Hey you could try using distrobox? it might help you with your packages’ fragmentation until you can fix it

I mean I can try that but first I’ll try it on my laptop next weekend after updating it to Ubuntu 24.04. I’ll wait until the weekend with that because I’m simply a bit overcautious and want to take a full backup of my entire disk beforehand so I can act as if nothing happened incase somehting goes wrong, by just rolling it back.
I’ll report back after that and tell you if it works on the newer LTS or not.
Yeah the GLIBC thing is an issue with Debian based distros atm, iirc they are on the version 2.35 and the one that PyQt6 needs is the 2.36, the current version on Arch (my system) is 2.40, honestly i’m quite surprised that it’s that outdated.
if you do the command “ldd –version” in the terminal you should see your current version (Ex. ldd (GNU libc) 2.40).
Yes, it’s version 2.35 (©2022) for me, probably because Ubuntu 22.04 was released in 2022 and only gets security updates from there to remain as stable and predictable as possible.
Interesting then that I can use PyQt6 just fine for one of my projects that I’m writing on my laptop…
I just tried running PyNGtuber in that project’s venv but it still complains about the same missing version. Could it maybe be an environment variable that isn’t set correctly?
We’ll see in two or three days if upgrading helps. Otherwise I’m also going to try to install Arch (been interested in it for a while anyway) and see if I can properly use that despite all my ubuntu muscle-memory.
I tried the upgrade to 24.04 yesterday but it completely broke plasmashell, causing it to segfault when run under my user. Good thing backups are a thing!
I’ll soon try Fedora 40 on my PC and see if this works on there.
On Fedora 40 it just opened immediately, but complained with an error message that was blinking in and out that the mic was unavailable, no matter what mic I selected.
