Namespace Gdk not available in snap #18

Open strycore opened 5 years ago

strycore commented 5 years ago

Tried to build a snap for lutris and currently it's stuck here when trying to run the program from snap:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/snap/lutris/x2/bin/lutris", line 31, in <module>
    from lutris.gui.application import Application
  File "/snap/lutris/x2/lib/python3.6/site-packages/lutris/gui/application.py", line 28, in <module>
    gi.require_version("Gdk", "3.0")
  File "/snap/lutris/x2/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 127, in require_version
    raise ValueError('Namespace %s not available' % namespace)
ValueError: Namespace Gdk not available

Probably just explicitly add gir1.2-gdk-3.0 (or whatever) to the deb dependencies?

(Assuming you are using the deb source)

strycore commented 5 years ago

Yes, it's using a Ubuntu 18.04 base. Problem is that there is no such package, the closest there is, relative to Gdk is gir1.2-gdkpixbuf-2.0

TingPing commented 5 years ago

Ah the gtk package does have gdk in it.

Probably set GI_TYPELIB_DIR=$SNAP/the/path/to/it

In my experience you have to set plenty of env vars (and patch libs without env vars) to be usable in Snap.

Hi @popey,

If you have a quick moment could you help @strycore with the Lutris snap. He's running into some issues with the build.

Oh the internet knows.. I just started trying to build a Lutris snap and landed here while getting the same error.
