Hi everyone,
After I unsuccessfully tried several solutions for my KStars packaging issue, I will ask the KDE-Windows team for a piece of advice, maybe someone faced this situation before. The actual problem is that I cannot add the required dependencies to my KStars installer. The “kstars.exe” executable from inside KDEROOT/bin runs perfectly so this cause can be excluded since the beginning. The next thing I investigated was the “kstars.py” file used by emerge tool for packaging. I started with KDevelop example, as it already has such an installer based on NSIS software: https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=emerge.git&a=blob&h=ab8cd8e7fc35a52a8e463cac92d626b7013b7260&f=portage%2Fextragear%2Fkdevelop%2Fkdevelop.py&o=plain I took every line, one by one, but starting with this line: os.mkdir(os.path.join(archiveDir, "etc", "dbus-1", "session.d")) I get the following error message: [WinError 3] The system cannot find the path specified: 'C:\\K\\build\\kde\\ksta rs\\archive\\etc\\dbus-1\\session.d' File "C:\K\emerge\bin\emerge.py", line 475, in <module> success = main() File "C:\K\emerge\bin\emerge.py", line 454, in main if not handleSinglePackage( packageName, action, tempArgs ): File "C:\K\emerge\bin\emerge.py", line 219, in handleSinglePackage if not handlePackage( info.category, info.package, action, args.doContinue, args.update_fast ): File "C:\K\emerge\bin\emerge.py", line 88, in handlePackage success = doExec( package, buildAction, continueFlag ) File "C:\K\emerge\bin\utils.py", line 562, in inner return fn(*args, **argv) File "C:\K\emerge\bin\emerge.py", line 46, in doExec ret = package.execute( action ) File "C:\K\emerge\bin\Package\PackageBase.py", line 214, in execute return self.runAction(command) File "C:\K\emerge\bin\Package\PackageBase.py", line 241, in runAction ok = getattr(self, functions[command])() File "C:\K\emerge\portage\kde\applications\kstars\kstars.py", line 54, in crea tePackage return NullsoftInstallerPackager.createPackage(self) File "C:\K\emerge\bin\Packager\NullsoftInstallerPackager.py", line 195, in cre atePackage self.preArchive() File "C:\K\emerge\portage\kde\applications\kstars\kstars.py", line 59, in preA rchive os.mkdir(os.path.join(archiveDir, "etc", "dbus-1", "session.d")) C:\K> It actually doesn’t matter which line I try to use: binPath = os.path.join(archiveDir, "bin") OR utils.mergeTree(os.path.join(archiveDir, "plugins"), binPath) I get the same error listed above. I really don’t understand why I get this error. For example, “os.mkdir(os.path.join(archiveDir, "etc", "dbus-1", "session.d"))” command should just create etc/dbus-1/session.d directory. So it should not be related to any dependency or piece of code. Also, I tried to build the folders’ hierarchy manually, but this didn’t help at all. As a final solution, I thought that CMakeLists.txt could actually be involved in this packaging process, so I tried to replicate this in KStars with changes as necessary, then run “emerge kstars” and “emerge --package kstars” again. So I modified KStars’ CMakeLists.txt following KDevelop example, creating additional files as well (i.e. KDevelopConfig.cmake.in <http://kdevelopconfig.cmake.in/> => KStarsConfig.cmake.in <http://kdevelopconfig.cmake.in/>). This proved to be unsuccessfully again. Is the CMakeLists.txt the key-element from this equation? Is it affecting the packaging or not? It is any problem with the path 'C:\\K\\build\\kde\\kstars\\archive\\etc\\dbus-1\\session.d' (i.e. too long or something like this) In conclusion, I would be very grateful if someone would give me some help. I really gave my best in order to solve this issue, but I just cannot figure out why the packaging doesn’t work as expected and furthermore what should I do next. Thanks in advance and every advice is welcomed and appreciated! Best regards, Raphael
