This directory contains the files needed for building pyqtdeploy bundle. Now you can manually build the bundle for linux. Assuming your sysroot dir will be in SYSROOTDIR (you'll need about 6GB free space there for building Qt) and sources - in SOURCEDIR, the build steps are following: 1. cd $SOURCEDIR && exec /path/to/PyBitmessage/packages/pyqtdeploy/download.sh 1. cd /path/to/PyBitmessage/packages/pyqtdeploy 1. pyqtdeploy-sysroot --source-dir $SOURCEDIR --sysroot $SYSROOTDIR --target linux-64 --plugin-dir plugins sysroot.json 1. virtualenv depends 1. source depends/bin/activate 1. pip install enum34 msgpack qtpy stem 1. deactivate 1. pyqtdeploy-build --sysroot $SYSROOTDIR --target linux-64 pybitmessage.pdy 1. cd build-linux-64 1. mv resources/src resources/pybitmessage 1. sed -i "s|src/|pybitmessage/|g" resources/pyqtdeploy.qrc 1. $SYSROOTDIR/host/bin/qmake 1. make The resulting PyBitmessage binary may require some shared libraries, particularly openssl. There is also a possible issue with pyexpat related to `sqlite3`: ``` 2020-07-10 18:36:01,135 - WARNING - Using default logger configuration 2020-07-10 18:36:01,517 - CRITICAL - Unhandled exception Traceback (most recent call last): File ":/src/bitmessagemain.py", line 477, in main File ":/src/bitmessagemain.py", line 354, in start File ":/src/bitmessageqt/__init__.py", line 4288, in run File ":/src/bitmessageqt/__init__.py", line 595, in __init__ File ":/src/bitmessageqt/bitmessageui.py", line 542, in setupUi File ":/src/bitmessageqt/blacklist.py", line 18, in __init__ File ":/src/bitmessageqt/widgets.py", line 25, in load File ":/PyQt5/uic/__init__.pyo", line 226, in loadUi File ":/PyQt5/uic/Loader/loader.pyo", line 72, in loadUi File ":/PyQt5/uic/uiparser.pyo", line 1013, in parse File ":/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 1182, in parse File ":/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 651, in parse File ":/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 1476, in __init__ File ":/xml/parsers/expat.py", line 4, in SystemError: _PyImport_FixupExtension: module pyexpat not loaded ``` --- ref: (pyqtdeploy v2.5.1 User Guide)[https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/pyqtdeploy/index.html] (medium article)[https://medium.com/@Lola_Dam/packaging-pyqt-application-using-pyqtdeploy-for-both-linux-and-android-32ac7824708b]
