[Touch-packages] [Bug 1251178] Re: qdbus and qdbusviewer crash with "No such file or directory"
And here we go again... - also with qdbusviewer, and also on 18.04 Previous workaround stopped working. After some digging it looks that qtchooser is looking into wrong Qt dir (qt4 instead of qt5) Some other people reported that apt install qt5-default may help - but I did not check this What worked was editing /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt-default/qtchooser/default.conf and adding first line so it looks like this: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt-default/qtchooser/default.conf /usr/lib/qt5/bin /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu EOF -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qt4-x11 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1251178 Title: qdbus and qdbusviewer crash with "No such file or directory" Status in qt4-x11 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in qtchooser package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Release: Ubuntu 13.10 (32-bit) Package versions: qtdbus 4:4.8.4+dfsg-0ubuntu18 qtchooser 26-3ubuntu2 Expected behavior: The `qdbus` program runs, as does the related program `qdbusviewer`.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1251178] Re: qdbus and qdbusviewer crash with "No such file or directory"
Because this is top post being shown in Google search for problems with qdbusviewer and they persist also on 18.04 here is the solution: 1. Find an error message. In my case (even after installing default): qdbusviewer: could not exec '/usr/lib/qt5/bin/qdbusviewer': No such file or directory 2. Find in which package is file being reported as missing: $ apt-file search /usr/lib/qt5/bin/qdbusviewer qttools5-dev-tools: /usr/lib/qt5/bin/qdbusviewer 3. Install found package: $ sudo apt install qttools5-dev-tools Voila! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qt4-x11 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1251178 Title: qdbus and qdbusviewer crash with "No such file or directory" Status in qt4-x11 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in qtchooser package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Release: Ubuntu 13.10 (32-bit) Package versions: qtdbus 4:4.8.4+dfsg-0ubuntu18 qtchooser 26-3ubuntu2 Expected behavior: The `qdbus` program runs, as does the related program `qdbusviewer`.
