[Gambas-user] cannot load component 'gb.qt5' - WSL Ubuntu 20.04

[dahaiou at gmail.com]

Hello all, my first post here.

 

I saw a thread about this here in the list from October, with a couple of replies by Bruce,

but it wasn’t clear if the OP managed to get it working or not.

 

I have the exact same fault, when installing gambas3 on Ubuntu 20.04 under WSL:

The installation as such is apparently successful with no errors, but when giving

the command “gambas3” it fails directly with the following message:

 

gb.gui.qt: error: cannot load component 'gb.qt5'

 

I am using the Xming X-server under Windows and other X apps (eg. synaptic) work fine.

 

I have rinsed and repeated installs and purge/uninstalls of gambas3 multiple times,

both with synaptic from the PPA, as suggested by Bruce, and plain apt-get install from CLI,

but still getting that same error every time.

 

So, I would very much appreciate ideas or pointers on how to troubleshoot and deal with this.

 

BR, Henrik
