Detailed changes

phosh (0.29.0) experimental; urgency=medium
.
  [ Guido Günther ]
  * tests: Create a dummy object for PhoshShell.
  * phosh-wayland: Drop feature flags.
    Wayland defines these just fine for us from the protocol definitions.
    This makes it consistent with other places where we used the
    wayland definitions directly e.g.
    PHOSH_PRIVATE_KEYBOARD_EVENT_ACCELERATOR_RELEASED_EVENT_SINCE_VERSION
    ZPHOC_LAYER_SHELL_EFFECTS_V1_GET_ALPHA_LAYER_SURFACE_SINCE_VERSION
  * notify-feedback: Exit early when we woke up the screen.  Doing it once is
    enough.
  * notify-feedback: Use PhoshNotificationSource.
    No functional change, just make the function take a notification source
    and not assume it's part of an on_items_changed callback.
  * notify-feedback: Move event based feedback emission into a separate function.
    Iterating a notification source to look for feedback to emit will be
    used in more places.
  * notify-feedback: Don't skip feedback if we fail to get the app-id.
    Use phosh's current feedback level in that case.
  * notify-feedback: Blink leds when screen goes blank and there are notifications.
    If there are notifications present and the screen goes blank we should
    explicitly trigger event feedback for these.
  * ambient: Avoid initial theme switch
  * animation: Add enum type for the animation types.
    This allows us to use them as properties.
  * layer-surface: Move alpha handling here.
    To avoid having to pass around even more properties we use
    phosh_shell_get_default () which makes this a bit harder to use in other
    programs like phosh-osk-stub or squeekboard.
    This will allow us to use alpha blending in other parts without much
    code.
  * fader: Make fade-out configurable.
    Add properties to configure fade-out length and type
    Helps: #940
  * ambient: Use a fader to smooth the theme change.
  * timestamp-label: Don't leak datetime
  * phosh-background: Simplify. Just chain up without a parent_class variable
  * tests: Don't leak monitor.
    The tests that run against phoc leaked the created monitor object.
  * tests/stubs: Only create toplevel-manager once.
    This helps test-overview
  * leak-suppress: Drop old leak suppression.
    I fixed that in GTK via b1b9de6836a19cb6336b6a20ad652afc14f1e2b2 in
    2019.
  * leak-suppress: Add new GTK, GDK and gvfs leaks.
  * tests/end-session-dialog: Make both tests more alike.
    Drop superfluous g_object_ref_sink and use gtk_widget_destroy
    to fix resource leaks.
  * tests/notification: Fix leak
  * tests/favourite-model: Fix leak
    g_list_model_get_item returns a ref
  * tests/app-grid-button: Fix leaks
  * tests/stubs: Make shell variable static. Tests use phosh_shell_get_default()
  * ci: Use specific asan image.
    This allows us to have debugging symbols in there so the leak
    suppressions match but without making the base image larger.
  * settings: Simplify brightness slider ui bits.
  * settings: Simplify torch slider ui bits
  * settings: Drop packing from settings box.
  * lockscreen: Use G_SOURCE_REMOVE
  * lockscreen: Queue redraw for clock when deck moves back to carousel.
    Otherwise the clock might show an outdated time after phone calls or
    when swiping back from the plugins page.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/issues/922
  * system-modal-dialog: Allow to fade out.
    This is similar to what we do with splash screens but we use
    an ease out animation to give a rapid response to the user
    interaction.
  * system-prompt: Use phosh_system_modal_dialog_close()
    This will use a fadeout animation if available
  * phosh-end-session-dialog: Use phosh_system_modal_dialog_close()
    This will use a fadeout animation if available
  * polkit-auth-agent: Use phosh_system_modal_dialog_close()
    This will use a fadeout animation if available
  * network-auth-manager: Use phosh_system_modal_dialog_close()
    This will use a fadeout animation if available
  * run-command-manager: Use phosh_system_modal_dialog_close()
    This will use a fadeout animation if available
  * emergency-calls-manager: Use phosh_system_modal_dialog_close()
    This will use a fadeout animation if available
  * gtk-mount-manager: Use phosh_system_modal_dialog_close()
    This will use a fadeout animation if available
  * app-auth-prompt: Use phosh_system_modal_dialog_close()
    This will use a fadeout animation if available
  * tests: Drop unused variables
  * ci: Switch to package test to trixie.
    Bookworm is released and we want to build against latest libraries.
  * tests/gtk-mount-manager: Disable animations.
    Otherwise it might still be running when we end the main loop.
  * Update gvc submodule first time since 2018.
    Avoid passing NULL to gvc_mixer_control_get_vol_* as this raises a
    critical in newer versions. Use PAs definitions directly instead.
  * channel-bar: Simplify and modernize
  * channel-bar: Use symbolic icons via CSS.
    This will allow us to use non symbolic icon names from gvc directly.
  * channel-bar: Load icons with default fallbacks.
    This makes sure we get a valid icon for things like
    `audio-headset-analog-usb`
  * channel-bar: Use a ui file
  * settings: Fix enum type. We're setting the RotationManagerMode here.
  * settings: Separate concerns. Move headphone detection and stream pausing
    into separate functions
  * settings: Get audio output icon from stream.
    This makes us use different icons for e.g. HDMI and USB headsets making
    it easier to figure out which output is being changed.
  * emergency-info-prefs: Fix indent.
    Use 2 space indent consistently, avoid space after `->`
  * emergency-info-prefs: Avoid gint. See CodingStyle
  * emergency-info-prefs: Use (const char * const *) consistently
  * emergency-info-prefs: Avoid saving empty values for string arrays.
    If allergies or medical conditions are empty there's no need to
    save the values.
  * emergency-info-prefs: Build keyfile path only once.
    We use a single keyfile so build it's path only once at object creation
    time.
  * emergency-info-prefs: Don't return early if there's no keyfile.
    We can just create it instead of exiting early which made things appear
    as if "add" wouldn't do anything.
    Thanks to Jonathan for the report (Closes: #955)
  * emergency-info-prefs: Move keyfile saving to a single function
  * emergency-info-prefs: Create directories when missing
  * emergency-info-prefs: Set empty string when value is missing.
    When the value is missing in the keyfile set the empty string to
    avoid warnings when loading the keyfile.
  * emergency-info-prefs: Only make "Add" sensitive with contact.
    We only make the "Add" sensitive when there is a contact
  * emergency-info-prefs: Allow for contacts without a number.
    The user can add them later so instead of silently ignoring this contact
    add it without a number.
  * emergency-info-prefs: Be more verbose when saving fails
  * Update gbmobile submodule.
    Adds cutuout information for the xiami,beryllium
  * shell: Remember the settings object. We'll use it in more places in the
    future
  * shell: Move define past includes according to coding style
  * shell: Don't make debug flags dependent on shell objects.
    This allows us to use it from other parts without
    phosh_shell_get_default().
  * monitor: Allow to fake builtin display.
    Allow the virtual displays to be treated as built-in displays via to
    `PHOSH_DEBUG=fake-builtin`. This can be useful e.g. to debug top-panel
    layouts.
  * monitor: Make preferred mode check simple.  Make it simple to check if the
    current mode of a monitor is the preferred mode.
  * tests/data: Add an overlay matching the nested wayland mode.
  * top-panel: Use height internally.  No need to have it passed in at
    construction time as we don't handle different sizes anyway.
  * Add layout manager.  The layout manager is responsible for providing
    layout information to e.g. avoid notches and rounded corners.
    We currently imply a notch in the upper screen area that mostly affects
    normal orientation hence ignoring it in landscape.
  * top-panel: Use layout manager to place clocks.
    We place the center clock to the left or right when needed and shift
    down the clock in the settings menu.
  * tests: Screenshot with notch
  * calls-manager: Avoid deprecated calls state.
    Those were dropped from calls a while ago. This made it impossible for
    the user to get back to an incoming (but not yet accepted) call on the
    lock screen.
  * packaging: Bump calls dependency.
    We want to use a calls version that matches our enum values.
  * media-player: Connect player right away.
    No need to wait for the idle callback. While at that use
    current naming.
  * media-player: Modernize property definitions
  * lockscreen: Drop gtk_widget_realize() in constructed.  This just confuses
    sizes calculations
  * lockscreen: Modernize UI file a bit
  * lockscreen: Split call settings and page changes.  Follow up commits want
    to set the call but not switch to the call ui page.
  * lockscreen: Remove superfluous titlebar element
  * lockscreen: Move style class toggling to separate function
  * lockscreen: Always toggle notification revealer.
    Instead of toggling visibility on the list and the scrolled window just
    use the revealer. This is less code and makes sure things are consistent
    between no notifications and disabled lockscreen notifications.
  * lockscreen: Use a revealer for the media-player.
    This makes it consistent with the notifications
  * lockscreen: Use small clock when media-player widget is visible too.
    So far we only used the small clock when notifications where visible
    but from the UI point of view there's no difference between those
    so use the same layout.
    This also makes it simpler to add more info elements.
  * lockscreen: Move media player and notifications into one scrolled window.
    This avoids half cut notifiations at the top, etc.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/issues/593
  * lockscreen: Drop max content height.
    Let's have the scrolled window use as much space as possible to fit the
    notifations.
  * media-player: Modernize UI file a bit
  * call: Don't lookup icon for empty string.
  * notifications: Reduce bottom padding of notification tray.  48px wastes
    lots of space.
  * lockscreen: Move deck variable.  It's not part of the call page
  * lockscreen: Use set_visible_child.  This way we don't have to check if
    we're on the right page and can't overshoot.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/issues/890
  * lockscreen: Drop p-large style class for clock.
    We toggle p-small on and off so we don't need another one for
    the default.
  * calls-manager: Expose calls as list model.  This makes it simple to have
    them in list boxes. For now we just proxy everything from an embedded
    GListStore.
  * lockscreen: Add call notifications.
    This makes it simple to go back to an ongoing call and will allow
    us to handle multiple calls easily.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/issues/591
  * gvc-channel-bar: Guard against NULL icon.
    Fallback to speaker if we don't have more information.
  * settings: Don't crash on NULL port.
    Can happen with new gvc when switching VTs
    Fixes: bf9d98a519fc0c4a9e3d0dffc6a4066508577b39
  * settings: Don't forget to mute stream.
    Fixes e826ea4abca36042fbd77abe4e97dcab57b7a789
  * settings: Set channel-bar via UI file
  * settings: Init parent class early in constructed
  * settings: Use '-' for property names.  Just for consistency
  * settings: Bind settings-done via ui file.
    Be consistent with notify::drag-handle-offset
  * channel-bar: Use G_PARAM_STATIC_STRINGS
  * channel-bar: Switch all props to G_PARAM_EXPLICIT_NOTIFY
  * top-panel: Move click gesture to target phase.
    This makes sure the panel is only closed when we click
    outside the widget area, not when e.g. switching sound
    devices.
  * settings: Allow to select audio devices.  This can be useful to switch
    between headsets and speaker without having to open g-c-c.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/issues/951
  * audio-settings: Close details when we launch the g-c-c panel
.
  [ undef ]
  * top-panel: Allow device suspend from power menu.
    Add suspend from the top-panel power menu alongside shutdown and
    logout. This allows far quicker access than waiting for the automatic
    timeout or typing the command.
