rainemak#topic Opensourcing the sailfish-compositor poc (10 mins -- pasik)16:05
*** sailbot changes topic to "Opensourcing the sailfish-compositor poc (10 mins -- pasik) (Meeting topic: Sailfish OS, open source, collaboration -- 20th November 2025)"16:05
rainemak#info <pasik> As discussed in the Nov 6th 2025 Community meeting there exists a16:05
rainemak#info <pasik> poc of a separate sailfish-compositor (done as a hobby project by16:05
rainemak#info <pasik> one of the sailors), which adds more modern wayland features16:05
rainemak#info <pasik> /protocols (eg. xdg-shell support) to sailfishos. It would be really16:05
rainemak#info <pasik> nice if this poc was opensourced to allow community participation in16:05
rainemak#info <pasik> development and testing, as getting the sailfish compositor to16:05
rainemak#info <pasik> support xdg-shell and other modern wayland protocols is really16:05
rainemak#info <pasik> important to get more native apps and frameworks working properly in16:05
rainemak#info <pasik> sailfishos. What are Jolla’s plans about this?16:05
rainemak#info <Jolla> To clarify discussion from 6th Nov, Sailfish-compositor and the16:05
rainemak#info <Jolla> mentioned Weston based compositor for Sailfish are two different16:05
rainemak#info <Jolla> things. Conceptually this kind of hobby projects are projects of the16:05
rainemak#info <Jolla> author. So, it’s not really Jolla’s plans on this matter.16:05
rainemak#info <Jolla>16:05
rainemak#info <Jolla> Having said that, yes it would be nice to have that Weston based16:05
rainemak#info <Jolla> compositor proto / demo available as an open source. However, we16:05
rainemak#info <Jolla> cannot proceed with that too quickly.16:05
rainemakIn any case, prototyping xdg-shell would be nice16:06
rinigusit would be. as a community, we could also use qt6/lipstick in principle and make OSS version. but it is not trivial and would require some effort.16:09
nephrosThere have been some mentioned of other possible compositors beside weston. Is there a particular reason that Weston is preferred?16:09
NicoUsualy wlr or something was quite widely used, right?16:10
rainemaknephros, not really. It actually might be that wl roots could be better16:10
dcaliste#info Damien Caliste, community16:11
rainemakjust that it would be widely enough used16:11
rainemakbut also that we really cannot have x11 dependencies there in the used toolkits16:13
rainemaklet's move on16:14
rainemak#topic sailfish-browser esr102 status (10 mins -- pasik)16:15
*** sailbot changes topic to "sailfish-browser esr102 status (10 mins -- pasik) (Meeting topic: Sailfish OS, open source, collaboration -- 20th November 2025)"16:15
rainemak#info <pasik> What’s the latest status on updating the sailfish-browser to gecko16:15
rainemak#info <pasik> esr102 ? I believe earlier there was issues getting the new16:15
rainemak#info <pasik> webrender code working on sailfishos. Is that still the main16:15
rainemak#info <pasik> remaining issue? Is there something the community could/should help16:15
rainemak#info <pasik> with?16:15
rainemak#info <Jolla> Rendering is still the main issue in esr102 code at the moment.16:15
NicoMore and more pages are breaking at this point in the current browser version sadly... But you are no doubt aware of that :)16:16
rainemakYeah, we're following it quite closely16:17
NicoI guess nobody has anything to add on that topic?16:19
rainemakI guess so16:20
rainemakLet's move on16:20
rainemak#topic Open Pull Requests (PRs) to discussion (5 mins -- asked by Jolla)16:20
*** sailbot changes topic to "Open Pull Requests (PRs) to discussion (5 mins -- asked by Jolla) (Meeting topic: Sailfish OS, open source, collaboration -- 20th November 2025)"16:20
NicoNot a PR, but has anybody tried to build the weather app with the normal sfdk? I ran into some issues around translations with that (and then got sidetracked reading about weather APIs). What does Jolla use to build stuff like that?16:21
rainemakNico, you need to comment two lines out from the spec16:22
NicoYeah, I did figure that out16:22
NicoOh, there actually seems to be a PR for a different weather provider now! https://github.com/sailfishos/sailfish-weather/pull/216:23
Ketofixing those translation dependencies is on my todo list :)16:23
nephros... or create a dummy RPM which Provides: the missing translation package. That cen then be reused in other jolla-projects as well16:23
rainemakThanks Keto16:24
rainemakalright, let's move to the general discussion16:24
rainemak#topic General discussion (10 mins or something)16:24
*** sailbot changes topic to "General discussion (10 mins or something) (Meeting topic: Sailfish OS, open source, collaboration -- 20th November 2025)"16:24
NicoSounds good, wasn't too large a hurdle to cross, but it did make me wonder what workflow Jolla sailors use :)16:24
NicoI guess it is quiet today, must be the darkness and slush getting to people16:26
nephrosHere's another interesting library re: xdg_shell support: https://github.com/winft/wrapland/16:26
rainemaksounds silent indeed16:29
ExTechOpAny good stuff you'd like share from Slush?16:30
NicoOh, slush is an actual event, I thought you were talking about partially molten snow!16:31
rainemakBusy two days here in side event16:31
ExTechOpSlush has grown a lot, I remember when it was just a small thing at Kaapelitehdas, now they have the expo center https://slush.org/16:33
rainemakYeap16:34
rainemakAlright, let's schedule next meeting16:35
