Hi Rinigus,
Stripping setuid certainly seems to have worked.
No reboots on installation. Install completes, and angelfish shows up in flatpak-runner, as does the angelfish desktop icon.
Every flatpak install (or uninstall) command issued the following warning between 1 and 3 times:

Code:

bwrap: Can’t mount devpts on /newroot/dev/pts: Operation not permitted

Despite this, the command reports completion and everything seems to work.
On a side note, telegram doesn’t start. The GUI window reports “Application finished with exit code 134” and the terminal looks like this:

Code:

juz: just to be clear - do you still need setuid to run Angelfish? for me it fails to run without setuid.

Thanks for testing. I hope it will be fixed by recompiling against SFOS 3.3, but time will tell.

As for Telegram, maybe coderus can help out. I don't use it myself.

Hi Rinigus,
I hadn't tried running angelfish without restoring setuid. However I have just ran the following:

Code:

devel-su chmod 455 /usr/libexec/flatpak-bwrap

I entered my password, and ran:

Code:

flatpak-runner org.kde.mobile.angelfish

Angelfish starts and seems to run as per usual.
I can provide more info if required,
thanks again,

juz: you mistyped QT_QPA_PLATFORM env value with unwanted = at the end (for telegram)

chmod is expected to be 755, not 455. However, it doesn't change the use for you... Very interesting. This means that either there are changes in kernel options or some extra difference in XZ2 and official Xperia devices. Will learn more when I get to 3.3 SFOS.

coderus: good catch!

Hi Coderus,
I had seen that extra = in the terminal output and couldn’t understand it as it was not shown in the flatpak runner GUI. However, I had typed the whole item on the name line and nothing on the value line! Now I understand how the layout works. Upon entering the correct name and value all works. Thanks for taking a look and for your feedback.
Hi Rinigus,
I wrote the previous post on my phone and that was a typo. I have just checked my terminal and it was 755 I had written. Sorry for the typo.
Thanks for all the work and help getting my installation set up.

Hi everyone,

just stopping by to say thanks to all involved for making this happen!

Running Angelfish on i4293 and 3.3.0.14 Rokua. Feels really good to have an up to date browser for once.

Telegram Desktop has a few hickups but then there’s the native Depecher or Telegra’me.

What other KDE apps might be worth a try?

Seems like Jolla is using an older version of libjson vs. Rinigus repository. I'm not sure if this will break OS stuff that depends on the Jolla provided json-glib or is it safe (having future OS updates in mind) to override this conflict?

Took the pill and installed flatpak on Xperia X using the updated installation instructions w/out using zypper but pkcon. Pkcon did not show any version mismatch that zypper did before so packages got installed without hicups. On the other hand I experied the same system reboot others did, but flatpak-runner installed ok and after launching it the Anglefish icon showed up.

Observations compared Sony X vs XA2: Anglefish runs obviously faster on XA2 compared to X. X is somehow laggy and scrolling isn't that smooth as on XA2. Therefor I wonder if h/w acceleration (OpenGL ES) is missing with the wayland compositor and how it can be enabled if possible?

Other than that great work and kudos to Rinigus for making this possible

Cheers,
Nek

PS:Even if juddery I quite like Anglefish as an updated browser compared to stock Firefox 45.

I don't know relative performance of X vs XA2, but I thought they were not that far apart. It is possible that some lib or acceleration is not hooked for X. Now the trick will be to find what. Namely, compare the libs loaded by hybris for some native sailfish app and angelfish.

For that, you have to check what are debug vars for hybris on X (they may have changed between X and XA2). For me, its HYBRIS_LINKER_DEBUG=1 HYBRIS_LD_DEBUG=1

So, for example: HYBRIS_LINKER_DEBUG=1 HYBRIS_LD_DEBUG=1 flatpak-runner

This is for SFOS native.

and then run

flatpak-runner --env=HYBRIS_LINKER_DEBUG=1 --env=HYBRIS_LD_DEBUG=1 org.kde.mobile.angelfish

this is for Flatpak. Then we can compare and add missing libs into
.local/share/flatpak/extension/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.host/arm/1.4
