Maya 2020 Linux Devkit : missing libraries

Hello,

 

Preparing our software to manage Maya 2020, we downloaded the devkits. Here is a list of the issues we met :

 

We tried creating an "API Support" case on the usual support website, but there was no 2020 version listed in the form. So we created a case in the "Software Downloads" category but the answer was non-sense.

 

Linux : 

Looks like the Maya 2020 Linux devkit under ADN / software / M&E Special download / Maya 2020 is broken : it has a weird extension solitairetheme8, and when unpacked, Qt libs symbolic libs point on some unexisting .so.5.12.5 libs in the archive. The same archive under https://www.autodesk.com/developer-network/platform-technologies/maya has a better extension tar gz but seems also broken. 

- the archive does not contain the sym-linked libraries for Qt (libQt*.so) are linked to unexisting .so.5 and .so.5.12

 

Windows & linux :

- cmakes expect to be in the former folder location (devkitbase/lib/cmake) instead of (devkitbase/cmake), as they search in the folder ../../.. They either need to be patched, or to be moved in a subfolder (formerly lib) to work.

 

Windows :

- CMake file reference debug versions of Qt dlls, they had to be patched to use release ones.

- no binaries are provided for Qt5Gui_QVirtualKeyboardPlugin.cmake, it would be better to remove or move this file to somewhere where it is not used by default (we had to skip it manually)

 

Best regards
