building for target: linux

I've sucessfully build&run mobile-datovka for Linux, but I got issue with having to manually remove android {} blocks in .pro file to build.

Can I build directly for Linux without modification mobile-datovka.pro?

If not, I'll look more into it and send patches (not using qmake often, so excuse my simple questions)

EDIT: android {} produces only warning, otherwise it's no issue

mentioned in issue datovka#436

it seems that QT ignores that it's in android condition, not sure yet why.

android {
        QT += androidextras
...
}

We've never endorsed that mobile Datovka supports desktop Linux. At the moment the build mechanisms are targeted for Andoroid and iOS.

But on my Gentoo the commands

qmake mobile-datovka.pro
make
./mobile-datovka

are enough to build and run the application.

Just to clarify: I don't have to modify anything to make the compilation work on Linux.

changed milestone to %1.9.1

changed milestone to %Next

Here is more complete support for Linux. 1.9.1 can be sucessfully build with these patches, including .desktop entry, icon, proper metainfo. These two patches should provide all required bits.

EDIT: Metainfo is adapted from Datovka (s/Datovka/Mobile Datovka/ + screenshot changed).

PATCHES are here: https://salsa.debian.org/okias-guest/mobile-datovka/-/tree/master/debian/patches

changed the description

Debian packaging preparation available here: https://salsa.debian.org/okias-guest/mobile-datovka

Tested on Librem 5 devkit.

@kslany can you please apply patches? From mentioned URL?

Since CZ.NIC liked my tweet about Linux support for Mobile Datovka, I assume they're not against merging these few lines of code.

@okias I suppose you are referring to these two files.

I'll have a look at them.

yes, exactly. Thank you @kslany

Can you tell approximately when?

Out-topic: is any chance that CZ.NIC will allow forking projects in Gitlab by users? It would allow simply sending pull request, which IMHO would be easier to review

@okias I had a quick look at it but didn't have the time to merge it as I had other stuff to do.

I'll try to process it as soon as possible. Maybe tomorrow.

changed milestone to %1.10.0

@okias Please checkout and test the librem-basic-support branch.

I've renamed the metainfo and desktop files. But I'm not sure whether I did't break something.

translation seems to be off

+                       Z Datovky je dovoluje číst a odesílat datové zprávy a
+                       obsahuje některé užitečné funkce.

otherwise it looks ok, you could keep the Changelog, but ok :)
