So even perfectly written JS and GObject code in gnome-shell was still leaking, thanks to GJS (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/merge_requests/114). We'll definitely grab that as soon as something lands. 13:36 - Massive texture leak from last week; seems to have vanished after Easter!? (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/160) Although I would expect the GJS fix to probably resolve it, based on where I got up to. 13:36 Ubuntu bug 1672297 in gjs (Ubuntu Bionic) "gnome-shell uses lots of memory, and grows over time" [High,Triaged] 13:36 * Gnome Shell performance fixes: 13:36 GNOME bug (Merge request) 114 in gjs "WIP: Queue a GC when a toggle reference goes from >1 to 1" (comments: 7) [Opened] 13:36 - Made another serious attempt at reducing gnome-shell's CPU requirement.

But after I implemented the trivial docs change they requested, found another bug. So then spent a day redesigning the algorithm. 13:36 GNOME bug (Merge request) 70 in mutter "clutter: Smooth out master clock to smooth visuals" (comments: 0) [Opened] 13:36 - Relevant note from last week: My first improvement to Wayland graphics performance is due for imminent release with mutter 3.28.1 this week. 13:36 * Bluetooth: 13:36 - The main complaint this week turned out to be a non-bug. Users often mistake benign log messages for being related to other problems they experience. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754836) 13:36 Ubuntu bug 1749546 in Fontconfig "duplicate for #1754836 Booting a live session is slow - fontconfig regenerates its font cache" [Medium,Confirmed] 13:36 * Libinput: 13:36 - More time spent hardware testing and updating bugs. 13:36 - NEWS: v1.10.4 has been tagged upstream, with a good improvement in responsiveness for many touchpads (because I kept reporting bugs upstream and identified what needed backporting). IMHO though it's still only half as good as what's in master (future v1.11). 13:37 * Daily bug management across gnome-shell, mutter, gdm3, ubuntu-themes, bluez, pulseaudio, dkms, wayland, totem, mpv, libinput. 13:37 - Pleasing progress this week: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRDHPxGBHqM6XkT_S8ggtYfD0xchKSUD_z9PopNVE3G1rU05fVSnxDGcDsEstl7gu7N-tzCU6mLUp2V/pubchart?oid=254968654&format=interactive 13:38 No mention of that bug above I think 13:38 kk, lets speak to duflu in the morning about that one 13:38 right 13:39 lots to read there too, will do that in amo 13:39 #topic jbicha 13:39 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/?field.assignee=jbicha 13:39 • Filed multiple gnome-initial-setup (ubuntu-welcome) bugs 13:39 • Customized gnome-initial-setup's logo and name https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-settings/18.04.2 13:39 • Completely dropped the imagemagick .desktop to fix multiple issues 13:39 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/imagemagick/8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-16ubuntu6 13:39 • Split gnome-startup-applications to separate binary pkg to allow it to be uninstalled LP: #1756788 13:39 Launchpad bug 1756788 in gnome-session (Ubuntu) "Removing "Startup Applications" in "Ubuntu Software" makes the system unable to launch GDM" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1756788 13:39 • Allowed totem to be uninstallable from GNOME Software 13:39 • Built bionic's webkit2gtk with gstreamergl, fixing unpausing videos LP: #1752197 13:39 Launchpad bug 1752197 in webkit2gtk (Ubuntu Artful) "Videos won't resume after being paused" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1752197 13:39 • GNOME 3.28.1 releases 13:39 • Announced call for nominations for DMB 13:39 https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2018-April/001241.html 13:39 • No current bionic rls tracking bugs 13:39 🌄 13:40 confirmed your rls list is empty. Thanks jbicha 13:40 #topic jamesh 13:40 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/?field.assignee=jamesh 13:40 snapd: 13:40 * finished a secure bind mount implementation that passed Jamie's 13:40 security review: we carefully open file descriptors for the mount 13:40 source and destination, and then perform a mount between 13:40 "/proc/self/fd/NNN" paths, which avoids all the symlink attacks. 13:40 * Rebased my old user-mounts branch to filter out the parts that have 13:40 been landed separately. Combining this with the secure bind mount 13:40 implementation, and I think we've removed all the blockers for landing 13:40 it. We will then be able to properly support xdg-document-portal 13:40 (i.e. trusted helper file open/save dialogs) 13:40 * I still need to follow up on theming: it isn't clear when we can 13:40 expect the snapcraft features to avoid including boilerplate plug 13:40 declarations. Perhaps the best option is to publish gtk-common-themes 13:40 along with information about what boilerplate an app developer needs 13:40 to include to access the themes. 13:40 community: 13:40 * I'm giving a talk about confined apps on the Ubuntu desktop at 13:40 tonight's PLUG meeting. 13:40 rls list is empty. 13:41 #topic jibel 13:41 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/?field.assignee=jibel 13:41 * Bionic Beta 2 testing 13:41 * Verified the fontconfig fix.
