cmake ARCHIVE_EXTRACT command

[ivangermes]

Used a CMake ARCHIVE_EXTRACT command that supports only from CMake 3.18.
But required cmake version is 3.10 ( for linux ) or 3.14 ( for windows ).

This leads to embarrassing errors ( ubuntu 20.04 with out-of-box cmake version 3.16 ):

CMake Error at 
flutter/ephemeral/.plugin_symlinks/serious_python_linux/linux/CMakeLists.txt:25 
(file):
  file does not recognize sub-command ARCHIVE_EXTRACT


Unable to generate build files

Error building Flet app - see the log of failed command above.

CMake docs about ARCHIVE_EXTRACT:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/file.html#archive-extract

ARCHIVE_EXTRACT usage:

serious-python/src/serious_python_linux/linux/CMakeLists.txt

Line 25 in e44dff1

file(ARCHIVE_EXTRACT INPUT ${PYTHON_FILE} DESTINATION ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR})

serious-python/src/serious_python_windows/windows/CMakeLists.txt

Line 24 in e44dff1

file(ARCHIVE_EXTRACT INPUT ${PYTHON_FILE} DESTINATION ${PYTHON_PACKAGE})

I suggest increase requirement version of cmake to 3.18.
There will be a clearer error message.
And it will also allow to learn the list_prepend function. Because list(TRANSFORM ..) and list(PREPEND..) will already be supported in cmake 3.18.
E.g. here

serious-python/src/serious_python/example/run_example/linux/flutter/CMakeLists.txt

Line 14 in e44dff1

function(list_prepend LIST_NAME PREFIX)

same issue

I am using CMake version 3.22.1, but I am also getting the same issue. How do I fix this?

[pullenrc]

Has there been any update or workaround to this issue? I have just install Flet 0.24.1, and Flutter 3.24.3, and am getting this error.

@pullenrc where do you get that error, while using flet build?

[szho42]

I had the same issue when run flet build for linux platform. I am using the flutter installed via snap, while the flet official documentations strongly suggest to have flutter installed in the manual way. Not sure whether it is relevant.

Update: tested with flutter manually installed, the same issue remains.

flet --version
---> 0.24.1
The documentation shows nothing on how to resolve these errors OR how to ensure the packages are up to date
https://flet.dev/docs/publish/linux
The documentation also did not mention that I need to install flutter, which I did using: sudo snap install flutter
