Minor point... in original I state

Installed lxqt-archiver in Lubuntu 21.04 Hirsute build 20210227.1 live session and played with it for some time.Set the archiver intergration in pcmanfm-qt to lxqt-archiver.
Created archives in several different formats and tested drag and drop into pcmanfm-qt with no errors/problems.Tested opening archives from within pcmanfm-qt and lxqt-archiver opens without error. Looks good to me - will test further.

@guiverc @Leok @KGIII it would be super helpful if you could test lxqt-archiver for functionality, especially as it relates to the functionality of ark. You'll need to install it. Note that you will also want to check how it integrates with pcmanfm-qt. In the settings you can change the archiver integration to lxqt-archiver. Drag and drop SHOULD be something that it should have that ark doesn't, but confirmation would be helpful.

The updated list has been sent to devel-permissions@ and the developer membership board for the packageset changes.

The DMB will receive the updates list as attached on the document from yesterday. This is the final revision, so the other tasks are being closed and this one assigned to me as In Progress

Closing this because it's not well explained and hasnt' been.

lxqt-archiver was recently merged from Debian. Functionality should be tested and if suitable we should consider a switch.

So a few things:

• It seems now that running picom results in it not using the compton.conf, but effectively using a null config. That's an improvement.
• There are two transparency options in QTerminal: application and terminal. Application (the first one) changes the entire application. Terminal changes just the text area. I was able to get both to work with picom running, so I think maybe that was just a misunderstanding there.

Unexpected behavior with lubuntu/daily-live/20210225/hirsute-desktop-amd64.iso:

@wxl is there a critical bug filed against kpmcore and cala for this on Launchpad?

@teward with Dan's approval here and on the other task (which should be taken as an "all of the above" sort of thing), I think we're set. We've got a critical bug fix for EFI installs in kpmcore (which needs Calamares rebuilt against it; also we're pulling in a new release which just popped out), so if we could get this resolved quickly that would be great. Alternately, if you or someone want to sponsor that, it would be most appreciated (but we're still otherwise good to go on packageset changes).

With the addition of kpmcore as @wxl mentioned in T197 this list LGTM.

kpmcore!

Thanks to a bunch of testing from others, this works everywhere (all the flavors) but sometimes (especially Lubuntu?) it needs to be hit multiple times for it to work. So maybe something else is going on.

Based on comments in T197 and T199, the spreadsheet containing these changes is as follows:

We've got other applications like LibreOffice and VLC that I did not include as those really aren't our babies. I'm comfortable with this list and await further input from others.

• qapt-deb-installer
• plasma-discover
• muon
• openbox
• sddm
• pavucontrol-qt
• qps
• partitionmanager
• k3b
• kcalc
• pinentry-qt
• usb-creator-kde
• lxqt-metapackages

Here's the aforementioned fix to show unknown by default unless there's a clear skip or pass.

Well, trivial, but not THAT trivial. It should be pointed out automirror is using a json parser, so we need an xml one. Looking at the docs and the vulnerabilities in XML, I'm inclined to use defusedxml.

The only other two that aren't core LXQt/Calamares/Lubuntu stuff are zram-config and arc-theme and I don't mind having upload access there.

@wxl the question is if there are any *more* that need removed from the packageset. Once we have the complete list, then we email devel-permissions@lists.u.c and get the official request in.

I'm all for removing the above. I can't see any reason why we *need* upload access to any of them.

I'm gonna pass on the consolidation. Given the modular nature of Calamares and the fact that not everyone is going to use every module AND the fact that automirror is solely ours, I don't think that it's going to be quite easy to implement a one time lookup sort of thing.
