SUMMARY Stacked images and Panorama tools cannot be used because hugin and enfuse binaries are not found by Digikam. The binaries are in the path and manually selecting their location with 'Find' button does not accept them. Installed packages: hugin-tools v2018.0.0 enfuse v4.2-4 Digikam version: digikam-6.0.0-beta3-20181228T114626-x86-64.appimage SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.52.0 Qt Version: 5.11.1
Here under openSUSE Tumbleweed all tools (same versions hugin-2018 and enfuse 4.2) are also automatically found in the AppImage. In which file path are the hugin tools installed? Maik
Can you post the output from the console, for example, if you choose autooptimiser manually. As an an example: digikam.general: Testing "/usr/bin/autooptimiser" ... digikam.general: "/usr/bin/autooptimiser" help header line: "autooptimiser version 2018.0.0.be8da0221960" digikam.general: Found "/usr/bin/autooptimiser" version: "2018.0.0" digikam.general: All Binaries Found : true Maik
Hugin tools appear to be in /usr/bin Console selecting autooptimiser: Digikam::DBinaryIface::checkDir: Testing "/usr/bin/autooptimiser" ... Digikam::adjustedEnvironmentForAppImage: Adjusting environment variables for AppImage bundle Digikam::DBinaryIface::parseHeader: "autooptimiser" help header line: "ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib64/libudev.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored." Digikam::DBinarySearch::slotAreBinariesFound: All Binaries Found : false
Digikam::adjustedEnvironmentForAppImage: Adjusting environment variables for AppImage bundle Digikam::DBinaryIface::parseHeader: "autooptimiser" help header line: "ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib64/libudev.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored." This error come from only the AppImage. This is due to binary compatibility with low level libraries which cannot be embeded in the bundle. One solution to this problem is to build the bundle under a more recent Linux system. Remember that currently we use CentOS 6.10, which still maintained... Another solution is to preload shared library in the AppImage run script as we already do. Take a care, it will puzzle the AppImage stating process and can have a side effect at run time. Look the already preload set here : https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/project/bundles/appimage/data/AppRun#n11 As you can see the famous libudev is already in the list of pre-ploaded items... and typically, the .so file cannot be found on the target system... Gilles Caulier
On this ubuntu system the libraries are not at the paths that Digikam has hardcoded: libfreetype.so -> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfreetype.so.6 libudev.so -> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.1 If I manually create symlinks to /usr/lib64 then the Stacking/Panorama tools work.
Maik, How to make a list of shared libs to preload with right path without to make a distro puzzle ? Perhaps we need a bash function to found the path of specific lib to pre-load to run it. Gilles
There is one solution here, but it's not perfect as it return all symlinks pointing to shared lib : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13148608/how-can-i-find-the-full-file-path-given-a-library-name-like-libfoo-so-1 ex under Centos6.10 : [gilles@localhost data]$ echo "$(ldconfig -p | grep libudev.so | tr ' ' '\n' | grep /)" /lib64/libudev.so.0 /usr/lib64/libudev.so [gilles@localhost data]$ ll /lib64/libudev.so.0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 16 29 oct. 11:09 /lib64/libudev.so.0 -> libudev.so.0.5.1 [gilles@localhost data]$ echo "$(ldconfig -p | grep libfreetype.so | tr ' ' '\n' | grep /)" /usr/lib64/libfreetype.so.6 /usr/lib64/libfreetype.so Gilles
Ok the solution is something like this : echo "$(ldconfig -p | grep libfreetype.so | tr ' ' '\n' | grep / | grep ".*\.so$" )"
meku, I upload a new Linux AppImage bundle 64bits with a patch for LD_PRELOAD to be more universal. Please try with this version here : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Gilles Caulier
Hum, in fact my way to use hard coded library path is the best, as ldconfig can be run as root only in some Linux... So i need to revisit my patch
Yes, the same here under openSUSE, ldconfig needs root rights. Maik

The above commit fails to preload of the shared libs because the lib filenames are not matched. As previously noted, ubuntu paths are: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfreetype.so.6 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.1 Yet this build DOES work for stacking and panorama tools. Is it because $LD_PRELOAD is left unset in this new build? Output from console at startup: -- digiKam AppImage Bundle -- Use 'help' as CLI argument to know all available options for digiKam application -- Preloading shared libs:

This would also work for normal users. I just do not know if ldconfig is located under /sbin/ in all Linux distributions. echo "$(/sbin/ldconfig -p | grep libfreetype.so | tr ' ' '\n' | grep / | grep ".*\.so$" )" Maik
You are right Maik, if i pass the full path to ldconfig, with a standard user it work. I can revisit the patch then... Gilles
After 3 weeks of work, i finally completed the compilation of AppImage using Qt 5.11.3 + QWebkit 5.212. New 6.1.0 pre-release AppImage bundle can be found here (64 bits only for the moment) : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Please check if this bugzilla entry still valid. Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier
Stacked image tool is not working in DK 6.1 or DK 6.2 appimages. The interface now finds the binaries but shows a waiting page with "Pre-processing is under progress, please wait." Looking at running processes there doesn't appear to be any image processing going on. I can confirm it works as expected in final DK 6.0 release.
Between 6.0.0 and 6.1.0, nothing has changed in this plugins about processing. I suspect a change in binary program used in background, especially about CLI interface. Which versions do you use with mandatory programs for this plugin ? Gilles Caulier
The mandatory programs do not appear to have changed since my first post. Installed are: hugin-tools v2018.0.0 enfuse v4.2-4

Appears to be working again in digikam-6.2.0-git-20190426T172018-qtwebkit-x86-64.appimage Note that running the appimage with 'debug' then the stacked tool cannot find the binaries, though this appears to have been an issue in all versions - including DK 6.0.0
Which one is not found exactly ? Gilles Caulier
And it's the same for Panorama plugin ? Gilles Caulier
In debug: stacked does not find any required binaries and panorama only finds 'cpfind' and 'make'. Without debug: all the required binaries are successfully detected.
*** Bug 411882 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
OK, I close the bug now. Without debug mode, all programs are now found. If necessary, reopen the bug. Maik
