Cool idea. Can't run on the latest Ubuntu though, it seems the latest Qt in the Ubuntu repos is 5.7? $ ./doogie ./doogie: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/li

Cool idea. Can't run on the latest Ubuntu though, it seems the latest Qt in the Ubuntu repos is 5.7? $ ./doogie ./doogie: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.9' not found (required by ./doogie) Or is it supposed to use the Qt shared objects in the current directory? It seems to find the system ones first.

Eek, yeah, I didn't have a global Qt install when I was testing. I do bundle the Qt libs along side. Maybe change LD_LIBRARY_PATH to local dir? I have filed an issue: https://github.com/cretz/doogie/issues/45 https://github.com/cretz/doogie/issues/45. That's why it's an alpha release :-)

  Doesn't seem to work - not sure why. Perhaps you can fix by calling dlopen on the shared objects explicitly rather than linking them and relying on the linker to find the libraries at runtime. I'm not sure, not totally familiar with C linking.

    I have opened a new release at https://github.com/cretz/doogie/releases/tag/v0.6.1 https://github.com/cretz/doogie/releases/tag/v0.6.1. Please test there, and comment on https://github.com/cretz/doogie/issues/45 https://github.com/cretz/doogie/issues/45 if it's still not working.

  You should look into distributing an AppImage. Its author has a very nice script that you can use to ship Qt apps that works on all linux distros: https://github.com/probonopd/linuxdeployqt https://github.com/probonopd/linuxdeployqt Also, is there a particular technical reason you went with CEF directly instead of QtWebEngine or QtWebkit ? It would be interesting to know about it.

    I'll look into linuxdeployqt. I am probably just going to statically link Qt. I am not using anything security conscious with Qt and I don't want versions changing underneath, so a system-level Qt makes little sense I think. QtWebKit was deprecated then just recently undeprecated IIRC (with a non-Qt maintainer). As for the QWebEngine stuff, it was a bit premature when I was looking and didn't offer everything I needed at a low level. It's quite possible it does now (and would make my work easier!), but I have not looked.
