Getting QT apps running.

[Dietmar Winkler]

Thanks Oli,

I've implemented it as you suggested and got one step further:

$ ipe
ln: failed to create symbolic link
'/home/dietmarw/snap/ipe/x22/.themes/themes': Read-only file system

(process:31604): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "overlay-scrollbar"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gtk-vector-screenshot"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gail"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "atk-bridge"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "unity-gtk-module"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Qt: Session management error: None of the authentication protocols
specified are supported
error loading module 'main' from file '/snap/ipe/x22/share/ipe/7.2.5/lua':
cannot read /snap/ipe/x22/share/ipe/7.2.5/lua: Is a directory
stack traceback:
[C]: in ?
[C]: in function 'require'
[string "require "main""]:1: in main chunk

but now I'm stuck again.
