i recently have delved into packaging for solus and have installed solbuild correctly, and gotten down how to use the .yml packages. currently, i am attempting to package two different programs: stacer and joplin, however, i am having dependency issues with both.

here is the output when i use the make command in my stacer directory:

here is the output of using the make command in the joplin directory:

here is a github repo containing all of the files I am using:
https://github.com/sethfl/solus-packages

i have installed wget and qt5-base, qt5-svg, qt5-tools, and qt5-charts on my system and listed them as rundeps in the .yml files for stacer and joplin, so i am unsure as to why the build process exits due to wget missing or the qt5 .cmake files missing.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

    For stacer try to add these builddeps

    builddeps  : 
    - pkgconfig(Qt5Charts)
    - pkgconfig(Qt5Designer)
    - pkgconfig(Qt5Svg)

      kyrios i updated the package.yml for stacer here, however i am getting an error message stating that none of the pkgconfigs exist in this repository

          dordx You still haven't read the doc right. Have a closer look at Using pkgconfig dependencies

qt5-charts-devel package is not installed
Package found in Solus repository:
Name                : qt5-charts-devel, version: 5.13.2, release: 13
Summary             : Development files for qt5-charts
Description         : Qt Charts module provides a set of easy to use chart
                      components. It uses the Qt Graphics View Framework,
                      therefore charts can be easily integrated to modern user
                      interfaces. Qt Charts can be used as QWidgets,
                      QGraphicsWidget, or QML types. Users can easily create
                      impressive graphs by selecting one of the charts themes.

qt5-charts-devel package is not found in source repositories

          Here you see that qt5-charts-devel

          • provides pkgconfig(Qt5Charts)
          • Depends on qt5-charts and qt5-base-devel

          So indeed

          • pkgconfig(qt5-charts-devel) does not exists.
          • You don't have to specify the parent package qt5-chart (when ypkg creates a -devel sub-package, it automatically sets the dependency with its parent package)
          • You don't have to specify a pkgconfig for qt5-base-devel since it is a dependency of qt5-charts-devel

          It is normal you need to experiment and learn and people here are willing to help of course, but my piece of advise is don't rush, take some more time to carefully read the doc and don't hesitate to look at the existing packages.yml for other software as a good example sometimes helps more than a long documentation !

              kyrios got it working! thank you so much. it took me a bit to realize that the pkgconfig arguments were case sensitive :/
