Hey all, I've honestly been trying all day without success and I'm not sure what to try next.

I'm looking to get Python3.7 or newer (preferably 3.10.x) installed on my Nexus5 and I cant for the life of me figure it out.

libertine-container-manager create --id test
libertine-container-manager exec -i test -c "/bin/bash"
python3 --version

within this container I've tried add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa without success. I've downloaded and complied openssl-1.1.1v successfully(?) and Python-3.11.2 but when I try and pip install It says I haven't complied with SSL. Each time I try it takes almost 2 hours to get to this point.

root@ubuntu-phablet:~/Python-3.8.12# /python/bin/python3 --version
Python 3.11.2
root@ubuntu-phablet:~/Python-3.8.12# /python/bin/python3 -c "import ssl; print('yay')"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/python/lib/python3.11/ssl.py", line 100, in <module>
    import _ssl             # if we can't import it, let the error propagate
    ^^^^^^^^^^^
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_ssl'
root@ubuntu-phablet:~/Python-3.8.12# /python/bin/python3 -m pip install --user matrix-nio

WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'SSLError("Can't connect to HTTPS URL because the SSL module is not available.")': /simple/matrix-nio/

any one have any ideas?

Hey guys, I'm looking for a bit of direction. I have a Nexus 5 on
OTA 11
Image 20191016-9670

If I reboot my nexus 5 and I receive an MMS message 4 filehandles are open to the one MMS file:

root@ubuntu-phablet:~# lsof 2>/dev/null | grep mms
root@ubuntu-phablet:~# lsof 2>/dev/null | grep mms
ubuntu-do 6059          phablet   10u      REG     179,28       493     696937 /home/phablet/.local/share/nuntium/store/2b74cc3336f35c253c9929ded3fc64e7.mms

Then I send myself another MMS message it opens more and doesn't close the handle.

Sending SMS messages does not affect this and they seem to be open forever. so I deleted one within the messages app and one from the command line:

And this just keeps going up for each MMS file I receive. I found this because I run my own python script to bridge SMS/MMS messages to Matrix/Riot and so I never touch this device. Its plugged in all the time and I only ever use matrix on a different device to text. Eventually it fails because there is too many open files... It's worth noteing that the above testing was done before I started my python script and the below was after a couple months of uptime/use.

This is how it looked before I rebooted my phone:

Is this a problem for anyone else?

I've never contributed to an open source project before and I'm pretty new to programming but I'd love to dig though the code myself. Anyone have any idea where I'd even start to look to find out where I'd need to close off these file handles? it seems like its in ubuntu-download-manager

I'm just wondering if there is an easy option available for me to send MMS messages programmatically (command line or simple app). I have a Nexus 5 device.

I've found some resources on how to send SMS messages but I'm specifically wondering about MMS/Pictures.

Thanks!
