Apparently the latest #mobian nightlies are missing an onscreen-keyboard. Last good known nightly is 27-Jan-2021. Will post more as I learn about it.

Re the "missing onscreen keyboard"
It turns out that the keyboard was included but phosh always thought it was docked to a phsyical keyboard, hiding the onscreen one. Nightlies should be safe to use again.

@mobian can you link to the patch you used to fix that? Phosh doesn't detect physical keyboards on it's own (source.puri.sm/Librem5/phoc/-/) so i don't think that's the root cause.

@agx our BDFL said "squeekboard is there and works fine, but a package is missing, causing phosh to believe it's running on a laptop, and therefore starts in docked mode". So no patches needed, phosh is not guilty!

@spaetz Thanks - if we're missing a dependency or something let me know!

@agx @spaetz nah, it was the pinephone-tweaks package that somehow got lost and needed to get added back.
