SUMMARY When I launch the new fraction activity, no chart is displayed on the screen, only a fraction. So the activity makes no sense. (The help file says ‘A shape split in equal parts is displayed on screen.‘, but no shape is shown.) On the terminal, I found this error message: qrc:/gcompris/src/activities/fractions_create/PieChart.qml:7:1: module "QtCharts" is not installed After I installed the libqt5-qtcharts-imports package on my system (openSUSE Tumbleweed), everything works correctly (a pie chart is shown). So this bug is really about the build system. I can build GCompris without having libqt5-qtcharts-imports installed, and there are no errors or warnings indicating this, only a non-functioning activity. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Build GCompris without the Qt Charts library installed (using the cmake command). 2. Start the fraction activity OBSERVED RESULT Not chart displayed. EXPECTED RESULT When running cmake, there should be an error that the Qt Charts library is missing. (Alternatively, the two fraction activities should be automatically disabled due to a missing dependency. But I prefer an error, as it is easy to overlook disabled activities.)

Hi, thank you for reporting this issue (and all the other ones!). To be sure, did you compile it yourself and not used ? It should not affect the releases we make as we always ship the qml charts plugin, but it could affect distributions if they don't update their requirements (I've added a reminder to specify it for when we send a mail to packagers after the release) and those who compile themselves. QtCharts is a qml plugin, like box2d (used for balancebox, land_safe and submarine). For now, for box2d, we check at runtime if the plugin is present and we display the activities only if the plugin is present. It's not ideal as we silently remove the activities... I'll check again if there is a possibility to keep the activities displayed, and when we click on them, having a dialog telling the plugin is missing.
Yes, I compiled it myself (using cmake and Ninja).
That is, I compiled GCompris myself. I used my distro‘s package of the Qt Charts plugin (which isn’t installed by default).
