@bilelmoussaoui is there anything to have in mind here?

[ptitjano]

@A6GibKm Thank you for working on this. You introduce a lot of changes in your commit. Could you split it into multiple commits please. This way it will be easier to drop the gstreamer patch once it's not necessary anymore:

• 1 commit to add the patch
• 1 commit to introduce the fallback-x11 change
• 1 commit to update to 3.38

[A6GibKm]

Yes of course, I did it this way to ensure having only working commits (this applies to the patch). Will do.

@ptitjano I should had mention you for a review, sorry about that. I separated into 4 commits. There is an issue with tracker when on first run it won't show music in the app.

Edit: The tracker issue might be related to lingering files at ~/.var maybe.

I tried the test build and saw this

I was actually testing the wrong build before (forgot --branch=test arg to flatpak run). On Fedora 33 the test build seems to work as expected for me.

@ssssam I noticed the same thing on first(fresh) run.

[ptitjano]

Thank you @garnacho for the explanation and the fix.

@A6GibKm Why do you add the ffmpeg extension? As far as I understand, we don't need it.

[A6GibKm]

Right, I don't know why but I had the idea that it was used upstream. Removing it.

[A6GibKm]

I don't know when the changes merged in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/tracker/-/merge_requests/322 will be reflected on the user's end. I suppose that that is the proper timing to merge this.

The fix missed Tracker 3.0.1 by a few days, will be in 3.0.2 (I suppose will be released in one or two weeks).

Since this is a fix for the portal service in the host, just affects distros that adopted 3.0 early, and the next app restart should work, I wonder if it's that much critical to have the fix in place.
