 13:33 <willcooke> #topic didrocks

 13:33 <didrocks> * Desktop Git workflow:

 13:33 <didrocks> - Spent quite some time to analyze and see how to best setup our git branch, using gbp tools as much as possible, but sometimes, fallbacking to git push one

 13:33 <didrocks> - Experimented various cases on the g-c-c branch to test merging new upstream version, what happens when a newer upstream version is in master and we got an older maintenance release on a maintenance branch…

 13:34 <didrocks> - Redacted all this on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/git

 13:34 <didrocks> * SRUed G-C-C with whoopsie, emailed translator team

 13:34 <didrocks> * Communitheme:

 13:34 <didrocks> - Debugged snap dir for themes issues with Ken (which ended up as https://github.com/ubuntu/snapcraft-desktop-helpers/pull/134)

 13:34 <gitlab-bot> ubuntu bug (Pull request) 134 in snapcraft-desktop-helpers "Prepend $SNAP/data-dir to XDG_DATA_DIRS to allow mounting themes there" (comments: 1) [Closed]

 13:34 <didrocks> - Discussed with core team about what to do for cursor theme now that Suru provides one. We found a way and will remove one repo. Review proposed changes, more to be done: https://github.com/ubuntu/communitheme-snap-helpers/pull/13

 13:34 <gitlab-bot> ubuntu bug (Pull request) 13 in communitheme-snap-helpers "Switched to communitheme-icon-theme for cursors" (comments: 10) [Open]

 13:34 <didrocks> * Google codelabs

 13:34 <didrocks> - Rebased and some fixes https://github.com/googlecodelabs/tools/pull/33. Now merged! We can probably rebase tutorials.ubuntu.com on it now.

 13:34 <gitlab-bot> googlecodelabs bug (Pull request) 33 in tools "Implement new md parser" (comments: 22) [Closed] - Assigned to x1ddos (alex)

 13:34 <didrocks> .

 13:34 <willcooke> thanks didrocks, any .1 bugs to talk about?

 13:34 <didrocks> I have one assigned, will look into it this week

 13:34 <willcooke> thx

 13:34 <didrocks> there is apport/whoopsie TODO

 13:34 <didrocks> but you know about that one :)

 13:34 <willcooke> :) and how

 13:35 <didrocks> (waiting for more answers ;))

 13:35 * willcooke is thinking about it, will take some time :)

 13:35 <willcooke> #topic duflu

 13:35 <willcooke> * https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/117: Spent most of my short week revising the zoom fix because some problems were found. The good news is that the same patch now solves even more bugs than before. It will also allow us to use offscreening more to further improve performance in future.

 13:35 <willcooke> * Continued iterating the big performance branches with upstream:

 13:35 <willcooke> - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/119

 13:35 <willcooke> - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/73

 13:35 <willcooke> - Delayed by the unexpected ongoing work in !117 (above).

 13:35 <willcooke> * HELP: BlueZ 5.50 awaiting sponsorship (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1759961)

 13:35 <gitlab-bot> GNOME bug (Merge request) 117 in mutter "clutter: Fix offscreen-effect painting of clones" (comments: 14) [Opened]

 13:35 <ubot5> Ubuntu bug 1759961 in bluez (Ubuntu) "Update to bluez 5.50" [Medium,Fix released]

 13:35 <willcooke> * Daily bug management across gnome-shell, mutter, gdm3, ubuntu-themes, bluez, pulseaudio, dkms, wayland, totem, mpv, libinput.

 13:35 <willcooke> - Lots of time spent triaging and trying to keep the backlog growth to a minimum...

 13:35 <gitlab-bot> GNOME bug (Merge request) 119 in mutter "renderer-native: Reference count front buffers." (comments: 70) [Opened]

 13:35 <willcooke> - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRDHPxGBHqM6XkT_S8ggtYfD0xchKSUD_z9PopNVE3G1rU05fVSnxDGcDsEstl7gu7N-tzCU6mLUp2V/pubchart?oid=254968654&format=interactive

 13:35 <gitlab-bot> GNOME bug (Merge request) 73 in mutter "WIP: renderer-native: CRTCs now hold front buffer refs." (comments: 42) [Opened]

 13:35 <willcooke> --- last week (already sent but it was after the last meeting) ---

 13:35 <willcooke> * Cosmic regressions:

 13:35 <willcooke> - Help! Cosmic daily images broke recently (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1775743)

 13:35 <ubot5> Ubuntu bug 1775743 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "[regression] Cosmic daily images 20180606-11 install but boots only to grub prompt on EFI systems" [Critical,In progress]

 13:35 <willcooke> * BlueZ update:

 13:35 <willcooke> - Prepared version 5.50 for cosmic - now awaiting sponsorship (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1759961)

 13:35 <willcooke> * Mutter update:

 13:35 <willcooke> - Prepared a bugfix+performance update for mutter - awaiting sponsorship (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1767648/comments/20)

 13:35 <ubot5> Ubuntu bug 1767648 in mutter (Ubuntu) "Top bar and shell dialogs are not displayed properly when zoom is enabled" [High,In progress]

 13:35 <willcooke> * Continued iterating the big performance branches with upstream:

 13:35 <willcooke> - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/119

 13:35 <willcooke> . Fixed the blocking issues upstream complained about.

 13:36 <willcooke> . Finally got up to final testing: hybrid GPUs, only to find mutter is broken (nothing to do with my code). So maybe I'll need to look at fixing https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/182 before being able to test this fully.

 13:36 <gitlab-bot> GNOME bug 182 in mutter "Using two GPUs with one monitor each, one is always black" (comments: 5) [Opened]

 13:36 <ubot5> Error: Gnome bug 182 could not be found

 13:36 <willcooke> - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/73

 13:36 <willcooke> . Continued improvements, but not finished yet. Depends on !119 anyway.

 13:36 <gitlab-bot> GNOME bug (Merge request) 73 in mutter "WIP: renderer-native: CRTCs now hold front buffer refs." (comments: 42) [Opened]

 13:36 <willcooke> * Daily bug management across gnome-shell, mutter, gdm3, ubuntu-themes, bluez, pulseaudio, dkms, wayland, totem, mpv, libinput.

 13:36 <willcooke> - I decided to bite the bullet and do something about the xorg backlog. Expect to see it dropping over the coming weeks...

 13:36 <willcooke> - Solid progress: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRDHPxGBHqM6XkT_S8ggtYfD0xchKSUD_z9PopNVE3G1rU05fVSnxDGcDsEstl7gu7N-tzCU6mLUp2V/pubchart?oid=254968654&format=interactive

 13:39 <willcooke> - SRU verification of gnome-software on Xenial. The verification of gnome-software is currently blocked in Xenial due to a regression (featured app banner is broken cf my comment in bug 1597314) until further investigation by Robert.

 13:39 <willcooke> - Continued with the ubuntu-report dashboard.

 13:39 <willcooke> heber, anything you want to add?

 13:40 <willcooke> guess now

 13:40 <willcooke> not

 13:40 <willcooke> #topic kenvandine

 13:42 <kenvandine> nope

 13:42 <willcooke> #topic Laney

 13:42 <Laney> • systemd --user:

 13:42 <Laney> ∘ Got a working sequence for x11 (g-s-d needs to start before gnome-shell) and wayland (after), after much head scratching and feeling stupid

 13:42 <Laney> ∘ doing build system integration and tidying up (make optional in GDM)

 13:42 <Laney> ∘ after that works, can start pushing some MRs and stuff, probably make a PPA

 13:42 <Laney> • autopkgtest:

 13:42 <Laney> ∘ there was a systemd PR which broke the MTU made the runners fall over, hassled the submitter and provided debugging info. some guy tried to blame netplan but it was innocent, ohohohoh

 13:42 <Laney> ∘ chatted to server team guys about rabbitmq OOMing since it's "theirs", need to collect some figures about memory usage over time

 13:42 <Laney> • rls bugs all done, think they are holding on releasing gstreamer until it's out in cosmic, so might help look into -proposed problems to move that along

 13:42 <Laney> • some reviews for Marco

 13:43 <Laney> • some chats about git packaging stuff

 13:43 <Laney> • HR review things

 13:43 <Laney> ⚽

 13:43 <willcooke> thanks Laney

 13:43 <willcooke> #topic seb128

 13:43 <seb128> • still some post-holidays catching up

 13:43 <seb128> • spent most of the week on HR things/reviews

 13:43 <seb128> • reviewed/sponsored the bluez update from Daniel

 13:43 <seb128> • verified some bionic SRUs

 13:43 <seb128> • emailed the OEM team about getting the bolt/g-c-c tb panel SRUs verified

 13:43 <seb128> • some trello board/bugs reviews

 13:45 <seb128> well, some SRUs that have been verified have useful fixes

 13:45 <seb128> both from those items yes

 13:45 <willcooke> or rather the rls list

 13:47 <seb128> I didn't see him active on IRC today

 13:48 <willcooke> #topic rls -bugs

 13:48 <willcooke> Looking at http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-bb-incoming-bug-tasks.html first

 13:48 <willcooke> Looks fine

 13:49 <willcooke> Looking at: http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-bb-tracking-bug-tasks.html

 13:50 <willcooke> Everything looks assigned that should be

 13:50 <Laney> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1776499 that one

 13:50 <ubot5> Ubuntu bug 1776499 in mesa (Ubuntu Bionic) "Crash in libegl-mesa0 due to out of bound array access" [Undecided,New]

 13:50 <Laney> probably just assign that to Timo

 13:51 <seb128> +1

 13:51 <didrocks> yep

 13:51 <Laney> (done)

 13:51 <willcooke> thanks Laney

 13:51 <Laney> there's a lot of Fix Committed

 13:51 <Laney> including mine

 13:51 <Laney> we should make an effort to clear those out

 13:52 <willcooke> Could that be a topic for sun sprint?

 13:52 <Laney> if it's not just aging srus

 13:52 <willcooke> Since most of you will be in the same place

 13:52 <seb128> SRUs are mostly clear

 13:53 <Laney> feels like that list doesn't really go down in size

 13:53 <seb128> there are 2 apps update to verify but otherwise our list seemed cleaned on friday

 13:53 <Laney> but I could be wrong

 13:53 <Laney> (get that on grafana?)

 13:53 <seb128> or new things adds up to it to replace the one clearing out

 13:53 <seb128> but yeah

 13:53 <seb128> I'm going to review it post meeting, I don't think we need to hold the meeting on that

 13:53 <Laney> dunno, I think there's a lot of old stuff

 13:54 <Trevinho> ops sorry guys, my alarm didn't ring

 13:54 <willcooke> :)

 13:54 <willcooke> #topic Trevinho

 13:54 * didrocks checked his, still in proposed

 13:55 <seb128> didrocks, it just aged to 7 days today

 13:55 <seb128> so that's normal

 13:55 <seb128> hopefully they move it on their next proposed->updates review round

 13:55 <didrocks> wasn't complaining, just telling it's normal :)

 13:55 <seb128> yeah

 13:55 <Trevinho> · Ported nux and some other unity legacy stuff to git

 13:55 <Trevinho> · Prepared gnome-shell git branches for SRU and 2.28.2

 13:55 <Trevinho> https://code.launchpad.net/~3v1n0/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+git/gnome-shell/

 13:55 <Trevinho> · Continued some fixes on nautilus

 13:55 <Trevinho> · Preparing for the sun sprint

 13:55 <Laney> ok, seems you think there's no problem, fine

 13:55 <willcooke> thanks Trevinho, eof?

 13:56 <Trevinho> · Nux and x11-common fixes to fix unity lefovers

 13:56 <seb128> Trevinho, is somebody reviewing your g-s update?

 13:56 <Trevinho> seb128: Laney did I need to rebase it again

 13:56 <seb128> Laney, I'm going to have a look post meeting to make sure

 13:56 <Trevinho> Ah, also prepared g-s merge with debian for C

 13:57 <Trevinho> that's all folks (well not all, but lots of other small things no need to mention)

 13:57 <willcooke> thanks Trevinho

 13:57 <willcooke> #topic AOB

 13:57 <willcooke> k, so we're happy with the bugs list

 13:57 <willcooke> anything else for now?

 13:58 <willcooke> 1m timeout

 13:58 <Laney> I think you missed my suggestion to graph the size of those lists over time

 13:58 <Laney> or like incoming / outgoing bugs on it

 13:58 <Laney> that's it

 13:58 <seb128> or the everage age of the items

 13:58 <willcooke> Laney, ah, nice idea.  I'll ask jibel if it can be done. Well, jibel can it be done? ^

 13:58 <seb128> or/and

 13:59 <seb128> he's off

 13:59 <willcooke> jibel is out, so we will find out tomorrow

 13:59 <seb128> right

 13:59 <willcooke> anyone got anything else?

 14:00 <willcooke> in which case

 14:00 <willcooke> #endmeeting
