Closed Shov96 closed 4 years ago
Hello, as stated in the Readme, the intructions are only operational for Ubuntu 19.04 and above. Glad you found a workaround!
Is there any way to make it operational in older distros? Will the AppImage also not run on my current system?
Hmm, at least it's only a name change to the API that's preventing this from building. I'll do some testing in the coming days on older distros and see what I can do.
@wgpierce If you want to make a valid appimage for 18.04, you have to use @Shov96 's workaround on Ubuntu 18.04, and compile it there. It would work because 18.04's glib is ancient as fuck so it causes problems, all rolling release distros have an updated version.
Sorry for the delay. I've created an appimage for 18.04 in releases with the hacks needed for that platform.
Its working, but just to be thorough -
Thanks a lot for your awesome work! :smile:
Seems to work fine for me on fully updated Ubuntu 18.04. All the icons are being downloaded asynchronously, so it may take a little while for all of them to show up.
Unfortunately issues specific to 18.04 and especially older distros won't get much attention, but if there are other issues with the SamRewritten itself, feel free to file more issues with logs!
If you're still on Ubuntu 18.04, the latest master includes commits 082ad7f1182e9a8e3ae9d90d82267b6f33f9b658 and 7358596158221af89b19f89f25d4ee8b4e8ecfb1 to fix these problems and enable building.
I am using 64-bit Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS (GNOME 3.28.2). I have cloned the repository and am running
make
in terminal.This is what comes up. Before this, I encountered another error:
This I solved with the help of this StackOverflow thread.
PS: I tried using the AppImage provided in Releases but for some reason it doesn't do anything.
