Monday meeting notes for 22/2/2021

[Marco Martin]

David E
* I'll start then
* As usual after a big release, Bugzilla goes mental
* Plasma shell 83 new bugs this week, system settings 42
* It is super important that everyone helps out on the bug triage
* If everyone here does just a little bit (even just handling 2 a day)
we will be on top of this
* From my side, I've fixed 2 things this weekend that were marked as
VHI regressions. An issue in font installations and an crash in the
kactivities KCM
* I've got quite a bit of feedback on the new systemd bootup
* There's been some minor issues, so I'm glad we did an opt-in launc
[seems krunner activation fails]

Alex
* Fixed the bug that pinned apps could not be launched,
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=433148 it was a simple one liner
:)
* More of a question: Do we put clang-format on hold until 5.21 is
more or less done with bugfixes? There have been two MRs
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/703
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/powerdevil/-/merge_requests/37
[Agreed to set an arbitrary date after 5.21.3]
* Please review bugfix for some edgecases + unitetests in the runners:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/655
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/654
[d_ed will do]
* Also worked on reducing duplicates in KRunner, see
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/641
and https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/krunner/-/merge_requests/56/
Some PBI related parts still need some work
https://phabricator.kde.org/F9727060 :D
* The activities runner will be ported to a DBus runner,
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kactivitymanagerd/-/merge_requests/11 We
also discussed on the phab task that we want to add the
`reloadConfiguration` method to the DBus runners, this will allow the
runner to modify properties at runtime. Will try to make the MR later
the week.

Nico
* But fixed one KScreen bug
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kscreen/-/merge_requests/15

https://invent.kde.org/plasma/ksysguard/-/merge_requests/70
*  I tried to look into https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=433197
but have so far no idea what is happening
**  Some qml bindings complain that the controller is null but, a
changed signal is never emitted and looks correct in gammaray
** But  after closing and opening again bindings seem broken indeed

Arjen
* I did some performance cleanup on the kirigami PlatformTheme thing,
I think at this point most of it should be fine
* other than that, I've restarted work on a new legend layout for system monitor
* over the weekend a bunch of new bugs appeared for system monitor
etc, I'm looking currently looking at them

Johnathan
