Hi,

I am trying to install a deb package which requires libqt4-gui, but it seems there's no libqt4-gui package in stretch repository.
When I googled 'libqt4-gui', this pacakge is shown upto jessie and sid.
Stretch has 'ligqt4gui', which looks like something similar, but I cannot use it anyway for the installation of my .deb file.
Where should I ask or report to have this type of missing package?

Thanks in advance!

Can you tell us what deb package you're trying to install that requires libqt4-gui. I can find no package in Stretch called "ligqt4gui" or "libqt4gui". Which package do you think Stretch has and why can't you use it?

Hi jdkaye,

This is the package that I am trying to install: http://information-technology.web.ce..._3_3_0_027.deb
Or you may want to see other packages from this website: http://information-technology.web.ce...ownloads/Vidyo

Sorry, I'm wrong that I saw 'libqt4-gui' exists in stretch release. It's not in stretch, neither.

This package, VidyoDesktop requires libqt4-gui, which was fine when I had jessie, but now I'm in stretch, so I am not sure what should I do to have this program.
Could you help me to solve this problem?
Thanks!

The package is not in Testing (yet).

You could install it from sid and pin it until it reaches stretch.

Hi HeadOnAStick,

Thanks for reply and tip! I wasn't sure if it's possible to use sid packages but yes, I should try that!

The DesktopInstaller-ubuntu64-TAG_VD_3_3_0_027 that you're trying to download appears to be an ubuntu package. Perhaps you'll have to add some Ubuntu repos into your sources.list file.

I just tried to install copyq clipboard manager on latest Sparky Linux, and it produces an error "libqt4-gui missing".
I enabled sid repos and others, no change. I tried with online debian repository single package for stable (testing is not listed and sid links are dead), same story: when tried to load libqt4-gui.deb stable, just in case, "dependencies are not satisfiable" of course.

Maybe we should wait for sid/stretch package to appear.
It is unsolvable at this state I am afraid. I wish someone will say otherwise.

Update:
And, I found this too:
