I've got mine working okay.

How my deb install differed to yours….
i also install xorg and not just specific parts like xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-video-fbdev xserver-xorg-video-intel

apt install xorg

installed openbox config (and qt specific version) and some things to get a working openbox environment..

apt install obconf obconf-qt firefox-esr caja mate-terminal

caja for a file browser and mate-terminal as hitting the "terminal emulator" menu in openbox didn't work.

install complete gambas to ensure all qt stuff goes in….

apt install gambas3*

sudo reboot

on boot launch x

$ startx

gambas works and so does gb.qt5

So if I install xorg  and openbox like you did would the system support the dual display on the computer? (I have one dvi port and one vga port)

Has anyone heard anything about when or if a Qt 6 component will be added though?

The last commit has new gb.qt6 component.

It's currently only enabled for ubuntu lunar lobster

I'm working on getting it enabled for mint (ubuntu jammy)

problem seems to be the pkg config files do not get installed so the ./configure fails to find qt6 even if it's installed.

I've downloaded latest qt6 from git for a manual install as apparently creating the qt6–.pc package files was added in later versions.

I'll let you know how it goes….

Good to know things are in motion, even if I am quite happy with Qt 5.

hi! I'm confused, I just updated to Kubuntu 24.10. After the update i tried running Gambas3 but I'm getting this error:
gb.gui: warning: 'gb.qt6' component not found, using 'gb.qt5' instead

How do i install qb.qt6

 PLEASE DON'T tell gambas3 is no longer supported. I've googled the hell out of this but I can't seem to get it rectified!

Is it the original gambas install after the upgrade or a new install?
have you installed the gambas qt6 components?

when gambas installs if you do not have qt6 then it won't install qt6 components
if you then upgrade system after installing gambas additional components may need installing.

try this in terminal and see if gb.qt6 installs…

sudo apt install gambas3*

 Hello BruceSteers, thanks for getting back to me. I did a complete uninstall and then ran the apt-get install gambas3 and it's working again. I'm curious to see what other apps have been affected.
