This can't be retested currently because bug #1461897 prevents successful running of Qt 5.5 on phone.

Qt 5.5 final is now testable on the phone and the bug persists.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

@ Timo Jyrinki

When setting priority to an Ubuntu package, keep in mind that is prioritization among all the available packages in Ubuntu.

So by setting this bug to "critical" you are saying that it has equal importance as bugs that render the operating system unusable, allows malicious users to hack into the system, or damages user data. Which obviously isn't the case, but rather an issue in an specific application that, even when it's important, it doesn't make the rest of the system harmful or useless.

Because of that, and because this application isn't in the "main" repository, I'm lowering this bug importance to "medium". If you are planing to include the application in the "main" repository, please feel free to raise its importance to "high". Thank you.

qtubuntu-camera needed porting to the new role API, but that does not seem to be enough alone.

Now the camera log says "Cannot create signal socketpair" but this is actually an existing UI Toolkit bug #1484004 that is not properly fixed yet. So it's possible/probable camera-app itself will not require any fixes.

I managed to fix the UITK bug properly now, and camera started working! So, all that is needed is qtubuntu-camera porting and UITK fix.

This bug was fixed in the package qtubuntu-camera - 0.3.3+16.04.20151202.1-0ubuntu1
