Hi,

I have written this yaml:

app: pspp

ingredients:
  dist:    precise
  package: pspp
  sources:
    - deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise universe
    - deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates universe
  ppas:
    - adamzammit/pspp

script:
  - rm *AppRun
  - cp ../../pspp.AppRun .
  - chmod a+x pspp.AppRun

while it builds fine whenever I run the resulting AppImage I get the error:

execv error: No such file or directory

The pspp.AppRun referenced in the above yaml is this:

#!/bin/bash
HERE="$(dirname "$(readlink -f "${0}")")"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${HERE}/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/:${HERE}/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pspp:$HERE/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openssl-1.0.0/engines:${HERE}/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sasl2:$HERE/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/:$HERE/usr/lib/:${HERE}/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export PATH=${HERE}/usr/sbin:${HERE}/usr/bin:/bin:/sbin:$PATH
"${HERE}"/usr/bin/psppire.wrapper "$@"

This AppRun was needed as without it, it complains that a library present in usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pspp was not found. Any ideas of how to resolve this issue?

EDIT: There's no point asking for an AppImage from the upstream project as we already know the GNU Project (to which PSPP belongs) does not provide binaries, only source code.

Thanks for your time,
Brenton

The following works for me, note that your sources lines were broken again.

app: PSPP
union: true

ingredients:
  dist: precise
  sources:
    - deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise main universe
  ppas:
    - adamzammit/pspp

script:
  - mv usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pspp/* usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/

Thanks it launches OK, but it fails to load several icons giving the error:

perhaps adding something like:

- mv usr/share/pspp/* usr/share/icons/hicolor/

to the end of the yaml will fix it?

Tried it and na. Didn't work.

I think we have to add some environment variable to make GTK+ load the icons from inside the AppImage rather than trying to load them from /usr.

Well I've installed PSPP on my Ubuntu 16.04 installation. Then ran printenv | grep pspp to see if any environment variables associated with this program are set to /usr/share/pspp. And it returned nothing.

No I mean an environment variable that tells GTK+ (outside of the AppImage) to load the icons from inside the AppImage...

Perhaps XDG_DATA_DIRS? https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/stable/gtk-running.html

Yes, try experimenting with it...

I did, assuming I was meant to include export XDG_DATA_DIR=$XDG_DATA_DIR:/usr/share/pspp in my AppRun, and I got the execv error I started this issue with. Here is my AppRun:

#!/bin/bash
HERE="$(dirname "$(readlink -f "${0}")")"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${HERE}/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/:$HERE/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openssl-1.0.0/engines:${HERE}/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sasl2:$HERE/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/:$HERE/usr/lib/:${HERE}/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export PATH=${HERE}/usr/sbin:${HERE}/usr/bin:/bin:/sbin:$PATH
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$XDG_DATA_DIRS:/usr/share/pspp
"${HERE}"/usr/bin/psppire.wrapper "$@"

here is my yaml:

app: pspp
union: true

ingredients:
  dist: precise
  sources:
    - deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise main universe
  ppas:
    - adamzammit/pspp

script:
  - mv usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pspp/* usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
  - rm *AppRun
  - cp ../../pspp.AppRun .
  - chmod a+x *AppRun

Why are you putting /usr/share/pspp in there?

But again, we are just guessing here. I am really happy to help if someone who knows about how the software to be packaged works shows up here. Second-guessing other people's software without help from the authors is not something I want to spend my time with; hence I don't like the GNU project because they assume that 3rd parties do that for them.
