==== Tech Notes ====
Since the playback now is performed in a thread the curate_cache could
clean out generated speech before or in the middle of playing back the
queue.
==== Fixed Issues ====
#1141
==== Tech Notes ====
Curate cache now only removes cache files if the diskspace is below the
set percentage AND if below a set amount of free disk space
==== Tech Notes ====
- removed old main.py
- replace reference to ConfigurationManager in api tests
- reset configuration after use in configuration test
- Pep-8 issue
==== Tech Notes ====
Previous approach did not work as websocket client was not running, this
uses the standalone send functionality recently added to send a single
message.
==== Tech Notes ====
Since the voice is a quite large download stalling download is a real
possibility. Using wget allows for resume and retry of download in a
simple way.
==== Tech Notes ====
- Using download utility to download voice binary
- reverts to default voice if not premium
- uses default voice during download and switches over when done
Remove the hardcoded DEFAULT_SKILLS list from MSM, instead read it
from the https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-skills/DEFAULT-SKILLS
list.
Additionally, a platform-specific list will also be loaded, allowing
platforms like KDE, etc. to have different defaults. These are also
loaded from the mycroft-skills repo from a file named like:
DEFAULT-SKILLS.platform
Also began the work to support a custom local skill folder location,
specified in the /etc/mycroft/mycroft.conf.
==== Fixed Issues ====
A failed requirements.sh run would not send an install failure
notification on the messagebus.
==== Documentation Notes ====
NONE - description of a new feature or notes on behavior changes
==== Localization Notes ====
NONE - point to new strings, language specific functions, etc.
==== Environment Notes ====
MSM now uses the 'jq' utility. This should already be installed on
a Picroft/Mark 1, but I added it to the dev_setup.sh also.
The audio service could not handle https URLs. VLC can support them,
so https was added to its supported_uris. Additionally, the play( )
function in the audio service could not actually correctly search the
backends for a supported uri, so the code there has been fixed
When (re)booting a Mark 1 unit will show rolling eyes until it reaches
a "ready" state. This happens by sending a command to the Arduino.
There is also code that prevents sending commands our the serial port
if not running on a Mark 1. In certain situations, the message
indicating that the Mark 1 Arduino was found was posted to the
messagebus before it was fully open. When this was missed, the system
didn't think it was on a Mark 1 and the command to stop the eyes from
rolling (and for further interactions with the Mark 1 hardware) were
not sent.
The Mark 1 Arduino detection is now triggered when the messagebus
'open' notification is generated rather than when the object is
constructed.
==== Fixed Issues ====
#967 - Eyes never stop spinning on startup (Mark 1)
==== Fixed Issues ====
One exemple is reloading pairing skill after skill update (30-60 seconds)
results in a new pairing code being generated.
==== Tech Notes ====
Now compare individual skill modification dates and not a global last
modified skill.
Indentation added in a recent PR (#1152) introduced a shell script
syntax error on a long line with continuations. Spaces are not
allowed before the subsequent line's double-quotes.

This fixes at least a potential issue with the Mark 1 boot sequence.
The system posts a "system.version" message then registers a
listener for the response. There is a chance that the response
sneaks in before the handler is registered. This just reorders the
sequence of that code.

ISSUE #967 - Eyes never stop spinning on startup (Mark 1)
==== Tech Notes ====
The msm lock wasn't checked before reloading skills allowing skills to be loaded before msm wasn't finished installing requirements.
A check was added to ensure this along with a separate lock enforcing the handling of block_msm and release_msm in the correct order. If not the update procedure could cause a deadlock.
