There was a meeting today with the Mir team and some stakeholders and I
believe the outcome was that mir-libs will continue to be the only
supported source for Mir libraries.
So we should probably do the following:
- Drop Mir libraries from the ubuntu-app-platform snap.
- Update snapcraft-desktop-helpers to stop including Mir libraries in
consuming snaps and to point at mir-libs's libraries if they are being
used.
- Update all Mir-consuming snaps to plug into mir-libs and to include
the path in their LD_LIBRARY_PATH. And to remove any accidentally
included duplicate libraries in their own snap.
I'm working on #2 there (snapcraft-desktop-helpers). I'll add a task
here. I'll also work on converting the unity8 snap to use mir-libs.

Title:
mirclient gets out of sync
Status in Ubuntu App Platform:
In Progress
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Because we directly include mir client libraries in the platform (due
to a dependency of qtubuntu), when the mir interface is revised we get
out of sync. The mir team publishes a mir-libs snap that tracks these
changes and exposes a mir-libs content interface. We should
investigate if that can be used transparently by apps connected to the
platform.
as of this report they are out of sync.
