Workarounds for running on linux

[HelloKS]

For anyone wants running Hitomi Downloader on linux, hope this post helps.

1. You can use wine for running windows version. It kinda works reasonably when you disable DPI protection in settings. If this OK, you can skip this discussion.
2. You can also download and run technical preview version of linux binary here. Unzip it with your favorite tool then run:

chmod +x hitomi_downloader_GUI.bin
./hitomi_downloader_GUI.bin

If it opens without any errors, enjoy.

However, it did not run on my system with this error:

./hitomi_downloader_GUI.bin: symbol lookup error: /tmp/_MEI6TwoeA/libQt6WaylandClient.so.6: undefined symbol: wl_proxy_marshal_flags

With some quick search, it seems related with conflict between system wayland library and the one included with pyinstaller (issue). So I tried run without wayland (Xwayland):

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb ./hitomi_downloader_GUI.bin

It did not run, but this time with other error:

qt.glx: qglx_findConfig: Failed to finding matching FBConfig for QSurfaceFormat(version 2.0, options QFlagsQSurfaceFormat::FormatOption(), depthBufferSize -1, redBufferSize 1, greenBufferSize 1, blueBufferSize 1, alphaBufferSize -1, stencilBufferSize -1, samples -1, swapBehavior QSurfaceFormat::SingleBuffer, swapInterval 1, colorSpace QColorSpace(), profile QSurfaceFormat::NoProfile)
Could not initialize GLX

I chose to not to fix getting run OpenGL (which surely will take some time), but instead run without it.

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb QT_XCB_GL_INTEGRATION=none ./hitomi_downloader_GUI.bin

Voilà, it now runs without any errors!

Although it runs with XWayland and no graphics acceleration, it runs better than wine for me. YMMV

Edit:
Adding --disable-gpu parameter also helps.
