Public bug reported: [Impact]
The newer version of Telegram Desktop, 2.9.2, has support new features that are worth to bring in Ubuntu (video calls, voice chats, several pinned messages, multiple accounts, comments in channels, auto-deleting messages, simple image editor). Given the nature of the project, it make sense to do regular updates in order to adjust changes of Telegram service and its server protocol. [Test Plan] Most testing burden rests with the upstream team. I can do smoke tests of the new features. [Regression Potential] Leaf package. Most potential issues are occasional crashes of the application. The new version also offers OpenGL acceleration, but I am going to disable it by default to reduce hardware related problems. [Other Info] The libtgowt source package need to be backported before. It caries a static library for support Telegram calls. Changes in the library do not apply immediately and require recompiling of the telegram-desktop package to be in effect. ** Affects: telegram-desktop (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Nicholas Guriev (mymedia) Status: New ** Changed in: telegram-desktop (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Nicholas Guriev (mymedia) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1942699 Title: SRU: Update Telegram Desktop to 2.9.2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/telegram-desktop/+bug/1942699/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
