policies are deprecated and that a policy should be set to OLD only under
specific short-term circumstances. Projects should be ported to the NEW
behavior and not rely on setting a policy to OLD.

Steps to reproduce the problem (only for bugs)

[rik-shaw]

sudo apt-get install clementine is installing fine for me in bionic. It appears to run fine as well after install.

[pythonwood]

@rik-shaw you used apt-get dist-upgrade?

I flush disk and install 18.04. now see this

$ ldd path/to/clementine | grep not
libprotobuf.so.9 => not found
libchromaprint.so.0 => not found
libechonest.so.2.3 => not found
libGLEW.so.1.13 => not found
liblastfm.so.1 => not found
libgpod.so.4 => not found
libqjson.so.0 => not found
libcdio.so.13 => not found
libcrypto++.so.9 => not found

I’m also doing a _new_ install of 18.04 (rather than an upgrade). I have just installed Clementine, it runs fine and ldd /usr/bin/clementine | grep not shows no output.

The version installed is 1.3.1+git276-g3485bbe43+dfsg-1.1build1.

[pythonwood]

@Moilleadoir Thank you for rise my mind ！

I donot know why but it it true because my local env and I deal it.

the newest problem is:
"clementine: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtGui.so.4: undefined symbol: _ZN27QEventDispatcherUNIXPrivate16initThreadWakeUpEv"

I had found the reason is that because I dirty the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in .bashrc

clear LD_LIBRARY_PATH and set it ok in .bashrc

test ok now. Thank you all.

Installation using _Ubuntu PPA_ according to the instruction on the official website:
https://www.clementine-player.org/downloads
currently doesn't work:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:me-davidsansome/clementine
HTTP Error 404: Not Found
Cannot add PPA: ''This PPA does not support bionic''.

The latest LTS release of _Ubuntu_ currently supported in the repository is _16.04_:
https://launchpad.net/~me-davidsansome/+archive/ubuntu/clementine

Either the instruction should be updated or the repository, or both.

[Moilleadoir]

Edit: What you say is true—that page needs updating—but maybe you should open an issue specifically about that.

Clementine is available in the standard repos (at least in 18.04)…

Also available as a snap (a little ugly) as is its Qt5 fork Strawberry (doesn’t include streaming features)…

Oh, that's what I used instead. Could you please tell what's ugly about the snap edition?

[Moilleadoir]

Getting a bit OT…I don’t have the snap version installed in Ubuntu, but it was the only option in Solus and the snap version did not fit with the theming, i.e. it was _visually_ ugly. Since Solus is a rolling release it looks like they will package Strawberry instead (newer libraries).

[DanAlexson90]

Okay, thanks.

Installing using the official repository results in "The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/me-davidsansome/clementine/ubuntu bionic Release' does not have a Release file."
