Bug Description:

Originally posted here:

I tried to run the Theia GUI again and...

max@penguin:~$ ./TheiaBlueprint.AppImage /tmp/.mount_TheiaBm5zT5r/theia-blueprint: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

A Google search shows several apps where ChromeOS Linux users are complaining about missing libnss3.so

Everything solved again after manually sudo apt install libnss3 Theia GUI and your script works OK

No sure what is the package that contains libnss3.so that "everybody seems to have installed on their systems"... In any case it would be a good idea to check for it and alert the user (or proactively include it on the package just in case)

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Download the Electron-based application from here
  2. Start the app.

Does anyone know if this problem can be tackled at build time?

Additional Information

  • Operating System: Linux Developer environment on ChromeOS 90.0.4430.100. ChromeOS uses Debian Buster
  • Theia Version:

I have no solution or suggestions ATM. On my Ubuntu system, I have this library in both 64 and 32 bit, and do not experience the issue with Blueprint:

$ dpkg -l | grep libnss3
ii  libnss3:amd64                              2:3.35-2ubuntu2.12                                            amd64        Network Security Service libraries
ii  libnss3:i386                               2:3.35-2ubuntu2.12                                            i386         Network Security Service libraries
ii  libnss3-dev:amd64                          2:3.35-2ubuntu2.12                                            amd64        Development files for the Network Security Service libraries

Just to add some background:

  • Problem exist after doing "fresh install". On Chromebooks, you do not install the Debian OS. The ChromeOS is already distributed with a Debian 10 VM Image (actually, a container) ready to use.
  • Problem persist after checking for and installing updates
  • There is no further issue if you manually install libnss3 and then run TheiaBlueprint

For some reason, the Linux Image distributed with ChromeOS does not come with libnss3... But I am not sure what is the package that forces it to be installed on Ubuntu.

But in any case, shouldn't TheiaBlueprint check for the existence of this package and install it if it is not there??

Thanks

But I am not sure what is the package that forces it to be installed on Ubuntu.

I played a bit with an ubuntu container, and I do not see libnss3 installed as a dependency, while setting-up the development environment to build a Theia application. The library got installed-along when I installed openjdk-11-jdk (see below*). It's possible it's also a dependency of other popular packages on Ubuntu.

shouldn't TheiaBlueprint check for the existence of this package and install it if it is not there??

I do not think so. It feels like the wrong level to fix this.

It looks electron builder already attempts to add libnss3 as a Debian package dependency, for that target. So, if you were to install the .deb package generated by the theia-electron example, it might work. You'll need to build it yourself, on a compatible architecture machine.

It looks like this is how vscode makes sure libnss3 is present (mentioned as a Debian package dependency):

Thank you so much for the help, @marcdumais-work.

if you were to install the .deb package generated by the theia-electron example

I can make those changes on a branch in the Theia Blueprint repo.

it might work.

@maxiauer, could you please help with the verification once I have those changes?

I think it would be fine to build and eventually make Blueprint available in a Debian package. Is that what you have in mind @kittaakos?

I see we already generate the .deb

Yeap, send it my way and I will do the verification testing

Confirmed, shipping the app in deb target fixes the issue. Thank you for the help on this. Closing.
