    @freddo I see that files on system-image.ubports.com are stored with digital signatures, so, the situation is better here, but still requires implementing mechanism of choosing mirrors in installer software. I'll take a look at that soon. Thanks

    TEXStudio is working in Libertine! The generation of sample documents went well. Tested on channel 24.04/daily on Fairphone 4. RAM usage topped at 2.7GB (free -h). Other working things that are often used together with TEXStudio in the same libertine container: inkscape (vector graphics) atril (pdf viewer) thunar (file manager) Other; mousepad (text editor) parole (music) Not working as well out of the box: emacs gedit leafpad (usable, complaining about wayland) Observations xfce software tends to work with libertine. Some windows get a window title bar that I didn't figure out how to get rid of. Some apps in libertine are in bright mode. Maybe there is a way to add dark mode theme to a libertine container. A libertine container can say you need to run dpkg --configure -a as root to fix an installation gone wrong. How to become root in a libertine container is not straight forward. su - not working. su phablet not working. libertine-container-manager exec -i noble -c "/bin/bash" and then fakeroot seems to work.

    @ma Thanks for your suggestion. Things are working now since downgrading to 24.04.1.x RC. I think the 24.04.2.x version had several things in read-only mode (only guessing from reading the logs that were generated). Even when trying commands as sudo, received similar errors "need root access, read access, etc". Appreciate your input.

    @Alain Are you using the Qt6 version or the preinstalled one? This is a strange issue because it seems like you're tapping on "save as pdf" instead.

    Flashing firmware takes an eternity

    @Merlu said in Flashing firmware takes an eternity: stuck at the step "flashing firmware" since hours. I take it that 'hours' means literally more than 120 minutes. If it is the case, I'd say that it's abnormally long, yes. It could maybe mean that the download from Internet crashed (network glitch), or that after a successful download the transfer via USB crashed. IMO the #1 probable culprit for this last problem could be a low quality USB cable. In both cases you'd probably expect a good error message, but the installer is not that polished to have faultless (!) error reporting. @Merlu said in Flashing firmware takes an eternity: Is there a risk to brick my phone if i interrupt the process? Possibly but if you are stuck since 3 hours, I don't think there is much else you can do. Normally the low-level firmware, that allows for the phone to be flashed, is not touched by the process, so even if the phone don't start after that, you can try again to flash it, possibly with a better quality USB cable. That's exactly what happened to me when I installed UT.

    @viko As has been said, dtbo.img is generally not needed. If the port doesn't boot, the issue is more like due to other reasons. Feel free to check the porting docs I linked you in Telegram.

    @Vlad-Nirky Thanks - I'll mess around with that later. I do have a cron job rsynching keepass and gnucash files from my Ubuntu desktop to my Raspberry Pi. My Windows 11 laptop runs Ubuntu in WSL. I use rsynch to grab current keepass and gnucash files off the pi. I am rusty on setting up keys, so will need to reread some documentation. But that would solve keepass currency issues pretty quickly.

    BTW it appears that the latest UBports 24.04 version does now natively support encryption using ext4 (?) fscrypt, using the lock-screen passphrase: https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/ubuntu-touch-session/-/issues/22#note_2475632676 I haven't tried this out yet, but I'm looking forward to.
