QtLocation and QtPositioning not installed

  • 772

I'm trying to develop a KDE widget that should display a map. At the moment I can't get the widget to load, because of the errors module "QtLocation" is not installed and module "QtPositioning" is not installed.

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04. Looking at this page, I've made sure that libqt5positioning5 and libqt5location5 are installed. The widget still does not load with the above errors.

On reddit someone told me that I also need to install the QML bindings. What are the package names I need?

kde application-development libraries qt5 qml

    As you are talking about developing, in other words about programming, then you need to install development packages with headers:

    • qtlocation5-dev for /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/QtLocation/QtLocation;
    • qtpositioning5-dev for /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/QtPositioning/QtPositioning.

    Install them along with QML bindings with 

    sudo apt install qtlocation5-dev qtpositioning5-dev 
sudo apt install qml-module-qtlocation qml-module-qtpositioning

    Next time you can use the file search on packages.ubuntu.com.
