They're all uploaded now. To the SRU team - these are quite delicate SRUs. I think they're right, but more eyes would be appreciated. The essence is that when nux-tools is removed-not-purged at a buggy version, the leftover conffile is harmful. So we picked a core package, x11-common, and made it stash the conffile away. Then nux-tools will pick it up if it's reinstalled and upgrade it to the fixed version in the normal way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768610 Title: leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nux/+bug/1768610/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

After some digging, it seems that gnome-session incorrectly assumes that my graphics has no acceleration, when in fact it does: it's a i5-2520M CPU @ 2.50GHz with Intel integrated graphics (i915 driver). I've tried this with and without the xserver-xorg-video-intel package (a.k.a. Intel driver) with the same behavior. The output of gnome-session-check-accelerated is: llvmpipe (LLVM 6.0, 256 bits) however the system should have DRM 2.0 capability. GL checks (e.g. glxinfo, glxgears produce the expected output from a working DRM system). mesa-utils and mesa-utils-extra are both installed. I can't find a work around. Perhaps there is something wrong with my install/upgrade? Everything else works fine, although the graphical transitions are no longer smooth. But it would be nice to restore the expected behavior.

> Well, I just wanted to make sure this happened as early as possible, since this is not related to what the package installs, I thought it was better to handle this in preinst, so that this can be also just removed at later times. The thing about the preinst is that it runs super early, you can't even rely on the package's dependencies being installed. In this case we don't use any non-Essential tools, so it's OK, but often this is a problem. We don't *need* to use the preinst, since either the pkg is removed or not removed before we even start installing x11-common - at postinst time it's going to still be removed or it's going to get upgraded to the fixed version. There's a bug in x11-common.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1768610] Re: leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering
Cheers!
My nux-tools review comments apply to x11-common too. The following are
for x11-common:
What's the reason for doing this in preinst rather than postinst
configure? It's fine in this case but usually we do things in postinst
where possible.
What about adding a "Breaks: nux-tools (<<
4.0.8+18.04.20180613.5-0ubuntu1)" to x11-common, and making the script
not do the fix up if we're upgrading from the new version ("if dpkg
--compare-versions "${2}" lt 1:7.7+19ubuntu8; then do stuff; fi")?
I think it's a good idea generally to make fix up actions in maintainer
scripts strictly limited to certain package versions and this will mean
if you still have nux-tools installed you have to upgrade it to the
fixed version, so the removal can only have happened earlier than
x11-common 1:7.7+19ubuntu8.

Yeah, I basically did the same too, but honestly I didn't want to change nux again with another SRU (I preferred to fix this with just one on that side); and most importantly in a such way. As it would now include some checks that depends on changes done in other packages, making from my POV things even more hackish and annoy to matain and easy to be broken. Not that other solutions wouldn't involve the other package (say mesa) to act on nux file, but that should be in a way that nux is not aware of that, creating any kind of "inter-dependency" in between them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768610 Title: leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1768610/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1768610] Re: leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering
This is the solution that I proposed to you in private. It is a fix to mesa (a "common" package) and a followup to nux-tools. It needs some testing. In particular I don't think I picked the right mesa package to use, and we also need to check with the mesa maintainer. There are various version numbers in there that need to be correct for the target release. A basic test worked OK though (libegl1-mesa is because I had it in an even more wrong package at the time).

On a 2nd thinking, if that nux-tools reinstall will happen after this nux SRU landed (and of course assuming that this will be after the "fixing-package" containing the maintainer script has ran too), since the content of the config file will mismatch (being deleted), debhelper will ask to reinstall a new version with the classic: Configuration file '/etc/X11/Xsession.d/50_check_unity_support' ==> Deleted (by you or by a script) since installation. ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1768610] Re: leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering
I've playing with this a bit more to get the fix for the currently affected users who already upgraded to bionic and removed nux-tools, but I don't think there's a solution which works if we keep this marked as a Conffile by dpkg. In fact, using the various rm_conffile or just removing the file from a maintainer script in any other package, then if the user will try to reinstall unity (and then nux-tools), this config file won't be reinstalled, as it's still there according to dpkg. If anyone know a solution in how we can manipulate the dpkg status from a maintainer script, that's the way, otherwise I've no other idea than going back to the solution I proposed in the last night's MPs of removing this conffile from nux-tools itself, storing it in /usr and then symlinking it (with new name) to /etc [1] as mentioned (although for other scenarios) in maintainers guide. So at that point any reinstall will just work, and no purge will affect it. PS: other *ugly* option would be instead to make this other-package (mesa?) to replace in a maintainer script the content of this file with the fixed one, but really I don't want to go in that way.

I'm happy to do it in any package postinst, I was thinking more to keep it somehwere under the desktop team control, as it's something we should care about, while I prefer to have it fixed at least to anyone who has installed ubuntu-desktop. But I agree it's wrong also for other people using desktop under X11 (and who might have just tried unity in the past), so staying lower is fine. If mesa is fine to accept this, I'm happy to do it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768610 Title: leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1768610/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1768610] Re: leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering
I'm adding a mesa task, as this bug also needs to be fixed for people who *already* removed the package without purging it. I suggest mesa, because that's the package that LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 acts on (mostly?) - so fixing it there will fix for everybody whereas ubuntu- desktop or whatever might miss some people. But it's a matter for Marco and the mesa maintainers really. ** Also affects: mesa (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: mesa (Ubuntu Bionic) Assignee: (unassigned) => Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0) ** Changed in: mesa (Ubuntu Artful) Assignee: (unassigned) => Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0) ** Changed in: mesa (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: (unassigned) => Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0) ** Changed in: mesa (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768610 Title: leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1768610/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
