janikontio: app is a port of meegopas so im not 100% familiar with codebase but git grep -i xmlmodel atleast does not yield any hits ..10:32
*** Kabouik has quit IRC10:32
kontiooh the name is QtQuick.XmlListModel10:32
kontiothere is a list in between :-) sorry10:33
janiyeah, i just found it.10:33
janiyes, QtQuick.XmlListModel is used ..10:33
kontiojani: then it could be the same as https://lists.sailfishos.org/pipermail/devel/2014-January/002892.html10:33
*** Kabouik has joined #sailfishos10:34
cos-i'm struggling with my app causing too many wakeups to be accepted in harbour.10:35
janikontio: might very well be about dependencies, thanks for the pointer!10:36
cos-i just checked and it has 3 timers, with 10 min, 5 sec (not repeating) and 10 secs.10:36
*** artemma has joined #sailfishos10:36
cos-not an easy issue to debug10:36
kaltsicos-: you could possibly try to run gdb on the device itself, but the qtcreator to device/emu debugging is broken now10:37
kontiocos-: did you already read: https://together.jolla.com/question/13243/my-app-got-rejected-to-store-because-of-high-power-consumption-how-to-debug-problems/#13247 ?10:37
euroelessarI can't install vim on device by pkcon, hasve somebody faced with the same problem?10:37
cos-kontio: yep.. i'm looking at powertop now10:38
euroelessarpkcon tells that it installed the vim, but it's still is listed as 'Available' package10:38
kaltsieuroelessar: what's the problem?10:38
*** b0bben_ has quit IRC10:39

cos-kontio: siilihai-mobile10:40
cos-it's available in warehouse10:40
*** gigetoo has quit IRC10:40
kaltsieuroelessar: I'm sure you've noticed the device has 'vi' .. but you want 'vim'?10:40
*** gigetoo has joined #sailfishos10:41
euroelessarkaltsi: it has 'vim-minimal'10:41
ottulocos-: I had a problem with that10:41
cos-the best guess i have is that there's some kind of qml transition running forever10:41
euroelessaras I notice it at least has no highligting support10:42
ottulocos-: I was trying to add a certain forum that works with tapatalk on android, for example, but siilihai said there's no support10:42
kaltsieuroelessar: yes.. ok, so what is the problem you are facing? what is the error?10:42
euroelessarkaltsi: pkcon tell me no error10:42
kaltsihow do you try to install it10:42
cos-ottulo: doublecheck that the url is correct.. add mobiquo/mobiquo.php to end of it and see if you get the tapatalk status page10:42
euroelessarpkcon -v install vim10:42
kaltsithis works for me: pkcon install vim-enhanced10:42
kaltsieuroelessar: use 'pkcon search name vim' .. you can see that 'vim' is only the source package but 'vim-enhanced' is the binary package10:43
cos-ottulo: i can try to subscribe it if you give the url10:43
ottulocos-: I did double check the url, tried with/without index.php at the end... and adding "mobiquo" did take me to tapatalk page10:43
ottulocos-: chilifoorumi.fi10:43
euroelessaroh10:44
*** macben has quit IRC10:44
euroelessarkaltsi: thanks, this works10:44
kaltsieuroelessar: yw :)10:44
euroelessarbut why there were no errors or any messages?10:45
cos-ottulo: subscibed to it without problems (on desktop client)10:45
ottulocos-: I was trying on the sailfish client, don't know about desktop10:45
kaltsieuroelessar: for me 'pkcon install vim' does say 'installing packages' and no errors.. it installs the source package so there really was no error10:45
cos-ottulo: hmm but it doesn't display any groups for some reason.10:46
euroelessarthe next question is if there is any alternative for 'update-alternative'10:46
*** freedomrun has quit IRC10:46
euroelessarfrom Debian10:46
euroelessarI want to set 'vi' to be symlink to 'vim'10:46
kaltsieuroelessar: hmm or no.. it didn't install anything, strange10:46
kaltsieuroelessar: no there's no 'alternatives' thing10:46
euroelessarthat's sad :(10:47
kaltsieuroelessar: maybe you could make an alias into your .bashrc ..10:47
cos-ottulo: looks like there is some issue with the forum. thanks for reporting!10:47
cos-tapatalk is not the best of protocols.. some forums implement it a bit differently10:47
euroelessarkaltsi: yes, it can work10:47
ottulocos-: is it something at the forum side or app?10:47
ottulooh, if it's different implementation I guess it's really both/neither10:48
cos-ottulo: don't know yet. i'm trying to get the app to work with all kinds of forum implementations.10:48

*** BeholdMyGlory has joined #sailfishos11:24
coderusthp: i didnt understand what you meant here:11:24
coderus"Would there be situations where the app developer wouldn't want to call app->installTranslator() on the QTranslator object? If not, we might want to do the installTranslator call directly inside libsailfishapp."11:24
thpcoderus: if all apps end up calling app->installTranslator(), then we can just as well do that call in libsailfishapp11:24
thpcoderus: however, if some apps don't call that, or do something else with the qtranslator before, then it makes sense to let the app developer call app->installTranslator()11:25
coderusall apps using only SailfishApp::main would use translator11:26
thpcoderus: yeah, and that is fine. the question is, would any app developer /not/ want to call app->installTranslator() on the QTranslator object?11:26
thp(or rather, would any app developer want to do something else with the QTranslator object before calling installTranslator())11:27
thpif they do, then the way it's done now is okay. otherwise i'd do the app->installTranslator() call inside libsailfishapp so that the app developer doesn't have to add that boilerplate code11:27
coderusthp: main point is saving QTranslator object for having option to switching translations on the fly11:29
euroelessarcoderus: why do you need to save QTranslator items?11:29
euroelessarcoderus: it's not expensive to create a new one by request11:30
*** rcg has joined #sailfishos11:30
coderuseuroelessar: to remove existing translator before installing a new one11:30
*** ndvl has joined #sailfishos11:31
*** nodevel has quit IRC11:32
*** jardous has quit IRC11:33
thpcoderus: switching translations on the fly based on system locale change or based on e.g. some ui elements?11:36
thpcoderus: if based on system locale change, we can probably put that directly into libsailfishapp as well (we don't want every app developer to re-invent listening to these configuration changes and juggling around qtranslator objects)11:37
thpif on some ui elements, then we might need to do that indeed11:37
coderusafaik changing system locale forcing os to restart, no?11:37
thp(or keep some internal state and remove the old translator when a new translator is installed with loadTranslation())11:37
thpcoderus: i'm not even sure, let's check..11:37
*** Pat_o_ has quit IRC11:37
coderusi mean uiu elements, yes. its good to have options to change language if existing translation is weird :)11:38
thpcoderus: yeah, right now when i change the system locale in settings, it will restart the device11:38
thpcoderus: so what about remembering the old QTranslator in libsailfishapp and removing it when a new translation is installed?11:38

LordVansledges, any chance of n900 too?12:32
sledgesMer(Nemo) can be tried on dev board (Pandaboard, AllWinner)12:32
LordVani still got mine12:32

Nicd-some people might want to pay for it to arrive earlier (delivery time is 3-4 weeks from the official store) and of course there's the red limited edition OH12:54
Yanielthat's quite cheap for one on ebay12:54
LordVanhm12:55
LordVanno way i want a red one anyway12:55
LordVan ^^12:56

LordVanhow well do android apps work on it?12:57
radiofreewhere is the bugzilla for jolla/sailfish?12:57
LordVan- I got a few apps i'D definitely want to use still12:57
radiofreei'm loving it so far, but wifi on the device is awful!12:57
LordVanhow come?12:57
LordVanconnection issues?12:57
radiofreeyeah, very few wifi networks i can actually connect to12:58
radiofreemy home one works though!12:58
LordVansounds odd12:58
radiofreebut when i left the flat this morning, it went into some kind of connection spasm12:58
radiofreehad to reboot the whole phone to switch to 3g12:58
LordVanO.o you should definitely report that one .. so it gets fixed should i get one in the future ;)12:58
LordVanhehe12:58
LordVan^^12:58
radiofreeyeah...12:59
radiofreeout of the box only one of the two wireless networks in the office work12:59
radiofreeafter the update neither did :\12:59
radiofreei think it's incorrectly detecting the security settings for it, but there doesn't appear to be anyway to change it13:00
radiofreealso the mobile data stuff needs work13:00
radiofreeit incorrectly default to the first APN on my simcard (it's an o2, but the first on the apn list is giffgaff)13:00
*** KangOl has joined #sailfishos13:01

DarkSimHow is the security in Sailfish?22:21
DarkSimLike Android have permissions and sandboxing22:21
*** onurati has quit IRC22:21
M4rtinKmuch more simple & robust22:22
*** cxl000 has quit IRC22:22
DarkSimBut is it secure?22:22
M4rtinKQA makes sure only safe apps get to the app store22:22
M4rtinKQA = Quality Assurance22:23
specialapplications should be trusted. There is no sandboxing or particularly strong privilege control, currently.22:23
JonniDarkSim: same security than unix directory permissions, so depends if you consider Linux / Unix to be secure.22:23
DarkSimI'm not being offensive though I'm just genuinely curious22:23
DarkSimhaving a smartphone OS debate in another channel22:23
DarkSimmentioned Sailfish and got immediatly shot down for it being insecure in comparison to Android22:24
specialinsecure in the sense of "an application running on the device is able to do things the user may not have wanted", yes22:24
M4rtinKapplication sandboxing is very hard to do properly22:24
Jonniif you compare malware in sailfish vs android,   sailfish = 0, android = 10000000+ so it depends on the point of view22:24
Jonnibut ofcourse installbase is different too22:25
M4rtinKwithout severely limiting application functionality22:25
M4rtinKand once a malicious app gets in, you are in trouble anyway22:25
M4rtinKand considering the crazy wide permissions many Android apps require to even run, even Sandbox is not much help22:27
DarkSimHm, OK22:27
M4rtinKregarding Sailfish OS22:27
M4rtinKit is pretty close to a regular Linux distribution22:28
*** macben has joined #sailfishos22:28
M4rtinKAKA the stuff that runs most servers on the Internet22:28
specialthere's no need for a defensive tone22:28
M4rtinKbut it all boils down to what you install22:29
Jonnimostly security depends on end user, if you install stuff from untrusted sources to desktop machines then its pretty much your own actions that define if your machine is secure or not, same if you root your android and press yes on every permission question from stuff that you sideload.22:30
*** AlmAck has quit IRC22:30
*** dafox has quit IRC22:30
*** freedomrun has joined #sailfishos22:31
*** AlmAck has joined #sailfishos22:31
Jonniand luckily there hasnt been any malware released to sailfish yet, so there hasnt been malware issues, but if at some point sales figures increase and malware writers look in this way, then its upto end users decision if he installs blindly from untrusted sources, or from trusted sources.22:32
*** macben has quit IRC22:32
specialof course, the question is not just about malware22:33
specialthere's also privacy, controlling resources and information on behalf of the user22:33
Jonniwell yes, its just a generalization, ofcourse your servers can have remote exploits etc.22:33
Jonnibut generally sailfish users are quite aware what their device is doing, if they notice some application missbehaving ie gathering some private data etc, its beeing noticed quite quickly.22:36
javispedrotbh, I see nothing wrong in admitting it may be less secure22:37
javispedrobecause this makes it more convenient22:38
specialit is much harder to get away with on a platform with strace, tcpdump, dbus-monitor, and gdb ;)22:38
javispedropeople do this every time22:38
*** mk2soldier has quit IRC22:39
javispedrosay, if your user programs can just open() and read the contacts database,22:39
Jonniwell yes, Harmattan Aegis was more secure in many ways, but it also hindered the progress.22:39
javispedroinstead of having to IPC every contact because of some ultra-strict security sandbox,22:39
javispedromakes the design simpler, more performing, etc.22:39
javispedro(the con is also obvious)22:40
specialthe tradeoffs are something that need careful thought. I'm glad we didn't try to rush into something.22:40
specialI would like to, in time, see more user-empowering security features (like requiring explicit user approval to access certain resources or data)22:41
faenildefinitely22:42
Jonniwell there is the simple unix security protecting for example facebook contacts, nemo user doesnt have access to read that db and rw access is only available on jolla system app group.22:42
faenilI can't run strace/dbg/whatnot on every app I want to install22:42
javispedroeven stock android doesn't go "all the way", as other sandbox proposals have22:44
javispedroe.g. there's still the READ_SDCARD token (=~ STEAL_MY_PHOTOS, READ_MY_BACKUPS, ...)22:44
Jonni(and store QA checks that applications cannot request that group by default).22:44
javispedrowhich every other program requests.22:44
javispedro(as an alternative, they may have gone the "permission dialog is actually a file open dialog" route, so the token grants access to user specified file only)22:45
javispedrobut those are pain to implement, both for platform and program developers.22:45
Jonniand also a pain for end users. I as a end user dont ever want to even see yes/no dialogs, if I see that kind of dialogs I'm throwing and smashing the device on the wall.22:47
faeniljavispedro, but still, I don't really like the fact that apps can do everything without me knowing :/22:47
faenilespecially in a hackers-oriented community22:48
javispedroJonni: sadly, the benevolent dictator approach doesn't work that well with more enlightened users22:48
* javispedro hides22:48
Jonnione of the reasons why I have never gotten me android phone is that I dont want to see any permission dialogs.22:48
javispedrofaenil: well, as Jonni put, the current way is the way desktop Linux has been doing for the past 20 years22:48
faeniljavispedro, yeah but on desktop linux you don't just install random apps22:49

javispedrodon't know -- I certainly install plenty of things on my desktop, possibly way more than on my portable devices.22:50
javispedroand yet each and every of them has the "permission" to delete my entire $HOME.22:50
faenilsure, but what are the sources..22:51
javispedroincluding this very IRC program.22:51
faenilis it 99% completely unknown individuals, like it is on mobile markets?22:51
*** nsm has joined #sailfishos22:51
javispedroquite22:52
Jonniheh, and as long as I have a say in OS there wont be any dialogs in the device. (I might give up on tight dictator view and allow some setting for paranoid people).22:52
*** radiofree is now known as PRIVMSG22:52
faenilJonni, ahah :)22:52
*** PRIVMSG is now known as radiofree22:52
faenilI don't know, I think desktop and mobile are so different you can't just compare them22:52
*** nsm has quit IRC22:52
faenileven just because doing malware for mobiles or getting user data from phones is the last few years' fashion22:53
javispedrofaenil: most of the "protection" on the desktop comes from the fact you're using your distro's repository, and thus "many eyes" have looked at it22:53
javispedrobut a similar reasoning applies to, say, Harbour.22:53
faenildoes it22:53
specialthe state of desktop security is pathetic.22:53
faenilbecause I think it doesn't :)22:53
javispedrofaenil: hey, ask the Harbour guys =)22:53
faeniljavispedro, no I mean, the installbase is not that comparable..22:54
faeniland if there's a package in a distro repo, it's probably not coming from a complete stranger22:54
specialfaenil: you'd be surprised, sometimes :p22:54
faenilyou have so many layers of trust on desktop, which you don't have on mobile/sailfish, imho22:55
javispedrofaenil: true in that at least to get packaged you'd need to make a github repo and some complexity so that a cursory examination does not reveal your evil intentions =)22:55
javispedrowhile on an app store this "cursory examination" is probably limited to running the program and pushing some buttons22:56
faeniljavispedro, I don't remember it being that easy to enter a distro repo, btw22:56
javispedrosuppose that depends on the distr22:57
faenilyep22:57
javispedroJonni: are you against all kinds of prompts? or just android or ios prompt styles? :)22:59
*** Tomiol80 has quit IRC23:00
specialprompts are often a stupid and lazy way to pass the responsibility of being secure onto the (probably unqualified) user.23:00
specialsee also: windows UAC23:00
javispedroyes, but who are you going to pass the responsability? the ghostbusters?23:01
specialbut it's a difficult balance and an area that we're (the computing industry) just starting to explore23:01
specialwell, if you ask Apple, you should pass the responsibility on to them instead. They'll keep you safe.23:01
javispedroand yet they're the inventors of "$PROGRAM wants to mess with your girlfriend. Allow access to contacts?" prompt!23:02
specialthose are good prompts, in my opinion.23:02
specialthey're immediate, they're directly empowering the user, there is a realistic option to decline23:03
speciala bad prompt would be android app stores; you get a huge list of permissions, and your choices are to install with all of those or not install at all.23:03
faenil+123:03
*** arcean_ has joined #sailfishos23:04
javispedroI see annoying prompts as a benefit23:05
javispedrothey're there not to bother the user, but the developer23:05
javispedroat least that was the idea with UAC.23:05
javispedrosupposedly, educated users would prefer programs that would require less of those annoying prompts to work23:05
Jonnijavispedro: well yes, generally I'm against of all kinds of promts, people are stupid and dont understand the questions, and even if someone understands the usability is gone. But yes, I dont have easy solution who to pass the responsibility, maybe some kind of community based voting system which gives plus and minus trust points.23:06
javispedroinstead of blaming the operating system for putting those prompts in the first place.23:06
javispedrounfortunately, educated users are endangered species.23:06
faenilJonni, you can just "remember this" and it's done23:06
faenilor just grant have a setting23:06
faenil"ask" or "grant all"23:06
*** arcean has quit IRC23:07
faenilso you get no prompts and you're happy23:07
*** arcean_ is now known as arcean23:07
special"many people are stupid" is not a valid reason to treat all people as being stupid; if you do this, you have a platform only appealing to stupid people.23:07
faenilbut at the same time if you want to know if it's trying to send your location to the happy developer who wants to make a googlemap of his botnet, you can23:07
javispedrospecial: I think that's the point these days :) there's nothing wrong with assuming a stupid user. A) It sells more B) We all have our stupid days23:08
Jonniwell maybe stupid is not the right reason, the usability is the most important reason for me, I really get annoyed to see prompts23:08
faenilJonni, -> setting :)23:08
specialfaenil: have you never heard my settings rant? :p23:08
faenilspecial, nope23:08
specialsettings are lazy. You should design your application to be usable and ideal for a majority of the users/cases you're targetting without any settings of any kind23:09
JonniI would prefer not to have setting, I'm more dreaming about some trust based voting cloud that verifies my apps and automaticly removes mallware23:09
faenilspecial, agree, but since Jonni really wants to be happy... :p23:09
special*then* you can add settings as tweaks for users and situations that don't fit those cases. Settings aren't an excuse for bad defaults.23:09
faenilspecial, agree23:10
javispedroJonni: that works until the early-adopters of programs decide to revolt because their contacts have been deleted too many times =)23:10
specialJonni: I think malware is a different topic.23:10
Jonniand we 1st have to fix the bigger holes before even thinking about thse kind of settings and dialogs...23:12
faenilthat is a different matter :D23:12
specialacademic discussion right now, no doubt23:12
FireFlyJonni: it's not just malware vs. non-malware. for instance, would you want an arbitrary game or whatever to have the right to read your contacts and messages?23:16
* javispedro grabs two large trouts -- respectively called "extensibility" and "customizability" -- and slaps "no-settings-lover" special with them23:16
Yanielone could consider that "malware"23:16
Yanielif it reads those23:17
specialjavispedro: I'm an OS X user.23:17
*** DarkSim has quit IRC23:17
specialYaniel: what about a social networking application that sends your contacts to a server to discover friends? is that malware? is it only malware if it doesn't ask first?23:18
javispedrospecial: never had the urge to get a global menu bar on $GNU_LINUX_DESKTOP (if you ever used one)?23:18
javispedrospecial: didn't feel sad when e.g. Gnome decided not to offer the option23:19
Yanielfor a social networking app that is kind of an expected feature (albeit one I don't exactly agree with)23:19
Yanielbut for a game? hardly23:19
specialYaniel: the point I'm making is that if you start applying the "malware" label, it gets very vague.23:19
Yanielyes23:19
Yanielthat's what I meant as well23:19
Yanielthe line is quite blurry23:20
specialI would classify "malware" as software that is explicitly acting against the interests of the user or their device; unauthorized bitcoin mining, bank account hijacks, RAT/surveillance23:20
specialthere's a separate category of software that is simply invasive; but everyone's definition there is different.23:21
javispedro(my last line was missing a ?, btw)23:21
javispedroyep23:21
specialjavispedro: I think excessive extensibility and customization is a major weakness of desktop linux, historically. There is a modern trend of eliminating some of it, and it's showing positive results.23:22
javispedrohow many people rejected $CANDY_CRUSH_CLONE because it included "doing whatever it feels like doing with my address book" in its permission list.23:22
*** nsm has joined #sailfishos23:23
javispedrothe fact that these games spam your address book / facebook / etc. are considered _features_ by the users.23:23
pp_send them to 7 ad networks23:23
pp_:-)23:23
FireFlyMake it an optional feature, then23:23
pp_and my imei plaintext over http23:23
pp_welcome to android23:23
javispedroonce you're at that point, 'm not sure how a "one-rule-fits-all" benevolent dictator can keep everyone happy.23:23
FireFlyI want to know what I allow a program to do23:23
specialjavispedro: particularly when said dictator's benevolance is in question, because their revenue is directly from targetted advertising too. Not that I'd mention any companies in particular.23:24

javispedroin its defense tough, the *cough* web search dictator does offer the "long list of permissions" dialog.23:25
Yanielonline highscores... meh, if you insist. but still no address book23:25
specialthe android permissions model is worth studying and learning from, definitely23:25
javispedroone might argue that it's in Google's interests not to actually give any incentive for people to carefully study permissions lists23:26
