Possible real fix as described in bug #1479001 This change has the side effect (a regression) of making it impossible to sideload an older version of a click, since the system hooks are run on boot: the older versions will be unregistered upon the next boot. We believe this is fixable by comparing the timestamps of a user's registrations with the newer version of the click included in the OTA update, and only unregister if the user's registration is older than the OTA update's.
Unfortunately, that hits another issue where the user registrations timestamps seem to get updated upon every reboot, which means they'll always be newer than the OTA update's. We believe we can resolve this by making the user hooks a little smarter about touching registrations that don't need to be touched, but it still requires a bit more investigation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to click in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1513860 Title: 'Latest' version of a click package used after reboot Status in Client Developer Experience: Confirmed Status in click package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The 'latest' version of a click package is used after a reboot, even when a click with a lower version has been manually installed. What happened: 1) Install a click packages for an existing application with a lower version than that of the preinstalled one 2) Launch the app and notice that the newly installed is launched 3) Reboot the device 4) Launch the app and notice that the preinstalled one is used due to it having a higher version What was expected to happen: At step 4) for the manually installed version of the click package to still be the selected one This affects the developer experience for example, when working on the bgplaylists of the music-app the branch has a lower version (bzr rev) than trunk/what is in the store, and after installing new versions of media-hub to test the device must be restarted. So after each restart the developer must also remember to reinstall the click package. $ apt-cache policy click click: Installed: 0.4.40+15.04.20151006-0ubuntu1.1 Candidate: 0.4.40+15.04.20151006-0ubuntu1.1 Version table: *** 0.4.40+15.04.20151006-0ubuntu1.1 0 1001 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ci-train-ppa-service/stable-phone-overlay/ubuntu/ vivid/main armhf Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 0.4.38.5ubuntu0.2 0 500 http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ vivid-updates/main armhf Packages 500 http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ vivid-security/main armhf Packages 0.4.38.5 0 500 http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ vivid/main armhf Packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-developer-experience/+bug/1513860/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
