1. GNOME 3.8 has only been tested with gnome-settings-daemon 3.8 and there's no guarantee that things work correctly when we mix and match pieces. 2. Since we did the gsettings-desktop-schemas update, there are gsettings keys that won't actually do anything without the updated gnome-settings-daemon backend. Even without doing the gnome-control-center 3.8 update, it would be nice for GNOME users to be able to tweak some of the new settings in dconf-editor at least. 3. We need to update this cycle because we need to fix bug 1201679 which is a High priority regression in Unity (GNOME was unaffected). 4. There are numerous other fixes and improvements if you read through the NEWS file. The update isn't just GNOME dropping Fallback support and we've patched back in the fallback pieces that Unity currently needs. 5. Tim did a lot of work on this update with the assumption that it could make it into Saucy. We were delayed several weeks by indicator-keyboard taking longer to land than expected. I tried to help indicator-keyboard along as well as I could and complained that the longer the delay, the more difficult it would be to land gnome-settings-daemon 3.8 by Feature Freeze.

1. GNOME 3.8 has only been tested with gnome-settings-daemon 3.8 and there's no guarantee that things work correctly when we mix and match pieces. the pieces that are the most matched are gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-control-center, which are both in sync on 3.6 at the moment. Does that mean you plan to FFe gnome-control-center as well (saying the number of changes in g-c-c 3.8 I doubt it's a good idea to do that at the end of the cycle) 2. Since we did the gsettings-desktop-schemas update, there are gsettings keys that won't actually do anything without the updated gnome-settings-daemon backend. Do we have those exposed to users anywhere or is that a dconf editor issue? We might also want to just drop those keys from the schemas if you think that really confuses users 3.

The update isn't just GNOME dropping Fallback support and we've patched back in the fallback pieces that Unity currently needs. Right, there are lot of changes in there, which makes me cautious, gnome-settings-daemon has little automated testing and it's a somewhat fragile component. 5. Tim did a lot of work on this update with the assumption that it could make it into Saucy. We were delayed several weeks by indicator-keyboard taking longer to land than expected. I tried to help indicator-keyboard along as well as I could and complained that the longer the delay, the more difficult it would be to land gnome-settings-daemon 3.8 by Feature Freeze. Right, thanks Tim for the work! The work is not wasted in any case, even if that only lands next cycle. Things being less trivial than expected is not a real reason to grant a FFe though, as you pointed we still have fallout from 3.6 ibus migration we didn't sort out, it seems like what we need is extra work on stabilization rather than changing that much late in the cycle There was one final regression that Tim fixed over the weekend. Ubuntu GNOME shouldn't be penalized for taking care not to cause regressions and waiting for Unity work. It's not a matter to be penalized, what is the direct impact at the moment on Ubuntu GNOME (out of not having the latests upstream version)? The argument can go the other way around, Ubuntu GNOME wanted to be on the current version is not a reason to create instability from Unity/Ubuntu... I've been running Unity all weekend to make sure that the update didn't cause any new problems. Many people have installed the GNOME3 Staging PPA; some of those people use Unity. That's good to know! To summarize my opinion: from the past record I would be careful to update gnome-settings-daemon that late in the cycle, that's a component that drives many settings in the desktop and which is not easy to test. Having gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-control-center out of sync is something we avoided so far, because it has extra potential to create issue, and I'm still unsure that's something we should try... Anyway, I'm going to let the release team review the request.

Does that mean you plan to FFe gnome-control-center as well (saying the number of changes in g-c-c 3.8 I doubt it's a good idea to do that at the end of the cycle) gnome-control-center 3.8 is about 90-95% ready and has quite a few improvements Ubuntu GNOME really wants. But there's too much work to be done to land now with zero regressions. We could really use Canonical help for the remaining work but obviously you guys have other pressing requirements this week. So no, I don't plan to file a FFe for gnome- control-center 3.8 for 13.10. On the other hand, we've talked for a long time about possibly forking gnome-control-center so that there's both a mostly vanilla gnome- control-center and a Ubuntu tweaked version in the repositories (but it won't be possible for both to be simultaneously installed). gnome- control-center is in good enough shape for GNOME — it's just the Unity integration that needs more work — so we might still do a FFe for that proposal if we agree that the benefits outweigh the negatives. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1219486 Title: FFe: Update gnome-settings-daemon to 3.8.4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1219486/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1219486] Re: FFe: Update gnome-settings-daemon to 3.8.4
Running gnome-shell 3.8 on gnome-settings-daemon 3.6 is likely to be very buggy and unstable. Although admittedly it hasn’t had a huge amount of testing since the assumption was that we would get g-s-d 3.8 into saucy. For the 3.8 cycle many features were moved out of gnome-settings-daemon and into other components such as mutter and gnome-shell. Most of these however require code changes in g-s-d to use the new components. Other than this there were not really many new features added to g-s-d and it is largely just a big bug fix release. - OSD Popups are now drawn by gnome-shell so that they match the shell UI. - Keygrabber was moved into gnome-shell, since there were lots of issues with media_keys keybindings not working in certain parts of gnome-shell - Background plugin was moved into mutter - Screenshots are handled by gnome-shell. - Power support is pretty much broken when using g-s-d 3.6 All of these were moved to overcome technical limitations making it hard or impossible to fix key bugs. In most cases by sticking with 3.6 we do not get to take advantage of these new components and we are left using the old unmaintained and buggy implementations. In addition there are lots of bug fixes for things like power plugin, notifications etc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1219486 Title: FFe: Update gnome-settings-daemon to 3.8.4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1219486/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1219486] Re: FFe: Update gnome-settings-daemon to 3.8.4
As for mixing g-s-d 3.8 with g-c-c 3.6, apart from a few moved gsettings keys there are no major issues. A lot of work went into improving a number of the upstream panels (particularly network, power and region panels), and there a number of new panels (notifications, privacy etc). However these changes are more or less contained to g-c-c and don't introduce incompatibilities for g-s-d. Clearly Ubuntu GNOME really wants g-c-c 3.8 for these improvements. The remaining Unity issues are all mostly trivial, however have basically been blocked waiting on input from the desktop team. As far as I know no one even bothered to look at this, even when I was working on these issues very early in the Saucy cycle. Nearly all the work I did on g-s-d was to fix Unity Integration. g-c-c was split more evenly between general ubuntu integration and unity integration.

We didn't get the upload in by Feature Freeze because we were waiting for indicator-keyboard to land in Saucy to make sure that this upload didn't cause any regressions with the input method support. There are no known remaining regressions with this upload. + + I can no longer reproduce bug 1201679 with this build. gnome-control-center also needs updating (for moved gsettings keys and similar) and gnome-shell needs a patch to be dropped.
