Issues running on Linux

[Dylan Wilson]

When I run the shell script I get the following:

$ ./Repetitions.sh 

QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme.

"QFormBuilder was unable to create a custom widget of the class 'QWebView'; defaulting to base class 'QWidget'." 

"QFormBuilder was unable to create a custom widget of the class 'QWebView'; defaulting to base class 'QWidget'." 

./Repetitions.sh: line 4:  9972 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) ./Repetitions

$ 

I am running Fedora 18 with kernel version: 3.10.11-100.fc18.x86_64

I get this in my /var/log/messages:

This problem is most likely due to Repetitions not being able to access the file "designer/libqwebview.so", which is a library in a subdirectory of the Repetitions folder.

The shell script tries to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH pointing to the current folder, so that Repetitions is able to access the libraries correctly -- you may have to modify this depending on your setup.

I'll try running this on Fedora 18 the first chance I get.

I'm having this same problem

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04

I'm pretty inexperienced...I'm not sure how I would go about making the suggested modifications so that the libraries can be accessed correctly.

Can anyone advise me on how to do this?

Thanks!

I am trying to use Repetitions 1.823 for Linux

This is the output of uname -a (kernel info):

4.4.0-109-generic #132-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 9 19:52:39 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Additionally, I checked /var/log/syslog and found the below messages...I'm not sure if this is relevant at all but I didn't have a /var/log/messages file:

Can you open a terminal window in the Repetitions folder and type "./Repetitions.sh" and see if that works?

This worked! I can't seem to figure out a launcher that works. though! Can you possibly help me? I tried doing the following:

created a .desktop file (Repetitions.desktop) in ~/.local/share/applications/

these were the contents of the file:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Repetitions
Version=1.6
Exec=/home/emily/software/Repetitions/Repetitions.sh
Terminal=true
Icon=/home/emily/software/Repetitions/icons/256x256/Repetitions.png
Type=Application
Categories=Education
Comment=A cross-platform spaced repetition flashcard application

The launcher does not work for some reason, even though it's marked as executable. These are the permission of the file:
-rwxrwxr-x

Maybe this can help:

The .desktop included was tested on an older version of Ubuntu, so something might have changed that prevents it from launching.
