Bug Description
/After flashing my phone and updating again, the problem is no longer /
There is no separate bug tracker for XMir so I figured that it belongs under Mir.
I installed my own Gtk native Linux arm app (a game) on my ubuntu phone and I was happily using it with the following launcher (~/.local/
[Desktop Entry]
Name=lazSnake
Comment=Simple snake game written in Lazarus by Kris Jacewicz
X-Ubuntu-Touch=true
X-Ubuntu-
Exec=/home/
Icon=/home/
Path=/home/
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Obviously the app folder is under ~/.local/
Just today I updated the Ubuntu Touch on my Meizu MX4 phone.
Before update the build description was: Ubuntu 15.04-armhf (20160913-020303)
After update: Ubuntu 15.04-armhf (20161201-020304)
The very same game no longer works. Clicking on its icon in the Apps scope starts it but it immediately closes.
Whatever is the reason, I was already in the past updating my OS couple of times and always was able to use the app without any problems at all. Now, after updating, I can no longer do this. Whatever the reason is, apparently the new Ubuntu image broke some backward compatibility.
Also, I chose libertine as package only because otherwise I would not be able to even post this, but my problem is totally unrealted to Libertine.
Some error messages I was seeing are:
[xkb] Can't rename /run/user/
[xkb] Can't rename /run/user/
XKB: Failed to compile keymap
Keyboard initialization failed. This could be a missing or incorrect setup of xkeyboard-config.
(EE)
Fatal server error:
(EE) Failed to activate core devices.(EE)
XMir has closed unexpectedly
Very strange, I flashed my phone back to one of very old system versions, and then updated again. Now everything again seems to work, so I think this bug report is not valid any more.
