Just a quick note that:
Fahrplan you noted (heh, I was quicker).
Tidings was updated today (I had a long window for path migration).
Machines vs. Machines also (had forgotten!)
Moremahjong (had a failed path migration, moved to noarch anyway, updated)

I think the rest are ‘clean’. Ha, ha, ha. I mean, in serious need of refactoring and proper care.

I just tested “Advanced camera” and SD card seems to be accessible with default permissions. Anyway, it is nicer to request just permissions that are really needed… https://github.com/piggz/harbour-advanced-camera/pull/130 cc @piggz

There’s no music player working fine in sfos 4.4, except jolla media player. Unplayer, QuasarMX and DeadBeef don’t work, and editing .desktop file don’t fix it

#5

soon i’ll modify Mattermost for SailfJail …

#6

Small issue selecting the databasefile of harbour-ownKeepass, only possible at sandbox accessible locations (for example Documents folder).Even though the application is running unsandboxed, it can’t find all folders @ home.

UnPlayer, TaleFish & GPodder work for me. My media is on my sd-card, and GPodder downloads its own media, but it all does work for me.

Did you edit desktop file? If I do it, app disappeared. That happens to me with unplayer, quasarmx and deadbeef. My music is in sdcard, so I can’t use these apps.

#11

Ok, I was using symbolic links, I solved by using full path.

But DeadBeef doesn’t work. If I open a folder, and add it to the list, when I open the app again, the list is empty

#12

No, I did not. I only edited the .desktop file for storeman.
My sd-card isn’t encrypted. That might be the issue?

I don’t think so, my sdcard isn’t encrypted neither

#14

Unplayer works just fine here.

Gpsinfo does not work for me when launching it from the desktop icon. It works when launching it from a shell. I suppose this is related to SailJail?

#16

Should be. Are you using the latest version ( 0.15.0-1)? It adds SailJail support.

#17

Thanks, I just upgraded to 0.15.0-1 from openrepos, but it is still the same: Gps is active. “Time to First Fix” is counting seconds. “Satellites in use/view” shows “0 / 20” all other measurings just show a dash.
EDIT: I notice that the only permission that gpsinfo asks for is “Location”. I use suplpatcher, so I need Internet too, I guess?
I added “Internet” to the gpsinfo entry in /home/.system/var/lib/sailjail/settings/user-100000.settings
but no change.

#18

QuasarMX Pro seems to work correctly for me, though, without any modifications to the desktop file.

Thank you for your comment! Yep, I noticed that QuasarMx and Unplayer don’t access to my music folder because I was using symbolic links. I changed to the full path: /run/media/defaultuser/… (it’s in sdcard), and now it works fine.

Suplpatcher only works through SIM data internet. It doesn’t work with wifi.

#21

I am aware of that and I do indeed use SIM data internet.

#22

Now you that you mention it, I´ve used /media/sdcard/<…>/** as my music folder and that works fine.
