4. After the build is completed, you can see yaml files, etc. in the /home/deepin (user name)/altairgraphql (application name) directory. The program will not execute export. If there is no problem with the build, you can execute ll-builder export –layer in this directory to get the layer file.

5. If the program cannot run, you can execute ll-builder run –exec /bin/bash in the build directory to enter the container to check the problem.

6. The icon is abnormal after installation. You can open /home/deepin/altairgraphql (build directory)/linglong/output/binary/entries/../files/share to check whether the icons folder exists.
