kpat not working - 3.1 LXQT final [solved]

[Ed_P]

LXQT 3.1 64-bit ISO

Built a new kpat bundle with USM on LXQT 3.1 but it's not working. No Games menu, no work in terminal.

Kpat works fine in 3.0.1 RazorQT. I tried adding libdbusmenu-qt-0.9.2-x86_64-2.xzm and qca-2.0.2-x86_64-1.xzm to the 3.0.1 bundle but it didn't work on 3.1 either.

With libdbusmenu-qt-0.9.2-x86_64-2.xzm activated, what is the output of:

[fanthom]

this is 32bit version of libdbusmenu-qt while you need 64bit one.

[Ed_P]

Thanks fanthom.

Any idea where this 32bit version came from? It's not in the kpat bundle USM created and I'm testing on a bare minimum 64bit LXQt system.


-edit-

Ok, I deactivate my Wine mods and try to rebuild the kpat module using USM GUI. It does find additional dependencies including the 64bit libdbusmenu file. But it doesn't create the bundle with the files and doesn't open the file's folder when finished. And yes I'm sure the Merge Modules option was checked.

I manually created the bundle and activated it but kpat is now not found.

Ok. REBOOTED. Reran USM to build the kpat module again. This time I unchecked the Merge Modules option then rechecked it and this time USM merged the modules and the new kpat bundle works. :-) But it's size has gone from 27 MB to 104 MB!! That 64bit libdbusmenu mod is huge.

Disabled the huge (106 MB) kpat module.

Used USM GUI to create a standalone libdbusmenu-qt-0.9.2-x86_64-2.xzm module.

Activated the kpat module from 3.0.1 RazorQt and got a different module missing.

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ kpat
kpat: error while loading shared libraries: libqca.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
guest@porteus:~$ updatedb

Deactivated the 3.0.1 RazorQt kpat module.

Activated the Wine-1.7.26-x64-GeckoMono-1.xzm module.

Used USM GUI to build a new kpat module with dependencies.

Activated the new kpat module but it didn't work. In terminal mode kpat not found.

Used USM GUI to build kpat again.

Activated the new kpat module and it WORKS!!

The kpat bundle did not have kpat in it!! Just it's dependencies.

So I have a kpat .xzm, a kpat bundle .xzm and the libdbusmenu-qt-0.9.2-x86_64-2 .xzm module which total about 30 MB rather than 106 MB.

[francois]

Hum!! This looks so complicated. Do you have a synthesis of the problem ?

[Ed_P]

It gets better. I put the 3 kpat mods into a separate subfolder in my modules folder, /porteus3.1/Modules/kpat/ and when booting I now get 3 messages indicating files are missing. But kpat still works once booted so...
