14:57 <Laney> that is accepted, I think the tag needs to be removed (and someone should be assigned) 14:57 <Laney> maybe these ones, but don't think that is true in general 14:57 <Laney> works for this week though 14:57 <seb128> right 14:58 <seb128> I looked at those before suggesting we do the desktop-set 14:58 <Laney> ok cool 14:58 <seb128> I should have stated that 14:58 <seb128> anyway 14:58 <Laney> just wanted to make sure we didn't miss stuff 14:58 <seb128> thx for that :) 14:58 <seb128> g-s-d ... any taker? 14:59 <Laney> sure 14:59 <seb128> Laney, thanks! 14:59 <seb128> that might be the same issue that the session timeout 14:59 <Laney> maybe, if so I don't see that so might be difficult to look at 14:59 <seb128> well I guess we will know when both are investigated 14:59 <Laney> I'll have a look 14:59 <seb128> feel free to bounce back to me if you can't reproduce 15:00 <seb128> I can try here, maybe with my old laptop I'm more lucky :p 15:00 <seb128> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1750995 15:00 <ubot5`> Ubuntu bug 1750995 in gnome-session (Ubuntu Bionic) "Logging out live session takes several minutes" [High,New] 15:00 <seb128> looks like we handled that previous week, just need to be untagged I guess?

and ask them to open new reports 15:04 <jbicha> do you need me to try to file a new bug? 15:04 <seb128> jbicha, the nvidia one? 15:05 <tseliot> jbicha: yes, please 15:05 <seb128> jbicha, or the xorg session corruption? 15:05 <jbicha> the graphical corruption for xorg is not fixed.

I was referring to nvidia 15:05 <seb128> jbicha, did you upstream the xorg one? 15:06 <seb128> tseliot, can you close and ask whoever still has it to open a new report? 15:06 <tseliot> seb128: sure 15:06 <seb128> thx 15:06 <Laney> I got 390 today, going to restart in a bit ;-) 15:06 <jbicha> seb128: could be GNOME 3.28 but we also had mesa stuff landing in bionic at the same time 15:06 <seb128> good luck :) 15:06 <seb128> jbicha, they landed a bit earlier and was in proposed for a while ... but yeah 15:07 <Laney> one to accept I think 15:07 <seb128> yes 15:07 <jbicha> I guess we should try filing a mutter bug upstream to see what they think 15:07 <seb128> sound like one that duflu could look at 15:07 <seb128> jbicha, do you want to do that? 15:07 <seb128> if not I ask duflu tomorrow if he can poke at it 15:08 <jbicha> let's have duflu do it! ;) 15:08 <seb128> k 15:08 <seb128> next is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1749688 15:08 <ubot5`> Ubuntu bug 1749688 in xorg-lts-transitional (Ubuntu Bionic) "16.04 HWE -> 18.04 = xorg held back (+ partial breakage because of it)" [Undecided,In progress] 15:09 <seb128> I'm untagging it since it's targetted for bionic & assigned 15:09 <tjaalton> I have that on a ppa 15:09 <seb128> good 15:10 <seb128> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-power/+bug/1718254 15:10 <ubot5`> Ubuntu bug 1718254 in unity-greeter-session-broadcast (Ubuntu) "please drop url-dispatcher dependencies" [Critical,New] 15:10 <seb128> that sounds like a bb-notfixing to me 15:10 <Laney> yep 15:10 <seb128> x_nox fixed the most important issue by making url-dispatcher not to depend on unity-scopes-api 15:10 <Laney> we might even want to drop our team from the unity stuff 15:10 <seb128> which was the stack with net-cpp creating issue 15:10 <Laney> then they don't show up here at all 15:11 <seb128> good point 15:11 <seb128> I'm going to do that 15:11 <jbicha> seb128: can I get a +1 to remove those 2 indicator packages I mentioned on that bug?

15:12 <seb128> k, let's call it a plan then 15:13 <seb128> that's it for the list 15:13 <Laney> not too bad 15:13 <seb128> Laney, thanks for the reminder and notes! 15:13 <seb128> indeed 15:13 <seb128> though we do have a bunch of bugs assigned to people 15:13 <Laney> anything on tracking to check up on? 15:13 <seb128> which we don't actively track 15:13 <Laney> or next week maybe because of sprint 15:13 <seb128> I'm unsure if we could/should 15:14 <seb128> tracking? wdym? 15:14 <Laney> http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/rls-mgr/rls-bb-tracking-bug-tasks.html 15:14 <seb128> ah, I guess that's the counter part which are the ones we accepted 15:15 <seb128> I had forgotten about that 15:15 <Laney> yeah 15:15 <seb128> good, that replies to my previous question 15:15 <seb128> but yeah, I guess we didn't do much progress since the sprint/travelling 15:15 <seb128> so let's start reviewing it next week 15:15 <Laney> maybe it should be a status update item 15:15 <Laney> give a line to assigned rls bugs or something 15:16 <seb128> we used to do that I think :) 15:16 <seb128> good idea 15:16 <Laney> doomed to reinvent the past 15:16 <seb128> let's talk to willcooke about it once he's back 15:16 <Laney> ok 15:16 <seb128> on that note I guess we can #aob 15:16 <seb128> kenvandine, ^ can you topic back to aob? ;) 15:17 <kenvandine> #topic aob 15:17 <seb128> thx! 15:17 <jbicha> Laney: I wanted to follow up on last week's git discussion 15:18 <jbicha> the plan for now is to push ubuntu/ branches to LP, right? 15:18 <Laney> think so 15:18 <Laney> that's my proposal anyway 15:18 <jbicha> and we're not worried about preserving bzr history? 15:18 <seb128> we didn't discuss that topic 15:18 <seb128> but I guess that's not really doable, is it? 15:19 <kenvandine> probably not worth the hassle 15:19 <Laney> not sure how you would, seems really hard to interleave it in the git stuff 15:19 <seb128> did Debian preserve any svn history when they migrated? 15:19 <jbicha> I personally don't care about the bzr history 15:19 <Laney> yeah, there was an export 15:19 <Laney> I'd just push "this branch is dead" to all of them when they move 15:19 <jbicha> seb128: yes we managed to preserve most of the svn history 15:19 <Laney> and then you can go back to see the history if you're an archaeologist 15:20 <seb128> if they did it for svn we should be able to do it for our bzr using similar tools? 15:20 <jbicha> seb128: are you volunteering yourself? ;) 15:20 <seb128> for any repo I'm migrating yes 15:20 <seb128> :) 15:20 * Laney doesn't like trolling on this topic :( 15:21 <Laney> you'd have to like 15:21 <Laney> go back and find the base debian revision for each commit 15:21 <seb128> sorry 15:21 <Laney> check out that tag and then merge into it 15:21 <seb128> do you know how Debian did it for the svn? 15:21 <Laney> and then roll that forward up to the present 15:21 <Laney> yes, an svn export which was then carved up and converted to git 15:22 <seb128> the principle/tools wouldn't easily apply to our bzr repos? 15:22 <seb128> I guess we are going to end up deciding it's not worth the effort 15:22 <Laney> now we have a repository with the history from svn in it 15:22 <seb128> but it's a bit sad to loose the history 15:22 <Laney> so you have to go back and insert the bzr commits at the right place 15:23 <jbicha> it ended up taking years for Debian GNOME to get around to converting from svn to git 15:23 <seb128> just because of them wanting to keep history? 15:23 <jbicha> a straight bzr-to-git conversion would be easier, but interleaving it with the new Debian git repo is more complex 15:23 <seb128> well, I guess we don't have enough resources to work on that 15:23 <Laney> what you could do is convert the stuff to git 15:23 <Laney> and put it in a different branch 15:24 <Laney> so it's right there to look at but not in the history on master 15:24 <seb128> +1 from me to not converting, even if it makes me sad to nuke records of years of work done by our team 15:24 <seb128> how do other feel? 15:25 <seb128> didrocks, kenvandine, ? 15:25 <kenvandine> sorry... let me read back 15:25 <didrocks> yeah, I don't feel it worths the effort 15:25 <kenvandine> not worth it imo 15:25 <didrocks> at worst, we keep old branch around 15:25 <didrocks> for history! 15:25 <didrocks> :) 15:26 <seb128> k 15:26 <seb128> Laney, jbicha, there you go :) 15:26 <jbicha> (Debian had a bit more urgency because we were concerned about the svn repos being removed completely) 15:26 <seb128> right 15:26 <jbicha> and we're cool to move packaging to git now, right? 15:26 <seb128> still stuck to pretend all the work we did didn't exist 15:27 <seb128> I don't think we decided on that 15:27 <seb128> and the meeting has already been an hour today 15:27 <Laney> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/pncJWS68YP/ 15:27 <Laney> jbicha: for next cycle 15:28 <seb128> we should get to a consensus/update the post on the community hub 15:28 <seb128> or maybe start with a few selected repos to see how it goes 15:28 <jbicha> what about for stuff in main that doesn't have an Ubuntu packaging branch yet? I think gvfs was a good example of one of these packages 15:29 <seb128> just to validate the workflow/etc 15:29 <seb128> jbicha, I would prefer to delay to next cycle, let's rediscuss next week 15:29 <seb128> we don't have good Ubuntu contributor documentation 15:29 <seb128> and I'm concerned that changing now is going to impact people work for the LTS 15:29 <jbicha> I'm working on 3.28.0 stuff this week is why I'm asking now :) 15:29 <seb128> like now you want to fix a bug in gvfs and you need to dig into using new tools 15:30 <seb128> learning new workflows 15:30 <seb128> fixing potential fallouts, etc 15:30 <seb128> that's not what we want to be spending time on atm 15:31 <didrocks> I guess that's what we wanted to discuss that post-FF, to plan for starting it on the 18.10 cycle 15:31 <jbicha> gvfs is also a package that is basically maintained in Debian right now. There is a trivial diff that I don't think can be easily pushed in to Debian 15:31 <seb128> next cycle is no far 15:31 <seb128> jbicha, I disagree with that, I did a gvfs upload some days ago to fix an autopkgtest issue 15:31 <jbicha> yes and I had to push it to Debian for you :| 15:31 <kenvandine> +1 on holding off just a little longer 15:31 <seb128> it would have been much more annoying if the packaging had been in git 15:31 <kenvandine> we're close to closing out bionic 15:32 <kenvandine> hate to risk slowing anything down 15:32 <seb128> k 15:32 <seb128> I think that close the topic (for this week at least)? 15:32 <kenvandine> +1 15:32 <didrocks> yes 15:32 <seb128> other topics? 15:33 <jbicha> kenvandine: (at least for me, having to push stuff to bzr too slows me down) 15:33 <kenvandine> jbicha, understood... i think for now whatever is easiest? 15:33 <jbicha> (but I'll let this discussion end) 15:33 <jbicha> kenvandine: (lol) 15:33 <kenvandine> i'm anxious to change as well, but might not be a great time for folks to learn their way around 15:33 <kenvandine> going once... 15:34 <kenvandine> twice... 15:34 <Laney> yes (sorry!) 15:34 <kenvandine> lol 15:34 <kenvandine> snuck that in 15:34 <Laney> :-) 15:34 <Laney> anyway quick one I think 15:34 <didrocks> the install in my vm didn't finish, you can go on ;) 15:34 <Laney> http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring/ was wondering if we should all give some time to sponsoring each week before release 15:35 <kenvandine> #topic Laney's quick one 15:35 <kenvandine> :) 15:35 <Laney> desktop team patch pilot 15:35 <Laney> #goodguys 15:35 <kenvandine> #topic patch pilot 15:35 <kenvandine> +1 15:35 <kenvandine> would be good to trim that down 15:35 <seb128> people are busy enough so I don't think we should make a requirement 15:35 <seb128> but +1 if people could spare some hours to help on that 15:35 <Laney> that means no 15:35 <Laney> ok then, was just an idea 15:36 <kenvandine> #endmeeting
