Nixpkgs: Android emulator crashes when launched from Android Studio FHS environment

[alapshin]

Describe the bug
Android emulator launched from Android Studio FHS environment crashes with error message

Emulator: /home/alapshin/opt/android-sdk/emulator/qemu/linux-x86_64/qemu-system-x86_64: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Looks like nss is missing from FHS environment used for launching Android Studio. To launch emulator I had to add a bunch of missing libraries into https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/applications/editors/android-studio/common.nix

Even with additional libraries emulator prints following warnings during launch

Emulator: Warning: QXcbIntegration: Cannot create platform OpenGL context, neither GLX nor EGL are enabled ((null):0, (null))
Emulator: emulator: ERROR: VkCommonOperations.cpp:496: Failed to create Vulkan instance.

but main emulator functionality works. However if I try to open emulator settings from emulator interface itself (floating toolbar) emulator crashes with stacktrace:

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install Android Studio
2. Install Android SDK from https://developer.android.com/studio (Android Studio does it automatically on first launch)
3. Create AVD (Android virtual device)
4. Try to launch created ADV
5. Emulator crashes with error message from above.

Expected behavior
Emulator should launch and work

Additional context
I seem to remember that emulator was working fine in nixos-unstable a couple of month ago until 20.03 was merged in but can't say for sure since I didn't use it until recently.

@alapshin thank you very much for the detailed bug report, that's very useful :)

@alexbakker created a PR that should address this issue: #70857
But unfortunately I didn't have time to test it yet (I don't use Android-Studio anymore and did only test the builds on my Desktop-PC where the Emulator doesn't run (IIRC due to the AMD CPU, possibly also due to the incompatible GPU)).

Comparing your patch with #70857 I've noticed that you've added some additional dependencies:

• dbus
• libxcb

Maybe we should add those in #70857 as well.

Similar here:

Emulator: Path override failed for key ui::DIR_LOCALES and path ...
Emulator: Qt WebEngine resources not found at /Users/joshuaduong/qt-build-5.12.1/install-darwin-x86_64/ ...

No joshuaduong user on the computer, of course.

I see the issue has been closed and a PR has been merged over a month ago. Is this going to be fixed automatically in a future version of Android Studio?

I'm using the latest one and I got the same error.

Info on my build:

I see the issue has been closed and a PR has been merged over a month ago. Is this going to be fixed automatically in a future version of Android Studio?

Yes, it should already be fixed (except for 19.03 and older channels).

I'm using the latest one and I got the same error.

@bani the same error as @maxbernyk-vibrato or the error that PR https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/70857 should fix?:

Emulator: /home/alapshin/opt/android-sdk/emulator/qemu/linux-x86_64/qemu-system-x86_64: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

In any case the output of nix run nixpkgs.nix-info -c nix-info -m and the full log from the Android Emulator (i.e. at least all Emulator: messages from the Event Log window) would be helpful. And it might also be relevant if this happens with an Intel or AMD CPU as these issues might be hardware dependent.

And feel free to open a new issue if this isn't related to the missing shared library (libnss3.so).

@primeos thanks, understood. Now I don't think it's related to the original issue and PR, and I don't even know if it's related to this project. Sorry! I don't have nix installed. It was the same message as @maxbernyk-vibrato, and it only happens the first time I try to interact with one of the buttons on the side of the emulator. It isn't preventing things from working overall.

For reference, I'm using Intel and this is the log:

[primeos]

@bani if you don't have Nix installed this is the wrong issue tracker as changes to the Nix package only affect Nix(OS) users (not the upstream Android Studio package from Google or the downstream package of your Linux distribution).

If you're using the official package from the website: https://developer.android.com/studio/
You should be able (IIRC) to create a bug report by selecting Help -> Submit Feedback (from the menu bar of Android Studio).
If you install Android Studio via your package manager you should probably use your distribution's issue tracker first / contact the maintainer: https://repology.org/project/android-studio/versions
