give it more than a few days of testing? 15:36 doing an easy SRU is probably like less than an hour work 15:36 yeah 15:37 https://launchpad.net/~attente/+archive/ubuntu/gnome-software 15:37 attente, so you wanna do an intermediate SRU for the other fixes first then? 15:37 for the sru, if we don't care for the rebase onto 3.20.2, we can do an immediate one 15:38 or i can wrap up the backport and push it to the ppa and we can just test that 15:38 i think i can finish that today 15:39 your call, I would have done an SRU directly after the first one with the other easy fixes, Laney had a preference to go next with the stable branch rebase I think 15:39 in any case let's pick one we can do by end of the week 15:39 either we are confident with the rebase and let's upload that 15:39 ok. i'm going to finish the backport then and will upload to the ppa 15:39 well, the PPA could be ready by the EOW but then we're still waiting for n weeks before the other small fixes get in 15:39 or we are not and let's get another round of fixes in while we bake the more complex one 15:40 yeah, also any regression in the rebase might delay the SRU to migrate to updates 15:40 good point 15:40 while it's less likely than a cherry pick small upload migrates easily 15:40 more likely* 15:40 so, FWIW - my 2 cents goes on getting an SRU out for the easier fixes sooner rather than later 15:40 but I defer to seb128 and attente to make a call. Let's wrap this up after the meeting? 15:41 attente, let's discuss after the meeting 15:41 willcooke, +1 15:41 thanks chaps 15:41 #topic denbeiren 15:41 oops 15:41 sorry denbeiren 15:41 #topic desrt 15:41 read for next round btw 15:41 +y 15:41 hi. still working on relocation stuff in glib. 15:41 usual bugs/reviews/etc. 15:41 that's all 15:42 thanks desrt 15:42 #topic andyrock 15:42 # [BUG:1506744] Newly installed applications do not show in the dash - Updated according to desrt's review - Waiting for next review 15:42 # [BUG:1587618] alt-backtick on desktop icon whilst alt-tabbing prevents further alt-tabbing - Already merged 15:42 # [BUG:1103593] Unity always shows all devices in launcher when CD is inserted - Already merged 15:42 WIP: 15:42 # [BUG:1582430] spinning wheel when opening Rhythmbox from Dash/Launcher WHEN it is already playing music - Just need to propose the branch 15:42 # [BUG:1460649] Can't unlock screen with last day password (before expired) 15:42 andyrock: link to the bug itself, plz? 15:42 # Some work on a snap for slack 15:42 desrt: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1506744 15:42 Launchpad bug 1506744 in gnome-menus (Ubuntu) "Newly installed applications do not show in the dash" [High,In progress] 15:43 i'll take a look 15:43 thx 15:43 thanks andyrock 15:43 #topic dgadomski 15:43 hey 15:43 * looking into a potential Samba regression (or a bugfix in relation to 4.1.6) regarding directory masking, the docs are not 100% clear, looking into implementation 15:43 * verifying bug #1578398 fixes 15:43 bug 1578398 in imagemagick (Ubuntu Yakkety) "ImageMagick Security Issue: CVE-2016-3714" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1578398 15:43 * haven't received the info about the bugs I mentioned last week so no progress here (bug #1585256 and the printer + libmtp udev conflict) 15:43 bug 1585256 in samba (Ubuntu) "After upgrading to 4.3.9 lost possibility to login to NetApp using Kerberos" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1585256 15:43 * was off on Thu-Fri 15:44 * regarding snaps - is there a place containing a list of apps already being snapped? to avoid duplication of effort 15:44 dgadomski, @ snaps - will send you a link 15:44 ok, thanks 15:44 then it's eof 15:44 thanks dgadomski 15:45 #topic FJKong 15:45 hi 15:45 * looking into bug/1534492, fixed before but reopen by user 15:45 * Chinese Localization in progress,bug/1555144\ 15:45 * Sogou IM bug review for hot key binding 15:45 eof 15:45 thanks FJKong 15:45 #topic happyaron 15:45 hi 15:45 1.
