Description Marco Missere 2019-06-26 10:59:51 UTC 
SUMMARY

Spectacle installed via snap doesn't run because it can't load the libraries libxcb-image.so.0.



STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install snapd (if not on Ubuntu)
2. sudo snap install spectacle (any channel)
3. Run spectacle



OBSERVED RESULT

Running Spectacle via command line, the output is:
"spectacle: error while loading shared libraries: libxcb-image.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"



EXPECTED RESULT

Spectale should be able to load those libraries and run.



SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Linux: any distribution
Comment 1 David Redondo 2019-06-27 15:19:38 UTC 
So I don't think this is a bug in spectacle. The repo doesn't include anything related to snap as far as I know. I don't know snap in detail but to it seems there is failure to declare/ship libxcb-image as a runtime dependency.
Where did you get the snap from? You should report this to them.
Comment 2 Marco Missere 2019-06-28 08:48:05 UTC 
I got the snap from the Snapcraft Store, the official snap published by KDE.
Comment 3 Jonathan Riddell 2019-06-28 10:55:38 UTC 
Can you try build 24 now in Candidate channel?
Comment 4 Marco Missere 2019-06-28 11:29:27 UTC 
Build 24 runs but it doesn't save the images properly. It creates the image files but these doesn't work.
Comment 5 David Redondo 2019-06-28 11:41:06 UTC 
What do you mean by the files don't work?

Image Viewer can't show the images.
Comment 8 Marco Missere 2019-06-28 11:52:24 UTC 
Spectacle shows an error message and Image Viewer can't show the images.
Comment 9 David Redondo 2019-06-28 11:56:26 UTC 
Hm, can't reproduce this with spectacle snap and using gwenview as an image viewer.

This should work now with the package in release channel
