Land the patch but but don't upload until something else requires with upload? 13:41 I think it doesn't need to be targetted, Laney seems to have a preference for doing it 13:41 staging in the Vcs wfm 13:41 OK. 13:41 +1 13:41 You owning that seb128 ? 13:41 k 13:42 http://launchpad.net/bugs/1891478 13:42 Ubuntu bug 1891478 in orca (Ubuntu) "orca ftbfs in focal (amd64 only)" [High,Confirmed] 13:42 It's less helpful than ideal for e.g. the security team, but maybe that's ok 13:43 Marcus might want that one ^- 13:44 ok 13:44 thx 13:44 Done 13:44 http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-ff-tracking-bug-tasks.html 13:45 seb128: Do we review things tagged Wishlist? 13:47 yes 13:47 http://launchpad.net/bugs/1891733 13:47 Ubuntu bug 1891733 in language-selector (Ubuntu Focal) "Support better Arabic font" [Wishlist,Confirmed] 13:48 Looks like Laney and GunnarHj are working on that one. 13:48 GunnarHj seems to be on that so I would soimply assign to him 13:48 yeah, not me, I just gave my (wanted or not) opinions :-) 13:48 but Gunnar is actively on it 13:49 I think that concludes ff-tracking as we know about the SPICE issue. 13:49 assigned it to GunnarHj 13:49 #topic rls-gg-bugs 13:49 http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-gg-incoming-bug-tasks.html 13:49 All fine. 13:49 http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-gg-tracking-bug-tasks.html 13:50 Also fine. 13:50 #topic update_excuses_by_team.html#desktop-packages 13:50 https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses_by_team.html#desktop-packages 13:51 Can say Firefox 80 will be released next week, if someone feels like packing :P 13:51 icu migrated that gave us a shorter report :-) 13:51 luna_, Olivier will be back to handle that 13:51 seb128: perfect 13:51 Wimpress, nothing to worry about there, firefox/thunderbird are partially victims of reverts done to get icu to migrate 13:51 got reminded when i saw 78/79 on the top of the list 13:51 dnsmasq is being handled by others 13:52 OK 13:52 libreoffice and udisks are known to be flaky and being retried 13:52 i read that as retired :) 13:52 Yeah, I uploaded some packages last night. Random failures on arm. Rebuilds worked. 13:53 #topic AOB 13:53 Anyone have anything? 13:54 kenvandine, you wish :) 13:54 nothing for me 13:54 :) 13:54 Anyone in the desktop team wants to own golang-gopkg-ini.v1? 13:54 https://trello.com/b/sdyPskaS/gnome-338 13:54 please help 13:54 I can't handle that alone 13:55 udisks was meant to get unflaky with the latest upload, guessing that didn't work 13:55 tkamppeter: WHy are you interested in that package? 13:55 To complete bug 1891157 13:55 bug 1891157 in golang-github-openprinting-goipp (Ubuntu) "[MIR] ipp-usb" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1891157 13:55 Laney, there is a 2.9.1 out, I'm waiting for that to be uploaded to see if that makes a difference and if not I will spend some time on it 13:55 To replace the flaky and now deprecated ippusbxd by ipp-usb 13:56 To make IPP-over-USB reliably work. 13:56 seb128: ok, I was heading towards asking for us to assign that as a task :> 13:56 Sounds like you have a vested interested in maintaining that package tkamppeter :-) 13:57 indeed 13:57 https://openprinting.github.io/OpenPrinting-News-August-2020/#ipp-over-usb-ippusbxd-and-ipp-usb 13:57 As last mean I take it. 13:58 Is Go itself alreadfy in Main? 13:58 tkamppeter: Yes 13:58 Anything else to discuss? 13:58 Can i ask another random question, when kinda does the Translation things for Groovy starts? 13:59 tkamppeter: i think your use case is the only interesting one for desktop 13:59 Laney, I'm going to card it so we don't forget with a note to test with .1 to start 14:00 GREAT! 14:00 :-) 14:00 All done? 14:00 snapd is written in Go? Am I right? 14:00 yes 14:00 (but they are vendoring their deps, so not using that package) 14:01 luna_, it's already started, https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ 14:01 So Snaps will only get into ChromeOS when the guys rewrite snapd in Rust. 14:01 EOM 14:01 indeed! 14:01 #endmeeting
