Public bug reported: Using the 14.04 ppa packages, the snapshot functionality does not appear to work.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Create an x86 image by doing: $ sudo XDG_CACHE_HOME=$HOME/emulator ubuntu-emulator create --channel=ubuntu-touch/utopic-proposed --arch=i386 test_x86 2. start the emulator: $ ubuntu-emulator run --scale=0.5 test_x86 3. Wait for it to show unity, then cleanly shutdown: $ adb shell shutdown -h now Then I waited for the console to tell me: * All processes ended within 1 seconds... [ OK ] at which point I closed the emulator window. 4. update the pristine snapshot: $ ubuntu-emulator snapshot --create=pristine test_x86 5. start the emulator: $ ubuntu-emulator run --scale=0.5 test_x86 6. Create a file on the device: $ adb shell touch /foo 7. Forcibly shutdown the emulator by closing the window. 8. Revert to pristine: $ ubuntu-emulator snapshot --revert-pristine test_x86 9. start the emulator: $ ubuntu-emulator run --scale=0.5 test_x86 At this point I would expect /foo to not exist in the emulator, but it does: $ adb shell ls -l /foo -rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 May 16 17:30 /foo ** Affects: goget-ubuntu-touch (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1320307 Title: snapshot command doesn't work with x86 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/goget-ubuntu-touch/+bug/1320307/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
