 15:34 <andyrock> #2. Almost completed  "[BUG:1593696] Unity Lockscreen fails to show warnings on expiring passwords."

 15:34 <andyrock> #3. Reviews

 15:34 <andyrock> eof

 15:34 <willcooke> #4 Pizza

 15:34 <willcooke> thanks andyrock

 15:34 <andyrock> ahaha

 15:34 <willcooke> andyrock, when you get a chance to look at the Nautilus issue please ping me and lets work out what the best options are

 15:34 <willcooke> #topic attente

 15:35 <andyrock> sure

 15:35 <attente> hey, we figured out what the new menu api should look like at the gtk hackfest last week, and i've just been working on implementing it

 15:35 <attente> gnome-software sru work

 15:35 <attente> (eof)

 15:36 <willcooke> thanks attente, let's do a HO in our 1:1 next week and talk about menus

 15:36 <attente> sure

 15:36 <willcooke> thanks

 15:37 <willcooke> #topic desrt

 15:37 <desrt> hi.

 15:37 <desrt> spent last week at the gtk hackfest with attente, which is awesome

 15:37 <desrt> convinced upstream that relocatability of libraries in the gnome platform is something that we should aim for as a gnome goal.  ie: it is a bug if a gnome library doesn't support it

 15:37 <willcooke> nice!

 15:37 <desrt> had the scope/size of the required glib patch increase quite a lot since now i need to make this "The Way" for handling this stuff -- including on mac and windows

 15:38 <desrt> talked with alex a lot about flatpak, specifically the portals stuff.  his original proposed design was a bit overengineered in my opinion, and was written in a way that would probably hurt us and/or cause us to have to rewrite a lot of it.  we discussed refactoring it to improve the ability to share things more

 15:38 <desrt> i am in the middle of writing up a report from the hackfest wrt. flatpak

 15:39 <desrt> eof, i guess

 15:39 <willcooke> thanks desrt :))

 15:39 <willcooke> desrt, I'll put something in the diary next week to sync on that and the dconf proxy plans / work

 15:39 <willcooke> #topic dgadomski

 15:40 <desrt> ya.  sorry that this got punted, but relocatability is turning into a bit of a bigger thing

 15:40 <dgadomski> hey

 15:40 <dgadomski> * working on samba: bug #1592326 & bug #1592327

 15:40 <dgadomski> * stuck with darktable snap - during the launch something goes crazy creating recursive gschema symlinks, need to look closer into this starting from the gtk-launch wrapper

 15:40 <dgadomski> eof

 15:41 <willcooke> thanks dgadomski

 15:41 <dgadomski> thanks

 15:48 <willcooke> #topic Sweet5hark

 15:48 <Sweet5hark> - back and forth for snappy PR

 15:48 <Sweet5hark> - various LibreOffice snap bits (e.g. "dont ship symbols", dbus discussion ...)

 15:48 <Sweet5hark> - filed some snapcraft bugs

 15:48 <Sweet5hark> - tested LibreOffice snap in confined mode: seems to work

 15:48 <Sweet5hark> - testing to get LibreOffice build with l10n

 15:48 <Sweet5hark> - bumped LibreOffice/xenial to 5.1.4 in a ppa build (didnt publish yet)

 15:48 <Sweet5hark> - setup a snap-building VM on big bertha, maybe that will shortens the dev cycle

 15:48 <Sweet5hark> => next week: planning to go for 5.2.0~rc1 with full l10n on snappy, 5.1.4 LTS backports, and if there is time 5.2.0~rc1 as dpkg

 15:48 <Sweet5hark> EOF

 15:48 <willcooke> thanks Sweet5hark

 15:49 <willcooke> #topic TheMuso

 15:49 <willcooke> * Spent more time learning how to snap with snapcraft. Managed to get a couple of snaps built and mostly working, need to patch a package to look for a config file in a different place, so need to learn how to implement a custom plugin for now to do this.

 15:49 <willcooke> * Started working on the pulseaudio snap, updating it to work with the new snapcraft, and manage to get it built, again without patches. Sed patches are needed to make pulse behave in a snap environment. Will likely have to make configuration changes to probably run it system wide if used in a snappy only environment *sigh*

 15:49 <willcooke> * Started looking into teh best way to set up a snappy only environment for testing, mostly for pulse.

 15:49 <willcooke> #topic tkamppeter

 15:49 <tkamppeter> - Phone: Video call about printing with lewgacy apps running inside Libertine.

 15:49 <tkamppeter> - OpenPrinting distribution-independent driver packages: Started looking into distributing them as snaps in the Snap Store with the OpenPrinting web site selecting them via the printer's device ID.

 15:49 <tkamppeter> - cups-filters: CUPS 2.2.x drops System V interface scripts, starting work on the PPD generator in cups-browsed to allow for creating queues for discovered IPP network printers always with PPDs, even if the information the printers report is insufficient, using default values then. The interface script will stay in cups-filters for now but only used if explicitly asked for via cups-browsed.conf.

 15:49 <tkamppeter> - cups-filters: Looked into a crash of pdftoraster on RGB 1-bit-per-color output discovered by a GSoC student.

 15:49 <tkamppeter> - Google Summer of Code 2016: Guide students through their projects

 15:49 <tkamppeter> - Google Summer of Code 2016: Filled in the mid-term evaluations for both students for OpenPrinting, both have passed mid-term, meaning that they get the first half of their money now and will continue working with us for the second half of the summer.

 15:49 <tkamppeter> - Bugs

 15:50 <willcooke> awesome, thanks tkamppeter
