I've finally managed to build the release of KOreader for Android, but I've run into some issues.
I've updated the manual to reflect the solutions I've found.
The issues I've found are:
1. The version of the needed Android SDK platform isn't described anywhere;
2. xutils-dev is missing from the prerequisites, while it provides the `makedepend` utility used by the openssl build system;
3. Finally, for the Android build it is necessary to install JDK version 8.
The ABS_PRESSURE ABS code is also detected on some KOBO devices
if ABS_PRESSURE events are feeded to handle orientation those devices
will have a unresponsive screen as described in #2219.
This patch registers an event adjustment handler for Kindle Oasis to
adjust the ABS_PRESSURE code to ABS_OASIS_ORIENTATION code so that
it won't affect event handling on other devices.
and have more confidence with the unit testing framework.
Now `make testfront` won't retry on failure and testing files are
ordered in each run so that it's possible to reproduce testing failure.
And this patch also fix flush settings not working before suspend issue:
at some point the `FlushSettings` event is sent to `UIManager` instead
of `ReaderUI`, but `UIManager` only delegated events to active widgets
and `ReaderUI` is actually not an active widgets thus will miss the event.
This patch also add a verbose debug mode with "-v" as a switch to turn
on this mode. With verbose mode on, event handling will be logged.
1. It turns out that `device_id` is not defined in unit test environment
which makes the `assert(self.kosync_device_id)` fail and somehow makes `luajit` segmentation fault.
2. In the device spec, stubbing `io.open` will make subsquent `require`
all return boolean value and segmentation fault `luajit`.
This patch is a minimum viable change that makes CI work on both my
local box and Travis.
Disable wakeup_count handling, that's often causing more harm than
anything else...
Nickel doesn't even use it, that should have been a hint ;).
Make the logging slightly less confusing.
Add commented out debug features (dumping relevant dmesg output).
