Qt app with no-system-libraries and without

sektorct · October 27, 2018, 3:22pm

I decided to try to build application from the Qt libraries in the system.

name: managetime
version: "0.1.0"
summary: timer
description: |
    Application for time management
confinement: strict
architectures: [amd64]
grade: stable

apps:
    managetime:
        command: desktop-launch ${SNAP}/bin/projecttimer
        plugs: [home, unity7, x11, opengl, pulseaudio, wayland, network, desktop, desktop-legacy]
        environment:
            DISABLE_WAYLAND: 1
parts:
    managetime:
        plugin: cmake
        configflags:
        - -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
        - -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
        build-packages:
            - qttools5-dev
            - build-essential
            - qtdeclarative5-dev
            - libqt5svg5-dev
            - qttools5-dev-tools
            - libqt5xmlpatterns5-dev
            - libgles2-mesa-dev
            - qtquickcontrols2-5-dev
        stage-packages:
            - libqt5widgets5
            - libqt5qml5
            - libqt5quick5
            - libqt5quickwidgets5
            - libqt5quickcontrols2-5
            - qml-module-qtquick-controls2
            - qtwayland5
            - libgl1-mesa-dev
            - libgl1-mesa-dri
            - libgl1-mesa-glx
            - libxkbcommon0
        stage:
            - -usr/share/pkgconfig
        after: [desktop-qt5]

And it seems like the application is compiled, but I see an error.
I can not understand what she points

And I wonder what if I use the qmake, I see another type of error.

Have you tried using snapcraft cleanbuild? This will build your code in a container with the correct library versions, which should avoid the “linker version” errors you mentioned.

sektorct · October 30, 2018, 12:21pm

Yes, I tried to pack this way. I see very strange errors: At the beginning of the assembly it cursed that he could not find such packages: - qtquickcontrols2-5-dev - libqt5quickcontrols2-5 - qml-module-qtquick-controls2

Next error

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:15 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindQt5QuickControls2.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this
  project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "Qt5QuickControls2", but CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5QuickControls2"
  with any of the following names:

    Qt5QuickControls2Config.cmake
    qt5quickcontrols2-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "Qt5QuickControls2" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or
  set "Qt5QuickControls2_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above
  files.  If "Qt5QuickControls2" provides a separate development package or
  SDK, be sure it has been installed.

Error: not found

Why when I just want to make a package through cmake, then everything is fine, all the packages are seen, the application is being build, and then through snapcraft it cannot see something?

jamesh · October 31, 2018, 1:51am

When you run snapcraft cleanbuild, your snap is built in a minimal container. So if your project doesn’t declare its dependencies, you can get problems like this.

The desktop-qt5 makes sure enough is installed for a Qt5GUI program, but doesn’t ensure the full QML stack is available. So you’ll probably need to manually pull in a few extra packages via build-packages and stage-packages.

My guess is that you’d want:

build-packages:
 - qtdeclarative5-dev
 - qtquickcontrols2-5-dev
stage-packages:
 - libqt5quickcontrols2-5
 - qml-module-qtquick-controls2

I have already shown how the snapcraft.yaml file looks. If I try to build a package like this, I get a strange error:

Please ensure the package is in the Ubuntu Packages Search and is in the Ubuntu release you’re targeting.

sektorct · October 31, 2018, 7:09pm

Yes, this file is exists in the repository Ubuntu 18.04. I use KDE Neon 5.14, and it is also exists too.

lucyllewy · November 2, 2018, 2:07pm

you need to use package names that exist in Ubuntu 16.04.

sektorct · November 2, 2018, 2:33pm

Ubuntu 16.04 don’t have package qtquickcontrols2-5-dev, only qtquick1-5-dev But I use in my app quickcontrols2. I need this particular package. Ubuntu 16.04 useless to me.

popey · November 2, 2018, 3:18pm

I have seen some people have success by building on KDE Neon 16.04 which has newer Qt libraries from the KDE Neon repositories. Perhaps you could try that.

sektorct · November 2, 2018, 3:28pm

You understand what I need to do to do this?) I need to find the KDE Neon iso before switching to 18.04 and install another system). This is something very stupid.

There are 2 solutions to the problem, 1: to understand why at 18.04 I can not build a snap with the necessary packages that are present in the system. 2: build the application separately and collect package with the necessary dependencies. In the second case, I did almost everything, but there is some kind of dependence that I could not solve. I wrote about this a little higher in history.

popey · November 2, 2018, 3:30pm

It was merely one option I offered.

You can actually build on 18.04 too. Using snapcraft 3.0 from the candidate channel, and specifying base: core18 in your snapcraft.yaml

sektorct · November 2, 2018, 3:34pm

Thanks for the option. I will try, suddenly it will help solve the problem. Although I prefer the second version of the package build solution that I described)

sektorct · November 2, 2018, 10:49pm

When I tried to assemble a package, some new errors appeared. This is due to some sort of change?

snapcraft 
Launching a VM.

lucyllewy · November 4, 2018, 12:24am

Multipass is a separate project which Snapcraft 3.0 uses when there is a base keyword specified in the snapcraft.yaml. You can get Multipass as a snap from the beta channel.

sektorct · November 4, 2018, 2:25pm

Ok, I installed this multipass. But it did not help me. The error is the same.

snapcraft cleanbuild

You have an outdated distribution of Snapcraft. Please ensure you have enable the *-updates pocket of the Ubuntu software sources, refresh the APT local package cache and install all system updates.

sektorct · November 4, 2018, 3:13pm

I noticed that if specified in snapcraft.yaml base: core18 then this error appears.
