[07:18] <oSoMoN> good morning desktoppers
[07:23] <didrocks> good morning
[07:32] <pieq> salut les desktoppers :)
[07:34] <oSoMoN> salut didrocks, pieq
[07:38] <didrocks> salut pieq, oSoMoN
[07:38] <pieq> a friend of mine (running 19.10) saw that Firefox 73 was released and was wondering why he didn't have it in the repo yet. I told him to be patient :) but I was wondering what was the process from the desktop team
[07:39] <duflu> Morning oSoMoN, didrocks, pieq
[08:21] <jibel> pieq, he could use the snap. 73 is in the candidate channel
[08:21] <jibel> bonjour BTW
[08:24] <pieq> jibel, merci, je transmets. But I was just curious about the current debian packaging process.
[08:53] <oSoMoN> pieq, the process is the following: I push the new version to the current devel series (currently focal) and I prepare backports for all supported releases in a PPA, which I then validate and hand over to the security team for publication
[08:53] <oSoMoN> the security team does their own validation and verifications, and then publish to the -security and -updates pockets
[08:54] <oSoMoN> firefox 73.0 is ready for publication as far as I'm concerned
[08:55] <oSoMoN> it should hit {bionic,eoan}-{security,updates} very soon
[08:55] <oSoMoN> (xenial is a different matter this time, blocked on bug #1856861)
[08:55] <ubot5> bug 1856861 in firefox (Ubuntu) "Firefox 73 require C++17, not available in xenial" [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1856861
[09:07] <pieq> oSoMoN, thanks a lot for the explanation!
[09:07] <oSoMoN> you're welcome

[11:32] <tkamppeter> Some core dev around here? Could you have a look at bug 1862926? It updates SANE to make the scanning in nearly all modern multi-function printers work and hopefully also stops users from mucking around with HPLIP (bug 1766020).
[11:32] <ubot5> bug 1862926 in sane-backends (Ubuntu) "Request for update: SANE 1.0.29" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1862926

[12:39] <ogra> oSoMoN, my chromium madly spams my journal with denials recently ...
[12:39] <ogra> ogra@acheron:~$ journalctl |grep chromium|grep -c DENIED

[12:41] <ogra> (i assume an issue with the "refresh awarenes" ? )
[13:49] <sil2100> jibel: hey! You around today?
[13:51] <jibel> sil2100, hi
[14:24] <GunnarHj> Wimpress: Do you possibly have time to sponsor the debdiff at bug #1861481?
[14:24] <ubot5> bug 1861481 in lightdm (Ubuntu) "language-options causes live CD sessions to be untranslated" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1861481
[14:43] <oSoMoN> ogra, that sounds like it, indeed. Do you have experimental.refresh-app-awareness set to true?
[14:43] <ogra> let me check
[14:44] <ogra> nope, only hotplug in the output ...
[14:44] <ogra> should i set it for next update ?
[14:45] <oSoMoN> ogra, I highly recommend it
[14:46] <oSoMoN> I've had it on for a few months and it works nicely
[14:46] <ogra> ok ...
[14:46]  * ogra will watch the logs after next update ...

[15:18] <Wimpress> GunnarHj: Let me take a look.
[15:20] <GunnarHj> Wimpress: Sure. I'm here if you need any clarifications.
[15:20] <Wimpress> Looks sensible to me, sadly lightdm is not in my package set :-(
[15:22] <GunnarHj> Wimpress: What?? it's in the ubuntu-mate packageset, and I took for granted that you were one of the uploaders.
[15:26] <GunnarHj> Wimpress: https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/packagesets/focal/ubuntu-mate
[15:26] <Wimpress> lightdm is in the ubuntu-mate packageset? #TIL
[15:27] <Wimpress> OK, leave that with me. I'll take a look later.
[15:28] <GunnarHj> Great. :)
