Command Output: Error on Kubuntu 16.04 #68

Closed lipido closed 7 years ago

lipido commented 7 years ago

By downloading the applet via the "Get new widgets", I cannot launch it. The following error appears: "Error loading QML file: file:///home/lipido/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/com.github.zren.commandoutput/contents/ui/main.qml:2:1: module "QtQuick.Layouts" version 1.3 is not installed"

If I touch the main.qml and change 1.3 to 1.2 or 1.1, the error disappears, but the widget does not show anything (however, I can enter the options).

What version of Qt do you have? Are you using the Kubuntu Backports or are you still using the default Plasma 5.5 desktop? App Launcher > Info Center should display it.

lipido commented 7 years ago

I'm using the default: KDE Plasma Version: 5.5.5 Qt Version: 5.5.1

I've just seen that backports are dangerous ("which are not yet tested enough to go to Ubuntu Backports"). I use kdepim with thousands of mails in my maildir, so I do not want to upgrade right now. I was using this applet in Kubuntu 14.04 and I have upgraded to Kubuntu 16.04. All is working properly, but this applet does not.

Yeah dont install the backports to try and fix it, i just need to know the test environment to reproduce the bug. Though you should consider kde neon which is basically 16.04 but with updated plasma and qt, though it gets its own bugs from time to time so meh.

Ill download the kubuntu iso and try it in a vm. Also this isnt the same widget kde 4 had... Ill check that out too.

Ok, Thank you. During these days I found argos (gnome) and bitbar (osx) which is an amazing idea, so I have implemented this new plasmoid which now works for me in this version: https://github.com/lipido/kargos

Awesome, nice to see someone expanding on this widget. Sorry I forgot to look into this faster.

After testing with the kubuntu 16.04 iso, it seems it only supports QtQuick.Layouts 1.2 or lower. You need to restart plasmashell with killall plasmashell; kstart5 plasmashell for changes to take effect.
