I have returned. Due to some slightly stupid things I did (not in Leo!) I decided on a new install of Ubuntu 18.04
Here is the installation script I am using for Leo Install Python sudo apt update sudo apt install python3-pip sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5 # Combination of instructions from Matt Wilkie & Vitalije Milosevic (vitalije) on Googlee Groups leo-editor. sudo apt install git wget http://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/zipball/devel/ --output-file leo-editor-devel.zip unzip leo-editor-devel.zip # Note problem # rename the resultant folder something reasonable mv leo-editor-leo-editor-ca0c671 leo-editor cd ~/leo.editor cd leo-editor pip3 install --editable ./ I am now back to where I was about Feb 7.

Thanks Note I am still getting the strange behaviour, after a clean Ubuntu install, that when I download * leo-editor-devel.zip *ArchiveManager reports that the file is corrupt. A repeat of the wget command, without trashing * leo-editor-devel.zip, * gives me a zip file *index.htms.1* which unzips into the leo folder. I seem to have both Python Python 2.7.15rc1 & Python 3.6.7-1~18.04 installed. I also have pip installed. > ================================================================= > > > On Thu, 7 Feb 2019 at 10:05, vitalije <[email protected]> wrote: > >> >> >>> I got Leo to install after I installed* python3-pyqt5 *as Vitalije >>> suggested but Leo seems only willing to load in the GNOME console. >>> >>> Also I used pip rather than *pip3* >>> >> >> It seems like there is an error in setup.py.
