Hi,<div><br></div><div>Looking a this from the Mer point of view there are a couple of points :-</div><div><br><div>1. Mer currently has util-linux 2.19.1, I will raise a bug to get this upgraded to 2.20 or latest upstream.</div>
<div>2. Mer has systemd and not sysvinit system so that may need some work. Modules can be configured at <span style="background-color:rgb(235,241,245);color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:monospace;font-size:10px;line-height:19px">/etc/modules-load.d/*.conf</span></div>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> I am integrating private activities in basysKom's MeeGo image, this is a summary of what I have done so far. I created some dependencies packages for encfs in Project:KDE:Security in obs:</p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">util-linux: fuse passes parameters '--no-canonicalize' and sometimes '--fake', which requires util-linux >= 2.18 (MeeGo uses util-linux-ng 2.16). I needed to upgrade util-linux-ng to utilinux-2.20 to make those parameters available. The parameters are there for security reasons according to fuse changelog.</p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> Javier, Maurice, as discussed in the last telco you can start integrating those packages in the next devel image. Just one notice: fuse kernel module should be loaded before using encfs and I have not found how to autoload kernel modules in MeeGo. What I did in my test image is add the line below to /etc/rc.local:</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">modprobe fuse</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> If there is no other way to autoload kernel modules I can add a post-install script to the fuse package to add the line to rc.local.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> We also need to update libkactivities package to use the code from branch ivan/activity-encryption (kactivities repository), which Marco created a couple of days ago. I pushed some fixes to that branch yesterday. Anyone can take care of this?</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> I have been changing the activity configuration dialog to add a switch to mark one activity as private like in the mock-ups Fania sent to the list last Monday. It should be ready by the evening (Brazil's time :-)).</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> There are some problems I postponed for now:</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">. when marking the activity as public (not encrypted) the encfs xml configuration file is not removed. I think we should remove it if it is not needed anymore. </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">. when typing a wrong password kamd shows error message but still switch to the activity. It should abort the switching. By what I saw I think kamd is doing the switch and only afterwards it asks for the password. I think it should do the opposite.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">. sometimes the kdialog gets behind other windows. For example, when booting sometimes it gets behind the ksplash, sometimes it is behind plasma-device's home screen. In this last case we can use the task switcher to make it to the front, still it is important to make it kdialog really modal.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"> </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">. there is a Ok and Cancel buttons in the kdialog used to ask for password. When we click/tap on the Cancel button or when the password is wrong kamd should not try to open the private activity and try to open a public one, like we have been discussing in the other thread. For now it opens the private one even if the encryped data remains inaccessible.</p>
