When you can cross compile your programs you can copy them to your phone and run them.

How difficult this task will be depends largely what dependencies your programs have.

Before some time (Canonical was still working on Ubuntu Touch). I remounted the system rw and installed some programs via apt. Than they could be used in terminal like normal programs.

I do not know if apt can still be used, but with your own programs this should be a possible way. Maybe it is sufficient to have them only in your home directory.

By the way it should also be possible to build click apps with unconfined access. I never tried it my self, but I have used own build apps with extended privileges to access the sdcard in my phone.

Hallo,

currently I want to get pure-maps and osmscout-server running in desktop mode (clickable desktop).
For pure-maps it works without problems, but I can not get it running for osmscout-server.

Building the click package is working for both apps.

When I start osmscout-server with "clickable desktop" only the error message occur: amd64-nvidia is not supported by the qmake build yet

So I asked myself what is the difference between both apps? When running with the verbose flag, you can see that different docker images are used:

• pure maps
  • Using docker container "clickable/ubuntu-sdk:16.04-amd64-nvidia"
• osmscout-server
  • Using docker container "clickable/ubuntu-sdk:16.04-amd64-nvidia-195a4200-9cf2-4030-88c4-70800ba70f8c"

I guess the difference is that pure maps uses the latest version of the image and osmscout-server a fixed version. So I tried to change the docker image used by osmscout-server with
clickable desktop --verbose --docker-image "clickable/ubuntu-sdk:16.04-amd64-nvidia"

The result is the error message:
Container was not initialized with Container Mode. This seems to be a bug in Clickable.

So what I am doing wrong?
Where it is defined which docker image is used for "clickable desktop"?
How do I get osmscout-server running in desktop mode?
