@advocatux : You're right !... I didn't catch it before. I was looking for a scroller on right side with only one finger and I missed this line too in the tutorial.
This is too much ! This App is really the best
I'm going to (modify or) comment my post on the Tutorial page
Thank you and have a good day

@lakota : Hello
Fine tutorial !
I would like to post a comment but it is requested to login.
Please is it the same login as this forum or do I have to register once more on UBports website ?

Hello,
@unisuperbox said in Confinement / Sandboxes: > Ubuntu Touch's confinement model means that you already have what you want.
@pulsar33 said in Confinement / Sandboxes: > only used apparmor as it was included in my legacy BQ E5 UT edition (AFAIK), and without modifying the policies.
Thank you for your answer. So if I understand, we definitely have to deal with apparmor which has no GUI and no easy management mean. With my BQ E5 UT, I use Permy (Jamie Strandboge) to look at the permissions of the installed apps. Unfortunately, this application is not available on OpenStore. Moreover, this application was only a viewer and the permission syntax is not so easy to manage.
Following your answer, I'll try to improve my understanding and mainly investigate about the permission granularity. I think that two main goals are to be reached when managing security for a newly installed application :
When I say "Fine" I speak of granularity. I don't know if fine is the right term in english. For example, if I want to install Sensor Status, I have to grant "Networking" for that app. Why ???. I don't want to do so. This is a huge example but there's some finest cases where maybe I'll want to grant local network access but no wide network access, and so on ...
It would be nice for me to clone Permy which has no recent update but at this time, I'm starting the programming course and I'm not fully operational :o))
Other feelings and advices are welcome
Best regards

Thank you for your replies, however is there some specialists or developpers here to have an idea of the futur, please ?
Under MINT18.3, I'm using Firejail who does exactly what I think usefull and easy to manage. Is there a chance to have it under UBports ? (or what is the best alternative ?)
Good evening

Hello,
I'm not sure I've done the right things and I hope a "guru" will warn me if necessary but I found how to update the device-armhf kit :
lxc exec device-armhf -- /bin/bash
root@device-armhf:/# cd /etc/apt
root@device-armhf:/etc/apt# sed -i "s|archive|old-releases|" sources.list
root@device-armhf:/etc/apt# sed -i "s|ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports|old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu|" sources.list
Then, the (long) update ends with no error.
This seems fine but I must now understand why all my choices are for 14-10 framework despite the fact that my kits are made with 15-04 framework ...
Solution is welcome !
Best regards

Hello,
Maybe have a look to this thread

@talkless @chris @mimecar : Well shot Guys !
Thank you for the tip. I didn't try for the armhf-device kit but I succeed for the desktop kit. In fact, the configuration is different for the two kits and the desktop kit only involves "archive". So the tip of @Talkless was clean and the (long) update took place without error.

The HelloWorld example compiles and runs without problem.
Upon the next launch of Qt Creator, only the armhf-device update is proposed.
Finding ports.ubuntu.com correct source may solve the last problem.

@advocatux @mimecar : Hello
Thank you for the reply, however I'm not sure to know what to do now. As far as I understand, the problem is to update the kits, not my system which is perfectly up to date (I use MINT18.3). I've searched the whole GUI of Qt Creator but not found how to specify the sources.
Where are defined the sources for the kits ?
Moreover, why am I the first to have the problem following the Programming Course if the end of life of Vivid was in February 2016 ?
Good evening
