[01:54] <zc456> Snapcraft doesn't seem to recognize a jar built when using ant. I tested the built jar and it does work. http://i.imgur.com/1T5YUku.png

[04:58] <teej> Hello.
[05:04] <teej> I see that snap can be used for all sorts of packages. Does this mean snap has the ability to eventually replace apt/apt-get/aptitude?
[06:47] <niemeyer> teej: Hey
[06:48] <niemeyer> teej: This is not a short or medium term goal, at least
[07:15] <tsimonq2> teej: snaps are NOT meant to replace apt (the project name :P) or any other packaging system
[08:23] <szszsz> hi! I wanted to establish one thing: should snappy be used with sudo or not?
[08:23] <szszsz> Some guides uses sudo, official on snapcraft says snap login
[08:27] <tsimonq2> szszsz: snapcraft no, snappy (which has been replaced with the snap command) most of the time yes
[08:33] <szszsz> tsimonq2: I meant snap command, which is described on snapcraft main page. I have an impressions there is a difference since commands are not in user path after installing with sudo
[08:34] <szszsz> or am I wrong?
[08:41] <szszsz> ok, I am withdrawing this. With sudo I have access to installed command within the path
[08:42] <szszsz> One more question: is there a possibility that snap could install shortcuts to unity launcher?
[08:43] <tsimonq2> can you clarify?
[08:43] <tsimonq2> like, you have the ability to launch it from Unity?
[08:43] <szszsz> I would like to have it
[08:44] <szszsz> I have a QT application so running it from terminal does not seem right
[08:44] <tsimonq2> yeah I think that should already be a thing, I'm not 100% sure, I don't use Unity ;)
[08:44] <tsimonq2> Alt + F2 ? :)
[08:45] <szszsz> agreed, that works :]
[08:45] <szszsz> but it would be better to have nice shortcut with beatiful icon
[08:46] <szszsz> I have seen a plug named unity, I will check there
[08:52] <szszsz> Well, I will have to request a new plug for desktop and unity shortcuts if I this right
[08:52] <juanrubio_at_tiz> quit
[08:52] <szszsz> https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/guides/interfaces/
[08:54] <tsimonq2> szszsz: we have a unity7 pluh
[08:54] <tsimonq2> *plug
[08:56] <szszsz> that's right, but I do not know how could I write to shortcuts directory, namely /usr/share/applications/ or ~/.local/share/applications/
[08:56] <szszsz> As for the latter, I could probably use home plug
[08:57] <szszsz> I will check it then and return someday in case it would not work
[08:57] <szszsz> tsimonq2: thanks!
[08:59] <szszsz> details taken from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UnityLaunchersAndDesktopFiles
[09:07] <popey> szszsz: yes, we already support .desktop files
[09:07] <popey> szszsz: just put the icon and desktop file in ~/setup/gui
[09:07] <popey> sorry, in ./setup/gui - under where the snapcraft yaml is located
[09:08] <popey> szszsz: e.g. https://github.com/ubuntu/snappy-playpen/tree/master/shotwell
[09:57] <juanrubio_at_tiz> Hi, I'm trying to create a snap package for my project (https://github.com/tizonia/tizonia-openmax-il), and I'm finding an error when a dependency's setup.py is being run. This dependency (pycryptodome) is expecting a 'build' folder, which does not get created when everything under snapcraft...
[09:58] <juanrubio_at_tiz> I believe this could be seen as a bug in pycryptodome, and I've raised and issue there (https://github.com/Legrandin/pycryptodome/issues/22)...I'm wondering if there is way to workaround this in my snapcraft.yaml
[10:34] <iliv> anybody's online? :)
[11:35] <popey> juanrubio_at_tiz: iliv it's often quiet around here at weekends, sorry
[12:05] <juanrubio_at_tiz> popey: no worries. I've raised a ticket in launchpad https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapcraft/+bug/1598396
[12:05] <mup> Bug #1598396: python2 plugin: no 'build' directory found by setup.py under distribution root <Snapcraft:New> <https://launchpad.net/bugs/1598396>
[15:36] <bull> hey snappers :)
[15:39] <bull> any luck making snap for this app ?? https://github.com/keshavbhatt/Deskie
[16:06] <iliv> hey guys
[16:07] <iliv> I would appreciate it if somebody could look into these questions and answered them on AskUbuntu (so that other people could benefit from seeing your answers):

[16:08] <iliv> 3 questions
[16:22] <KNRO> Hello, I am trying to make a snap package for my app, but couldn't figure out how to use breeze icon theme
[16:22] <KNRO> I modified qt5-launch to have export Qt_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=kde
[18:05] <MichaelTunnell> Does anyone have a link to the documentation explaining "all-snap" I found the doc for the Transactional A/B which discusses all-snap here https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/blob/master/docs/system-updates.md
[18:05] <MichaelTunnell> I previously found a github issue on the topic explaining it but that issue has since been deleted so the details are gone
[18:06] <MichaelTunnell> mostly my question is: does all-snap keep the transactional updates in some way to facilitate the snap rollbacks?
