Can install on Ubuntu 14.10

[changeableface]

Can't install correctly on 14.10 - worked fine when on 14.04 LTS - updated and this is the only program that broke :(

Looks like it wants libquazip0 which has been upgrade as part of something else.

I managed to install it using this but then I ran into the issue described here #106

There's now a 14.10 package in the repo. Haven't tested it yet, but it should work.

[changeableface]

Hi,

Downloaded, still says;

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies. screencloud : Depends: libquazip0 but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

:(

[boobaa]

Manually installing libquazip0 removes libquazip1 and marble-plugins (at least for me). After this, I can install screencloud (along with sni-qt which is a dependency of it). However, it would be even better if screencloud had been compiled against the latest stable libraries (libquazip1 this time).

[deanpcmad]

I'm having the same issue with Ubuntu 14.10 :(

[changeableface]

FYI - Upgraded to 15.04 - didn't expect this to fix anything, and it hasn't, still same issue.

[changeableface]

Found a work around for anyone interested;

$ wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/olav-st/xUbuntu_14.04/amd64/screencloud_1.2.0-1_amd64.deb $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libquazip.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libquazip.so.0 $ sudo dpkg -i –force-depends screencloud_1.2.0-1_amd64.deb $ sudo apt-get install -f

Cobbled together from this ticket; https://github.com/olav-st/screencloud/issues/144

Works fine for me now, but it's obviously not idea.

[jakubhomoly]

Thanks @changeableface :)

[anjan011]

It would be nice, if screencloud can update their package with this simple workaround as changeableface mentioned. I m just glad it works with a simple fix like that.

Tried installing on Ubuntu 14.04.5 latest version of screencloud 1.3 using instructions from the site. Installation (via apt-get install screencloud) completed successfully but upon running the app getting this error:

user@host:~$ screencloud-1.3.0
screencloud-1.3.0: error while loading shared libraries: libquazip.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The listing of my libquazes is:

user@host:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$ ls -l libquaz*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     18 Feb 12  2014 libquazip.so.0 -> libquazip.so.0.6.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     18 Feb 12  2014 libquazip.so.0.6 -> libquazip.so.0.6.2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 179560 Feb 12  2014 libquazip.so.0.6.2

@changeableface suggests symlinking libquazip.so.1.0.0 -> libquazip.so.0 , but in my case:

• libquazip.so.0 already exists
• libquazip.so.1.0.0 does not exist

any ideas?

[samlev]

I had the (admittedly bad) idea of ln -s libquazip.so.0.6.2 libquazip.so.1, which allowed screencloud to boot, but everything was broken (bunch of error pop-ups, none of my connectors work, and the config for them won't open), so... probably not the best idea.

[dimkir]

Ok, I managed to find solution for my case of Ubuntu 14.04.05 and believe it should work for other systems with similar symptoms.

TL;DR

# worked for me for Ubuntu 14.04.05 64bit (amd64)
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/233666756/libquazip1_0.7.1-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libquazip1_0.7.1-1_amd64.deb
screencloud 

How to fix it step by step

Seems like this libquazip is some kind of Qt wrapper around another zipping library and it should be part of ubuntu and debian. If you look how this package is listed under ubuntu packages, you can see that the latest version of the library (bundled with Xenial Xerus Ubuntu 16.04) is actually not 1.0 but rather 0.7.1 so seems like when symlinking to libquazip.so.1 - the number 1 is not actually version, but some other ubuntu internal thingy. Now we know that screencloud wants the latest version 0.7.1 .

Let's download it and install it on my Ubuntu 14.04.05 64x machine.

1. Go to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libquazip and choose /Xenial Xerus/
2. On your package page https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/amd64/libquazip1/0.7.1-1 see //Builds// section and choose amd64 package (my Ubuntu is 64bit if you're on different architecture you have to choose yours)
3. On the [Builds] page choose and download appropriate binary. I chose libquazip1 0.7.1-1 (and I have no idea what's the difference vs libquazip5 0.7.1-1).
4. On the download page choose to download libquazip1_0.7.1-1_amd64.deb
5. As you finished downloading libquazip1_0.7.1-1_amd64.deb, install it on your system using

sudo dpkg -i libquazip1_0.7.1-1_amd64.deb

This installation will automatically uninstall your older libquazip.so.0.6.2 (so probably wise to back it up before) and automatically install the new version and automatically create libquazip.so.1.0.0 required by screencloud.

Hi dimkir,

Thanks for the in depth fix you've posted. Since I originally posted this message I've swapped OS to OSX so I'm not longer suffering the pain, but no doubt this will help others.

I was getting the same error:

So I tried this fix, but I'm unable to get imgur working. I was getting this error:
