 Jan Tojnar | And it was not clear to me from the bug report what is actually causing the issue, only that Fedora somehow fixed it | 23:28:57 |
| Jan Tojnar |
Maybe the GNOME Shell patch fixed it (but it sounded like a hack and the instructions do not really look like the issue has anything to do with gnome-shell) | 23:29:24 |

 hmenke | Some more research on this:

- https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1821
| 06:54:55 |
| Jan Tojnar | hmenke: yeah, 0001-gdm-Work-around-failing-fingerprint-auth.patch is the patch I was referring to. The MR !1821 is already in Nixpkgs. | 11:58:39 |

|  maxine (they/them) changed their display name from maxine [they] to maxine (they/them). | 12:04:13 |
| 19 Jul 2021 |
 hpfr | bit of a long shot, but is steam's big picture broken for anyone else on gnome wayland? | 02:57:13 |
| hpfr | nvm, I found it's fixed in a nixpkgs PR | 02:59:55 |

| Josh Ponelat | Hey folks, I recently upgrade (channel) to 21.05, and now gnome is gnome4. Is there anyway I can get it back to gnome3? There is an extension that I need in gnome3 | 14:23:45 |
|  leznom joined the room. | 18:20:09 |
 piegames | No, Gnome 3.38 is end of life | 20:34:19 |
| piegames | You can look at the extension's upstream if they have an experimental 40 support branch. | 20:35:15 |
| 22 Jul 2021 |
| hmenke | Josh Ponelat: I think not so much changed between 3.38 and 40 for extensions, so often it might be sufficient to just add 40.0 to shell-versions in metadata.json. That is basically how Pop_OS! Shell added GNOME 40 support and that is probably the most complex extension out there: https://github.com/pop-os/shell/commit/0143b0b5eb14291cbd9e0b8328eeec93c4871ba9 | 12:53:22 |

| piegames | I think the most important change was the Gtk3 -> Gtk4 migration? And also the new overview, for all extensions that had their fingers in it | 11:02:51 |

I'll look into that (and yeah, I'm interested in pop shell too 🙂 ) | 11:03:41 |

| maxine (they/them) | How does nix deal with packaging things that have circular dependencies? I am looking at bumping gupnp, but through gssdp it depends on gtk4 now, which ends up eventually depending gupnp again (via gst-plugins-bad). Is the solution providing some sort of "minimal" gtk4 derivation to get things untied? | 23:52:50 |
| 24 Jul 2021 |
 symphorien | That or you could make the gtk unwrapped derivation a distinct attribute set. I suppose that the dependency on gst only comes through wrapGappsHook ? | 02:52:13 |

|  srid changed their display name from srid (on hiatus) to srid. | 01:28:10 |
| maxine (they/them) | symphorien: I don't think so, it looks like 4.x depends on gst_all_1.gst-plugins-bad explicitly | 17:54:57 |
| symphorien | Hum weird | 17:55:42 |
| maxine (they/them) | But also we set -Dmedia-gstreamer=disabled? I'm not quite sure I understand tbh | 17:59:12 |
| maxine (they/them) | Oh, only on darwin | 18:00:15 |
| maxine (they/them) | I guess we need a media-backend-free derivation for the sake of gupnp/gssdp then | 18:01:16 |
