Moving to 2.2: this does not make sense before Sato gtk3 patchset. This didn't make 2.2, moving to 2.3. I have done a bit of testing and review though. We should move to https://github.com/jgke/connman-gtk : it's fairly modern, well made and actually supports most (all?) connman features. Only depends on Gtk+3 and glib-2.0 as well. A patch may be required to get the notification icon working but that should be easy. Documenting the lack of progress here: the project linked in comment 2 is still a valid option (and more modern than the code we currently use) but I haven't gone through the trouble of integrating it into Sato as it too is pretty much abandoned now :( Last commits were December 2015... connman-gtk from comment 2 appears dead but is less dead that connman-gnome or connman-ui. We should give it a go. Initial version of connman-gtk is available here: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/commit/?h=maxin/contrib&id=3e43663db828b44da5719cb73c59330931dc44e6 sent to oe-core mailing list: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2018-March/148284.html Please rebase and resend. Did you test with on real hardware with ethernet and wifi? Updated version of connman-gtk available here: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/commit/?h=maxin/connman-gtk&id=f6a2114793fdcad1009bf6c1da6bd5cc70596f1f Known limitations: 1. Relaunching from status icon doesn't work in core-image-sato. *** Bug 5874 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** connman-gtk not very active but still worth doing. connman-gtk has been abandoned, so I think when we move away from sato we either bring it back from the dead or find something else. Closing. |
