Detailed changes

phosh (0.38.0) experimental; urgency=medium
.
  [ Guido Günther ]
  * ci: Use consistent image version
  * build: Update base image version in Dockerfile
  * ci: Update images
  * osd-window: Use G_PARAM_STATIC_STRINGS.
    Fixes: 12983abe1 ("Add PhoshOsdWindow")
  * osd-window: Hide level bar when level is < 0.0.
    There's osd messages that don't need a bar (e.g. "Not available")
  * shell-manager: Check if we got a level
  * ui: Move width request to level-bar.
    If we just have an icon we don't want to allocate the
    space for the level bar.
  * osd: Only show box if one of it's elements is present.
    This makes sure the icon centers properly if only an icon is shown.
  * osd-window: Use a larger icon when it's the only OSD element.
    Otherwise it can be hard to spot.
  * monitor: Only use wl_output_done.
    Since xdg-output version 3 this is possible.
    See wayland-protocols 962dd535372c8e4681374c23d2603cbe06cd7031
  * background: Use getters.
    Easier to read and avoids g_object_get() round trip
  * background-manager: Refresh the background on monitor configuration changes.
    Otherwise we keep using the old pixmap which likely doesn't fit the
    current scale or screen orientation.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/issues/1035
  * background: Exit early if layer surface isn't fully configured yet.
    We can't query width or height if configuration isn't done.
  * session: Only append session manager if supported by gnome-session
    gnome-session dropped support for --builtin and --systemd. So don't
    append that argument if it doesn't show up in gnome-session's help
    output.
  * build: Use systemd session manager by default
    gnome-session dropped support for the builtin manager in 46.
  * suspend-manger: No need to print error message twice
    phosh_dbus_service_error_warn handles that for us.
  * launcher-entry-manager: New object to handle launcher-entry protocol.
    Listens for property updates.
  * shell: Spawn launcher-entry-manager.
    Spawn the manager from the shell and add accessors so other
    parts can use it.
  * launcher-box: Introduce launcher-item.
    This will allow us to track an entries state
  * launcher-box: Use launcher-item.
    No new functionality for now
  * launcher-item: Add properties to track progress and count
  * launcher-box: Display progress and count.
    We get the values from the launcher manager.
  * top-panel: Properly name top bar height.
    The height is the one of the bar not the panel (which is the bar plus
    the settings)
  * top-panel: Provide default icon size and min padding
  * layout-manager: Allow to query rounded corner information.
    Based on the panel height and the icon size provide the shift in pixels
    from the screen edge to not occlude an icon.
  * top-panel: Take rounded corners into account.
    Shift icons more to the center if the rounded corners would occlude UI
    elements.
    We currently don't take into account that the area for the clock
    placement gets slightly smaller due to this too.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/issues/1018
  * build: Add custom dependency for libsoup
    libsoup sets `--export-dynamic` unconditionally (See
    https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libsoup/-/merge_requests/394).
    Since the dependencies are added past link_args we can't override it
    with `--no-export-dynamic` so rather work around this by using a custom
    dependency.
.
  [ Jesús Higueras ]
  * build: Add dependency on libsoup. This will be used to decode base64 URIs.
  * util: Add helper to decode data: image URIs
  * media-player: Use phosh_util_data_uri_to_pixbuf helper for cover art decoding
.
