| stgraber | Blueprint-related work: | 15:13 |
| stgraber | - Image based updates (BLUEPRINT: foundations-1305-image-based-updates) | 15:13 |
| stgraber | - system-image.u.c is now running with the production GPG keys! | 15:13 |
| stgraber | - Worked on an initial plan for our DBus API with barry | 15:13 |
| stgraber | - Wrote a new pack-system tool to generate the hardware-dependent tarballs | 15:13 |
| stgraber | - Updated repack-rootfs to create the missing directories and symlinks to make a loop-mounted image work | 15:13 |
| stgraber | - Implemented a basic upgrader script and ran the first image update on my N4: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5838899/ | 15:13 |
| stgraber | Other work: | 15:13 |
| stgraber | - Ubuntu touch | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - Cherry-picked pidns+mntns support to mako and manta, available at github.com/stgraber/linux (maguro and grouper will be much harder as they're on an older kernel) | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - Merged a bunch of changes to lxc-android-config and the initrd to support loop-mounted flipped images | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - Cleaned up a bunch of scripts to stop using /proc/<pid>/root as a way to access the container, instead doing clean bind-mounts from the host to the container | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - LXC | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - Usual code reviews | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - Release | 15:14 |
| ogra_ | cjwatson, well, with moving to apt-less images the turnaround time gets more critical since we need an image build too to get the fix to the users | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - Alpha-1 release engineering work | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - Did a bunch of tests on self-service rebuilds and added to cron, appears to work reliably | 15:14 |

| stgraber | - Other | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - Objectives | 15:14 |
| stgraber | - Quite a bunch of meetings (DMB, weekly release meeting, upgrader DBus API, weekly upgrader meeting, OEM customization) | 15:14 |
| stgraber | 15:14 | |

| ogra_ | (so count me in on that impatient crowd :P ) | 15:15 |
| slangasek | ogra_: but a) publisher should no longer be a source of unreasonable delays, b) the users you're trying to get fixes to quickly are all developers, who are going to want to opt out of image-based updates anyway except for dogfooding purposes... | 15:16 |

| cjwatson | As last week, this isn't meant to be a lecture, but I prepared a few notes for those who're unfamiliar, or who aren't up to speed with what's currently happening | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | "Click packages" (the name predates me, so don't blame me :-) ) are the app packaging framework for the phone, and designed with an eye to later convergence onto the desktop. | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | They're a lightweight system designed to be fast and robust while also reusing a reasonable amount of code from elsewhere, since we have pretty tight delivery targets. | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | They're explicitly *not* designed to replace dpkg and apt; in particular they deliberately have much simpler dependency arrangements. But they should work for the sort of third-party apps that just use facilities of the stock GUI framework. | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | This is a cross-team effort. For example, Foundations is supplying the low-level packaging tools, up to the D-Bus interface; Security is handling confinement; the SDK team is handling QtCreator integration; and various Online Services teams are handling the server side and the Dash integration. | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | Some orientation links: | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-1305-click-package | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | https://launchpad.net/click | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | Right now a preliminary version of click is in saucy. | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | https://click-package.readthedocs.org/ | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | The most important things coming up in July involving Foundations are: | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | * per-user package installation | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | * D-Bus API (will probably be based on PackageKit, possibly with assistance from aptdaemon) | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | * app confinement | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | * desktop file hook so that you can actually run installed apps | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | * get click packages into touch images | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | * demo to Mark at end of month. NO PRESSURE | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | Questions, discussion? | 15:26 |
| barry | cjwatson: can you describe the dbus api a bit more? what is the scope? what does it do and/or provide? | 15:27 |
| cjwatson | This isn't something that distributes madly to lots of foundations people, since we're leaving most existing packages as-is, but there are definitely places where I could use a check on my madness :) | 15:27 |
| cjwatson | barry: I think the best thing to do there is to point to the active mailing list thread on the subject | 15:27 |
| cjwatson | https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-appstore-developers/msg00151.html | 15:27 |
| slangasek | so I understand all the Ubuntu Touch core apps are meant to be made available as click packages soon, rather than .debs (which I guess is the "get packages into touch images" part). how's that coming along? | 15:27 |
| barry | cjwatson: thanks | 15:28 |
| cjwatson | We'll basically end up with a very cut-down version of the PK API, probably - so you can install from files, remove packages, list packages, but not necessarily do complex upgrades or install by package name (depending on how/whether we hook up the download service) | 15:28 |
| cjwatson | I don't really feel a need to invent a new API for it | 15:28 |
| xnox | cjwatson: delta-clicks defined yet? | 15:28 |
| xnox | (as what delta-debs are to debs) | 15:29 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: That's the goal for this month, and I've done some experimentation with it, but it won't make sense to do it until something's hooked up so that you can actually execute the app :) | 15:29 |
| slangasek | heh, ok :) | 15:29 |
| barry | cjwatson: the "download service" is coming out of the click work, and we're trying to make it generic enough to be useful for image updates | 15:29 |
| cjwatson | I've been talking with Ted about the details of that, abstracted above as "desktop file hook" | 15:29 |
| cjwatson | xnox: good question, thanks - I have notes in https://click-package.readthedocs.org/en/latest/todo.html#delta-updates | 15:30 |
| cjwatson | xnox: I have a back-burner project to port debdelta to Python 3 so that we can more readily contemplate using it | 15:30 |
| cjwatson | xnox: I've already verified that it can at least approximately handle click packages, in theory | 15:30 |
| cjwatson | barry: Do you think it might be possible to hook it up to things like the PK DownloadPackages (or whatever it is) API? | 15:31 |
| cjwatson | PK has its own network stacks which talk to NM and the like, so maybe not | 15:32 |
| cjwatson | But I kind of feel it'd be nice to push this sort of thing down as far as possible so that we can reuse more code ... | 15:32 |
| barry | cjwatson: i think that should be a goal. the rough api i've seen needs to be "genericized" a bit more, but currently is somewhat app-specific. we should have a chat with mandel about that. | 15:32 |
| barry | the download service will be responsible for stuff like suspend/resume downloads, wifi-only, interacting with settings, etc. basically all the weird network vagaries a phone would see. | 15:33 |
| barry | e.g. user shuts off her phone in the middle of a download | 15:33 |
| cjwatson | I guess we don't want to turn every single TCP connection into a download notification, so it does want some awareness of what's doing the calling | 15:34 |
| cjwatson | (I assume the download service is doing some kind of notifications?) | 15:34 |
| barry | right. there are a bunch of downloads the upgrader will do (e.g. is an update available) that don't need notification | 15:34 |
| barry | yes. | 15:34 |
| barry | details tbd. i expect we'll see some more concrete stuff by next week and then can refine from there | 15:35 |
| cjwatson | For now, it's not critical; the dash code can deal with downloads and then feed to PK.Transaction.InstallFiles or similar | 15:36 |
| cjwatson | However in some ways it'd be easier if we could use an InstallPackages type interface (package names, not file names) because it would be easier to avoid duplicate downloads for the multi-user case | 15:37 |
| barry | yep. i need to refactor the upgrade client internally so that it can use either the download service or my built-in dumb downloader | 15:37 |
| cjwatson | I've only really just started looking at PKish things so I'm a little hazy on some of this as yet | 15:37 |
| cjwatson | And very happy that Sebastian has offered to help out there | 15:38 |
| cjwatson | This month is going to be fairly brutally focused on getting to an end-to-end demoable state | 15:38 |
| barry | okay, mandel says spec should be transferred to wiki pages rsn | 15:38 |
| cjwatson | i.e. build app in QtCreator, upload to click server, search for it in dash, install on phone, run app | 15:39 |
| cjwatson | I think it's doable; but if I tell anyone I can't help with something, this is probably why ;-) | 15:40 |
| slangasek | :) | 15:40 |
| slangasek | if people wanted to get their hands dirty with this today, what would you suggest? | 15:41 |
| slangasek | playing with the SDK? | 15:41 |
| cjwatson | The SDK doesn't quite allow building click packages yet, but you can put the filesystem tree together and then run "click build" on it | 15:41 |
| cjwatson | And "click install --force-missing-framework" | 15:42 |
| cjwatson | It's still a little boring due to things like missing execution hooks, so the package in the archive at the moment is mostly for the purpose of putting more pieces together | 15:42 |
| slangasek | very cool stuff | 15:43 |
| cjwatson | For this audience, I'd also like people to have a look at the hooks interface from the POV of a world with a read-only system partition | 15:44 |
| slangasek | when will qtcreator integration happen? I notice the blueprint has a work item for talking about it, but not for making it happen ;) | 15:44 |
| cjwatson | Since I wrote it before I'd fully understood what was going on there, it probably needs some rework | 15:44 |
| cjwatson | https://click-package.readthedocs.org/en/latest/hooks.html | 15:44 |
| slangasek | right... the putting-stuff-not-on-the-root-filesystem question | 15:44 |
| cjwatson | I talked to Zoltan about that on 20 June, and he said then that he was going to be attacking the implementation from that Monday | 15:45 |
| slangasek | if there are some touch apps shipped in the image, does that mean there'll be two directories on the search path? | 15:45 |
| cjwatson | However I gather he's now on paternity leave, so it's just possible that there have been some distractions | 15:45 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: right, I was just noticing that :) | 15:45 |
| cjwatson | Loic and Daniel have been trying to chase up what's happening there, I believe | 15:45 |
| * slangasek nods | 15:45 | |
| cjwatson | Right, we are going to end up with multiple click installation directories, I believe, possibly abstracted through a symlink farm | 15:45 |
| cjwatson | Per-user app installation implies each user having symlinks to their own current versions of apps | 15:46 |
| cjwatson | So there are a couple of different ways we could assemble that | 15:46 |
| cjwatson | There's also some question of OEM overrides | 15:46 |
| cjwatson | Watch this space, I'm not totally sure yet :) | 15:46 |
| stgraber | cjwatson: I guess lool will be poking you about this soon but we had a meeting about oem customizations this morning and we'll likely have yet another path for that (/oem/...) that will contain some click packages too (probably in their packed rather than unpacked form, but I'll let lool and you figure the details) | 15:46 |
| slangasek | ok :) | 15:46 |
| lool | (poked already :-) | 15:47 |
| cjwatson | As I said on ubuntu-appstore-developers (thread linked to barry above), I think this needs to be designed in conjunction with the D-Bus API to make sure it all works properly | 15:47 |
| * lool hugs | 15:47 | |
| cjwatson | stgraber: Yeah, that was what I was shorthanding as "OEM overrides" | 15:47 |
| cjwatson | TBH that further guides me towards managing things by way of a per-user symlink farm, but it depends a little on how much wants to be mandatory as opposed to merely default, if you see what I mean | 15:48 |
| cjwatson | Personally I think that if we don't allow users to remove OEM customisations that are there by default, then we are not on the side of the angels | 15:48 |
| cjwatson | But maybe somebody will override me there ;-) | 15:48 |
| slangasek | so I definitely look forward to seeing this in action at the end of the month | 15:51 |
| slangasek | I suspect having apps on my Ubuntu Touch will make quite a difference in its utility ;) | 15:51 |
| cjwatson | Um, yes, quite :) | 15:51 |
| beuno | pft, so demanding. | 15:52 |
| cjwatson | Weaning myself off all the apps I have for Android might take a while | 15:52 |
| slangasek | waiting for the Ubuntu Touch Ingress port | 15:52 |
| slangasek | (that one might be a while in coming) | 15:52 |
| slangasek | :) | 15:52 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: cool, thanks for filling us in on the click work | 15:53 |
| slangasek | any other questions? | 15:53 |

| xnox | cjwatson: there is non-webapp twitter client on touch images, via friends app. one does need to launch authentication via adb shell, but it otherwise works good. | 15:58 |
