tgBot<KrisJacewicz> who do I talk to regarding support for the click system? not any particular click app, but rather the click framework itself06:08

tgBot<DanChapman> @KrisJacewicz I think it was in xenial canonical ended support of click in favour of snap. So it's not currently maintained. What are you wanting to know anyway? someone here might be able to help07:00
tgBot<Flohack> I wish sometimes we would have the same energy ON TOPIC:07:38

tgBot<vanyasem> Flo I'm sorry that's my fault07:40
tgBot<vanyasem> I take all the responsibility for that07:40
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> @DanChapman, actually you actually know about my problem, we spoke, that the click will not install xmir app properly, because when it creats launcher for your app, it will not copy XMir flags over from your app's .desktop file07:40
tgBot<Flohack> @vanyasem, Did not take a look, what is it all about? =)07:41
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> @DanChapman, do you know if  snap will be able to handle that properly at least?07:41
tgBot<vanyasem> @Flohack, about me creating an off-topic chat ? :P07:41
tgBot<vanyasem> that gets all the attention07:41

tgBot<fekz115> Hello, can I ask questions about porting UT to new device in this chat?10:39
tgBot<Stereofont> @fekz115, A little. Please be patient and don't take up too much space πŸ˜€ For detailed stuff, Halium group is more appropriate but that group is more for people who are already making a lot of progress10:43
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> hey guys, I've been asked many times or the question has been asked in general: SSH. … I've promised some time ago I would cover this, and now I have. … @Flohack I relicensed ssh-pull-id to MIT, so I think it is super permissive now, would you consider including it in UT? The rationale (if you don't rememebr sine lot of discussion happens here) is also explained in the post in the chapter "SSH on Ubuntu Touch" (can jumpt directly form the t10:45
tgBotcontent), subsection called "deploy its public key to the UT device". … the post: kriscode.blogspot.tw/2017/12/ssh-and-ubuntu-touch.html10:45
tgBot<fekz115> I just biginner in ut, and now I download sources. Tell me is there some soft in ut like logcat in android? If no, how to debug it?10:46
tgBot<Lorxu> @KrisJacewicz, "Sorry, the page you were looking for in this blog does not exist."10:46
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> @Lorxu, pls let me know which link, and I'll fix right now10:47
tgBot<Lorxu> @KrisJacewicz, The one in your Telegram message, at the bottom10:47
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> works now10:48
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> I forgot to hit "Publish: button :P10:48
tgBot<Lorxu> Yup, can confirm10:48
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> thank you!10:48
tgBot<Stereofont> @fekz115, I wish you success but porting is quite honestly not a task for a beginner, especially if you have no experience of UT. Forget everything you know about desktop distros, modified Android (Lineage). This is a hundred times more complicated. For now, install and learn about UT, until you are 'advanced'10:51

tgBot<wayneoutthere> @lduboeuf, what would it take to turn this into an app?12:15
tgBot<j2g2rp> @Flohack, i know that this isn't the point of make our push server but... will it solve in the future our problems with notifications?12:15
tgBot<Flohack> Lets see, at least it will be easier to debug, for example if your device is not registering I can take a look on the server to confirm that. We cant do that now12:15
tgBot<j2g2rp> πŸ‘ understood! thanks Florian12:16
tgBot<wayneoutthere> @Flohack, this seems like 'news' ... let me know if anything successfull happens and then submit it to the news desk please :)12:17

tgBot<Flohack> @wayneoutthere, Of course Sire12:17

tgBot<dohbee> @KrisJacewicz, No. It is handled differently, but still a bit messy. And the work to handle snaps under unity8 was never finished. But whether your app uses X11 or Mir depends on which interfaces the snap is connected to13:17
tgBot<dohbee> hmm. would be nice if those "welcoming new users" messages were private messages. seems like something appropriate for a bot too13:19
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> We've tried both, this works best13:20
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> And Telegram rules say you shouldn't PM people without express consent13:21
tgBot<peternerlich> @dohbee, I think the point was also to keep these messages human on purpose13:26

tgBot<David_Gamiz_Jimenez> @Flohack, Yeah!!!14:23
tgBot<aldolinux80> @Flohack, that's nice !!!!!!14:32
tgBot<Flohack> Ok so let me do this public ANNOUNCEMENT: With OTA-3 we will switch push notification, right before end of year. There will be a dead period after OTA-3 is out and Telegram switched services. Until you update your device you wont receive any notifications. Now comes the more important part: DEVEL and RC images will get the switch sooner, and therefore will have a longer dead period. I try to keep it as small as possible, but it will be 3 or 4 days p14:34
tgBot<Gabigol> It require ubuntu on login? Or we can remove it from the account manager?14:37
tgBot<Flohack> @Gabigol, It will still require it, since the push client uses it as a precondition. Its only a server change14:39
tgBot<Seumas> @Flohack sorry I went hush for a couple of days. I also must admit ignorance to how security is handled across different web browsers. I know that in desktop Ubuntu, Firefox has individual security patches, as does it's upgrades etc. But the default Vivid repo just has one version of Firefox and all the other programs/packages I think. So I assumed that security-dependent programs like web browsers would have some level of independent security layers14:41
tgBotmaintained by Canonical and now, Ubports. I guess not. Not too much of a problem though because it's the narcoleptic offspring of an inbred snail and a tortoise with broken legs. So slow as to be unusable, and it seems even more so on Ubports OTAs! Hopefully the move to 16.04 will fix both14:41
tgBot<Seumas> the security and the speed, like The Flash from Justice League :)14:41
tgBot<Seumas> *and none of the packages seem to be maintained, being from a two and a half year old/extinct version of Ubuntu14:42
tgBot<PhoenixLandPirate> @Flohack, Wooooo14:42
tgBot<Crash_Burn> @Seumas, "it's the narcoleptic offspring of an inbred snail and a tortoise with broken legs" Awesome line... I'm going to steal that one! LOL14:46
tgBot<Flohack> @Seumas, Well without going to omuch into details, but bear in mind the UBports is a "Distro-Follower", similar to a flavour of Ubuntu. We dont have time and resources to provide or own packages, specifically crafted with more spirit than upstream Ubuntu. If there is anyone volunteering to be a browser maintainer, be my guest. Besides that, oxide engine plus Chromium base will get updates, but we had broken all BQ devices last time we tried. Its all14:49
tgBotso easy for us. :) - Firefox is not phone-specific, nor is it a core App14:49
tgBot<dohbee> updating oxide is a massive pain to do15:02
tgBot<dohbee> it's basically a full time job in itself15:02
tgBot<dohbee> i think the UN classifies it as torture and a crime against humanity15:04
tgBot<Mattia> Guys, it is possible to install ubports without ubports installer?15:07
tgBot<TronFortyTwo> Time has come for Ubuntu Touch users to being able to launch HTOP in their Terminals!😁😁 … https://open.uappexplorer.com/app/htop.emanuelesorce15:10

tgBot<Flohack> @Mattia, With commandline tool ubuntu-device-flash for example15:11
tgBot<Mattia> In a windows pc15:14
tgBot<KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, i see, well I will wait untill snap lands on my UT then try to figure out what can be hacked around. It would be nice to fix clicks but I dont know where to ask for help.15:16

tgBot<padraic7a> @dohbee, I don't know if it is a realistic alternative but I see that Vivaldi are releasing ARM builds: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/12/vivaldi-browser-arm-raspberry-pi18:59
tgBot<dohbee> Probably not really.19:00
tgBot<dohbee> and Vivaldi is also a fork of Chromium these days anyway, right?19:00
tgBot<dohbee> if ubports is moving to qt 5.9, it'd probably be better to port webbrowser-app over to QtWebEngine instead19:02
tgBot<petya230> @Crash_Burn, What is this right? App name?19:10
tgBot<petya230> Its not htop19:10
tgBot<Flohack> @dohbee, Some people think that QtWebEngine is dead slow ;) - never tried myself19:12
tgBot<dohbee> @Flohack, I don't know. It's new in 5.9 though, and is meant to replace the older qtwebkit afaik19:13
tgBot<Flohack> We should give it a try, yes. Whats the underlying engine there19:13
tgBot<archi_dagac> @dohbee, Fork of old opera, without-chromium opera19:13
tgBot<dohbee> @Flohack, not sure. i don't know much about it myself. just saw it suggested to the yunit person instead of trying to bother with oxide on gcc 7 and qt 5.9 and upgrading it to newer chromium19:14
tgBot<dohbee> @archi_dagac, oh. but it's just a browser, and not open source, afaict?19:16
tgBot<archi_dagac> I dont know how source19:22
tgBot<DanChapman> https://vivaldi.com/source/?lang=en_US and pretty sure it is based on chromium19:23
tgBot<dohbee> it's not something that ubports can distribute, nor something that could be embedded in other apps19:23
tgBot<DanChapman> I don't think it was to begin with though19:23
tgBot<dohbee> oh hmm19:23
tgBot<dohbee> no git?19:23
tgBot<dohbee> so weird19:24
tgBot<DanChapman> Nope only forks that folks have extracted to github etc19:24
tgBot<DanChapman> @dohbee, indeed19:24
tgBot<dohbee> well let's see what's in this massive tarball19:25
tgBot<dohbee> 720 MB is freaking huge for a source tree19:25
tgBot<dohbee> and that's compressed19:25
tgBot<sverzegnassi> @Flohack, Chromium, just like Oxide. I recall Marius was already giving it a try, but got some error with building iirc ^^19:27
tgBot<demokrit atomos> Don't know if this is relevant and don't have time to join this discussion but is maybe qupzilla  (falkon) an option for new browser?19:27
tgBot<dohbee> it's not just about a "browser"19:27
tgBot<demokrit atomos> Ok sorry xD19:28
tgBot<dohbee> ok vivaldi is based on chromium, indeed19:28
tgBot<Flohack> @demokrit atomos, We have not many choices, since most websites will reject unknown user agent strings and also rely on functions. I think unfortunately Chromium is a must19:29
tgBot<dohbee> and a browser being available on ARM, doesn't mean it works on mir, or well with touch19:30
tgBot<Flohack> yep19:31
tgBot<dohbee> 3.7G vivaldi-source19:31
tgBot<dohbee> crikey19:31
tgBot<DanChapman> 😳19:31
tgBot<DanChapman> that's insane19:31
tgBot<dohbee> webbrowser-app doesn't just provide the "browser" in ubuntu. it handles multiple instances and confinement, so each "web app" remains separated; and provides the Ubuntu.Web component for embedding in apps (ie, the online accounts login pages)19:33
tgBot<dohbee> and oxide-qt provides integration between chromium and Qt, and another qml component which the browser bits are built on19:34
tgBot<dohbee> i don't know how well qtwebengine is, but it's gotta be better than maintaining oxide19:35
tgBot<dohbee> apple/google/mozilla/ms have basically made it impossible to build reasonable alternative rendering engines now, though :-/19:36
tgBot<delijati> how big is the current firefox source tree19:49
tgBot<delijati> as is understand it ... qtwebengine is pretty outdated !? as is shipped in the release cycles of qt .. and that can be a long time ago19:50
tgBot<dohbee> well it's all in rust now, iiuc19:50
tgBot<dohbee> so probably not as big as it was in c++, depending on how much "third party" junk they keep in-tree19:51
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Would anybody want to watch the API docs build?19:52
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> No?19:52
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Well here you go: https://travis-ci.org/ubports/api-docs/builds/31203981919:52
tgBot<dohbee> @delijati, Well, every release of anything is going to be outdated, because it's a release and not git/hg/whatever master.19:52
tgBot<sverzegnassi> Qt 5.9 (which is what we'll likely use) is an LTS btw. They keeps backporting security patches for QtWebEngine/Chromium … e.g. http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtwebengine.git/tree/dist/changes-5.9.2/?h=v5.9.219:56
tgBot<delijati> yeah but qt shipped with ubuntu 17.04 is from 13. Dezember 2016 5.7.1 and thats pretty "new"19:56
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> There are 5.9 packages, no worries19:57
tgBot<dohbee> @delijati, 17.04 will be end of life next month anyway20:00
tgBot<dohbee> oh webengine is in 5.6 too; and 5.6 is an "lts" release of qt20:03
tgBot<dohbee> anyway, best suggestion so far is to replace oxide with webengine. but i don't know how easy it will be20:05
tgBot<Flohack> I need some volunteers for a small test plz20:13
tgBot<Ern_st> @Flohack Depends for what20:13
tgBot<Flohack> Can you, after I tell here, wait 5 secs and then mention me with @Flohack ? I need to see how fast notifications are being processed and if it spawns processes or handles the queue. I need roughly 10-20 ppl ;)20:14
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @Flohack spam time20:14
tgBot<Flohack> AFTER I TELL!20:14
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> oh20:14
tgBot<Flohack> I want to create a moment of synchronous actions if possible ^^20:15
tgBot<Flohack> so raise your hands who is ready?20:16
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @Flohack20:16
tgBot<Ern_st> @Flohack20:16
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> That's not many hands.20:16
tgBot<Cesar_Herrera> @Flohack20:16
tgBot<Flohack> hmm ^^20:17
tgBot<Flohack> So ok. after I say now! wait 5 secs and then mention me plz ^^20:17
tgBot<Flohack> NOW!20:18
tgBot<Cesar_Herrera> @Flohack20:18
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @Flohack20:18
tgBot<Ern_st> @Flohack20:18
tgBot<wayneoutthere> @Flohack hey! you!20:18
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> I think you just need a bot to spam you @Flohack20:18
tgBot<Flohack> lol20:18
tgBot<Cesar_Herrera> @Flohack20:19
tgBot<PhoenixLandPirate> Florian20:19
tgBot<Flohack> too late this was more than 5 secs lol20:19
tgBot<PhoenixLandPirate> :(20:19
tgBot<PhoenixLandPirate> I tried20:19
tgBot<Flohack> sure it was useful. In some way ;) at least for a nice screenshot20:19
tgBot<PhoenixLandPirate> :D20:20
tgBot<Konrad_Fichtner> @Flo20:20
tgBot<Cesar_Herrera> @Flohack20:20

tgBot<Ern_st> @Flohack20:21
tgBot<dohbee> so, it looks like porting webbrowser-app to webengine should be doable, but will be a fair bit of work20:21
tgBot<PhoenixLandPirate> @Ern_st, To late20:21
tgBot<Flohack> Its hard to tell how much message we can handle, but I think it will be at least 200/s :) - for the beginning should be enough20:21
tgBot<dohbee> what is with those icons20:21
tgBot<Gleb Lee πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¨> @demokrit atomos, Firefox in Libertine container looks like good alternative to official Web Browser. Firefox already can be launched on UT and it's UI can be well tweaked for phone screen (UI elements size can be increased, etc.)20:23
tgBot<Flohack> @dohbee, asking me?20:23
tgBot<Gleb Lee πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¨> And Firefox do not eat much memory as Chromium do.20:23
tgBot<dohbee> @Flohack, well about the icons in your screenshot, not necessarily if you know the answer20:23
tgBot<Flohack> you mean why they are not showing the supergroup symbol?20:24
tgBot<dohbee> is that what it's supposed to be?20:25
tgBot<dohbee> but more the paper plane icon20:25
tgBot<dohbee> it looks way out of place20:25
tgBot<Flohack> @dohbee, Its telegram symbol, it was always like that ^^20:26
tgBot<Flohack> If you click it, it will open telegram app and the respective conversation20:26
tgBot<dohbee> really? i thought it was supposed to be the app icon20:26
tgBot<Flohack> Not sure where it comes from. Maybe the push helper can register that additionally?20:27
tgBot<DanChapman> @Flohack, It's in the desktop file. an x-canonical-* field or something like that20:28
tgBot<DanChapman> if you remove that field you get the normal app icon back.20:30
tgBot<dohbee> oh, for some reason the "symbolic" svg doesn't at all match the actual app icon20:32
tgBot<YougoChats> @Gleb Lee πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¨, Last time I tried Firefox in libertine I couldn’t enter passwords because the keyboard wouldn’t pop up with password fields.21:02
tgBot<YougoChats> Also would libertine/firefox handle all webapps too?21:03
tgBot<samitormanen> How about this browser? … https://otter-browser.org/21:06
tgBot<sopernam> hi21:19
tgBot<sopernam> (Photo, 1280x693) https://irc.ubports.com/CjjgPfVn/file_2672.jpg21:19
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Yay!21:20
tgBot<sopernam> 🀘21:20
tgBot<dohbee> @YougoChats, nope21:22
tgBot<YougoChats> Then that would be only half a solution?21:23
tgBot<dohbee> besides, webengine in qt 5.9 is already a newer version of chromium engine than oxide is, i think21:23
tgBot<dohbee> @YougoChats, less than half probably, as it doesn't really solve any of the problems with oxide21:24
tgBot<dohbee> @samitormanen, also not really a solution. the problem isn't the browser app21:25
tgBot<sverzegnassi> Also, Oxide is being used as module in many QML apps or web apps, so we would still need to find a web engine, even if there's a different browser21:26
tgBot<samitormanen> @dohbee, Oh, sorry.21:27
tgBot<malditobastardo> Or keep oxide + a new browser?21:27
tgBot<dohbee> why does everyone keep talking about a new browser21:27
tgBot<malditobastardo> because I am not an expert like you? What is the deal then?21:28
tgBot<dohbee> the core issue is maintenance of the oxide layer21:28
tgBot<dohbee> and it can be replaced by qt webengine easily enough, while breaking the fewest number of apps21:29
tgBot<dohbee> and there would be no real reason to keep oxide itself, if the browser was going to be replaced. really, webbrowser-app needs to stay, because it's a core part of what makes ubuntu on a phone mildly useful outside of voice/sms21:30
tgBot<malditobastardo> drop oxide and use qtwebengine instead?21:33
tgBot<malditobastardo> sorry I am a noob, I am just trying to understand a bit21:33
tgBot<malditobastardo> I agree with you21:33
tgBot<dohbee> right, replace oxide inside webbrowser-app with qt webengine seems like the best option21:36
tgBot<dohbee> and don't apologize :)21:36
tgBot<dohbee> asking questions and learning is fine. no need to apologize for it. apologies are for being rude or something. :)21:37
tgBot<malditobastardo> Thank you. I am learning a lot reading here and I appreciate that a lot.21:44
tgBot<milkor73> me also21:45
tgBot<Ern_st> @wayneoutthere Did you tick on your todo nextcloud cal test ?22:06
tgBot<lduboeuf> @malditobastardo, πŸ‘22:40
tgBot<lduboeuf> me too22:40
tgBot<lduboeuf> i think that guys like me miss the big picture of how things work on UT, what are the implications. Finding information is really hard sometimes. So sparse. Would love to see architectures and inter process communication schemas and so on.22:54
tgBot<peternerlich> @lduboeuf, me, too. I think that also falls under the topic of documentation which is a huge point made by marius humself near the end of the MMA (β†’@ubports_news)22:57
tgBot<lduboeuf> πŸ‘23:50
