JollaC root alien dalvik

I wanted to ask if someone has succeded rooting his Alien Dalvik on Jolla C yet

So far, the method used on Jolla Phone will not work on Jolla C

I was told we're having Android 4.4 as Alien Dalvik, thus "Android 4.4 API lvl 19 Kitkat" as a base to work off. Checking the provided insights from https://su.chainfire.eu/ I tried to look up if Alien Dalvik on Jolla C makes use of SELinux in any form - however I'm not sure yet.

Putting the files in the right place might not be enough this time if we have to handle policies and more.

I fear getting root to work on Alien Dalvik this time might be a long and painful procedure.

Hope someone comes around the corner with a brilliant idea that just works out of the box ;)
