Dear fedora users,
I want to kindly ask if it is possible to create a fedora package as a standalone application. It would involve qt and other things like qt make, On qt creator we can run the app if we get the source code, but only on x86_64, but there is no qt creator for aarck64, to run on a raspberry pi. I like the calculator a great deal and would like to run it on the pi, but there is no way to do this. I have asked permission from the developer as to ask for help. I am willing to compile code if needed,but am scared of RPM devlopment not expert. Maybe someone can suggest what to try to get this going
The application is called Powercalc and runs on Android but it would be great if we can have it run as native Linux application. It is an RPN (reverse polish notation) calculator very powerful, with graphing, matrices and other great goodies.

CC'd Me Roar Lauritzen Powercalc developer since he might not be subscribed to list.
Maybe someone like Kevin Koffler(forgive me if name is incorrect) can help, he maintained code for ti based calculator file for several years. ?
Any thoughts ideas, are appreciated.
Regards
Antonio

This is an Android app, not Linux. It also doesn't appear to be open-source, so there's no way to re-compile it anyway. Your only option would be to use an Android emulator to run it.

Yes it is an android app,but the developer does share his code, it does not say open source, but the code is readily available. But to make it run on Linux we need a makefile qtmake, or other specific dependencies. What is needed to get this application running on native Linux?
I can run the app using qt-creator on x86_64, but would like to run on aarck64 specifically on a raspberry pi. Author can share the code with no problems, he wants to know what dependencies are needed?
No qt creator for aarck64, so that is out of the question. An amulator might be overkill?
Best Regards,
Antonio

Then why won't you provide a link to it so people can give you a more useful answer? "readily available", but I can't find any reference to it.

Why do you say that? Fedora has qt-creator for aarch64. Are you running Fedora?

Ok, I did not know that Fedora had qt-creator, I just dnf installed it. Author uses older qt versions, The version on Fedora might be too new, I get error message when building program
Unknown module(s) in QT:quick sensors SVG multimedia positioning.
Thank you Sir for making me aware of Qt creator for Fedora. Now I will need to see how it can work.
Best Regards,
Antonio
