Subject: Request for merging "gnome-team" branch
Date: Sun, 19 Jan 2025 22:09:23 +0100

Hi Guix,

with most of its packages bumped to 46 and 65% substitute availability
(same as master), I think gnome-team is on a good track to be merged
eventually.  At the same time 65% isn't *that* high and there are other
branches to merge before that, so I'd like our collective intelligence
to help contributing fixes for various bugs, non-x86 arches, the usual.

We'll probably be skipping GNOME 47 again so that we can jump straight
to GNOME 48 come March.  For the time being, I will not be opening a
new branch, however; so gnome-team is effectively now in a "please only
add fixes, kthx" mode.

Cheers

“core-packages-team” is officially next in queue, before “gnome-team”:

  https://qa.guix.gnu.org/

However, since that branch is not ready, I would suggest letting you go
first, as was just discussed on IRC, unless you’re not ready to merge it
in the coming days.

It's a tough call.  QA looks red for gnome-team on everything but
x86_64 [1] and I will be away for a few days starting tomorrow with no
access to my commit machine.  We could still merge today and fix the
breakages later, but I fully understand if that's not what we want.

Cheers

Hi!

This branch bumps xdg-desktop-portal, which introduces an issue with theming no 
longer applying (related [1]). There's an open patch [2] that fixes it for me, 
although there still appears to be open questions on how it should be resolved; 
is this worth blocking for?

What’s the status of the branch?

There seems to be a growing list of branches waiting to be merged after
this one:

Could you check whether this still issue persists with GNOME 46?  IIUC,
newer GNOME should expose all the DBus methods that make theming work
as expected.

Substitutes look good atm – I particularly like that we have 49% armhf
packages over on bordeaux – but there's no comparison to the merge
base, I do need a rebase and if possible I'd like to know that the
branch is good to go for ARM/RISC-V users too.

you may already be aware of it, but I am just understanding that
   https://data.qa.guix.gnu.org/repository/1/branch/master
has a list of commits on master handled by the data service.
You may want to choose the upmost commit that has a green tick
for rebasing.

PS: Given our lack of build power for these two architectures, I do not
    think we can afford waiting for them and thereby delaying the next
    topic branches. Currently we have 10 of them queued up!

I am waiting for human feedback more so than machine feedback.  
I've rebased on 3c6bcbad213ad88e7574da14ed005a8b764e2d7e now, which
should yield a comparison soon.

Yes, I can confirm that the issue exists GNOME 46, with system generation 
currently based on commit 9f563c42adcaf68d301340d0adb47563bfc60a87.

I didn't find any GNOME apps that output errors about this, but starting the 
KeepassXC flatpak (which is also affected by the theming issue) shows this message:

```
(keepassxc:2): Gdk-WARNING **: 20:09:18.966: Failed to read portal settings: 
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface 
“org.freedesktop.portal.Settings” on object at path /org/freedesktop/portal/desktop
```

which is not present on a reconfigure with the mentioned patch applied.

Hmm, there are only 11 dependents, so if you rebase your patch(es) on
current gnome-team, I can merge them before we go.  Please don't forget
to CC the team :)
