      Dear UBports Community,

      In the process of trying to upgrade the Tiny Tiny RSS application to Focal (https://open-store.io/app/it.mardy.ttrss - https://github.com/cnlpete/ttrss), as it has been my daily companion for a while, and getting the following error while building:

      Error:

      Can't find the app manifest in the install dir. Please build the app first with "clickable build --arch arm64".

      Full:

      ~/.clickable/home/ttrss$ clickable build --arch arm64

Can't find the app manifest in the install dir. Please build the app first with "clickable build --arch arm64".

      I can see the manifest.json file being generated and present in the folders from the last lines of logs, but struggle to understand what are the next steps here?

      Many thanks in advance,
      Tera

        Found a "dirty" solution for now which seems to work, will need more investigation to clean up but got my preferred app running on Focal 🙂

          Hi @tera
          It's hard to understand what went wrong.

          The repo you linked is not made for clickable as far as I know (didn't try or look that hard).
          So I guess, you forked it and added the clickable parts like the clickable.yaml...

          Can you describe your "dirty solution" to see if it's that dirty 😉

          Thanks for your time and efforts on this matter, always nice to see people get their hands dirty.

            Hi @AppLee
            Sorry for replying with delays, been busy at work recently, so the "dirty" fix i mention is this line that i had to change in ttrss-ubuntu.pro:

            CLICK_DIR = $${OUT_PWD}/click

            which i had to update to:

            CLICK_DIR = ../../../../..

            I'm not close to QML and related tools fyi, glad i found my way quickly though 🙂

              @tera I understand now.
              It's something quite common to struggle with the makefiles 😉 (at least for me)

              If you follow a simple example with one of the templates provided with clickable it can help you better understand how things are intended.

              Best of luck with your attempt. When I see people make a single repository to compile for several targets, I feel overwelmed 😃
