ahoneybunwell that did not go well00:06
ahoneybunhttp://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/ubuntu-16-04-unity-8-desktop-progress-video00:06
ahoneybunfollowing that gave me a black screen00:06
bregmaahoneybun, I would not recommend adding the stable phone overlay PPA to any kind of desktop; it isn't supported and hasn't been tested02:32
ahoneybunbregma it was a fresh install on a testing system so no worries02:32
ahoneybunI'll just format it02:32
bregmais your black screen after logging in to Unity 8 or before?02:33
ahoneybunbefore I never got lightdm02:33
bregmathat would have nothing do do with Unity 8 or the stable phone overlay, then02:33
ahoneybunstartx would bring a wallpaper with a X curser02:33
ahoneybunit was find before02:33
ahoneybun*fine02:33
ahoneybunmm maybe should have upgraded, rebooted then added the ppa02:34
ahoneybunoh wall02:34
ahoneybun*well02:34
bregmajust don't add the PPA, it may contain an incompatible version of the X server or lightdm perhaps02:34
ahoneybunyea I could fix it by removing it02:35
bregmathe way Unity 8 works on the desktop is LightDM comes up on X exactly the same way it does for Unity 7 (or any other variant), but if you choose Unity 8 as your session, it will stop X and start Mir02:35
ahoneybunyea I thought so02:36
bregmaso there should be nothing special and no difference until you select Unity 8 at the LightDM prompy and then log in02:36

arioBarzanIs it possible to install qemu on my ubuntu-touch phone/tablet?10:33
popeyarioBarzan: if you make the device rw, sure.10:36
popeywonder how badly qemu running x86 code would run on an armhf device :)10:36
arioBarzanI'm not sure if qemu requires X server? In that case I was thinking one way perhaps would be to install libertine and xmir, in order to get qemu running10:37
arioBarzananybody knows whether qemu runs on mir itself, or I should use xmir instead?10:38
popeyqemu has a headless mode10:43
popeywhat is the goal? what do you want to run in qemu?10:43
popey(It will run badly)10:43
arioBarzandebian-xfce410:47
popeymore efficient to run in a chroot IMO10:49
arioBarzanDoes ssh X forwarding works on ubuntu-touch?11:00
arioBarzanto be more specific, could a client on ubuntu-touch do ssh -X to a server like a headless-qemu?11:02
popeywe don't have x so that wont work arioBarzan11:16
arioBarzanpopey: even within a libertine-container ?11:22
lotuspsychjearioBarzan: whats your endgoal with all this exactly?11:23
popeyarioBarzan: no, i mean on the phone default image (ouside any containers)11:25
arioBarzanlotuspsychje: I needed to know if one could run qt-creator on ubuntu-touch device itself.11:28
arioBarzanlotuspsychje: I thought since ut is currently restricts users to click packages (which are mir-compatible), one solution would be to run another instance of ubuntu in a headless-qemu on the touch device.11:28
ahoneybunyay camera rotation is fixed11:30
arioBarzanit would have been nice though, if one could run ubuntu SDK on ubuntu-touch.11:30
popeypretty sure the sdk guys have demo'ed running the sdk on the tablet11:32
popeyzbenjamin: ^ ?11:32
ahoneybunI saw a picture of that somewhere podbay11:33

mterrytedg, I'm testing your polkit fix to see if it makes that bug in the wizard go away12:58
mterrythanks for the quick fix!12:58
pmcgowanmterry, tedg we are discussing reverting the addition of that package since it doesn't seem it was intended for the phone images ?12:59
pmcgowanand there are other issues12:59
pmcgowanalecu, ^12:59
mterrypmcgowan, if there wasn't an urgent reason to add it in the first place, holding it off until we fix regressions makes sense13:00
pmcgowanmterry, no one is quite sure why it landed13:00
tedgmterry: Thanks!13:19
tedgpmcgowan: The reason was because we figured it was going to be needed for multi-user eventually and it was kinda a no-op. But it's turning into something other than a no-op.13:20
pmcgowantedg, fair enough, so lets defer it so we can shake it out13:20
tedgpmcgowan: +113:21
pmcgowantedg, can you make a silo to revert it?13:21
tedgProbably too late for this OTA, but we should land something that produces a recoverable error on PK request. It's really weird that we have some many.13:22
tedgso many13:22
tedgpmcgowan: Actually, I can't, sil2100 controls the seeds.13:22
sil2100What's up?13:22
tedgsil2100: We'd like to unseed policykit-unity813:22
tedgsil2100: It's causing a bunch of unexpected issues and isn't needed for this OTA13:23
sil2100hm, ok, for this OTA still?13:23
sil2100Ouch13:23
sil2100On it then13:23
tedgsil2100: Thank you!13:23
tedgSaviq: Can you translate the prompt text in those screenshots?13:23
mterrytedg, hrm the fix didn't fix the wizard issue13:24
tedgmterry: Bummer, so perhaps fallback doesn't work as expected.13:25
tedgmterry: Is there an error in the USS log?13:25
mterrytedg, yeah maybe it's not so dynamic as we hoped13:25
mterrytedg, no just the same error in unity8.log during the wizard bit13:26
tedgOh, wait, they're from mzanetti. Sorry Saviq13:26
tedgmzanetti: Can you translate the text in the screenshots on bug 1580086 please?13:26
ubot5bug 1580086 in Canonical System Image "Random password prompt popping up" [Critical,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/158008613:27
tedgmterry: That's not helpful :-/13:27
mterrytedg, yeah just needs more investigation13:27
mterrytedg, but probs not worth it right this second if we are dropping the package for now13:28
tedgmterry: Now that we're not targetting this OTA, do you want to go the seeding the PW route?13:28
mterrytedg, sorry what?13:28
tedgmterry: Where USS would send it to the agent.13:28
mterrytedg, oh via an api to the agent?13:28
mterrytedg, right that would let us drop the custom agent so I'm on board13:29
Saviqmzanetti, they're asking about "changing your private data"13:29
Saviqtedg, rather ↑13:30
mterrytedg, so I guess the idea is that there's some API that we can say to the agent "if this provided password is correct, cache admin auth for this user for the usual timeout" -- right?  Is there a good way to pass password info over dbus or do we need another transport?13:30

seb128mterry added a bunch of those13:31
seb128like ringtones, maybe sound settings13:31
Saviqtedg, in any case, do we need policykit-unity8 on the phone today?13:31
mterrySaviq, no the short term plan is dropping it13:32
tedgI bet it was listening to music, and the current track. That's explain the "every 5 minutes"13:32
Saviqmterry, ack13:32
tedgseb128: So can we put that in vivid?13:34
seb128tedg, you do whatever you want with vivid13:34
tedgGuessing the phone hacked login isn't setting it as the active session for some reason.13:34
seb128from my perspective that's an unsupported non existant serie :p13:34
tedgseb128: ;-)13:35
tedgseb128: If you believed that vivid still exists, would you think it was wise to put it in vivid? ;-)13:35
seb128tedg, yes, we landed those changes in xenial13:35
seb128what is good enough for a LTS should be fine for weirdos as well ;-)13:36
tedgmterry: Thinking about this, we're just talking about password mode, right? That's just the UI being shown. Not sure we need to make that a PK verification.13:41
tedgmterry: Especially if we're allowing changing the other AS data.13:41
mterrytedg, well it's covered under the rubric of the "change own user data" pk auth13:42
mterrytedg, I think it's reasonable to require pk auth, but I could be convinced it's overblown13:42
tedgmterry: So with bug 1512002 it changes that for change own user data.13:43
ubot5bug 1512002 in accountsservice "Annoying dialog "Authentication is required to change your own user data"" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/151200213:43
tedgIt's seeming like if we landed that patch we'd fix all the issues :-)13:44
mterrytedg, I'm a little confused by that bug -- did they just change all perms for change-own-user-data to "yes"?13:46
tedgmterry: As long as you're authenticated as that user, yes.13:47
tedgmterry: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/257080357/accountsservice_0.6.40-2ubuntu10_0.6.40-2ubuntu11.diff.gz13:48
mterrytedg, interesting yup...  yeah that might fix it.  Let me test that patch13:48
seb128mterry, yes, we did13:53
mterryseb128, yeah figured it out eventually.  :)  just the two patches in the bug confused me13:53
seb128mterry, I discussed that with robert_ancell in Prague and that seemed to make sense, no reason to require an active session, that acl doesn't control sensitive datas13:53
seb128mterry, right, I did a first upload that allowed unactive sessions and then we went to allow non registered sessions as well (e.g vnc, ssh, etc)13:54
=== cc_ is now known as cc
mterrytedg, seb128: confirmed that backporting the AS allow_any patch fixes the issue with wizard and polkit-u8.  And presumably means we can drop the custom agent in USS completely14:29
tedgmterry: \o/14:30
seb128mterry, tedg, what is the agent for in uss?14:30
seb128mterry, tedg, the change-own-data doesn't cover passwords14:30
tedgseb128: Handling specifically that issue :-)14:30
seb128just user icon, etc14:30
tedgIn this case it was password display as keypad or keyboard14:30
mterryseb128, yeah.  The custom agent specifically was for changing user password mode (not password itself) before we had an agent14:31
seb128that's the hint?14:31
mterryseb128, yeah.  display hint14:31
seb128hint is under the same permission indeed14:31

sil2100https://code.launchpad.net/~dobey/pay-service/use-langpacks/+merge/291422 <- this was the merge14:57

mterrySaviq, seb128: sorry was out for lunch.  We *should* have a proper logind session.  Last time I looked at it, we did.  What we don't have is a cached user authentication, since lightdm autologs the user in.  Which might be part of the polkit problem.  Or maybe we lost the status of "proper logind session" along the way and we didn't notice.  But I think other things would be broken if that were true17:24
