Hi umbertofilippo,

The non-standard python packages should be added to the `sysroot.toml` first.

In fact, there should be a `PyQt5` block in your `sysroot.toml`. (The component plugin for PyQt5 will work there). Look at the `Pyqt5.Linux` section and add QtMultimedia to the list of modules (QtWidgets should already be there for instance).

Then reload your .pdt and it should automatically detect QtMultimedia which you can tick.

I have checked your python source code and it does not seem that you need any other dependency so you can ghead with this change and build.

Best regards,

Hello everyone,

I finally had some time to come back to this.

I tried to build my own application (a simple memory game, whose source you can find here: https://github.com/umbe1987/memory).

Host Linux-64 and target Linux-64.

The deployment process seemed smooth, however when I try to launch my application in the build-linux-64 directory, I see this error:

```

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "memory.py", line 6, in <module>
File "bootstrap-3.11.0.py", line 1178, in _find_and_load
File "bootstrap-3.11.0.py", line 1142, in _find_and_load_unlocked
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt5.QtMultimedia'

```

I went back to the .pdt file (`pyqtdeploy-build memory.pdt`), but in the Packages tab I cannot see QtMultimedia listed anywhere.

I could try to add it manually in the memory.pdt file, but I was wondering if I am doing anything wrong.

I am sharing the content of my pdt file below.

Many thanks in advance if you wish to help.

Thanks Charles and KC!

I was finally able to build the demo after installing all the Qt for X11 requirements for Linux!!!

For the records, here is what I had to install on my machine (Linux Mint 21):

Note: there is a package in the list of requirements which has a missing match on my system, I am marking it down below:

sudo apt-get install libxcb-util-dev
sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1-dev libfreetype6-dev libx11-dev libx11-xcb-dev libxext-dev libxfixes-dev libxi-dev libxrender-dev libxcb1-dev libxcb-glx0-dev libxcb-keysyms1-dev libxcb-image0-dev libxcb-shm0-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-sync0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxkbcommon-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev libxcb-xinerama0-dev # instead of "libxcd-xinerama-dev"

Now, on my application and then Android! ;)

Thanks for the hint Charles, I will try to test the solution as soon as I can and report back on the result.

As far as I understand, I should do "sudo apt-get install libxcb-util-dev" as explained in https://forum.qt.io/topic/125582/qt-5-15-2-do-not-build-libqxcb-so-but-at-the-same-time-qt-5-14-0-successfully-build-libqxcb-so/4?_=1710013170647&lang=it and run "build-demo.py" again.

Will be back soon.

Do you have libxcb.so platform plugin in your qt directory?

If not you need to rebuild qt again, make sure that requirements listed at https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/linux-requirements.html are installed and make sure the xcb platform plugin is built.

I am now stuck at yet another error, which is

I am attaching the whole log again in case it's useful to better understand what went wrong.

Any idea how to move on from here?

Sorry for spamming but I hope this thread not only will fix my issues but also will serve as a reference for building with a Linux machine (or me and for others hopefully).

Hi,

"qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.15.10.tar.xz" is the right file you are looking for.

Unfortunately, "pyqtdeploy/sysroot/plugins/Qt.py" is looking for 'qt-everywhere-src-{}.tar.xz'

You could fix that line (#53) in "pyqtdeploy/sysroot/plugins/Qt.py"with:

` qt-everywhere-opensource-src-{}.tar.xz `

However, you might encounter problems down the line probably...

I would recommend to stick with Qt5.15.2 and do necessary changes.

Alternatively, you could built qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.15.10.tar.xz from source manually and tell pyqtdeploy where to look for Qt install (but that's a bit more painful).

Best regards,

I have just tried to update the sysroot.toml like this:

and now it seems the link to download the qt source can no longer be found.

The only similar thing I can see in https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.15/5.15.10/single/ is "qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.15.10.tar.xz"

If there is no easy way to solve this you can think of I will probably try to test adding those 3 lines to qtbase/src/corelib/global/qglobal.h

Thanks again so much for your kind and feedback, much appreciated!

add these 3 lines at the top of qtbase/src/corelib/global/qglobal.h : (I haven't tested that)

```

#ifdef __cplusplus

```

For ref, the QT bug associated is: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-90395

It has been fixed for QT5.15.9, but since you are using the default QT5.15.2, well it's not fixed.

With C++ the relevant error is the first error line, the rest is usually noise. If you google gcc numeric_limits is not a class template you will find https://bugs.gentoo.org/768342

I have attached the content of running build-demo.py with --verbose

First of all let me tell that I am very interested in finding a solution to this problem, and I will try to do my best if I can contribute in case it's needed.

I just checked, and this is what I can see in my /usr/include/openssl/opensslv.h file. Cannot tell though if pyqtdeploy is supposed to work or not given these lines...

Hi,

To complement my previous message (and after doing a quick search through the source code):

* The script "OpenSSL.py" is looking for "OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER" in "/usr/include/openssl/opensslv.h"

* In OpenSSL 1.1.1 (which is installed on my Linux), I can see the line "#define OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER" in "/usr/include/openssl/opensslv.h".

Can you check that you have that line in your header file too?

If not, it's probably that OpenSSL updated their header files and put the VERSION_NUMBER somewhere else...

If you want to run the demo, I would recommend you install the default versions as written in the `sysroot.toml`

If there are fixes to make for each "version grepping", I believe that Phil had a way to contribute to plugins for pyqtdeploy, but can't remember where...

Hi,

According to the sysroot help page (https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/pyqtdeploy/sysroot.html#openssl), if you have configured your `sysroot.toml` like this:
```
[OpenSSL.linux]
version = ""
install_from_source = false
```
Then, on Linux, the OpenSSL library used will be the one installed on your OS with no assumption on the version (so that should work in your example).

Now, that's what is provided in the demo folder for `pyqtdeploy-3.3.0`, so that's odd.

Therefore, it could be that the `pyqtdeploy-sysroot` functionality is struggling to extract the version number from your OS-installed OpenSSL.

---

I am not of great help with that comment, however, I would like to suggest, if it's your first time with pyqtdeploy to give a try at my Github repo:

https://github.com/achille-martin/pyqt-crom

This repo aims at demonstrating how beginner devs, intermediate devs and expert devs can benefit from pyqtdeploy.

It also offers a few simple tutorials to get started with pyqtdeploy (simpler than the demo in the official pyqtdeploy package) and optimises bits of the tool regarding the user interface (for now).

I can support you with your initial journey on discovering pyqtdeploy through my repo if you wish.

Best regards,

KC

Hello everyone, first time here for me :)

I was giving pyqtdeploy a try and I am stuck at the very first step of
the "Building the Demo" page.

I am on a Linux-64 machine. I am following the tutorial at
https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/pyqtdeploy/demo.html and
I have downloaded the demo files from
https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/44/d4/978017382f0ecc48601944c3fc0f58a5c5075a1d3acd48d09c11ee471b05/pyqtdeploy-3.3.0.tar.gz

I have created a virtual python environment with the following packages
and versions installed:

but I am getting the following error:

pyqtdeploy-sysroot: OpenSSL: unable to extract the version number.

OpenSSL is installed on my machine and the result of doing "openssl
version" is "OpenSSL 3.2.1 30 Jan 2024 (Library: OpenSSL 3.2.1 30 Jan 2024)"

Am I supposed to install the exact versions of all the components found
in the ""sysroot.toml" file to be able to run "python build-demo.py"
successfully?

Thanks,
