Re: Getting QT apps running.

Changing qt5conf to desktop/qt5 and qt5-launch to desktop-launch does not help in ipe's case it seems, even though it gets rid of a few warnings. The problem is with the IPE_PREFIX that ipe requires to be set, and I'm also unable to find a combination that would allow ipe to build (../../../instal

Re: Getting QT apps running.

So I decided to hack the source of the ipe package in order to get rid of the path issue possibly causing other problems. So the updated snapcraft.yaml pulls in "my version" that does not need a IPEPREFIX any more. https://github.com/dietmarw/snaps/blob/master/ipe/snapcraft.yaml But as Timo, I f

Seting the rests of the paths helped. I now have icons. The menu is still missing which reminded me that there currently is an issue with appmenu-qt5 which when naively compiled causes some keyboard shortcuts not to work. https://github.com/otfried/ipe-wiki/wiki/FAQ#ipe-doesnt-work-correctly-on-ubu

Re: Getting QT apps running.

Thanks for the pointer. Reading through the documentation of desktop-helper again I noticed that I might actually try the x11 plug instead of unity7 since it is the appmenu that causes problems in the first place. But now ipe would not launch at all. Also I don't get any error messages (apart from

Having manually replaced the location in /usr/bin/update-texmf did not change anything. So it is most likely embedded in the compiled binary of pdflatex. :-( On 29 July 2016 at 17:47, Dietmar Winkler wrote: > Hi, > > On 29 July 2016 at 17:32, Oliver Grawert wrote: >> you could just replace the
