mcphailjjohansen: hmm. I don't really understand dbus. Should I be selcting "systemBus" or "sessionBus" for my QDBusConnection?00:00
jjohansenmcphail: that would depend on who you are trying to communicate with. A system service or a session based service/task00:01
jjohansensession = what goes on in a users login00:02
mcphailjjohansen: I presume systemBus, then00:02

zainAny CDMA phones on the project list?02:23
DonkeyHoteithose still exist?02:24
zainHere in the great heartland we are stuck on yesterday and thats all the choices we have02:25
DonkeyHoteii was not aware of any cdma smartphone made after android 2.302:26
zainVerizon...02:29
nhainesIt's just one of many reasons I stick with T-Mobile.02:30
DonkeyHoteiverizon has been switching away from cdma for years02:30
zainwish I had that choice02:30
nhainesShould be LTE sometime next year, I heard.02:30
nhaineszain: in any case, the only information is that Verizon is on the Ubuntu Mobile Carrier Advisory Board since it started up.02:33
nhainesOtherwise, the bq Aquaris and the Meizu MX4 are both GSM phones, as will probably be all other major phones.02:33
lotuspsychjealot of happy users received their ubuntu phone so it seems :p https://twitter.com/ubuntu04:05
luckybunnyindeed we did04:12
luckybunnywell. I wasn't a happy user until I received it04:12
lotuspsychjelol04:12
lotuspsychjeluckybunny: are you happy with the Bq's performance?04:12
luckybunnyso far, yes04:12
lotuspsychjeluckybunny: fast?04:13
luckybunnyit beats my Sony Xperia M04:13
lotuspsychjethats nice to hear04:13
luckybunnyaround the same price point04:13
lotuspsychjeim still on my nexus7 with touch04:13
luckybunnyso I'm assuming the people reporting bad performance might be more accustomed to higher end hardware04:14
lotuspsychjeyeah, i also agree, they cant compare hardware, nothing to do with ubuntu04:14
luckybunnywhile I've been on the low-mid range since time immemorial04:14
nhainesDonno, I used the bq Aquaris with Ubuntu for a weekend last month and it was pretty smooth.04:14
lotuspsychjefor me the big reason is ubuntu's ease and security04:14
lotuspsychjenhaines: im on devel-proposed now and going crazy smooth :p daily system updates==> very happy here04:16
luckybunnyfor me it's because I finally have a phone that might natively work with my OS of choice04:16
luckybunnymost androids come with their own software package for windows (and sometimes mac) only04:17
luckybunnydespite the device running a linux kernel04:17
lotuspsychjeyeah thats a good view, manufatcurers choose android in our place..04:17
lotuspsychjeubuntu has jumped nicely with ubuntu touch and ubuntu 14.04 LTS04:18
luckybunnymy only gripe with ubuntu touch so far is the lack of certain apps I kinda rely on with android. But that's not a gripe with the OS, more the early stage in its lifetime that it's at now04:18
luckybunnyas time goes on, and more stuff hits the store, those gaps will be filled04:19
lotuspsychjewell me and popey dicussed about it yesterday, touch should stick to ubuntu apps and not mix too many others for security reasons04:19
lotuspsychjelike that telegram app was a nice alternative04:20
lotuspsychjesecure..04:20
lotuspsychjeim sure more nice apps will follow in the future04:20
lotuspsychjewho wants broken android malware packages anyway :p04:22
luckybunnyTelegram has been around for a while04:25
luckybunnyI've had it on android for over a year04:25
lotuspsychjeif they can hijack android on remote, they can read whatever been said on telegram too04:26
lotuspsychjeso far for android security04:26
lotuspsychjeluckybunny: but now your a lucky ubuntu touch owner :p04:27
luckybunnyyeah. I was one of the 250 from the first flash sale04:28

luckybunnythe folks I was with drank the bar dry in the youth hostel04:31
lotuspsychjeduvel is nice but dangerous, i never drink more then 3 :p04:31

mcphailFor those who have made the switch already, what do you miss most from android/ios/bb/whatever?11:39
lotuspsychjek1l: but they already sell many android devices also, so they dont take risks with ubuntu?11:39
k1li mean even webOS failed although it was made from palm/HP which were like giants on the IT/mobile device business.11:39

ogra_then you can run an ubuntu snappy instance at home ... install owncloud with one click ... and just point your phone to it11:46
k1li mean if you think of how long it took the websites to get to know there are mobile devices and to make mobile versions, there might be some interest to fasten that process on the mobile apps front :)11:47
* k1l would like to see some more open source involvement on the open source phone OS then only wanting to have prop. android apps ported11:48
lotuspsychjek1l: would that not mean a security flaw to port android apps?11:49
ogra_not in our design11:49
lotuspsychjeok11:50
ogra_an app can do whatever it wants ... but as soon as it accesses hardware or data of otzher apps (or the system) it has to interact with you11:50
ogra_there is no way around this, so you can surely package malicious apps ... but they can only be malicious inside their own environment ... which doesnt offer you much to be evil11:51
k1llotuspsychje: i mean: at the moment on every new mobile OS the question is: will it work with android apps.11:52
lotuspsychjeogra_: so they cant record data 'caged' on ubuntu?11:52
ogra_they can record all data they can access :)11:53
ogra_but they cant do that without you knowing11:53
lotuspsychjek1l: yeah compatiblity is always a prob in this world, the masses use windows,android,etc11:53

=== MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch

lotuspsychjeok i understand11:55

mcphaillotuspsychje: the apparmor restrictions are pretty solid. I've been trying to break them for days... ;)11:55
lotuspsychjemcphail: i love security pentesters :p11:56
ogra_k1l, sure, but it is a different model than on android, where you simply blindly confirm world access at app install time (most do that i uess)11:56
ogra_*guess11:56
lotuspsychjemcphail: did you try to nmap ubuntu touch device yet?11:57
k1logra_: yes. its a flaw in the security design. you cant install if you dont give the app the access it demands.11:57
k1lso we end up on a flashlight app reading the whole phonebook11:57
ogra_right11:57
ogra_on ubuntu thats impossible11:57
mcphailk1l: I'm not sure that is true. Back when the google app store clearly showed permissions, there were always lots of comments and downvotes for apps with inappropriate permissions. That's why they hid them11:57
lotuspsychjewell thats nice to hear11:57
k1lmcphail: the security interessted user will notice that and will not install the app. but $user, who just wants quickly install a flashlight app, doesnt care about as long as he gets the flashlight going.11:58

davmor2Mirv: developer.ubuntu.com12:32
Mirvdavmor2: I've tried that thing, but eg https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/publish/packaging-click-apps/ talks about newly created SDK apps from within Qt Creator, not how to manually build click packages most easily if the debian packaging is already in place12:32
ogra_Mirv, there is no general solution ... you need to dump your libs into the right place that ubuntu-app-launch adds to LD_LIBRARY_PATH12:33

motabhaiis it worthy to flash from 14.10 to 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) Daily Build ?12:37
ogra_not if you want a stable phone12:37
ogra_(15.04 has plenty of unfixed bugs)12:38
robin-heroIs Vivid has better battery life than Utopic?12:38
ogra_probably ...12:40
* ogra_ hasnt compared the two on the same hardware12:40
robin-heroDo you use 14.10 on your bq phone?12:41
ogra_sure12:41
Mirvogra_: thanks, that looks useful!12:41
ogra_i cant wait to have snap packages come to the phone though12:42
robin-heroAnd do you statisfied with the battery life?12:42
ogra_so much easier to package12:42
ogra_robin-hero, i get ~2 days out of the device with one charge and occasional browsing and music playback ... yeah, i am stisfied12:42
ogra_not sure how long the bq lasts on android, but i doubt it is much more12:43
ogra_the battery is quite small ...12:43
robin-heroogra_: 2 days would be okay for me, but now it is about 28 hours...12:43
robin-heroshould a reflash solve this battery drain problem?12:44
ogra_well, it really depends on your screen time ... if the screen is on a lot it will surely draw a lot ... also if you have automatic brightness on plays a role12:44
sturmflut-workIf all my data and assumptions are correct, the revenue bq made by selling Ubuntu Phones surpassed a million euros today.12:44
ogra_why would a re-flash solve anything ?12:44
ogra_sturmflut-work, you and your guesswork ... :P12:45
ogra_sturmflut-work, but awesome !!!12:45
ogra_:)12:45
popeysturmflut-work: interesting12:45
popeyprobably not much compared to how many android devices and 3d printers they sell12:46
robin-heroogra_: But for me it decreases 3% per hour with turned off screen12:47
ogra_hmm, thats 1% more than i see12:47
mcphailpopey: do they sell a lot of android phones outside Spain? I've never seen any in Scotland. The ubuntu phone has been selling europe-wide, so that might be big news for them12:47
ogra_do you have two SIMs ?12:47
ogra_that might cause more wakeups12:48
popeythey have shipped beyond spain for ages, yes12:48
sturmflut-workpopey: Ubuntu should now make up about one percent of the phones they will sell this year. I have no data regarding 3D printers.12:48
robin-heroogra_: no, only one12:48
mcphailrobin-hero: my android phone drains more or less depending on strength of nearest cell tower/wifi hotspot etc. Perhaps location plays a difference12:49
robin-heromcphail: I disabled location, no change...12:49
ogra_it surely does, but shouldnt be a massive one12:49
ogra_i think he meant pyhsical location towards your cell tower12:50
robin-heroit decreases 3%/hour with almos everything turned off12:50
robin-heroogra_: oh, I've got it12:50
mcphailrobin-hero: my android phone drains in 18h at home, 26h at work or 12h if I'm in the linac bunker12:51
mcphail(roughly)12:52
robin-heromcphail: I understand this, but my Android phone with similar scpecs drains in 2-3 days with the same usage12:52
ogra_robin-hero, similar specs say nothing12:53
robin-heroBtw the System Settings' battery page isn't too informative.12:53
CoZorobin-hero: did you switch off all feature ?12:53
ogra_you would need an identical SoC that uses exactly the same battery management HW12:53
ogra_the only proper comparison to android would be to compare the bq to the same model on android12:53
CoZosure12:54
CoZomaybe you have to do some powercycle (charge full and discharge) to have a good fuel gauging12:54

ogra_yeap, and whatsapp16:01
mcphailWhat is viber, anyway? I'm not up to speed on these things16:01
Edward_Morbiusyes though viber is much more important to most people, as whatsapp lost a lot of ground to viber, at least judging from people I am in contact with, many of them initially used whatsapp but switched completely to viber16:02
Edward_Morbiusnot to mention free calls over viber that are available16:02
pmcgowanviber is a qt5 app, interesting16:03
ogra_well, i know for sure that whatsapp is bigger than viber in germany16:03
Edward_Morbiusthey have a linux client so I am guessing it would not be too difficult for them to port it to ubuntu touch if they wanted to16:03
ogra_if you want the masses i dont think there is a way around whatsapp16:03

EdwardMorbiuscan you guys suggest what is best to learn for writing something for Ubuntu Touch? Qml,HTML5?16:19
ogra_either :)16:20
mcphailEdwardMorbius: more love seems to have gone to QML, from what i can see16:20
EdwardMorbiusas I am quite a noob at programming I am looking for the easier one to learn :)16:20
ogra_well, QML and html5 are not that much different after all16:21
EdwardMorbiusI will check some manuals and decide16:22
sturmflut-workEdwardMorbius: IMO HTML5 is a waste of time. If you want to do something that the existing APIs do not allow, you are completely stuck with HTML5, but you can just go and extend QML with Qt/C++ modules or even flip everything around and write a native Qt/C++ which happens to load a QML file at some point.16:24
rpadovanioSoMoN, cool! I'll take a look both to doc and branch later :-)16:25
EdwardMorbiuswhat I would like to do is simple image viewer and music player, would html5 be enough to do that? or QML is better16:26
ogra_sturmflut-work, usually even a few javascript functions suffice in QML16:26
ogra_QML is surely better integrated if it comes to things like music playback16:26
ogra_not sure if html5 apps can already use the media-hub16:27
ogra_and without it your app stops playing if you background it16:27
EdwardMorbiusogra I see, this player would be simple though, based on folder playing, but I am guessing it would need media-hub too if you say it would stop playing if it is in the background.16:28
ogra_right16:29
tsdgeosoSoMoN: phablet-test-run webbbrowser ?16:29
EdwardMorbiusits qml then as I would like it to play in the background16:29

dobeyhmm, ok17:00
dobeyanyway, time to go lay down for a day or so to hopefully get over this cold :-/17:01
ogra_uh, get well17:01

Se7n8fr8> Se7: we're thikning about it. We played around a bit last year, but need to take a look again.17:40
Se7<n8fr8> the standard tor linux binary compiled for arm should work17:40
Se7<n8fr8> you just need a way to set proxy setitngs17:40
Se7<n8fr8> amoghbl1: sure pull requests are fine17:40
Se7<n8fr8> yes, we'll have to switch to gradle soon i suppose.17:40
Se7<n8fr8> _hc i put a new key for dev.gp.info into the17:40
Se7was a question about tor for ubuphone17:41
ogra_so your next step should be to send some patches to oSoMoN to make the browser support proxies ;)17:42
Se7on #guardianproject17:42
Se7ogra_, _hc> Se7: is there a way to set the network proxy in Ubuntu Phone?17:43
ogra_iÄm not sure if the http_proxy variable would have any effect on the UI ... the general ubuntu mechanisms surely work on the lower layer though17:45
ogra_but i guess for browser and webapps you would need additional implementation work in the webbrowser app17:45
Se7can you come in #guardianproject17:46

DanChapmanogra_: ouch, white text don't sound very good, I tested the upgrade like 20 times before uploading :-/. Does a reinstall solve it?18:58
nik90DanChapman: it crashed the first 3 times after the update but now seems fine. I suspect that when you switch to using the SDK new listitems (when vivid transition is complete on the phone) you should see good performance improvements.19:07

DanChapmannik90: 3 times? thats nasty! we were originally targeting vivid with these new UI changes and performance seemed pretty good on devel-proposed. Have you had a go at implementing that new bottom edge concept gventuri sent your way?19:37
ogra_DanChapman, ah, havent tried a reinstall ... i had the dark theme selected though19:41
ogra_nope, no change19:46
DanChapmanogra_: ahhh i think i know what it is now you mention the dark theme19:54
DanChapmanogra_ could you try changing preferences.theme to Ubuntu.Components.Themes.Ambiance in the ~/.config/dekko.dekkoproject.conf file. And tell me if it fixes it. I forgot that was still being set so it will most likely be screwing with the theme. If that fixes it i'll push an update20:00

asdASDsHi. I have a nexus 3 with ubuntu on. Now the screen is black and the blue light is blinking. Charging or pressing the power button dosnt make any change.21:05
asdASDsDo anyone have any tips on what I could do to make the phone work again? :)21:06
pmcgowanasdASDs, you mean nexus 4?21:06
pmcgowando you have it charing with the original wall charger?21:06
pmcgowancharging21:06
asdASDspmcgowan: Atleast the one phone which was supported best a month ago.21:07
pmcgowanI suspect it completely ran out the battery, and leaving it charging with the wall wart should get it going21:07
asdASDspmcgowan: which light indicates its charging? And what does blue blinking mean?21:09
pmcgowanasdASDs, thats all in the firmware, I have not seen this for some time so trying to remember21:10
nik90DanChapman: I tried downloading the mockup video from the dropbox link, but it seems to have been removed. Can you upload to google drive or some place easily shareable?21:11
dragonkeeperwhat is everyone using as a email client , not gmail, ? and ssh client.  former being most important as i can use ssh to read emails21:12
dragonkeeperthe latter should i say ;)21:12
pmcgowanasdASDs, although low batter should e the red light, you may want to try holding power button to force it to shutdown21:14
nik90dragonkeeper: try "dekko".. its a native email client which just had a new release today21:14
nik90dragonkeeper: its still in beta..and with the new 0.5 release today, the performance seems to be a bit slow but that should hopefully get better with updates21:15
=== k1l_ is now known as k1l
dragonkeepernik90, ill try it , thanks21:15
asdASDspmcgowan: Problem is that I cant cut power.. as the battery is not possible to pull out. And holding down the power button dosnt make it do anything.21:16
DanChapmannik90 let me just check I have it copied somewhere.21:16
nik90DanChapman: I did remember copying it since I was playing it on 0.5x speed in vlc..but cant find it any more21:17
* dragonkeeper wants ingress xD21:17
dragonkeepernik90,  aww dekko imap only21:23
nik90dragonkeeper: yes..feel free to make feature requests at their project page https://launchpad.net/dekko ;-)21:24
dragonkeeperwill do :)21:25
nhainesDanChapman: I tried Dekko about an hour ago.  It took a bit of a long wait before the interface responded after the upgrade, and that was worrisome.  But it looks very pretty now.21:26
nhainesSo I do like the UI updates.  :)21:27
DanChapmannik90: can't find it :-/ popey hey ^^ would you be able to try and track down those animation videos the new edge concept. I have no idea who was the owner of them when they were on dropbox21:28
DanChapmannhaines: yes the performance is rather laggy atm. The next couple of weeks will be working on improving the apps performance before we add any more new UI features.21:31
dragonkeeperprob stupid to ask since its early days. is there maps or navigation as an app ?21:32
nhainesDanChapman: that's good to know.  I didn't play with it enough to see if it was every launch or just the first launch.  Once it loaded it worked very well.21:33
nhainesDefinitely looks beautiful though.  :)21:33
nhainesdragonkeeper: the bq phones have HERE as a map.21:33
dragonkeeperyeah i have that but it doesnt want to find my location .21:35
dragonkeeperits a webapp too21:36
nhainesTest with Google Maps, too.  It should work everywhere or nowhere.21:39
dragonkeeperhmm my location is on with  gps ,wifi and mobile option ticked,  then google maps and HERE ticked to allow access ,  neither can get a location nhaines21:45
pmcgowandragonkeeper, did you accept the here thing at first boot or in settings?21:51
pmcgowanif in settings you will need another reboot for it to kick in21:52
dragonkeeperpmcgowan, unsure what you mean21:54
nhainesdragonkeeper: Yup, so that tells us that it's not a problem with HERE and a problem with the location services framework, which probably just means it's disabled.21:54
pmcgowandragonkeeper, when prompted by the setup wizard did you say ok for Here services21:54
pmcgowandragonkeeper, that provides the agps support21:55
dragonkeeperi dont remember it asking me21:55
pmcgowanotherwise location fix is slow or not at all indoors21:55
nhainesdragonkeeper: it did ask you, though.  It's one of the last two screens.21:55
fummynexus 5 latest devel-proposed, got battary drain close to charging speed, is that normal for this build or some bug on my side?21:56
pmcgowandragonkeeper, go to settings > security > location access and see if HERE is enabled21:56
nhainesSo in that case, you should look in System Settings, as indicated by pmcgowan.21:56
nhainesfummy: it's "normal".21:56
nhainesFor the moment, anyway.21:56
fummyk, ty21:56
dragonkeeperusing gps ....by accepting this option you accept nokia HERE terms.... ticked and here maps location access is ticked21:57
pmcgowanhm in that case you shoud get a pretty quick fix in Here and gmaps21:58
pmcgowanyou do need to request it more than once generally21:58
pmcgowanfirst time enables the location service21:58
pmcgowanthat is in the map app hit the locate button then wait a min and hit again21:58
pmcgowandragonkeeper, oh, have you gotten the latest update yet?22:00
dragonkeeperyeah, 1st thing i did after wizard22:00
pmcgowanok then should work22:00
dragonkeepershould but isnt liking me lol22:01
pmcgowandragonkeeper, are you connected to wifi (sorry for all the dumb questions)22:02
dragonkeepernope just 3g22:02
pmcgowanhmm22:04
pmcgowanthat could be it22:04
dragonkeeperif u need wifi them that renders navigation void22:05
pmcgowandragonkeeper, we have a bug logged that when wifi was never enabled there were problems with location22:07
pmcgowanseems you need to have it first time, which is of course wrong22:07
dragonkeeperhmm now i have a location22:08
* dragonkeeper facepalams 22:08
dragonkeeperpmcgowan, so your saying if im outside i need wifi on to get location ? regardless if wifi is connected ? :s22:09
pmcgowandragonkeeper, no I think this is a first time initialization issue, once it works it will work without wifi22:09
dragonkeeperhmm on , so ill disable wifi and reload HERE22:11
pmcgowandragonkeeper, enable a wifi connection, use Here to get a location fix, then disable wifi22:12
jgdxhey kenvandine, if you're still got phonesim running, would you take a look at https://code.launchpad.net/~jonas-drange/ubuntu-system-settings/no-empty-contexts-1433278/+merge/254318 ?22:13
dragonkeeperi disabled and loaded here , as if im traveling i wont have a wifi connection to locate myself with , seems to work after 5 taps to locate me but position radius is enormous22:13
pmcgowandragonkeeper, while I am not completely sure, I think it will work on 3g only from now on22:14
dragonkeeperi will have to have a play with it while im travelling tomorrow. kinda essential since my job requires i know where i am 24/7 lol22:15
pmcgowanif you see an innacurate location its likely because gps has not kicked in which makes it very precise22:15
pmcgowandragonkeeper, please report back, hope it works for you22:15
jgdxkenvandine, since the other apn branch is blocked by glibc, maybe we bundle them together if we get it through quickly? :)22:15
dragonkeepermaybe if im in a better area ill get better signal pmcgowan22:16
pmcgowandragonkeeper, a gps lock takes 5 to 10 mins22:16

asdASDsOn http://www.bq.com/gb/ubuntu.html it says Its only available in eu. And i'm in Norway. within schengen, outside EU.22:39
dragonkeeperthen i dont know how you would get one, sorry22:40
brunch875tally ho!22:40
asdASDsdragonkeeper: so its possible to buy it from that page within the EU?22:40
dragonkeepernot atm , they was doing flash sales that lasted an hour or two , and there was a buy now button . its not there now22:42
asdASDsAh, ok.22:42

brunch875the veredict?22:43
brunch875do you like it?22:43
dragonkeeperlove it, alot smoother than ports to android ive used.  everything seems to be working alright. and i will take full advantage of the dual sim22:44

brunch875well hold your boots22:44
brunch87515.04 is coming22:44
brunch875with maassive updates22:44

brunch875~ 22 next month?22:45
asdASDs Oh. I want it even more now.22:45
dragonkeeper:)22:45
brunch875I read someone said the date yesterday22:45
brunch875but my memory is really poor22:45
dragonkeeperonly thing ive seen blank so far is notification bar. files tab.. whats that for ? transfers?22:46
brunch875downloads22:46
nhainesIt's supposed to be.22:46
brunch875probably transfers too22:46
dragonkeeperah makes sense22:46
brunch875but I've seen it go green when downloading stuff22:46
brunch875which reminds me, there are some apps you should download22:46
brunch875which in all honesty should come as default22:46
brunch875such as the PDF reader22:46
brunch875man, that really rocked my socks last night22:47
nhainesNegative.  I don't want or need a PDF reader.22:47
brunch875I was doing late homework and I had to tab between the internet browser and a big PDF22:47
dragonkeeperyh this bq phone didnt even arrive with file manager as stock22:47
brunch875I remember how that used to kill my android22:47
brunch875but tabbing here was smooth and instant22:47
brunch875just like a pc with a little screen22:48
nhainesI don't want or need a file manager, either.  That's what the terminal's for.  :)22:48
nhainesWhat I *would* like is a way to filter the Ubuntu App Store for Ubuntu Core Apps.22:48
dragonkeeperid agree if terminal emu came installed as stock22:48
nhainesNegative, most people don't want or need a terminal.22:48
brunch875it's probably a bad idea to ship terminal as default22:49
brunch875that scares people off22:49
nhainesI like the way the bq phone shipped.  Phone apps included, and go and grab the extras you want.22:49
dragonkeeper"its so user friendly ... i dont like that"22:49
dragonkeeperlmao22:50
nhainesBesides, this way there's no fights between OEMs, carriers, and Canonical about terminals.22:50
nhainesIt's simply impossible to keep a user who wants a terminal from downloading one and having full system control, and meanwhile there's no liability on the carriers or vendors.22:50
nhainesEverybody wins.22:50
brunch875:D22:51
dragonkeeper, so do you have to use the store or can i grab a term and apt-get ?22:52
brunch875you *can*22:52
brunch875but there are buts22:52
brunch875for starters, anything which belongs to root is read-only22:52
brunch875you can (with ease) make the phone read-write22:53
brunch875which isn't too much of a good idea22:53
brunch875it disables delta OTA opdates22:53
dragonkeepero.O22:53
brunch875from what I know the only way to revert from this state is to re-flash22:54
jgdxyou can still get those by using udf, though, right?22:54
brunch875ubuntu is transitioning from debian packages to click packages22:54
nhainesbrunch875: you can't.  The terminal isn't available as a debian package, so it has to be via the store.22:54
nhainesAnd Ubuntu is *not* transitioning away from debian packages.22:54
brunch875is it not?22:55
nhainesNo.22:55
nhainesThey can't.  It's how Ubuntu images are built, at minimum.  :)22:55
brunch875I've read some articles about it to ease it a bit with the dependency nightmare22:55
nhainesBut when Unity 8 is available on the desktop, they will *add* click/snappy packages.22:55
brunch875that's what I meant22:56
brunch875of course debian packages will stay around for long22:56
nhainesNot to hear some news sites talk.  :)22:56
brunch875STILL, today I installed binutils using dpkg on the ubuntu phone22:57
brunch875so apt-get DOES work22:57
* dragonkeeper hugs gentoo "we dont need packages" xD22:57
brunch875but it's perhaps a better idea to install your stuff on your home directory instead of /usr/share22:57
brunch875so you don't turn off the readonly method22:58
brunch875that adds to security22:58
brunch875and apt-get upgrade breaks the system from what I've heard22:58
nhainesIt does.22:58
dragonkeeperhmm ok what does the developer option do ? does that effect ota ?22:59
brunch875developer mode is just like in android22:59
nhainesNo.  It allows adb access to the phone.22:59
dragonkeeperah ok22:59
