> Maybe this package could be added as a dependency in newer releases? We would like to make Qt 5 default, but unfortunately this will break lots of legacy Qt 4 code. So we cannot do that soon, maybe in future...
> There is also perhaps an upstream bug where qtchooser could try the "other" qt version if one fails. (I had installed qdbus5, and qtchooser was trying qdbus4, which was not installed or wanted.) The fallback mechanism exists (in qtchooser 52-gae5eeef and newer versions), but only for some tools: <https://code.qt.io/cgit/qtsdk/qtchooser.git/tree/src/qtchooser/main.cpp#n528>. qdbus is one of them, so if you have qdbus-qt5 installed, qtchooser will use it even if you have no qt5-default package installed. If that is not the case, please let us know your qtchooser version and the console output. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qt4-x11 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1251178 Title: qdbus and qdbusviewer crash with "No such file or directory" Status in qt4-x11 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in qtchooser package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Release: Ubuntu 13.10 (32-bit) Package versions: qtdbus 4:4.8.4+dfsg-0ubuntu18 qtchooser 26-3ubuntu2 Expected behavior: The `qdbus` program runs, as does the related program `qdbusviewer`. Actual behavior: If I run the `qdbus` program, it always crashes: user@host:~$ qdbus --help qdbus: could not exec '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qdbus': No such file or directory The `qdbus` executable is actually: user@host:~$ ls --full-time $(which qdbus) lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2013-08-07 14:48:40.000000000 +0000 /usr/bin/qdbus -> qtchooser Note that `/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qdbus` exists and seems to work if I invoke it directly. There's a `qdbus-qt5` package in the universe repository. It was not pulled in as a dependency, but manually installing it fixes the issue. Therefore it's either a packaging error or a bug in qtchooser. A similar thing happens if I run `qdbusviewer`: user@host:~$ qdbusviewer qdbusviewer: could not exec '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qdbusviewer': No such file or directory except that installing `qdbus-qt5` doesn't fix the issue.
