[11:34] <hikiko> hey
[11:34] <hikiko> question :)
[11:34] <hikiko> I'm trying to build mir from source
[11:35] <hikiko> and although I have libcapnp and dev installed, I get this error:
[11:35] <hikiko> http://pastebin.com/DedN5xKc
[11:37] <hikiko> ignore, just found the package missing
[11:40] <seb128> hikiko, you might want to apt-get build-dep mir
[11:41] <hikiko> I did so seb128
[11:41] <hikiko> there were some extra dependencies
[11:41] <seb128> cool
[11:41] <hikiko> that was cpnproto for the record
[11:41] <seb128> yeah, if new requirements were added between the archive version and what you builds...
[11:41] <seb128> k
[11:42] <hikiko> I just receive new errors now during make for gmock
[11:45] <hikiko> http://pastebin.com/73LyaAjM this is the output
[11:47] <hikiko> well I disabled the tests for the moment
[11:52] <seb128> hikiko, is that on zesty?
[11:52] <seb128> there are some issues with googletest/cmake-extras there it seems
[11:52] <hikiko> yes
[11:52] <seb128> that was discussed a bit on #ubuntu-devel yesterday, kenvandine and attente hit build issues as well
[11:53] <hikiko> I see
[11:54] <hikiko> well, the problem is gone if I don't build the tests
[11:54] <hikiko> seb128, which one of the mir*
[11:54] <hikiko> in bin/
[11:54] <hikiko> should I run
[11:54] <hikiko> to have the server running?
[11:54] <seb128> no idea, that's a question for the mir people here ;-)
[11:55] <hikiko> question to all: is still mir_demo_server the right executable to have mir up and running?
[11:55] <hikiko> or any of the other mir* will start the server automatically?
[12:00] <greyback> hikiko: only mir_demo_server* will bring up the Mir server, the other binaries are clients for that server
[12:06] <hikiko> greyback, there's an error that I'm missing libmir_demo_server_loadable.so
[12:06] <hikiko> there's no such .so in lib/
[12:06] <hikiko> so I guess I didn't build it
[12:06] <hikiko> correctly
[12:06] <greyback> hikiko: that file is in mir-demos, and should be located: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmir_demo_server_loadable.so
[12:07] <hikiko> missing
[12:07] <hikiko> so I have to install mir system wide too
[12:08] <alan_g> hikiko: you should be able to run in the build tree
[12:08] <hikiko> hi alan_g
[12:08] <alan_g> the so should be in lib
[12:08] <hikiko> alan_g, you mean the lib where I built mir right?
[12:09] <alan_g> Right. But... what do you want a mir server for? The demos in Mir are rather limited
[12:09] <hikiko> alan_g, I want to change the chromium backend to use mir
[12:10] <hikiko> shouldn't I build mir-server?
[12:10] <alan_g> You could just install miral-examples and run miral-server?
[12:11] <hikiko> I don't know :) last time I used mir we didn't have that yet :)
[12:11] <hikiko> is there any documentation for miral-server alan_g ?
[12:11] <hikiko> basically I need these 2 things:
[12:12] <hikiko> 1- find the documentation or the source of the mir api
[12:12] <hikiko> 2- find a way to run mir to test chrome
[12:12] <hikiko> what is the miral-server?
[12:14] <alan_g> 1. Sadly out of date online, but you can build & show the mir docs: "make doc-show"
[12:14] <alan_g> 2. http://voices.canonical.com/alan.griffiths/2016/08/18/miral-mir-is-not-all-about-unity8/
[12:14] <hikiko> thank you alan_g :)
[12:14] <alan_g> (If you install miral-examples you can inore building it and the "bin/" part of commands
[12:15] <hikiko> I only need to start miral-shell?
[12:15] <hikiko> works!!!!!
[12:15] <hikiko> fantastic :D
[12:15] <hikiko> and how do I exit it? kill?
[12:16] <alan_g> Ctrl-Alt-BkSp
[12:16] <alan_g> Or the "x" in the corner
[12:17] <alan_g> (kill works too)
[12:18] <hikiko> no kill is not a good idea
[12:18] <hikiko> I have to reset afterwards :)
[12:18] <hikiko> (I mean reset the term attributes)
[12:19] <hikiko> anyway :) thanks a lot alan_g :)
[12:20] <alan_g> That's odd! You just ran as "$ miral-shell"?
[12:20]  * alan_g wonders why that changed any term attributes
