 Dear all, … We are delighted to provide you with another exciting weekly update! … Considerable progress has been made over the past week. … The development team has grown with some impressive work from Erfan and Luka, who we thank very much. … The Anbox container is currently partially operational on the Vollaphone and the FX Pro 1.
[06:02] <ubptgbot> … It is a LineageOS session that starts as a virtual machine on top of the Ubuntu Touch session. … It also allows access now to the camera and some games (SuperTuxKart for example). Here is a short demonstration video:  … https://twitter.com/Khode_Erfan/status/1388881976330006530?s=20 … This progress could never have happened without your support.
[06:02] <ubptgbot> We thank you very much for your valuable participation. … The next steps include many challenges, such as activating the sensors, porting to the other Halium 9 devices, making it work stable and efficiently, as well as creating an installation script. This will probably be the most time-consuming and delicate phase. Indeed, Anbox is not yet usable
[06:02] <ubptgbot> in its current state. … But we are more than confident in the success of this project, and the next few months are looking good! … See you soon for more news!
 Some progress on Anbox for UT :)
 Awesome! … so it'll be a full android session? … I wonder how's the memory consumption … devices mentioned have at least 4GB of RAM 😄
 I was not expecting something like camera to work. Being able to use Android camera apps, and hopefully the additional features they have available relative to UT's basic options, would be awesome. I wonder if this would open the door towards an option for videp chat on UT as well.  I can imagine memory and battery usage with this woul

 that's what I thought too when I saw the camera … possibility of video calls, at least until it works natively on UT

 @TotalSonic [Dear all, … We are delighted to provide you with another exciting weekly update! …], This is a wonderful news … But is starting a full LOS session a good idea?  … Shouldn't anbox only run/integrate Android Apps in UT instead of a full Android Experience?

 Clear, thank you!
 @Alexi [Hi everybody, is Xiaomi mi a2 lite supported as the xiaomi mi a2? Thanks!], there's no maintainer for this device
 gsi was working on that device but no one wanted to finish port

 @mateosalta [might be better than flooding apps into the drawer], What about a Section at the top of the drawer to switch between a box and native apps? There could be a libertine section as well then...
 i dunno i kinda like having them all in one spot like that
 to install lubuntu software center as suggested in the docs is the name lubuntu-software-center? so I just run libertine-container-manager install-package -p lubuntu-software-center?
 @Fuseteam [i dunno i kinda like having them all in one spot like that], Ofc that could be configurable. But having a dedicated section in the drawer is way better than carrying a full LOS session to split the apps 😅
 i mean i think i do agree having them integrated in the drawer is better than having to open an app to open an app xD
 @mymike00 [What about a Section at the top of the drawer to switch between a box and native …], sounds good

 Hi, I'm getting a /usr/sbin/chroot: failed to run command '/usr/bin/apt-get': no such file or directory
 when trying to install-package -p with libertine container
 oh dear
 on which channel are you?
 erm channel?
 I'm on OTA-16 if that is what you are asking, on my op3 last update 2/5/21
 uh that sounds like the develeopment channel hmm
 you can check which channel you are on in the update settings
 I don't think I'm on the developer channel, the update date may be not relevant? I installed ut a few days ago
 what does the about page say about the os version?
 @Fuseteam [you can check which channel you are on in the update settings], where is that? what will I see?
 it says Ubuntu 16.04 (OTA-16)
 yeah that's the stable channel alright uh lemme fetch some thing you can try
 I installed ut a few days ago, tried to get some other dev channel (don't remember which) because I was always getting stuck with the ubports-installer and then installed the stable one. Don't think anything from any dev stayed on my phone since it re-did the installation
 [Edit] yeah that's the stable channel, alright uh lemme fetch some thing you can try
 yeah it didn't stay on your phone i was just confused by the date
 yeah yeah the date must be the installation
 the update settings are in updates under settings. there's a gear in the top right
 ah alright, yes it says stable
 try this maybe `libertine-container-manager exec -i CONTAINER-IDENTIFIER -c "apt-get --help"`
 the container-identifier is my container's name right?
 right
 ok did that, /usr/sbin/chrot: failed to run command 'apt-get': No such fiel or directory
 does that mean apt-get is not installed at all?
 I'll try creating a new container via command line and try with that
 hm makedev problem during configuring seems like
 oh you can get shell access by running bash like that, might make it easier to debug
 i'm getting a mkdev failed and mknod permission denied when trying to create the container
 supposedly it has been fixed? https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1305
[13:55] <gitbot> ubports issue 1305 in ubuntu-touch "Impossible to create a libertine container" [Bug, Device: Oneplus3, Team: Middleware, Closed]
 This is a problem with OTA-16 on the OnePlus 3 and 3T. You could upgrade to the RC channel or wait for OTA-17 hopefully releasing next week...
 @UniversalSuperBox [This is a problem with OTA-16 on the OnePlus 3 and 3T. You could upgrade to the …], ah well, thanks! I suppose you'd recommend waiting for OTA-17, and I suppose I can wait :) thanks for all the help everyone!
 Nah, you don't need to wait. It's your phone :)
 @UniversalSuperBox [Nah, you don't need to wait. It's your phone :)], hmm...I'm afraid to tinker further and have things break since I don't know if the RC is as stable as this OTA, and I wanted to get libertine to install anki to study...so maybe I should just study and not waste my time further
 Alright. But the image currently in RC should become the OTA next week, so you'd basically be getting it early
 (so on the flip side, if anything is broken in the RC and you don't see it, it'll hit your phone next week, so it's in your best interest to test)
 hmm..alright then! I thought the RC may go further iterations until the last candidate
 [Edit] hmm..alright then! I thought the RC may go through further iterations until the last candidate
 and after OTA-17 release I can switch to stable again?
 Correct
 or I won't need to do anything
 aah ok

If you do that from adb / ssh it should work , or maybe creating it from the settings sections

 Can I solve this somehow? Or is it not possible?
 @christos [Can I solve this somehow? Or is it not possible?], General linux suggestion may be trying to use aptitude instead of apt for smarter dependency handling, but it may be a problem with the qt4 packages in the repos
 Is install-package using apt? How to use aptitude?
 Just tried installing Kubuntu sw center and had an issue again, this time it as a:  … isc-dhcp-client … Error
 [Edit] Just tried installing lubuntu sw center and had an issue again, this time it as a:  … isc-dhcp-client … Error

 @christos [Is install-package using apt? How to use aptitude?], Oh you're using install-packge. I don't know then... But yes Libertine is unstable and often fails and breaks
 Maybe someone knows some trick to fix that
 @christos [Just tried installing lubuntu sw center and had an issue again, this time it as …], I have never been able to have Ubuntu Software Center work in Libertine. At one point I was able to install lubuntu-software-center and be able to browse what packages are available in the default repositories, but you can not install via it,
[16:05] <ubptgbot>  but last time I installed it, it was not working properly even for that. There are a number of apps which work ok in Libertine though - let me know if you want my list if what I've tested as ok.

 @christos [anki : Depends: python-qt4 (>= 4.7) but it is not going to be installed], hmmm this may be due to the base distro being ubuntu 16.04
 or maybe something like `apt install -f` could do something
 need more context

 @TotalSonic [abiword, aisleriot, evince, firefox-esr 78.7, geary, gedit, gimp, gftp, gthumb, …], Do you know if python3 and mysql run fine?
 @Sparky3K [Do you know if python3 and mysql run fine?], I have not tested these.
 @Javacookies [is it possible to enable touch gestures on firefox?], You can enable touch scrolling by installing the `Scroll Anywhere` extension and then choosing Left-Click Grab and Drag in its options. Pinch to zoom does not work in it, but you can add zoom buttons to its gui in Customizations.
 okay thanks

 @Jan_ops79 is it camera app or something else?
 Is this something I can fix somehow? Or is this more something in the app itself?
 it may be something with port, but I'm not the maintainer for that device
 it seems that camera app is denied shm access, so it's either UNIX permission or AppArmor issue
 could you check ls -la /dev/socket/micshm
 @Jan_ops79 [Is this something I can fix somehow? Or is this more something in the app itself …], It's likely a device specific bug, related to Halium 9 interfacing with the device's camera firmware.
 @Jan_ops79 [Is this something I can fix somehow? Or is this more something in the app itself …], perhaps get in touch with the port maintainer towards trying to make a fix - https://forums.ubports.com/user/shouko
