Package: qt4-demos Version: 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Open a qt4 QML demo in QT creator (notably the Dial Control but happens with other examples too) fails with tne message: Could not copy file "/usr/share/qt4/doc/html/helper/qmlapplicationviewer" to "/home/user/dialcontrol/qmlapplicationviewer" The real location of the requested directory and files is: /usr/lib/qt4/demos/helper/qmlappicationviewer Clearly the above location must be changed. Copying the directory with to: /home/user/dialcontrol/ Solves the main problem. But the example won't run either unless you change in main.cpp the line: viewer.setMainQmlFile(QLatin1String("/qml/dialcontrol/dialcontrol.qml")); to: viewer.setMainQmlFile(QLatin1String("/dialcontrol/qml/dialcontrol/dialcontrol.qml")); Very frustrating for someone who is trying to learn qt. I have no idea if the same happens with qt5-demos *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages qt4-demos depends on: ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u1 ii libgcc1 1:6.3.0-18 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 13.0.6-1+b2 ii libphonon4 4:4.9.0-4 ii libqt4-declarative 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-designer 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-help 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-network 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-opengl 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-script 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-scripttools 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-sql 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-svg 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-test 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-xml 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-xmlpatterns 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqtcore4 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqtdbus4 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqtgui4 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libstdc++6 6.3.0-18 Versions of packages qt4-demos recommends: ii libqt4-declarative-gestures 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii libqt4-declarative-particles 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii qt4-dev-tools 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 ii qt4-doc 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 Versions of packages qt4-demos suggests: ii qt4-qmlviewer 4:4.8.7+dfsg-11 -- no debconf information
