module "QtPositioning" is not installed

[Peter Akarakiri]

Hello all,

I have a Qt app in Ubuntu. I'm trying to run the "subdirs" project using appman. The application builds fine.

When I run the application, I get the following error:

[CRIT | am.system] WARNING: for the installer to work correctly, the executable needs to be run either as root via sudo or SUID (preferred) [sudo.cpp:135]
[CRIT | am.system] (using fallback implementation - you might experience permission errors on installer operations) [sudo.cpp:136]

I've tried the following:

1. According to https://forum.qt.io/topic/50037/qml-included-modules-not-installed-unless-qml-directory-is-a-subdirectory-of-the-project-file/3, I set the QML_ROOT_PATH with no luck.
2. This did not help either - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39472286/qml-error-qrc-main-qml24-module-system-is-not-installed. This is because I'm using appman rather than using "QQmlApplicationEngine" directly to run the application.

Any clues to get the application to run?
