I installed Google Web Designer on my Mageia 5 installation, and save the terminal install log to explain this more simple:
- Code: Select all
[root@localhost Downloads]# urpmi google-webdesigner_current_i386.rpm
installing google-webdesigner_current_i386.rpm

I concentrate on the 'touch' problem i think, the installation have this initial problem and i don't know, maybe 'cause this all of the problem with daemon D-Bus started on running installation, but, don't care too much about that, as you can see, the installation never stop, it just install the app as there were any problem... More interesting, you can execute the app on terminal:
- Code: Select all
[root@localhost /]# google-webdesigner
which: no google-chrome in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/lib/qt4/bin:/usr/lib/qt5/bin)
Yep, i'm no fan of google apps, i don't trust to much google either but, come on, a freeware alternative which pretend to compete with (nearly all powerful) Adobe Dreamweaver need to be check and tested, besides, this one looks promising even for just a Beta release full of bugs... Ok, now after execution, it show that on terminal, believe me when i tell you, it just no do that if you don't have google chrome installed, besides that message, it is another one with opera web browser if you don't have it installed before...
There is one more thing, i'm using a laptop acer aspire 4935 32bit... i'm telling you this to save you the comment to install google chrome, there is no more for 32bit users, less pepper... but for some reason this app (Google Web Designer) come for 32bit linux users (cosmic facepalm), not for all distros, but is better than nothing, so... "ddging" (duckduckgo + ing) the problem i find this:
Hi GWD Community,
We've just released a fix for the black screen issue on GWD supported versions. Please take a look at our release notes for more information.
Note:
If the problem persists, close Google Web Designer, delete the following folder, and relaunch:
Windows: HD:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Google Web Designer\data\cache(note: you need to enable “Show hidden files, folders, and drives” in Folder options View tab)
Linux: ~/.local/share/google-web-designer/data/cache
Mac: /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Google/Web Designer/data/cache
thx!

That message was posted on groups google forums. If i tried to do that?, yes, but i realize (well it's more like i believe) that the directory indicated doesn't exist on Mageia, and if it exist in any other directory of the system, google web designer installation package can't find it as explained before... anyone have ideas how to solve this mess, maybe creating this directory with this file manually or i must still wait for a new update to download a new package?.
PD: sorry for my bad english.
