Ok, so I tried it very quickly and this version can save projects, but has the same "Qt5.15" error :(

I'll try the Appimage also, and post the results.

Sorry, I've been inactive for a couple of days, been busy at work.

So I'm working with the Appimage and everything is going alright for now.

Thanks everyone!

I am seeing this issue now.

Code: Select all

During initialization the error "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.15' not found (required by /usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/PyQt5/QtCore.abi3.so)" occurred in /usr/share/freecad-daily/Mod/Tux/InitGui.py

I am not sure if it is Freecad's fault. It may be something that I have messed up in my system. But my Freecad was working yesterday.

However, I could not understand how this thread is fixing this issue.
I believe that it was fixed by installing the .appimage instead, but this is a workaround, not a real fix, right?

I have this same issue and there is NO 'solution' here for this to be marked 'solved.' The person asking it couldn't get it to work as described either. I am uncomfortable with appimage applications.

I had this before, but couldn't remember what I did to solve it. It wasn't adding a ppa and re-installing or using snap or.... The question was how to fix the missing qt5 issue. How to reinstall via a different method or package mechanism is always a nice addition, but doesn't answer the question.

never the less

I followed the instructions and added the ppa successfully. When I remove the original one, update apt-get and install freecad, I get the same version as I do when I installed it originally, along with the same "'Qt_5.15' not found error."

It would help to give complete instructions for the desired results. Do not mark these solved until they are.

Thanks

If the OP thought the answer "solved" his problem then it is "solved".

If it does not solve your problem start your own topic or just continue to use this one. Don't try to tell the OP his problem still exists.
