SUMMARY After following the wiki procedure for installing kdesrc-build via Git, I receive the following error when I attempt to run kdesrc-build on KDE Neon: Can't locate ksb/Debug.pm in @INC (you may need to install the ksb::Debug module) (@INC contains: /home/andrew/.bin/ /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.26.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.26.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.26 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.26 /usr/share/perl/5.26 /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base) at /home/andrew/.bin/kdesrc-build line 108. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Install kdesrc-build from Git via the wiki instructions: https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source#kdesrc-build 2. Run kdesrc-build OBSERVED RESULT Receive error: Couldn't load the base platform for kdesrc-build! More detail might be available in error-1256.log EXPECTED RESULT kdesrc-build executes properly SOFTWARE VERSIONS (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.51.0 Qt Version: 5.11.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
More information: t runs fine with executed from the source directory: $ ~/kde/src/kdesrc-build/kdesrc-build frameworks Works fine. But if I make a symlink to ~/.bin (which is in my PATH), and try to run: $ kdesrc-build frameworks I get the described error.
I've been away from email for a bit but Dominik Haumann managed to flag me down and have me fix this a few days ago. Apologies for the error, I've at least added this to the small kdesrc-build test suite so it should hopefully not recur.
