Running Ubuntu 20.04 under Windows 10 WSL I still get the "PySide" problem even though PyQt5 is installed as a dependency of git-cola by apt install. The problem is that libQt5Core.so.5 fails to load because it calls a kernel function that doesn't exist in the distribution I'm using. The fix is to run "sudo strip --remove-section=.note.ABI-tag /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5".
See https://askubuntu.com/a/1163268/358938 for the discussion that led me to this fix. I know this isn't git-cola's fault, but hopefully others will find this solution when they search for the same symptom as me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1799985 Title: git-cola needs pyside to start but does not depend on it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/git-cola/+bug/1799985/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
