Hi,
as far as I know, Mint 20 contains an eric version that is around 6
months old. The recommended first step would be to upgrade to the latest
release (that is 20.8 released yesterday). Step 2 would be to check, if
the installed PyQt5 and QScintilla packages are compatible. Step 3 would
be to create a virtual Python environment and installe eric in there
with PyQt5 and QScintilla packages from PyPI. The eric installation
script will do this.
Regards,
Detlev

Running on Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon.
I open Eric6, open an existing program, open a new program, then copy
the first line from the existing program into the new program. That
line is
#!/usr/bin/python3
I then add a blank line and on the next line type
# sensor_rea
after I have types the 'a' and before I can type the rest of the word
the program crashes. I have done it several times and it is repeatable.
I ran it from a terminal and this is the terminal output -
mick@Mint20Desk ~/eric_env/bin $ ./eric6
Warning: translation file 'qscintilla_en_GB'could not be loaded.
