[Bug 1825587] Re: non-existent temporary desktop file appears on desktop
Using an upgraded 19.04 system, I enabled proposed and upgraded libfm- qt6 to 0.14.1-0ubuntu2.1. The change does not take affect immediately, but does after stopping and restarting pcmanfm-qt. That can also be accomplished by logging out and back in or by restarting. That said, it clearly does not require any no-change rebuild of pcmanfm- qt so that comment in the regression potential was merely being cautious based on previous experience. It is true that this doesn't change the ABI so the statement is irrelevant. ** Tags removed: verification-needed-disco ** Tags added: verification-done-disco -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825587 Title: non-existent temporary desktop file appears on desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lxqt/+bug/1825587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hello Walter, or anyone else affected, Accepted libfm-qt into disco-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libfm- qt/0.14.1-0ubuntu2.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-disco to verification-done-disco. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-disco. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: libfm-qt (Ubuntu Disco) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-disco -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825587 Title: non-existent temporary desktop file appears on desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lxqt/+bug/1825587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1825587] Re: non-existent temporary desktop file appears on desktop
I have accepted the SRU into disco-proposed. That being said, the regression potential field mentions "The immediate concern is that pcmanfm-qt could require a no-change rebuild, since it is closely tied to libfm-qt" which is a bit hard to understand for me. Looking at the patch, it doesn't seem to affect the API/ABI, so I was wondering how it could warrant a rebuild of pcmanfm-qt. How does pcmanfm-qt use libfm-qt? Does it pull it in statically during build or something? Or maybe does this actually affect the ABI? I'd like to know that before we proceed with verification. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825587 Title: non-existent temporary desktop file appears on desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lxqt/+bug/1825587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1825587]
Fritz, the reason you see quick fixes is because LXQt is actively being developed, unlike LXDE, which hasn't been in a long, long time. There's a reason why every new release of Lubuntu was essentially a maintenance release. Anyways, it sounds like the consensus is that though this has a relatively small impact, it's ugly and offensive enough that we should do a SRU. That means that we should see it in Disco relatively soon. Part of that process will involve some editing of this bug report. Then when the fix is uploaded, it will go to "Fix Committed." Finally, when the package with the fix is available in the repositories, it will go to "Fix Released." At this point, running an update on libfm-qt and pcmanfm-qt (since it's built based on libfm-qt) will resolve the issue. Until then, you cannot really do anything with the file since it doesn't exist. The work around is in the description: 1. Open pcmanfm-qt 2. Go to the Desktop folder 3. Refresh the folder (F5) Now the errant file will not return, no matter whether or not you check shortcuts on or off. It will return when you log in again, though. One other thing: the issue here is a timing issue, and it will be made worse with less resources. That means that sometimes you might have the issue and sometimes you might not. It's bizarre.

[Bug 1825587] Re: non-existent temporary desktop file appears on desktop
@Fritz the key to understanding what that means is that it's changed in *lxqt* rather than in *libfm-qt*. The LXQt project is a catch-all that allows us to link bugs on Launchpad (our bug tracker) with those upstream in LXQt (in GitHub, to be exact). It will auto update when changes have been made. libfm-qt, you'll see refers to the Ubuntu package, or the Ubuntu version of libfm-qt. That version does not include this fix. Instead, upstream have provided a fix, though technically not one that has been released in a new version of libfm-qt (it's a little confusing that it says "fix released" as it should be "fix committed" instead). Generally, we provide new packages as new releases become available. There's generally not a lot of good justification to managing individual patches during a development period. But that depends on how upstream's release schedule coincides with ours. In any case, it will be in Eoan one way or another. We could work on ensuring it's in Disco, as we should be able to pull in just the patch that fixes it, but it will require testing and a bunch of paperwork. Since it has a relatively small impact, I'm a little disinclined to go through all that, but we're discussing it. We'll update the bug if we go this route. ** Package changed: pcmanfm-qt (Ubuntu) => libfm-qt (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825587 Title: non-existent temporary desktop file appears on desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lxqt/+bug/1825587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
