pirateplayer fail finding "QtDesktop"

Open Morganlej opened this issue 11 years ago • 4 comments

I am running Mageia 64 bit. This summer i could run pirateplayer on a local compile of Qt Desktop Components / Qt Quick Controls

Now in Mageia 4, Qt Quick Controls is already packaged, but it does not help to install it; i still get:

$ pirateplayer file:///home/sparas/.local/share/data/pirateplay/pirateplayer/gui/main.qml:2:1: module "QtDesktop" is not installed import QtDesktop 0.1

(also tried installing the whole qt-designer with dependencies, no difference) Unfortunately i fail to compile Qt Quick Controls locally, but it should not matter anyway...

Maybe pirateplayer is looking at another place, or for another part or name than is installed on Mageia?

Use QT4 and install Qt Desktop Components in QT shell.

I do not know about QT shell, but got pirateplayer working: I uninstalled all qt5 i installed above (did not need it for anything), went to https://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qtquickcontrols, clicked branch and selected old/qt4, downloaded, packed up, and in that folder:

qmake make su make install exit pirateplayer

-And pirateplayer works :)

Oh, did not mean to close the issue. I got pirateplayer working, but the question i really wanted to state is if it is some problem with the mageia packaged qtquickcontrols i should file a bug at, or if it is a problem with pirateplayer, or something else, or i just misunderstood.
