[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2023215] Re: [SRU] appstream-glib can't handle em or code tags, breaking Flathub

[Matthias Klumpp]

Oh no, I thought this was live!
As far as I know, Flathub might be switching to modern AppStream again soon (if 
it didn't do that already even).

Bug description:
  [ 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. See 
https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/5434 for reference.
   * This kind of issue may potentially affect more tools as well.

  [ Test Plan ]

  1. Open a terminal and run
  sudo apt install flatpak

  2. Then run
  flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub 
https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

  3. Run
  flatpak search meld

  The broken output may look something like:
  F: Failed to parse 
/var/lib/flatpak/appstream/flathub/x86_64/active/appstream.xml.gz file: Error 
on line 1960 char 29:  already set '

    tourists, hikers, and cyclists.

  No matches found

  4. Install the updated appstream-glib packages.

  5. Restart your computer then log back in.

  6. Open a terminal and run
  flatpak search meld

  The working output looks something like

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2006110] Re: [SRU] Update to 0.15.2-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy

[Matthias Klumpp]

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 :-)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2006110] Re: [SRU] Update to 0.15.2-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy

[Matthias Klumpp]

This debdiff contains a minimal fix to resolve the noisy assertions (and
potential crash) when searching for AppStream data.

It should be suitable for upload to Jammy.
@tintou, sorry for hijacking the SRU report a bit, in hindsight I should 
probably have filed a new one. This should address the most visible issue 
though without any risk of introducing new problems.

(It would still be nice to have a more recent AppStream in Jammy, but we
can request that later)

** Summary changed:

- [SRU] Update to latest bugfix release for jammy
+ [SRU] Update to 0.15.2-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2019505] Re: Installed software is not showed, local deb files or compiled one in gnome software store

[Matthias Klumpp]

If the package installs a metainfo file into `/usr/share/metainfo` it
should be displayed. Otherwise it will not be displayed, and that is a
design decision by GNOME Software as not enough metadata is available.

  The issue is present regardless of flavor and in 22.04, 22.10 and
  23.04 release.

  Looking on the internet about people having similar problem, I found
  that it could be related to the appstream; to quote Zorin OS devs that
  answered to someone with similar problem with their distro:

  "The Gnome Software Store will not recognize packages installed as .deb 
self-installers. Nor will it see source installs using Make or Ninja."
  "Since this is an appstream metadata issue, no one on the forum can "fix" 
this issue. Only the Gnome Developers can and they were more interested only in 
fixing anything in Gnome-Software that was going into Gnome 4+. There are some 
short term workarounds, like removing the Software Cache files and restarting 
the software store."

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2019137] Re: gnome-software should (?) be separated from the packagekit

[Matthias Klumpp]

Not sure what you mean, but a GNOME Software with no PackageKit would mean that 
users are completely unable to install or remove any application from the 
Ubuntu archive, in addition to flavors not being able to use offline upgrades 
anymore.
So this sounds like a suggestion with tons of huge drawbacks and annoyances to 
users, and no (?) advantage at all.

Title:
  gnome-software should (?) be separated from the packagekit

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Given that the Snap Store is currently the default in Ubuntu instead
  of GNOME Software, the only reason GNOME Software (along with the Snap
  Store) can be installed is to support Flatpak applications.

  In the current instance, if you want to add flatpak support, GNOME
  Software is installed with both the apt packagekit add-on and the
  flatpak plugin, which is duplication of work (Software Updater already
  works on updates, and Snap Store works on showing deb apps).

  And since the future app store explicitly refuses [1], [2] to support
  flatpak applications, users who need this package format will be
  forced to put GNOME Software with everything I pointed out above.

  Therefore, it would be very nice if the developers removed the
  packagekit add-on from the "gnome-software part" and made it a "plug-
  in for gnome-software".

  I, unfortunately, have no such experience with packaging deb packages
  at the moment, and it turns out that it will obviously be necessary to
  work out both the code part (which, as far as I can see, won't be very
  difficult [3]), as well as the part where we will have to figure out
  where and how to insert the plugin as mandatory (for example, when the
  user completely gives up on snap packages) and as optional (because
  the Snap Store already stands).

  Also, let me know if this needs to be sent to upstream (Debian) instead of 
here.

You can verify whether this is an issue with GNOME Software or your metadata by 
opening a terminal and running this command:
appstreamcli what-provides mediatype application/epub+zip

If that yields results, it means that you have the metadata but GNOME
Software doesn't read ir properly for some reason.

This issue does not longer exist in appstream since jammy - so the
quickest fix is to simply upgrade to that release.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1983112] Re: Appstream does not install config file

[Matthias Klumpp]

Very odd... There is nothing special about this config file (it's installed 
like every other) and this works absolutely fine on Debian and even my Ubuntu 
VM.
So, something very odd and possibly uBUNTU-SPECIFIC is going on here...

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1983112] Re: Appstream does not install config file

[Matthias Klumpp]

Did you manually remove the config file before attempting to restore it? 
Because AFAIK `--force-confmiss` will only make the file show up again if it 
was modified compared to the previously deleted version, but otherwise leave it 
deleted in case the user has removed it.
I think you need the whole triplet of `--force-confask,confnew,confmiss` to 
actually get the file back.

[Matthias Klumpp]

I can confirm this bug, and it is not a space issue.
The problem is that is a symbolic link that messes with dpkg unpacking:
ls -lha /usr/share/themes/Yaru/gnome-shell
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 Feb  6  2020 /usr/share/themes/Yaru/gnome-shell -> 
../../gnome-shell/theme/Yaru

This currently prevents updates to Jammy (unless you delete the symlink
first).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1927149] Re: Irrelevant translatable strings

[Matthias Klumpp]

I still think this is a dumb fix, especially since you loose the feature to 
actually mark strings from being untranslatable by dropping the appstream 
dependency.
A proper workaround would be to leave that in, possibly backport the ITS patch 
for appstream to update the file, and then mark the release entries you don't 
want to have translated with `translate="no"` in the XML.

Bug description:
  When building gnome-software on Ubuntu, dh_translations generates a
  translation template (.pot file) to be imported to Rosetta. That
  template includes 700+ log messages from
  data/appdata/org.gnome.Software.appdata.xml.in. The messages are not
  shown to users, and it makes no sense to have those strings
  translated. It's worth mentioning that the strings are excluded in
  upstream's translation template.

  The issue was first reported at the ubuntu-translators mailing list:
  https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-translators/2021-May/007757.html

  I stripped the redundant strings from the template and uploaded it to
  hirsute manually as a temporary measure.

  The reason why this happens seems to be that the appstream package is
  included in Build-Depends. appstream installs the file
  /usr/share/gettext/its/metainfo.its with rules which make all the log
  entries be extracted. But the gettext package installs
  /usr/share/gettext-0.21/its/metainfo.its with more sensible rules
  which do not make the log entries be extracted. If the former is not
  present, xgettext falls back to the latter.

  So a solution to this issue is to drop appstream from Build-Depends.
  gnome-software seems to build fine without that package (tested in
  PPA).

[Matthias Klumpp]

This is not a problem in "appstream", it's usually a package manager issue, 
e.g. if there was a power outage during upgrades or install/remove steps. In 
this case, it just randomly hit the appstream package.
If the APT installation is fixed, this problem should go away. Please file an 
issue against APT in case this is a persistent problem!

  [Impact]

  An attempt to run the isenkram-lookup command from the isenkram-cli
  package results in a segfault/crash. The proposed appstream upload in
   fixes the
  issue.

  [Test case]

  1. Install the isenkram package

  2. Run the isenkram-lookup command

  -> Find that it segfaults

  3. Install the packages built by the appstream source
     package from groovy-proposed

  -> Find that the command succeeds and possibly lists a few
     suggested packages.

  [Where problems could occur]

  TBH this fix is far above my head. Only code comments are changed,
  i.e. some occurrences of "full" are replaced with "container", but it
  still has proved to be it.

  The reasoning in the commit message sounds plausible:

  https://github.com/ximion/appstream/commit/b52858bf

  [Original description]

  I just run the isenkram-lookup command.

  The crash may be related to this autopkgtest failure (which current
  blocks migration of gtk+3.0):

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1903574] Re: isenkram-lookup crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance_cast()

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  An attempt to run the isenkram-lookup command from the isenkram-cli
  package results in a segfault/crash. The proposed appstream upload in
   fixes the
  issue.

  [Test case]

  1. Install the isenkram package

  2. Run the isenkram-lookup command

  -> Find that it segfaults

  3. Install the packages built by the appstream source
     package from groovy-proposed

  -> Find that the command succeeds and possibly lists a few
     suggested packages.

  [Where problems could occur]

  TBH this fix is far above my head. Only code comments are changed,
  i.e. some occurrences of "full" are replaced with "container", but it
  still has proved to be it.

  The reasoning in the commit message sounds plausible:

  https://github.com/ximion/appstream/commit/b52858bf

  [Original description]

  I just run the isenkram-lookup command.

  The crash may be related to this autopkgtest failure (which current
  blocks migration of gtk+3.0):

  This happens on the latest Snap Store on fully updated Ubuntu 20.04.
  When adding a PPA that has packages with AppStream metadata, it should
  be possible to find and install these packages from Snap Store.
  However, when searching for them in Snap Store, no results are found.

  To reproduce this issue, try, for example, add Lutris PPA:
  $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lutris-team/lutris
  $ sudo apt-get update

  Then restart the computer or run "killall snap-store", then launch
  Ubuntu Software again and search for "Lutris".

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1864307] Re: Many apps have no icon in Software on Focal

[Matthias Klumpp]

On a fresh Ubuntu installation, apt-config-icons isn't installed by
default (at least it wasn't when I installed a fresh Ubuntu yesterday,
until I replaced the snap-store with the packaged gnome-software). So
new users who aren't upgrading from a previous Ubuntu version will still
have much less icons than people who get Focal by upgrading from an
older Ubuntu release.

@nicocarbone: You'll also want to do something that `apt-config-icons`
is installed alongside `appstream` in Ubuntu desktops that use the
gnome-software Snap.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1825766] Re: search results don't match apt search

[Matthias Klumpp]

On 1): The metainfo/appdata file is only enough if it is complete, so,
contains an icon reference and name/summary/etc. tags. If it doesn't,
then you'll need the .desktop file as well and a launchable entry.

On 2): All of these locations are wrong ^^ Metainfo files *must* be installed 
into /usr/share/metainfo in order to be valid. Refer to the AppStream 
specification (specifically 
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#spec-component-location)
 for details.
There's also an online tool to help people making metainfo files at 
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/metainfocreator/#/ now

As for that existing "appdata" file, make sure it's actually an
AppStream metainfo file before installing it somewhere else - maybe it
just coincidentally has the same name as a metainfo file, but actually
is something different.

Also, google.chrome and network-manager need their metainfo locations
fixed ;-) It's likely that support for the legacy location will go away
soonish (almost nothing installs files there nowadays).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1864307] Re: Many apps have no icon in Software on Focal

[Matthias Klumpp]

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.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1825766] Re: search results don't match apt search

[Matthias Klumpp]

@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).
Maybe a good case for a patch submission? ;-)

  I don't know what the "bad" output is or how to fix it. All I know is
  that I hope Focal isn't going to be generating this message when it
  ships, because it isn't going to make sense to most people and most

[Matthias Klumpp]

Ooooh, sorry... I was coming from duplicate #1864307, which the patch above 
solves, but I am not sure if this particular issue is solved as well...
So, I don't think #1864307 is a duplicate bug of this, I think those two are 
separate issues (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/issues/918 and 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/issues/929 respectively)
Sorry for the noise, I'll unlink those issue reports.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1872258] [NEW] GS injects invalid metadata, causing "AppStream cache update completed, but some metadata was ignored"

[Matthias Klumpp]

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.

  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. This is an upcoming AppStream feature that
  will potentially be used quite a lot.
* Add update-static-data.patch: Update the license and TLD lists to
  validate newer licenses correctly.
* Bump standards version: No changes needed

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1864307] Re: Many apps have no icon in Software on Focal

[Matthias Klumpp]

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. We've seen this in Debian but I
haven't had the time yet to investigate this further.

[Matthias Klumpp]

Technically, PPAs with AppStream data or other repositories with broken data 
can trigger this as well.
AppStream could make a guess who is to blame for the breakage and give a more 
specific error, but that will require some more extensive code changes.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1861631] Re: "The AppStream system cache was updated, but some components were ignored. Refer to the verbose log for more information."

[Matthias Klumpp]

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.
This is fixed upstream with commit 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/commit/7c1620990b6361fac370b76c9828f8f77ff77a72
 which should land in the next Ubuntu release naturally (but may be 
cherry-picked to make this issue go away even sooner).

  This is pretty much meaningless to most people who have no idea what
  AppStream is and what "verbose log" is being referred to. I dug around
  and managed to discover `appstreamcli refresh-cache --force
  --verbose`, whose output is attached.

  I don't know what the "bad" output is or how to fix it. All I know is
  that I hope Focal isn't going to be generating this message when it
  ships, because it isn't going to make sense to most people and most
  people won't know how to fix it and it causes annoying emails from
  apticron every night.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1794213] Re: Crash on Upgrade preparation from 18.04 to 18.10 in APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success

[Matthias Klumpp]

This is resolved in `appstream >= 0.12.7` (since the code doesn't exist
there anymore). The original issue was likely caused by AppStream not
handling broken metadata correctly, which is an area that has also been
improved greatly.

  This appears to be caused by this line in the appstream.postinst:

  if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" ge-nl "0.12.8"; then

  This gets called when the registered triggers are activated:

  interest-noawait /usr/share/app-info/icons
  interest-noawait /usr/share/app-info/yaml
  interest-noawait /usr/share/app-info/xml

  I recommend checking in the postinst if we are handling a trigger and
  avoiding the dpkg version comparison

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1718453] Re: apt does not download dep11 files for foreign architectures and appstream cannot find applications for these archs.

[Matthias Klumpp]

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.

Bug description:
  I activated Canonical Partners, but Skype did not show up when I used
  gnome-software to search for it.

  I have a theory (unconfirmed):

  I used a 64 bits Xenial, with only amd64 architecture enabled. While
  the .deb package skype is amd64, it's a meta package. The skype-bin
  package, with the important files including the .desktop file, is
  i386.

  So possibly skype would have showed up in gnome-software if I had
  first enabled i386 with

  dpkg --add-architecture i386

  OTOH, even if that's the case, I don't think it ought to be necessary.
  When using Synaptic, skype was shown.

  A possible fix (workaround?) would be to move the .desktop file from
  skype-bin to skype.

  Anyway, I could successfully install Skype from command line, and then
  it showed up in gnome-software. However, bug #1563322 applies to Skype
  too.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1825766] Re: search results don't match apt search

[Matthias Klumpp]

You can expect to find an app in GNOME Software if it is a GUI
application (== has a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications/ that
isn't NoDisplay and of Type=Application). For anything else (that likely
includes phpMyAdmin) GNOME Software isn't the right tool and wasn't
designed for.

Apps will also definitely show up if they have AppStream metainfo files of type 
desktop-application (so service-types are also excluded here, currently).
Also it appears that on Ubuntu Snaps aren't filtered by type.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1799851] Re: Software Boutique window suddenly shows Welcome window and looses all the apps I queued to install

[Matthias Klumpp]

GNOME Software might be the wrong package, the MATE Software Boutique is
a different app. A quick search suggests that it might be part of the
MATE welcome center, but a look into the package couldn't confirm that.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1788112] Re: font-manager does not appear in gnome-software

[Matthias Klumpp]

@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.
So people know about it and there's still plenty of time to adapt :-)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1788112] Re: ubuntu software not synced with synaptic

[Matthias Klumpp]

It would be neat though if font-manager fixed at least the issues listed
at https://appstream.debian.org/sid/main/issues/font-manager.html with
its metadata.

I do actually plan to not have ancient metadata processed anymore at
some point in the future (ancient data is really rare in the archive
nowadays, even).

  This is bad.

  I don't mind having to learn how to deal with either, but PLEASE if
  both are on offer then keep them synchronized.  Alternatively, do away
  with one of them.

Title:
  Delicate failure with Ubuntu when using Firebox email

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I received an email from my healthcare provider, Aetna, requesting
  that I click on a link to take me to my login screen for a list of
  claims - they wanted some information.  Using Ubuntu, the link does
  create a new Firefox window, but that stays white and never progresses
  to anything at all.  Using Windows and Firefox, this new window
  immediately fills up with my login information and claims information,
  exactly as Aetna intended it to do.  I have tried the link with Ubuntu
  multiple times with identical results.  I have rebooted and there was
  no change.  I am up-to-date on updates.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1762292] Re: FFE: Sync appstream 0.12.0-3 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[Matthias Klumpp]

is fixes a bug which basically rendered HiDPI icons completely
  useless in AppStream under Debian/Ubuntu. Having this fix will make
  the use of HiDPI icons in software centers possible.

   * Check plain language string in as_component_localized_get as well

  Apparently, in some circumstances text was not properly localized due to that 
because the function did not check the language code alone after failing to 
find a localized string for the 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.

Status in appstream package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Please sync appstream 0.12.0-3 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

  This introduces a new feature release pretty late in the cycle, so it
  is something to more carefully consider. Even if it's very late, I do
  think upgrading this package in Bionic is a good idea though.

  First of all, it makes upgrading the appstream-generator package to version 
0.7.1-3 possible, allowing people to generate much better and smaller metadata 
for Debian and Ubuntu repositories (and this is what sparked the creation of 
this sync request).
  But there are also many other good reasons.

  This is the NEWS file for the new release, with explanations on why we
  want the respective changes (I shuffled some entries around to form
  logical groups) :

  Version 0.12.0
  ~~
  Released: 2018-04-04

  Features:
   * Implement release types
   * qt: Support release types

  This adds a new feature to the AppStream specification and
  libappstream that allows release metadata to be tagged as
  "development" or "stable" releases. Nothing in Ubuntu uses this, so
  adding will not break anything, but having this in the LTS release
  means upstream projects can use this feature more easily, and Ubuntu
  will understand metadata containing it.

   * Update static data lists
   * spdx: Add some compatibility workarounds for SPDX 3.0
   * validator: Validate SPDX license expressions for metadata_license

  This updates the SPDX[1] license lists to version 3.0 and adds some 
compatibility glue to libappstream to parse the new license strings introduced 
in SPDX 3.0. This is very useful to have, because many projects will start 
using the new identifier, and it makes sense for AppStream in Ubuntu to be 
ready for that.
  Furthermore, it prevents errors from people using the new IDs with older 
AppStream versions (unfortunately, SPDX 3.0 broke the format, AppStream speaks 
all flavors of SPDX now, though)

   * apt: Add config snippets to enable icon downloads

  This results in an easy way for users as well as software centers to
  enable the download of application icon 

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1718453] Re: apt does not download dep11 files for foreign architectures and appstream cannot find applications for these archs.

[Matthias Klumpp]

@donkult: The downloads for all architectures are not allowed at time,
because doing so would lead to AppStream-ID collisions, and AppStream
itself has no notion of architectures (yet - I played around with that a
bit, but there is no definitive good solution yet).

For downloading Components-all, if we would generate such a file, could
APT be configured to download that one unconditionally, no matter what
the Releases file says? Because in that case, we could do quite a few
optimizations to save disk space.

  builds

  e.g. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=888144 for
  frameworkintegration

  I would note that doing test builds on Kubuntu CI, both upstream 5.12

[Matthias Klumpp]

I bet this is because GNOME Software is built with fwupd support, but the fwupd 
daemon is not installed.
Can you please check if the fwupd package is installed on your system?

This doesn't look like it is a bug in appstreamcli... I am not sure what

Are you on a real i386 system, or on an amd64 system with i386 as

[Matthias Klumpp]

Relevant patch: 
https://github.com/ximion/appstream/commit/28f90c3fd1926fa684370e550861a6704eb5498c
I forgot that Ubuntu was using a version that is affected by this - 
interestingly, it only started to manifest now.

I think applying the whole refactoring patch is the recommended thing to
do, instead of "just" fixing the corruption, because doing so will also
fix stock icon handling in this version of AppStream. This should get
some testing though.

Yes, thank you! Please link it here when you have a public ticket (I don't know

Are you sure it creates a *file* with that name? If so, that's a pretty

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1699216] Re: Encrypted home support

[Matthias Klumpp]

Amazing, just last week I added this to my todo list, since I'd need it in 
gnome-initial-setup.
I can test the patches, but ideally these should go upstream in the end.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1698961] Re: System applications can be uninstalled using GNOME Software on Ubuntu 17.10

[Matthias Klumpp]

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.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1643134] Re: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend

[Matthias Klumpp]

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?

Title:
  Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  This is a tracking bug to switch gnome-software from the Ubuntu-
  specific apt backend to the PackageKit backend used by other distros.
  In particular this is the backend used by Debian.

  To build, just uncomment the commented-out packagekit line in gnome-
  software's debian/rules and remove libapt-pkg-dev from Build-Depends.
  (You can also drop aptdaemon from Depends.)

  Changes
  ===
  - It fixes some annoying bugs lingering in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: LP: #1551599.

  - It may also allow us to drop sessioninstaller (LP: #1661371)

  - On an individual app page, Source is listed as something like
  'ubuntu-zesty-universe' or ubuntu-yakkety-updates-main' or 'lp-ppa-
  gnome3-team-gnome3-staging-yakkety-main' instead of just 'Ubuntu'

  - On an individual app page, apps from multiverse or restricted will
  show License as 'Proprietary' (example: VirtualBox or Devede ). This
  also happens for locally installed apps (i.e. not matching what's in
  your apt sources). I don't think it happens for PPAs since everything
  in a PPA is in 'main'.

  - If you install an app using GNOME Software (or I assume another
  PackageKit app), it lists the date it was last installed or updated on
  the individual app page with a link to see its update history. (But
  the problem here is that update-manager doesn't use PK nor does apt on
  the command line.)

  - Any update, no matter how small, is only permitted as an offline
  update. The button says "Restart & Install". It does seem to work fine
  though.

  - Another bug is that installing or Removing an app inside GNOME
  Software is enough for it to "forget" about available Updates and
  think that everything is "up to date".

  (It looks like gnome-software 3.24 will let us completely disable
  gnome-software's update mechanism and the Updates tab by default so
  these previous two differences may be irrelevant then.)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1643134] Re: Switch gnome-software to use PackageKit backend

[Matthias Klumpp]

@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.
