Description I027614 I027614 2024-01-05 23:14:53 CET

Description of problem:

When launching qflipper from Menu nothing happens. When launched from console you get:

qFlipper
13 [default] QQmlApplicationEngine failed to load component
13 [default] qrc:/main.qml:2:1: module "QtQuick.Window" is not installed
13 [default] qrc:/main.qml: module "QtQml.WorkerScript" is not installed
13 [default] qrc:/main.qml:2:1: module "QtQuick.Window" is not installed

13 [APP] qFlipper version 1.3.2 commit 7b0839e 2023-06-08T12:58:22
13 [APP] OS info: Mageia 9 9 6.5.13-desktop-6.mga9 Qt 6.4.1

After installing qtdeclarative6 the graphic environment works, but it doesn't recognize the device. Apparently a question of permissions.

It works from its AppImage.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

qflipper.1.3.2-1.mga9

How reproducible:

Installing qflipper from repositories and running it

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install qflipper from repositories
2. Run it
3. Install qtdeclarative6 and run qflipper. Connect a Flipper Zero device through USB
4. Run qflipper from AppImage to compare

Thank you for the report.

Description : Desktop application for updating Flipper Zero firmware via PC.
Group       : System/Kernel and hardware

Re the requirement you discovered for qtdeclarative6, it is true that currently qflipper has no even indirect declared requirement for it; and conversely, qtdeclarative[5|6] is not required even indirectly by qflipper.

Installed & ran qFlipper, Confirmed the terminal output in comment 0.
Installed qtdeclarative6, running qFlipper from menu or terminal pops its primitive GUI "Connect your Flipper"; "Waiting for devices"; and this is logged:
[APP] qFlipper version 1.3.2 commit 7b0839e 2023-06-08T12:58:22
[APP] OS info: Mageia 9 9 6.5.13-desktop-6.mga9 Qt 6.4.1

So we need to see why the device - what is it? - is not seen. If it is a USB thingy, please pôst the O/P of:
 $ lsusb
or if a PCI device:
 $ lspci

A newer version: 1.3.3 exists in Cauldron. Maybe it would be simplest to try that. It was done by DavidG, so assigning this bug to him to make that available. Oh - and add the requirement for 'qtdeclarative6'.

@I027614 I027614
Are you able to get things from updates_testing repository if required? You would be the best person to try the update if David does it.
