openSUSE Tumbleweed's plasma6-nm 6.6.4 does not ship the org.kde.plasma.networkmanagement.cellular QML submodule that SignalStrengthInfo.qml imports unconditionally. Without it the MobileShell QML namespace fails to load and preview boots to a black screen. Keep a minimal fallback module under tools/preview-stubs and install it only for local .prefix preview installs by default, with SHIFT_INSTALL_PREVIEW_QML_STUBS=AUTO/ON/OFF for explicit control. Add a CTest guard so qmldir entries stay backed by real files and the fallback remains tied to the QML import tree.

# Preview-only QML stubs
|
|
|
|
These stub modules satisfy QML imports that **upstream Plasma Mobile expects**
|
|
but that are not provided by the QML packages shipped on the host distro used
|
|
for preview/development.
|
|
|
|
They are installed only for local preview prefixes by default:
|
|
`SHIFT_INSTALL_PREVIEW_QML_STUBS=AUTO` enables installation when
|
|
`CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` ends in `.prefix`. Set it to `ON` to force installation
|
|
for another prefix, or `OFF` to disable it. Production installs using normal
|
|
system prefixes leave these stubs out.
|
|
|
|
## Current stubs
|
|
|
|
- `org/kde/plasma/networkmanagement/cellular/` — `CellularModemList`,
|
|
`CellularModem`. Required by
|
|
`components/mobileshell/qml/dataproviders/SignalStrengthInfo.qml`.
|
|
openSUSE Tumbleweed's `plasma6-nm 6.6.4` package does not ship this
|
|
QML submodule (only the cellular KCM `.so`). Without the stub the
|
|
entire MobileShell QML namespace fails to load and the homescreen
|
|
is blank.
|
|
|
|
When the host distro starts providing a real module at the same import path,
|
|
disable the local fallback by configuring with `SHIFT_INSTALL_PREVIEW_QML_STUBS=OFF`
|
|
before comparing against the system module.
