Ubuntu snap packaging with Qt: fonts missing












1















I have binary and all resolved Qt dependencies packaged in tar.gz. I am using next yaml file for snap:



name: sample_name_lol_1
base: core18
version: '1.0.0'
summary: sample_summary_lol_2
description: |
sample_desc_lol_3

grade: devel
confinement: devmode

parts:
sample_name_lol_1:
plugin: dump
source: MyApp.tar.gz
stage-packages: [
ffmpeg,
x264,
x265,
libopencv-core-dev,
libopencv-imgproc-dev,
libopencv-calib3d-dev,
libblas-dev,
liblapack-dev,
libfontconfig1-dev,
fonts-freefont-ttf,
ttf-ubuntu-font-family
]

apps:
MyApp:
command: MyApp
environment:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH: $LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$SNAP/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/blas:$SNAP/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lapack


Normal application run (say from regular unpacking tar.gz) would give me information about all fonts available on the system. However snap run (sample_name_lol_1.MyApp) won't see system fonts, only few of them (only 3 to be precise - sans, sans-serif, monospace). I found path after installation, /snap/sample_name_lol_1/x1/usr/share/fonts and /snap/sample_name_lol_1/x1/etc/fonts. Those places are read-only and I can't figure out, what exactly should be done, so Qt application will able to see at lease standard Ubuntu font.
