deb file is missing a dependency

Open edgarogh opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Describe the Bug

The deb file seems to not declare the xcb-cursor0 or libxcb-cursor0 dependency (on Linux Mint 21.3, only the latter — libxcb-cursor0 — is in the apt repository). Installing it manually fixes the issue, but ideally, a .deb file should explicitly declare dependencies, that's the whole point.

To Reproduce

Start VPKEdit 4.2.0 after installing it from the deb file on the same system as me. It fails to launch with the following message:

❯ vpkedit 
qt.qpa.plugin: From 6.5.0, xcb-cursor0 or libxcb-cursor0 is needed to load the Qt xcb platform plugin.
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: vkkhrdisplay, minimalegl, wayland-egl, vnc, eglfs, minimal, xcb, linuxfb, offscreen, wayland.
