Hi!
I can see where Adrien Matthieu is coming from. Installation on linux is
not yet as straightforward as other platforms (Windows, Mac and Android).
I want to install the program in my home directory so that is not a
problem but getting Jqt.sh to run required installing
libqt5webenginewidgets5, libqt5multimediawidgets5 and libqt5websockets5
on Ubuntu 22.04 (LTS).
I believe the relevant code would be:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libqt5webenginewidgets5 libqt5multimediawidgets5
libqt5websockets5
but I preferred to use Synaptic, so this will need checking! Would it be
worth adding this or something similar to the updatejqt.sh script?
I considered modifying the install-usr.sh script by replacing /usr with
/home/mark but when using a local folder, it was not clear how the items
copied into the /etc folder would be used so I decided against it,
without further advice/research.
Could this script be adapted so that one can specify the prefix of the
install location?
One final matter, when running jqt.sh, the following warning was reported:
Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.
Since this is warning, it's not an issue and no-doubt X users would want
the old code but would it be worth making the relevant call sensitive to
its environment?
Many thanks
Mark
