Snap development using Mir has been using the "stable phone overlay" PPA which is both inconvenient and a legacy of the cancelled Unity8 project.
It would greatly simplify things if Mir were updated in the Xenial archive.
Mir has two categories of dependent project:
1 packages related to Unity8 (and unity-system-compositor)
2 toolkits and other "clients" of Mir
We should remove the first category as it is not helpful to carry these in the LTS.
The second category is dependent only on libmirclient which is ABI stable |

[Impact]
Snap development using Mir has been using the "stable phone overlay" PPA which is both inconvenient and a legacy of the cancelled Unity8 project.
It would greatly simplify things if Mir were updated in the Xenial archive.
[Test Case]
Build a Mir client snap (e.g. lp:~albaguirre/+snap/mir-client-demos) against "Primary Ubuntu Archive" and deploy as described in https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/guides/mir-snaps/
Expected: the client apps start and are visible on screen
Actual: the client don't apps start and are not visible on screen
[Regression Potential]
Mir has two categories of dependent project:
1 packages related to Unity8 (and unity-system-compositor)
2 toolkits and other "clients" of Mir
We should remove the first category to avoid regressions as it is not helpful to carry these in the LTS.
The second category is dependent only on libmirclient which is ABI stable.
The principle type of regression would be FTBFS where APIs have been deprecated.

[Impact]
Snap development using Mir has been using the "stable phone overlay" PPA which is both inconvenient and a legacy of the cancelled Unity8 project.
It would greatly simplify things if Mir were updated in the Xenial archive.
[Test Case]
Build a Mir client snap (e.g. lp:~albaguirre/+snap/mir-client-demos) against "Primary Ubuntu Archive" and deploy as described in https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/guides/mir-snaps/
Expected: the client apps start and are visible on screen
Actual: the client apps don't start and are not visible on screen
[Regression Potential]
Mir has two categories of dependent project:
1 Unity8 and unity-system-compositor "server" packages
2 toolkits and other "clients" of Mir
"Server" packages from the archive will stop working in the LTS as they will continue using the earlier libmirserver.so.38 (from Mir 0.21) which doesn't work with the libmirclient.so.9 from Mir 0.26. This is unimportant as these packages were provided as an "early experience", not for serious use.
"Client" packages are dependent only on libmirclient.so.9 which is ABI stable. The principle type of regression would be FTBFS where APIs have been deprecated in 0.26. The linked 0.26.3 release has these deprecations disabled for 16.04.
The packages are available in silo:
https://bileto.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/2736
notes:
A recursive search or rdependencies identifies the following packages in category 1:
camera-app-autopilot
gallery-app-autopilot
indicator-network-autopilot
indicators-client
qtdeclarative5-qtmir-plugin
qtmir-android
qtmir-desktop
qtmir-tests
ubuntu-desktop-mir
ubuntu-experience-tests
ubuntu-pocket-desktop
ubuntu-push-autopilot
ubuntu-touch
ubuntu-touch-session
unity8
unity8-autopilot
unity8-desktop-session-mir
unity-scope-click-autopilot
unity-system-compositor
unity-system-compositor-autopilot
Anyone wanting these packages should switch to the "unity8-desktop-session" preview package in 17.04 where they are far more functional. |

[Alternatives]
If we want to keep everything working in Xenial, we *could* bump the libmirclient SONAME to libmirclient.so.10. This would result in libmirclient9 being NBS, but continuing to work against the Mir servers available in 16.04 (until and unless they are rebuilt). |

If we want to keep everything working in Xenial, we *could* bump the libmirclient SONAME to libmirclient.so.10. This would result in libmirclient9 being NBS, but continuing to work against the Mir servers available in 16.04[*] (until and unless they are rebuilt).
However, this does not enable the desired result for IoT deployments of toolkits (GTK, Qt etc) and other clients working against servers (specifically miral-kiosk) built against the updated libraries.
To work for IoT these would need to rebuilt from source - at which point they (and their dependencies) would stop working against the servers in category 1.
[*] with the exception of the servers provided in mir-examples, these would only work with clients linking against libmirclient.so.10. |
