libgio-2.0.so.0 undefined symbol (AppImage)

[ReenigneArcher]

There have been reports in the moonlight discord that the AppImage does not run on all linux distros.
See here: loki-47-6F-64/sunshine#267 (comment)

Most likely the AppImage is missing runtime dependencies.

This may be useful: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1994258#p1994258

According to this comment, linuxdeploy excludes any libraries in the excludelist from pkg2appimage: linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy#107 (comment)

This commit may fix the issue, as libgio-2.0.so.0 is no longer excluded: AppImageCommunity/pkg2appimage@1e3ecde

@thatsysadmin Could you test this build of the AppImage to see if it's still complaining about missing libgio-2.0.so.0?

It complains of libgobject-2.0.so.0. Had an exit code of 127.

Okay thanks... Slightly different than before.

@thatsysadmin sorry for being a pain... any chance you could test this one? Apparently linuxdeploy binaries were rebuilt recently which resolves this issue (same issue I believe): linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy#197

Nope. Same error.

sudo ./sunshine.AppImage

[sudo] password for h:

BTW, The file the CI spat out that you gave me is compressed twice.

[ReenigneArcher]

@thatsysadmin okay thanks. I will open an issue against linuxdeploy tomorrow to see if they can assist.

I'm aware of the double archive, and I know it's annoying. The reason for that is if the individual files are uploaded to artifacts directly, they lose any execution permissions.

[ReenigneArcher]

There is a new commit to pkg2appimage that I believe will resolve this issue.

AppImageCommunity/pkg2appimage@5c8ea76

[ReenigneArcher]

@thatsysadmin mind testing this one? https://github.com/SunshineStream/Sunshine/actions/runs/2049605403

[thatsysadmin]

@ReenigneArcher
Nope. Same issue as before.

[thatsysadmin]

Thought I'd try my laptop which isn't as used heavily (the install is "cleaner" so to speak), to rule out my desktop OS install; same error.

[ReenigneArcher]

linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy#198

[ReenigneArcher]

According to this workflow run, a new release has been published for linuxdeploy. Note that the release date doesn't get updated on the releases page.

https://github.com/linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy/runs/5780897623?check_suite_focus=true#step:4:23

I will try to build again to see if it's resolved now.

[ReenigneArcher]

Based on these warnings, I am not sure if the issue is fixed or not. https://github.com/SunshineStream/Sunshine/runs/5839581100?check_suite_focus=true#step:7:740

If you could try again that would be great. https://github.com/SunshineStream/Sunshine/actions/runs/2098245926

[thatsysadmin]

Different error this time. symbol lookup error: /lib64/libpango-1.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_memdup2

[ReenigneArcher]

I guess that's progress, haha.

At this point, I'm guessing the missing libraries need to be manually added to the AppImage. If anyone would like to take on this issue, that would be appreciated. AppImage build is completely done inside the CI.yml workflow file.

Just tried to add libpango-1.0 to the appImage but the issue is the same.
Workflow reported that libpango is already installed.

libpango-1.0-0 is already the newest version (1.44.7-2ubuntu4).
libpango-1.0-0 set to manually installed.

After starting the AppImage, the error is the same
