Hola!

Esta es una lista de discusión del desarrollo de ubuntu en sí, no para
reportar errores. Para eso, te recomiendo que abras una terminal e
ingreses"ubuntu-bug qbittorrent".
Por otro lado, acá tengo 20.04, instalé qbittorrent y este inició sin
inconvenientes, así que es probable que el problema sea en que la
versión de 20.04 del programa no entienda algo en la configuración
anterior, es decir que probablemente la gente de qbittorrent misma te
pueda ayudar mejor que nosotros.

Suerte!

for what it's worth, note Michael has been very good about backporting
bugfixes to 1.6 (thanks!)

No it's not.

That's how it was defined in python 2, yes. The definition changed for
3. This is _more_ friendly, because in 2 you could very easily
inadvertently use up a lot more memory than you were wanting to. If
all you wanted was to loop over things, zip (and dict's keys and
values and items, and range) now do the right thing. If you actually
wanted the list you pass it to list(), and make your wants explicit.

I was thinking in the other direction, was going to see how it behaved
with sqlite as the store. Would that be objectionable?

Re: What is the best way to package going forward (deb or snap?)

[John Lenton]

Before getting to my reply I should point out two things:

* I work on snapd itself, and think it's the bees' knees and the way
forwards for getting software into its user's hands: all the
convenience of a PPA, without needing to give unconstrained root to
random people on the internet. Also, you can point people on SUSE and
Fedora to it as well.

* I have tried three times in the past ten years to become an Ubuntu
member / developer, and gave up three times in frustration after
getting nowhere for months; I'm at this point sceptical of the whole
self-selected elite thing. It certainly works to generate bureaucracy
and roadblocks to doing what you want, namely getting software into
people's hands.

I think snaps is what you want :-)
I think your best bet is to use snapcraft, craft a snapcraft.yaml that
works to package the tools into a *strict* snap (this might involve
working with us in snapd to add interfaces, if what the tools do isn't
already covered by existing ones) (note you can make a snap private,
if the tools in question have a license that doesn't let you
distribute binaries), and then offer that snapcraft.yaml to upstream.
They can tie this into their CI so they'd have a snap autobuilt and
pushed to edge for every commit, and have separate tracks for
different concurrent stable revisions if they have that, and get stats
about users and such.

HTH,

As a happy user of a GTX 970 on xenial's 4.4, I'm puzzled by your assertion.

yeah, that'd need dmidecode which isn't in core. Its only 100k though... ;-)

Re: Ubuntu Touch File System

[John Lenton]

You could start doing this, for example:

find / -writable -ls

this will print out a list of every user-writable file on the device.

 However, I can't find, for example, actual SMS messages stored there, or
 the phonecalls' list and other data.

 Imagine that this is a forensic investigation and you want to find
 possible incriminating evidence. This is the scenario I have to work with.
 So far the only evidence I have managed to find is the file in which the
 WiFi passwords are stored. And that is not located in the home directory.

 Could you please be a bit more specific with your answer?

 All such data is stored underneath the home directory (~/phablet). Most
 of the data is stored in XDG directories, for which the environment
 variables are modified for each confined application, so that data is
 not accessible by other applications.

 you for some assistance.

 My task is to find where User Data is stored on the device. By that, I

 etc.
 I am mainly interested in which directories of the filesystem some of
 this

 manner.

 I hope you can help me. Thank you in advance and I am looking forward to
 your answer.

 Sincerely,

Alex Stavroulakis said he's working on a class project. So we're
trying to give him pointers so he can find the information he needs,
without actually doing his homework for him. Your quite comprehensive
description of the phone's filesystem is probably as far as we can go.

Go 1.3 is unmaintained/unsupported upstream

[John Lenton]

Go 1.3.3, which we are shipping in Vivid, is unmaintained upstream¹
(yes, despite being released less than six months ago).

Would it be possible to move to 1.4 in vivid? This wouldn't fix the
fact that it will become unmaintained in Vivid's timeframe, but at
least we can get the bugs we find during development fixed upstream.

 Hi,

 I saw that all py files from python-colorama (v0.2.5) which is used in
 Ubuntu 14.04.1 has DOS line endings (\r\n) instead of Unix line endings
 (\n).

 Some applications in Ubuntu have an assumption of Unix line endings in file
 causing unexpected behaviour, e.g.:
 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340841

 Is this a bug?

a user-facing program that crashes because of the line endings of a
file not being the system's default has a bug, yes.

Adobe doesn't care about Flash any more, especially on Linux. There is
however an (I thought) well-known workaround for this issue:
