Upgrading to 2.1.0 on Pop_OS
Back in January I got Sigil built on my Pop_OS box (With a lot of help--thanks again Kevin) and it has worked flawlessly, so I thought building the upgrade would be no problem. Silly me!
I went through the entire list of dependencies and checked they were there. All were at the latest level except I got these errors on the compat-dev ones (had a problem here back in January as I recall): Spoiler:
But since the prior build worked, I tried cmake anyway, and got the following errors: Spoiler:
I'll also attach the cmake logs. Any help would be wonderful! TIA Chris |

Look for a qt6 QtSvg package in your repo.
And a qt6 5compat package. They (or their headers) are missing. Both are part of official Qt6. I do not know Pop_OS well enough to know your package manager naming schemes. Perhaps DiapDealer (who helped you before - I was just assisting) can point you in the right direction. Last edited by KevinH; 04-02-2024 at 11:48 AM. |

Well that was too easy...I tried searching the Synaptic package manager for anything "qtsvg" and found libqt6svgwidgets6 was not installed. So I installed it, tried again, and now I'm up and running on 2.1.0!
Sorry to have posted all those errors so quickly... Now to explore the new version. Edit: you are fast, messages crossed in the vapor...Thanks again. |

Switching to the flatpak from Flathub is an option to consider. I run Sigil and Calibre this way on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, they work fine though there is one small hoop to jump through to use ebook-convert from the shell.

And the flatpak has issues with using "Open With" to open specific files in other editors, and some problems running some standard plugins that use the clipboard tools, and issues with any plugins that launch or use executables or shared libraries, etc...
But not everyone uses that functionality ... Building your own (if you are able) is still always the best bet. Last edited by KevinH; 04-02-2024 at 02:31 PM. |

I run OpenSuse Tumbleweed in a VM. Running anything from a flatpak sandbox that needs to interact with other programs turned into a total PITA. I originally tried calibre from a flatpak and after a couple of days, I switched to using the install command line version. Sigil was not as bad in terms of broken functionality but I ended up building my own. Takes me back to the "good old days" of running Linux from floppies.

Code:
flatpak --command="bash" run com.calibre_ebook.calibre Still a lot better than Snap packages. Those are the worst. |
