On Address-book App Iam checking for SNAP env var. Like this: static QString fullPath(const QString &fileName) { QString result; QString appPath = QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath(); if (qEnvironmentVariableIsSet(SNAP_PATH)) { result = qgetenv(SNAP_PATH) + QStringLiteral("/usr/share/address-book-app/") + fileName; } else if (appPath.startsWith(ADDRESS_BOOK_DEV_BINDIR)) { result = QString(ADDRESS_BOOK_APP_DEV_DATADIR) + fileName; } else if (clickModeEnabled()) { result = appPath + QStringLiteral("/share/address-book-app/") + fileName; } else { result = QString(ADDRESS_BOOK_APP_INSTALL_DATADIR) + fileName; } return result; }

Error messages like: "file:///build/messaging-app-gcXPE6/messaging- app-0.1+16.04.20160831/src/qml/messaging-app.qml: File not found" (in my case, the file was in /snap/unity8-session/x24/usr/share /messaging-app/messaging-app.qml) Seems due to code like the following in config.h.in. Probably needs to consider the value of $SNAP or just be a little more forgiving. inline bool isRunningInstalled() { static bool installed = (QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() == QDir(("@CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX@/@CMAKE_INSTALL_BINDIR@")).canonicalPath()); return installed; } inline QString messagingAppDirectory() { if (isRunningInstalled()) { return QString("@CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX@/@MESSAGING_APP_DIR@/"); } else { return QString("@CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR@/src/qml/"); } } inline QString ubuntuPhonePluginPath() { if (isRunningInstalled()) { return QString::null; } else { return QString("@CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR@/"); } } To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/address-book-app/+bug/1629009/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
