Just to update on this, the new patch to use generic plugin by default (which many tests assume) and only disable it via environment variable made it possible to keep tests enabled. The last upstream commit related to fixing this bug was also merged to Qt 5.5. Silo 032 is updated for the backports to Qt 5.4.1.
I was not able to find out what to do about the weather app's newly gained network access problem, but if you want to help please try out https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/landing-032/ on vivid-overlay (rc-proposed channel). You need to add "QT_EXCLUDE_GENERIC_BEARER=1" to /etc/environment for proper testing (this would be automatically included in ubuntu-touch-session scripts if this would be shipped). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1470700 Title: QNetworkAccessManager hangs when in flight mode Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in thumbnailer package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: When my phone is in flight mode, HTTP requests made using QNetworkAccessManager seem to hang rather than erroring out immediately. From my tests, it looks like the HTTP request is blocked until the flight mode is disabled and a network connection is reestablished. This is contrary to the documentation, which states: """If the network is not accessible the network access manager will not process any new network requests, all such requests will fail with an error. Requests with URLs with the file:// scheme will still be processed.""" http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qnetworkaccessmanager.html#networkAccessible- prop By running strace on my test program, it doesn't even look like it attempts to open a TCP connection when blocked in flight mode.
