qtc_launch_gallery cannot find examples

[Jamie Strandboge]

On xenial, if I go to Tools/Ubuntu/Showcase Gallery in QtCreator, I see:

/usr/share/qtcreator/ubuntu/scripts/qtc_launch_gallery finished with code 1

If I launch /usr/share/qtcreator/ubuntu/scripts/qtc_launch_gallery from a terminal, I see:
$ /usr/share/qtcreator/ubuntu/scripts/qtc_launch_gallery
Could not find the ubuntu-ui-toolkit examples, please make sure they are installed
[1]

I have ubuntu-ui-toolkit-examples installed:
$ dpkg -L ubuntu-ui-toolkit-examples
...
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/examples/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/examples/ubuntu-ui-toolkit-gallery/UbuntuListViews.qml

Looking at /usr/share/qtcreator/ubuntu/scripts/qtc_launch_gallery, I see:
if [[ `dirname $0` =~ ubuntu-sdk-ide ]]; then
  echo Run from IDE
  EXAMPLES_PATH="$(/usr/ubuntu-sdk-dev/bin/qmake -query QT_INSTALL_EXAMPLES)/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/examples"
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/ubuntu-sdk-dev/lib/
  QMLSCENE="/usr/ubuntu-sdk-dev/bin/qmlscene"
else
  EXAMPLES_PATH="/usr/lib/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/examples"
  QMLSCENE="/usr/bin/qmlscene"
fi

Looking at 'ps auxww|grep qtc' output, I see:
$ ps auxww|grep qtc
jamie 5977 3.4 4.9 2034464 396284 ? Sl 08:35 0:22 qtcreator

Therefore, the 'else' is using and it sets EXAMPLES_PATH to /usr/lib/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/examples, but it should be set to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/examples/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/examples by looking at what ubuntu-ui-toolkit-examples ships.

WORKAROUND: adjust /usr/share/qtcreator/ubuntu/scripts/qtc_launch_gallery to have: EXAMPLES_PATH="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/examples/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/examples"

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

'ubuntu-sdk-ide' and 'qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu' are no longer included in any currently supported release of Ubuntu. I'm closing this as 'Invalid' in order to tidy the outstanding list of '100 Papercuts' bug reports.
