User-Agent Chromium Version outdated #223
Comments
Current status on upgrading QtWebEngine/Chromium is that we run into an Internal Compiler Error when building the Skia parts of QtWebEngine on armhf. This requires either help from Canonical and/or patching GCC ourselves. Current QtWebEngine 5.13 status: https://github.com/ubports/qtwebengine-opensource-src-packaging/tree/xenial_-_webengine-5-13 |
@fredldotme what about "user agent" :/ |
Newer Chromium should have a newer User Agent also. |
The user agent for Morph is set in https://github.com/ubports/morph-browser/blob/xenial/src/Morph/Web/UserAgent02.qml. This is taken from the QtWebEngine release, which was closest to Chromium 65 for QWE 5.11, which we are using: https://github.com/qt/qtwebengine/blob/5.11/dist/changes-5.11.0. Qt then backports security fixes from newer releases of Chromium. It's worth noting that Qt 5.11 is no longer supported, so it is very important to upgrade past it. |
The chromium version on UBports is outdate. I hove ubports team will change user agent on browser to use message on facebook.com (link window phone).
