Can't build on ubuntu 20.04: Project ERROR: cld2 development package not found

[Rom888]

Ubuntu 20.04, try to build: ''' cd src && qmake UltraStar-Creator.pro && make Info: creating stash file /home/rom/Downloads/UltraStar-Creator/src/.qmake.stash Project ERROR: cld2 development package not found '''

[bohning]

Any help to fix this is appreciated =)

Try installing libcld2-dev?

I had the same issue a couple of weeks ago on arch but I forgot how I fixed it there

It’s not enough, unfortunately. The AppImage build on AppVeyor fails for the same reason, although libcld2-dev is installed. I assume it is not found correctly (by pkgconfig).

This works for taglib, but not for cld2:

Thanks for reply. Tried it now, but unfortunately with no success.

[bohning]

Continuous integration for Linux (Ubuntu 16.04) has just been fixed, have a look at appveyor.yml all the way at the bottom to see which steps are required. For qt515base on 20.04, you might need to run sudo add-apt-repository ppa:beineri/opt-qt-5.15.2-focal sudo apt-get update before the sudo apt install.

[bohning]

Which version of Qt are you using? You presumably need 5.15.2, where SkipEmptyParts moved from QString to Qt namespace.

[Rom888]

@bohning I don't use Qt, but just followed instructions: https://github.com/UltraStar-Deluxe/UltraStar-Creator#compiling-on-linux and added all recommended in this topic:

sudo apt install libcld2-dev
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:beineri/opt-qt-5.15.2-focal
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install qt515base

~/Downloads/UltraStar-Creator/src$ qmake --version

Ok, I will try this: https://wiki.qt.io/Install_Qt_5_on_Ubuntu

[Rom888]

I installed Qt 5.15.2 using this instructions: https://wiki.qt.io/Install_Qt_5_on_Ubuntu and removed old versions:

sudo apt remove qt5-default qttools5-dev-tools qtbase5-dev-tools qt5-qmake

and no success:

~/Downloads/UltraStar-Creator/src$ qmake UltraStar-Creator.pro && make
Could not find qmake spec 'linux-g++'.
Error processing project file: UltraStar-Creator.pro

[bohning]

Hmm, don’t know how to help you with the qmake spec file. Do you need to compile yourself or can you also use the AppImage from CI?

[Rom888]

Do you need to compile yourself or can you also use the AppImage from CI?

No, I don't need to compile it myself. I just want to use this tool, but at the moment I don't see any way how to run it on my Ubuntu 20.04 desktop.

It would be helpful to see any instructions how to run AppImage from CI. I have Docker on my desktop. Do I need export display or any other steps? I think it would be useful to other people too.

[bohning]

I have never used AppImages (I am not on Linux), but from what I understood, you simply download the AppImage, make it executable and execute it.

Maybe this helps: https://itsfoss.com/use-appimage-linux/

[Rom888]

@bohning , yes, I can run UltraStar-Creator using AppImage! Thanks for support!

Do you think we should add some instructions to README? Something like this:

download .appimage file from here: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/bohning/ultrastar-creator/build/job/fahaofw44aapdiin/artifacts select: Jobs- Image: Ubuntu1604...- Artifacts- bin\release\UltraStar-Creator-3ed8133-x86_64.AppImage

# in terminal:
cd ~/Downloads
fn=UltraStar-Creator-3ed8133-x86_64.AppImage
chmod u+x ${fn}
# run it
./${fn}

[AlexLukasT]

I was able to compile it with Qt 5.12.8 under Ubuntu 20.04 following the official build instructions and making a few changes.
