15:45 <willcooke> #topic Laney
15:45 <Laney> • Spent a lot of time working on autopkgtest this week
15:45 <Laney> ∘ Handheld the workers, gave arm64 lxd machines more capacity on their root partition, redeployed one of them to test - need to do the rest
15:45 <Laney> ∘ Tracked down a hard to find bug in the lxd workers - turned out to be botched rebooting
15:45 <Laney> ∘ Poked at linux/i386 tests which were OOMing and looping, effectively DoSing the infrastructure - blacklisted for now until they fix that
15:45 <Laney> ∘ Helped the kernel team identify a buggy script that was submitting requests that nobbled the workers
15:45 <Laney> • release: Fielded various requests to skip tests and stuff
15:45 <Laney> • Debugged a few autopkgtests and fixed them
15:45 <Laney> • New gdk-pixbuf @ Debian, autosynced in
15:45 <Laney> • Been rebasing gnome-software up to latest gnome-3-22. Looking like there's a deadlock bug in the branch; investigating.

15:46 <willcooke> #topic qengho
15:46 <qengho> Yay!
15:46 <qengho> Hi folks. Just one line, my new-year's resolution:
15:46 <qengho> Get ahead of Chromium releases. I'm tracking and building beta now, in a new "horizon" PPA for zesty. So, when Cr beta is promoted to stable, there won't be surprises. The bad part is that it's more work. Good side is that package updates should be much sooner.

15:48 <willcooke> #topic TheMuso
15:48 <willcooke> * More reports coming in on bug 1574324 with people still having problems. I need to ask them to test with the initial versions of pulse in xenial or yakkety. Who knew that bluetooth could be this painful. :(
15:48 <willcooke> * Put the latest release candidate of pulseaudio v9.99/10.0 in the ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/pulse-testing PPA. Had to do some porting work with some patches, plan to test in coming days, particularly bluetooth. This is for Zesty.
15:48 <willcooke> * Experiencing some issues with orca in GNOME terminal/in VTE applications. Seems to work fine in other distros using GNOME 3.22, but we have a newer VTE so need to do some more digging.
15:48 <willcooke> * Updated at-spi2-core from Debian since Ian's change caused Orca to take ages to load. Hopefully the changes that were made in Debian are satisafactory now, since they are based on upstream proposed fixes.
