@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparafound it, mutter bug: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/441612:53:32
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparafixed in mutter 49.212:54:21
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparaIs there a PR that includes mutter 49.2? Otherwise I'd open a PR12:54:59
@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparais it even OK to update mutter on it's own or would that require other packages bumped as well? I'll just try for now.13:01:42

@capypara:matrix.orgCapyparadoes somebody know where the NixOS GNOME team coordinates? None of them seem to be active here, I'd love to help out with the next updates, but don't really know the processes yet.16:43:57

@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️Are there any users of geary, the GNOME mail client, here? I'm thinking of just submitting a request to remove it as it isn't part of GNOME core apps and the cinnamon module removed it in 24.1116:49:15
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️ I'm not sure whether to remove program module and the package, or just remove it from gnome.nix 16:49:40
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️I want to remove the package since it's basically not receiving any new feature updates since GNOME 46 besides updating deps and not even Cinnamon ships it (and they keep all the old GNOME stuff)16:51:06
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️ Pantheon just switched to their own mail app because they're pantheon and they rock. 16:53:40
@schuelermine:matrix.orgschuelermineOn my system when I open GNOME apps they always open with a delay of ~2 seconds. Anyone have a clue what might be the cause? From the terminal output it looks like they’re waiting for something on D-Bus22:20:43

@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) Yeah I use it 02:57:59
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) Definitely don't remove it outright, its the only usable gtk mail client 02:58:19
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping)Not enabled by default is fine though02:58:31
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️I see, why not use thunderbird specifically?02:58:58
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) its kind of ugly 03:00:38
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping)geary with adw-gtk4 is nicer03:00:47
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping)I'd prefer a GTK4/libadwaita app ofc03:02:23
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping)but theres not a usable one03:02:28
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️ I hope development picks up again on geary, but I think disabling it is the right decision to make. 03:10:09
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️Thanks in the meantime though03:11:14
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️ * 03:11:45

@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️https://discourse.gnome.org/t/is-there-any-project-for-email-client-based-on-gtk-4/3282803:12:43
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️ I'd hope there is a GNOME core email app in the future because that would really help with the contacts/calendar/online accounts integration. 03:15:44
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) I think not having it enabled by default is fine, but it should still be an option 03:16:53
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping)Someone is currently working on a gtk4 port, after all03:17:05
@marcel:envs.netMarcel Evolution is integrated very well into online accounts. 09:09:47
