Since this appears to be a nuance of UnrealEngine, posting a couple of questions related to this carla issue. When one runs the (cooked / packaged / production) UE 4.24 based CARLA simulator headless in Ubuntu 18.04 GNU/Linux without the packages xdg-user-dirs xdg-utils
packages installed, one gets the warning sh: 1: xdg-user-dir: not found
. This occurs in RH Enterprise Linux 7, and likely newer versions of Ubuntu and RHEL. This appears harmless, but is a red herring to many users. My question to the UE community…
- Is there a way to suppress this warning or compile an UE project in such a way that it does not appear?
- Does installing the
xdg-user-dirs xdg-utils
packages actually benefit the user when running the program headless (i.e. command-line only, no GUI)? - Any unintended consequences to installing
xdg-user-dirs xdg-utils
packages into a GNU/Linux deployment without a GUI?
Thanks
