linuxdeploy auto-walks every binary in the staged AppDir with ldd to
bundle their shared-library deps. That fights jpackage's self-contained
output on two axes and aborts the createReleaseAppImage task before any
AppImage is produced:
- The bundled JRE puts libjvm.so at usr/lib/runtime/lib/server/, while
its sibling libs (libmanagement.so, libawt_xawt.so, libfontmanager.so
and others in usr/lib/runtime/lib/) have RPATH=$ORIGIN. ldd cannot
resolve libjvm.so from those libs without help, so linuxdeploy errors:
ERROR: Could not find dependency: libjvm.so
ERROR: Failed to deploy dependencies for existing files
- The bundled libvlc plugins under usr/lib/app/resources/vlc/ are
UPX-compressed by the vlc-setup plugin. patchelf cannot read their
section headers, so linuxdeploy aborts:
ERROR: Call to patchelf failed:
patchelf: no section headers. The input file is probably a
statically linked, self-decompressing binary
- Even after working around libjvm.so via LD_LIBRARY_PATH, several VLC
libs have RUNPATH pointing at the wrong directory, so ldd fails on
libva.so.2 / libvlccore.so.9 next.
This is why v1.09.2 shipped .deb + .rpm from the linux leg but no
.AppImage and no linux .tar.gz from the linux-portable leg — the gradle
step failed on linuxdeploy, so the subsequent "Build portable archives"
step never ran.
Swap to appimagetool, which only embeds the AppDir as-is into a
SquashFS-backed, runtime-prepended AppImage and never touches the
contents. jpackage already bundles a complete, self-contained app —
we don't need linuxdeploy's dep-discovery. AppRun continues to handle
LD_LIBRARY_PATH at launch.
Verified locally on ubuntu-24.04: a fresh
:desktopApp:createReleaseAppImage now produces a valid 254 MB
Amethyst-1.09.2-x86_64.AppImage in ~30 s on top of an up-to-date
createReleaseDistributable.
Side changes:
- Workflow installs desktop-file-utils (appimagetool 1.9.0 calls
desktop-file-validate on the .desktop entry).
- BUILDING.md updated with the new local-dev fetch command.
- .gitignore replaces the linuxdeploy paths with appimagetool's.
The AppImage build inputs (AppRun, .desktop entry, icon, and the
CI-fetched linuxdeploy binary) are consumed only by desktopApp's
createReleaseAppImage task. Co-locating them under
desktopApp/packaging/appimage/ removes the `../` path escape from the
build script and keeps all desktop packaging assets inside the module.

Per maintainer request: the Rust sidecar workspace lives
under the module that owns it, parallel to the upcoming
nestsClient-browser-interop/ harness. The cargo workspace,
Gradle wiring, gitignore, CI YAML, plan docs, and harness
kdoc are all updated. cargo build --release still compiles;
HangInteropTest.amethyst_speaker_to_hang_listener_stereo_440_660
green at the new path.
Note: the live Phase 4 browser-harness agent (worktree
agent-a97a6be483ecee618) was branched from before this move
and references `cli/hang-interop` in its plan-doc imports.
It will need to rebase onto this commit before it pushes;
no code-level conflicts since the agent works exclusively
in nestsClient-browser-interop/ + a new
BrowserInteropTest.kt.

Lands the load-bearing infra for the hang/Rust cross-stack interop
test plan (nestsClient/plans/2026-05-06-cross-stack-interop-test.md):
the cargo workspace, Gradle wiring to install moq-relay /
moq-token-cli + build sidecars, the Kotlin harness that boots a
real moq-relay subprocess on a random ephemeral UDP port with
self-signed TLS and unrestricted public auth, plus the signal-domain
PCM assertion library and deterministic sine-wave AudioCapture that
Phase 2 scenarios will assert against.
Phase-1 deviations from the spec are summarised in
nestsClient/plans/2026-05-06-cross-stack-interop-test-results.md
— notably: --auth-public "" instead of the JWT minter (no
security-relevant difference for wire-format scenarios), --tls-generate
instead of in-Kotlin cert generation, cargo-install of upstream
binaries instead of an embedded kixelated/moq checkout, and
hang-listen / hang-publish / udp-loss-shim shipped as Phase-1 stubs
that compile + accept --flags but do nothing. Phase 2 fills those
in (and adds JVM Opus encoder/decoder).
Verified green via:
./gradlew :nestsClient:jvmTest \
--tests "com.vitorpamplona.nestsclient.interop.native.*" \
--tests "com.vitorpamplona.nestsclient.audio.PcmAssertionsTest" \
-DnestsHangInterop=true
Default mode (no flag) cleanly skips the harness-dependent test.

P1 fixes (must-fix):
- AppRun: VLC path corrected to usr/lib/app/linux/vlc (jpackage actual
path), add VLC_PLUGIN_PATH env var for codec discovery
- linuxdeploy: use APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN=1 env var to bypass FUSE
on CI runners instead of fragile pre-extract + symlink approach
- Prerelease classifier: inverted to positive-match stable format
(^v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$) across desktop, Android, and composite
action — eliminates regex drift between allowlists
- assert-stable-release: now accepts inputs (tag, is_prerelease,
is_draft) so workflow_dispatch on bump workflows also validates
P2 fixes (should-fix):
- .gitignore: add linuxdeploy-*.AppImage and extracted dirs
- RPM version: use replace("-", "~") instead of substringBefore("-")
for correct RPM prerelease ordering (1.08.0~rc1 < 1.08.0)
- linux-portable → linux alias moved into collect_assets() in
scripts/asset-name.sh (single source of truth)
- Android cache key: add gradle/libs.versions.toml to hashFiles
- r0adkll/sign-android-release: SHA-pinned to 349ebdef (v1)
P3 fixes (nice-to-have):
- LINUXDEPLOY_OUTPUT_VERSION env var replaced with
APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN (misleading comment + redundant var)
- nick-fields/retry timeout: 40m → 15m (surface real hangs)
- generate_release_notes: true only on Android job (avoid
last-writer-wins race across 6 concurrent uploaders)
- apt-get install rpm: tightened guard to matrix.family == 'linux'
(linux-portable leg doesn't need rpm tooling)
Add build_android.sh that cross-compiles the C secp256k1 library for
ARM64 using the Android NDK and places the .so in benchmark/src/main/
jniLibs/ where the benchmark APK will package it.
Usage:
cd quartz/src/main/c/secp256k1
./build_android.sh
cd ../../../../..
./gradlew :benchmark:connectedAndroidTest
Also:
- Fix Secp256k1InstanceC.android.kt to use Secp256k1C JNI binding
class (same pattern as JVM) so the JNI method names match
Java_com_vitorpamplona_quartz_utils_Secp256k1C_native*
- Add benchmark/src/main/jniLibs/ to .gitignore
https://claude.ai/code/session_011KVZhDcV2G7idNWEBz12GY
- Bundle VLC via ir.mahozad.vlc-setup plugin (all plugins for network playback)
- BundledVlcDiscoverer (Win/Linux) and MacOsVlcDiscoverer for bundled VLC discovery
- Lazy player activation — no VLC calls during composition, only on play click
- Pre-init VLC on background thread at startup
- Video controls: seek slider, volume, mute, fullscreen (two-row layout, no clipping)
- Buffering indicator (CircularProgressIndicator) while loading
- ActiveMediaManager enforces single-player — pauses others when new video plays
- Fullscreen passes seek position so lightbox resumes from current playback point
- LightboxOverlay renders videos (DesktopVideoPlayer) or images (ZoomableImage)
- Gitignore downloaded VLC binaries (appResources/{linux,macos,windows}/)
