[Bug 2006110] Re: [SRU] Update to 0.15.2-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy
Since it's a race condition, it's hard to reproduce. The most reliable way to do so is with Flatpak 1.14.x, which isn't part of Jammy. So, if you're fine with having this potential issue for other tools in the OS, that apparently isn't triggered by anything currently in Jammy, then this doesn't need to be addressed. The more important immediate issue is the one in appstream-glib, and that's being fixed :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to appstream in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2006110 Title: [SRU] Update to 0.15.2-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/flatpak/+bug/2006110/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 2023215] [NEW] [SRU] Update to 0.7.18-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy
Public bug reported: [ Impact ] * Currently, any application that is using modern AppStream metadata containing / tags in their description, and that is still using the deprecated appstream-glib will fail to parse this data. * Unfortunately, this affects some high-visibility applications now, like Flatpak, which are unable to perform proper searches.

On 1): The metainfo/appdata file is only enough if it is complete, so, contains an icon reference and name/summary/etc. tags.

On 2): All of these locations are wrong ^^ Metainfo files *must* be installed into /usr/share/metainfo in order to be valid.

[Bug 1864307] Re: Many apps have no icon in Software on Focal
Actually, I just realized that Ubuntu has its very own, new flavor of this bug due to shipping gnome-software as a Snap. The `appstream` package is seeded with the minimal desktop seed, which is good, but in order for the Snap version of GS to install any icons, the `apt-config-icons` package also has to be installed - GS isn't smart enough to fall back to downloading icons in many cases and expects those to be present. The `gnome-software` package depends on the icon config, but the Snap store doesn't have this on new installations. So, to fix this issue both the patch I linked in this report and a default dependency on `apt-config-icons` is needed. The reason the `appstream` package doesn't depend on the icons on its own is that the data may also be used on servers and more minimal systems (e.g. for firmware and driver information) where downloading the icons isn't required. Therefore, all software centers in Debian/Ubuntu depend on the `apt-config-icons*` package(s) they need. ** Changed in: gnome-software (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1864307 Title: Many apps have no icon in Software on Focal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-software/+bug/1864307/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1825766] Re: search results don't match apt search
@stuardo: The reason for Guake being missing is that the `guake.desktop` file in `/usr/share/applications` is a symbolic link *and* the application doesn't ship a metainfo file. This is forbidden: https://wiki.debian.org/AppStream/Guidelines The .desktop file being a symlink results in Guake basically not being seen by the metadata generator at all. To fix this, either the .desktop file needs to be an actual file, and not a symlink, or a metainfo file[1] has to be shipped with this package. Ideally both. The reason this package is missing is simply a result of nobody caring enough to submit a patch or do a bit of work to make this app show up for a few years now (it never was in the catalog, as far as I can tell).

[Bug 1872258] [NEW] GS injects invalid metadata, causing "AppStream cache update completed, but some metadata was ignored"
Public bug reported: Hi! GNOME Software currently injects invalid AppStream metadata in Focal, causing a complaint message like "AppStream cache update completed, but some metadata was ignored due to errors." on every APT update. This can be fixed by applying this patch from upstream and Debian, which was present in GNOME's release candidate but was accidentally reverted: https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-software/-/blob/05553c1bfa2124a12e3afe5c63de510310377036/debian/patches/02_fix-appstream-featured-data.patch Debian already ships this patch.

[Bug 1867471] [NEW] FFe: Sync appstream 0.12.10-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)
Public bug reported: Please sync appstream 0.12.10-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main) Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception: This revision pulls in a few changes from upstream to fix issues or prevent future annoyances: fix-free-license-check.patch A plain bugfix to the "is this a free license?" check of AppStream, which was introduced in this release. In the current version, licenses which are non-free may incorrectly be considered free. There isn't much stuff using this feature yet, but when it does we may as well give a correct result. ascli-explain-in-manpage.patch A simple non-functional manual page addition, since people apparently had a hard time to find the "--explain" switch for the AppStream validator. There is no potential for regression in this patch. ignore-control-relation-in-validator.patch Control relations are defined in the upcoming version of the AppStream specification and define how an application is controlled (keyboard, touch, ...). This feature is potentially used *a lot* and the current validator in Ubuntu will consider the usage of this tag invalid. With this patch, this tag isn't considered an error anymore, which should annoy users and developers much less when they are working with AppStream data on the LTS release. update-static-data.patch This just updates the license ID list to what is current in the SPDX registry. The regression potential of all of these changes is very low. Having them will greatly improve the experience of users with AppStream metadata in Ubuntu, and hopefully may lead to less bug reports upstream ;-) A full debdiff of the changes is attached. The biggest change is the non-free-licenses fix, all the other changes are simple few-line changes or just update static data or help text. Thanks for considering! Changelog entries since current focal version 0.12.10-1: appstream (0.12.10-2) unstable; urgency=medium * Add fix-free-license-check.patch: Non-free licenses were previously considered free software, this patch fixes that * Add ascli-explain-in-manpage.patch: Explain the `--explain` flag for `appstreamcli validate` in the manual page as well * Add ignore-control-relation-in-validator.patch: Don't fail validation if control relations exists.

[Bug 1864307] Re: Many apps have no icon in Software on Focal
There are two things which could be the cause for this: 1) The appstream-generator used for Focal is old, and there were quite a few fixes to find more icons and ignore apps without sufficient icon data in more recent releases. @laney will hopefully update the tool ;-) 2) GNOME Software has a bug which makes it always load stock icons for applications, even if they are actually not available on the system and GS should fall back to the cached icons.

This error message is shown not to alert users, but rather make users report these issues to the distributor, as this particular issue means the distributor has a mistake in their metadata somewhere. In this case it's not Ubuntu's fault directly, but rather GNOME Software injecting invalid metadata.

[Bug 1718453] Re: apt does not download dep11 files for foreign architectures and appstream cannot find applications for these archs.
At this point, I think it's safe to say that implementing full multiarch support for AppStream simply isn't going to happen, at least not anytime soon. It's simply easier for app authors to provide native implementations for amd64 instead of relying on i386 compatibility. If support was implemented fully, we would download lots of additional big metadata and run into all kinds of troubles of which app gets selected when there are ID conflicts. Resolving all of these issues is possible, but the huge effort IMHO doesn't justify the gains. If someone else works on this, I'd assist the work, but I will unlikely work on this myself. I originally intended to, but TBH, this issue has really low priority nowadays. There is a workaround for high-profile packages that are only available on one architecture: *If* i386 support is enabled by default, the appstream-generator can be instructed to inject metadata for a specific package directly into the final metadata collection. See https://github.com/ximion/appstream-generator/blob/master/docs/asgen- config.md#injecting-extra-metainfo--removing-components for details. This is intended to be used for adding web applications, but may work for the multiarch case as well, at least for a select few of high- profile application packages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to appstream in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1718453 Title: apt does not download dep11 files for foreign architectures and appstream cannot find applications for these archs.

[Bug 1788112] Re: font-manager does not appear in gnome-software
@jbicha: Those changes will *never* affect a released Debian or Ubuntu version, only in-development stuff. The earliest point I actually would consider making such a change is after the Debian Buster release and at least one release before the next Ubuntu LTS. Also, the amount of packages with issues should be really low at that point, ideally be zero. And all the things that I might adjust yield at least an AppStream warning-type hint for 2-3 years already, and the old-location one is a Lintian warning too.

e locale. Improved localization is a good thing. * qt: Define location and soname for all configurations, not just Debug This patch has been in Ubuntu before. Without it, Qt applications using AppStream wouldn't build at all in release mode. * Never override high-quality data with incomplete .desktop data Fixes an issue that would override more complete metadata with less complete versions and also change the metadata after the user installed an application. * Make data update script work with recent SPDX Just a maintenance improvement on the source code itself with no impact on the installed binaries and data. * Add a timeout to URL validity checks Before, appstreamcli would just hang forever when validating on systems with no network access, causing some annoyances especially on CI systems. The package is not causing issues in Debian and other distributions, so far there have been no new bug reports. In general, I think the risk of new issues is low, especially because the new features don't impact the existing common code paths much and are additions (although obviously there is no such thing as no regressions risk). I think the bugfixes especially on HiDPI icons and metadata replacement, as well as features like the updated SPDX license library and SPDX 3.0 support and that updating this package allows for a more recent appstream-generator package to be included make it reasonable to update the package.

Looks like a compulsory_for_desktop tag is missing then: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-CollectionData.html#tag-ct-compulsory_for_desktop Or it's set incorrectly. In any case, this tag should be in effect now that Ubuntu is running the full GNOME, so I don't know why GS still allows you to remove key components like GS itself. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1698961 Title: System applications can be uninstalled using GNOME Software on Ubuntu 17.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1698961/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1643134] Re: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend
Regarding GStreamer: Iain has made a patch for that: https://github.com/hughsie/PackageKit/pull/193 - looks good to me, and will definitely be in the next PK release / the Debian packaging. To the second point: Couldn't the PK plugin be extended to support live updates by default if set as a compile-time switch? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643134 Title: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1643134/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1643134] Re: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend
@jbicha: That was for Ubuntu's aptd GNOME Software backend, using Debconf with PackageKit is a little different (shouldn't be too hard to add, and I am rather confident that hughsie would even allow this feature upstream). So, in Debian we'd need the PK version, as aptd is dead and removed from Debian. I did run a couple of tests with Debconf-using stuff and GNOME Software about a year ago, and the behavior then was that the questions didn't get asked but the transaction also wasn't blocked (as expected). So, adding proper Debconf support to GS is "nice to have" at this point, but not essential at Debian. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643134 Title: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1643134/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1643134] Re: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend
Oh, with "essential" I mean RC-worthy or important-for-the-release. Long term, we likely do want Debconf to work (I haven't had time to look into it yet though, that's why I like that Robert apparently looks into it now). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643134 Title: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1643134/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1643134] Re: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend
Richard hates stuff asking questions during installation ;-) - that's *the* longest discussion we had, since PackageKit's inception: ``` What is Hughsie's law? A joke that started on IRC late one night in '07. Put formally it is: Authentication or license prompts can only be done before the transaction has started, and messages or notices about the transaction can only be shown after the transaction has completed. ``` (no sure why this isn't on the PK FAQ anymore) If the aptcc PackageKit backend receives a request to be noninteractive, it should set the Debconf frontent to `noninteractive` and disable everything that could potentially ask questions. This should at least prevent the update process to hang on Debconf prompts. I guess we could enable Debconf prompts for GS though (maybe make it configurable, so Fedora and other distros can be non-interactive by default), as apparently it seems to work okay at Ubuntu for the current aptd backend. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643134 Title: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1643134/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
