@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️

If you are a distributor, please try to not change the default or at least let us (or me directly) know why you’d need to still ship the X11 session.

@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️ So I guess that would settle it 17:12:40

@andrew15_5:matrix.orgAndrewI manage software myself, why would it spin up this process that hogs almost 400 MiB for nothing?01:37:18
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar systemd generates services for desktop files in $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/autostart 08:32:41
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar(among other paths)08:33:20
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan TojnarIIRC gnome-software has autostart file so that it can notify you of updates08:33:55
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar though we only install it if you have flatpak installed, you can use environment.gnome.excludePackages to not install it if you do not use it 08:35:18
@uep:matrix.orguepah. I looked to see if I had the same, and it was nowhere to be seen. 08:36:32
@uep:matrix.orguepSo, yeah, confirmation that this works. It may be slightly too magic, but it works.08:37:44

@grimmauld:grapevine.grimmauld.deGrimmauld (any/all)I just saw this in the GTK room: https://pad.gnome.org/lB9NBpwCSmKEzZIVve__Vg# How will this work for nix? Currently glycin directly depends on gtk4, which directly depends on gdk-pixbuf, which probably should depend on glycin.21:19:07
@grimmauld:grapevine.grimmauld.deGrimmauld (any/all)which means we have a cyclic dependency. How do we break it?21:19:23
@grimmauld:grapevine.grimmauld.deGrimmauld (any/all)supposedly glycin would be cycle-free, but our package wouldn't be. SO some work required!21:28:07
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyusually we just have a separate bootstrap version of a package that omits the problematic dependency21:32:51
@grimmauld:grapevine.grimmauld.deGrimmauld (any/all)So i had a chat with the glycin people, and supposedly it is cycle-free in gnomeOS21:35:30
