15:38 <willcooke> #topic hikiko
15:38 <willcooke> - I spent most of the time debugging unity, also looked at the rolling
15:38 <willcooke> windows bug but I haven't fix it yet.
15:38 <willcooke> - I also finalized some stuff for the low gfx mode and I am looking for
15:38 <willcooke> further optimisations that could be done in compiz and unity.
15:39 <willcooke> #topic Laney
15:39 <Laney> hi pals
15:39 <Laney> • Made Unity 7 have XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Unity:Unity7, so that the new terminal could have NotShowIn=Unity7. This exposed a few bugs where stuff assumed there was one value in the variable. I fixed a lot of these, but not being confident this close to release that I can get them all, reverted it and applied another (hacky) fix.
15:39 <Laney> • Patch piloted & reviewed stuff for f_lexiondotorg and Kylin
15:39 <Laney> • Some fixes to gnome-session & upstart for unclean session recovery (systemd)
15:39 <Laney> • Debugging of bad environment variable propagation affecting im-config (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im-config/+bug/1630090) - thanks to pitti for the help / rubber ducking
15:39 <ubot5> Ubuntu bug 1630090 in upstart (Ubuntu) "Upstart sets D-Bus activation environment incorrectly if variable's value contains an "=" (was: $XMODIFIERS not set correctly)" [High,Triaged]
15:39 <Laney> • Much MUCH queue review
15:39 <Laney> • Testing of non-stripping of .pyc files on the Ubuntu Desktop ISO & coming up with a plan of implementation (Z-cycle)
15:39 <Laney> • Theme fixes & landing (hidpi icons branch)
15:39 <Laney> • Deployment of new armhf-on-arm64 lxd workers for autopkgtest, thanks pitti²
15:39 <Laney> • Now: investigating overlapping nautilus icons (#1611955, doesn't happen every time)
15:39 <Laney> 😭
15:40 <willcooke> thanks Laney
15:40 <willcooke> #topic qengho
15:40 <qengho> Hello, my pretties.
15:40 <qengho> * Final switching of Cr build system from GYP to GN. GYP dies with v54. REALLY wants me to use clang. :(
15:40 <qengho> * Fixed Cr 53.0.2785.143 for Y. Was a libc/kernel incompatibiltiy bug. Gave to #security for upload.
15:40 <qengho> * New version of browser snap. 2 hours after upstream release. So nice.
15:41 <qengho> * Sent Google API trouble through side channels.

15:41 <Sweet5hark> - bumped LibreOffice on Yakkety to 5.2.2 (thanks Laney for sponsoring)

15:41 <Sweet5hark> - build LibreOffice 5.2.2 as snap
15:41 <Sweet5hark> -- tried to upload, but store rejected with "oops" lacking any further feedback, couldnt find help about it => punted
15:41 <Sweet5hark> - Currently working again on a CGAified theme using ugly colors to find out what triggers the theming for bug 1527053

15:41 <Sweet5hark> -- (looks e.g. like this: http://people.canonical.com/~bjoern/ambience-cga.png)
15:41 <Sweet5hark> -- good progress, should yield another vendor patch like bug 1562513 did => 0-day SRU candidate?
15:41 <Sweet5hark> - upsteam bug: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101898 likely also a candidate for a 0-day SRU?
15:41 <Sweet5hark> - finally a heads-up: Xorg guys might want to have a look at bug 1625595, corrupted rendering on Intel drivers

15:42 <ubot5> bug 1527053 in libreoffice (Ubuntu) "Tab names unreadable in GTK3 in Ubuntu" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1527053
15:42 <willcooke> * More work on bug 1574324. More info was posted to the bug from another user experiencing the bug, who has also started digging through code, which is helpful.
15:42 <willcooke> * Uploaded more fixes for the ubuntu terminal app.
15:42 <willcooke> * Yakkety iso testing, experiencing a weird bug on a UEFI machine where the UEFI entry for Ubuntu is not added, but can't easily reproduce. Accessibility profile activation works when done from the desktop, but not in installer only mode. Not entirely bothered by this, its not an LTS and probably can't easily be fixed by release.

15:46 <willcooke> #topic AOB
15:47 <willcooke> Potentially seeding U8 before the reviews are complete to get a bit more runway for testing.  Being discussed with Foundations and others atm
