Comment:
This is never gonna be accepted in repos. Stable version (2.9.0) requires `qt4-devel` in `CmakeLists.txt`

````
find_package( Qt4 4.8.3 COMPONENTS QtCore QtGui QtScript QtSvg QtXml REQUIRED )
if(WITH_QTWEBKIT)
    find_package( Qt4 COMPONENTS QtWebkit REQUIRED)
endif()
````
Qt4 is not part of the Void packages or templates, support for Qt4 has been dropped and I don't believe it was ever a part of the Void repos or xbps-src.

Here's a dirty repack of Amarok builds  for Ubuntu.

And these depends will probably depend on other depreciated depends, so... is it doable? Yes. Is it worth it? No. Even if you just repackage from deb/rpm, it'll still take a lot of time and effort. And some of those libs need to communicate with online services, most of them won't (not up to date protocols, things change), and even if they do, they're still insecure for online communication.

Thank you for your effort!

Well, if things change and they do transfer to Qt6/KF6, then yes, this would be more easy to do.

Comment:
I managed to package it as well, but it seems something is wrong. I get this when trying to run it.

When I run it with `--debug-audio`, I get this from the terminal.

And then the GUI error pops up.

Anyone know what the problem might be? I managed to solve a part of it (the debug info was longer) by installing `phonon-qt5-backend-gstreamer`, but that didn't solve it all the way.

I've made some modifications to the Amarok template since the last time I posted the template, here is what I used now.

Could someone build and see if they get the same error as me? Thanks!

Comment:
First I'd try removing all functions from the template and go with `build_style=cmake`, without `configure_args`. This builds for me, and the package looks intact at first glance (e.g., no `/usr/etc` in there).

Can't install right now though, because I don't want KDE messing with my Qt apps. Maybe I'll set up a VM when I find the time.

Comment:
The functions were just for testing, the final was supposed to have just `build_style=cmake`, `configure_args` and `build_wrksrc`, but the `build_wrksrc` didn't get parsed by xbps-src (or maybe I didn't define it properly, IDK), so I just thought I'd try and see if it can build like this, then clean up the template and just use the built in variables.

It actually does make the `/usr/etc` dir when installing, but I just moved it to the root of `$DESTDIR` (as it should be).

The building is not the actual problem, it builds without problems on x86_64 (needs a bit more work for cross), the problem is, it won't run, lol 😄.

EDIT: When adding `phonon-qt5-backend-gstreamer` to `depends`, that seems to cut down on the errors generated. Still, it won't detect any plugins 🤷.

Comment:
Agreed, building is probably not the issue. But it's not impossible either. At least with `build_style`, there's no `/usr/etc`, so there has to be something different with the `install` target. The `build_style` also uses `ninja` rather than `make`.

> the final was supposed to have [...] `build_wrksrc`

Built fine without `build_wrksrc` over here.
