How to install/run goxel-0.12.0-linux on Ubuntu?

[cedarbob]

Not sure what to do with the goxel-0.12.0-linux file (downloaded from the Goxel website) to get an executable on Ubuntu 20. Is it a flatpack? The last snap on snapcraft site is 0.8.1. Any chance you can create a snap for the latest version?

Thanks.

Not sure what to do with the goxel-0.12.0-linux file

The goxel-0.12.0-linux file is a plain binary executable. You can start it by double-clicking it, or <right-click> the Run.

If it doesn't start you might be missing execute permissions, or be missing some dependencies. First make sure it's executable by running chmod +x ./goxel-0.12.0-linux, then start it with ./goxel-0.12.0-linux. If you are missing any dependencies, it'll tell you.

I had to sudo apt install libglfw3 before it would start.

[cedarbob]

Thanks. First error message said I was missing only libglfw3 as well. But after installing that, when I tried to run it I got a boatload of other missing dependencies. Not sure if it is worth the heartburn to try to install the whole dependency tree. I might just see what the 0.8.1 snap looks like for now.

[guillaumechereau]

I am not in control of the snap of goxel, you can try to contact the maintainer directly, maybe he can update the package.

currently I just directly copy the compiled file from my PC to GitHub, not ideal I agree, but the advantage is that the file is really small. I could probably static link libglfw3 for now, but maybe doing an AppImage is a better solution, I don't know anything about that though.

it's quite easy if you already follow the default linux directory structure.

you might also need the metainfo file like this one https://github.com/vengi-voxel/vengi/blob/master/contrib/installer/linux/io.github.vengi-voxel.vengi.voxedit.metainfo.xml

[guillaumechereau]

I see, and linuxdeploy automatically finds the dependencies and bundle them in the AppImage?

[mgerhardy]

yes - as far as I know ;)

[guillaumechereau]

OK, I added the github action (thanks to @mgerhardy!).

[cedarbob]

So is there a linux AppImage somewhere now? The executable download links don't appear to have changed.

[guillaumechereau]

I haven't put it in the release yet. You can check the artifact generated at each commit though, here is the last one:

I got complaints trying to run the AppImage as an executable similar to those I got trying to run the ordinary Linux executable:

[mgerhardy]

It’s build with Ubuntu latest - but you are trying to run it with Ubuntu 20.xx. Maybe the github action should not use Ubuntu latest to build the binaries for older glibc versions

[guillaumechereau]

I switched to ubuntu 2020.04, @cedarbob can you try this build: https://github.com/guillaumechereau/goxel/actions/runs/7257845658

[cedarbob]

Now I've got a dumb question. How do I locate the new linux executable after following the above link? The link takes me to the job page, but it is not obvious where the executables are.

[guillaumechereau]

a the bottom of the page, there are the 'artifacts', with the appimage (inside a zip file). If you confirm that this one works, then I will manually upload the AppImage instead of the binary in the release files.

[cedarbob]

Sorry, I didn't notice the stuff off the bottom of my screen. So I downloaded the AppImage, extracted the content and made it executable. But I got the same sorts of errors as before:

OK an other try here: https://github.com/guillaumechereau/goxel/actions/runs/7319304956

@cedarbob do you mind trying this new AppImage?

[cedarbob]

This one worked! Thanks for getting this squared away.
