[Touch-packages] [Bug 1608342] Re: Add a scope to expose native GTK apps (without Xmir)
It appears this now exists.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1608342] Re: Add a scope to expose native GTK apps (without Xmir)
I half expected that answer. Just want people to start thinking about it now. We could curate the list by hand, as apps are found/fixed to be working. Alternatively we could add a switch to eliminate the confinement limitations so people can run arbitrary legacy software (and there will be more demands for that, so be ready for it). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1608342 Title: Add a scope to expose native GTK apps (without Xmir) Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in unity8-desktop-session: New Status in unity-scope-click package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Add a scope to expose native GTK apps (without Xmir).

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1608342] Re: Add a scope to expose native GTK apps (without Xmir)
If the .desktop files have the correct attributes, then the apps scope will already show them. However, it's my understanding that we won't generally support all native apps installed to the system, as things that can be run under Mir, as so many just won't work, and even if they will launch because the toolkit has a Mir back-end, the confinement and app lifecycle restrictions would also cause problems. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1608342 Title: Add a scope to expose native GTK apps (without Xmir) Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in unity8-desktop-session: New Status in unity-scope-click package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Add a scope to expose native GTK apps (without Xmir).
