Is the nightly PPA broken?

Post by SmartGuar »

The nightly PPA doesn't work for me anymore on Linux Mint. Everything got uninstalled except openmw-data.
It now says it lacks the dependencies: qt512base and libopenscenegraph161.
Is the problem on my side or is there a problem with the nightly PPA?

Not sure if this is better as a topic or a single post. So I posted both.

I've tested it and the Linux (Generic) nightly versions have the problem too.
The nightly builds from the 10th of July still work perfectly. The nightly builds from the 13th of July don't work.

So this is a problem with Ubuntu Bionic (I hate these names which you just can't tell apart) not having the new package versions in the official software sources.

Yeah, Bionic has the problem of not only having a bad version of OSG but also an old version of Qt. So... as I stated in the other nightly thread, I worked around this by hosting our own version of OSG you'll need from ppa:openmw/openmw along with a custom build of Qt as well.
