Help mayday! Can't start ATC-pie

Postby flight001 » Mon Jan 08, 2018 3:08 pm

I need help with the starting up of ATC-pie which failed multiple times even when I x-check a few times and looked at other posts in the forums. Anyone that can help me thank you very much.

as a pure eWAG, based on the "unknown command" lines, you need to properly install the "locate" and "pyqt5" packages for your distribution...

"Why not?" said Gurder.

i don't know anything about "brew" (i don't use it) but the very first of the log you posted says that it cannot find the locate command... without that one working, pyqt5 cannot be found so get that first error fixed and the others may fix themselves...

something else to think about is to make sure you are using the proper version of python... my system has both, python2 and python3... if i don't pay attention, it is too easy to try to use the wrong package with the wrong python version... if python3 is required, you need to do everything with python3...

if you only have python3, then i guess the proper libraries have been installed for it... that would eliminate my last part but the first part about getting the locate command to work properly still remains...

i've only ever used pip and then only once or twice...

Check https://github.com/Linuxbrew/brew/blob/ ... Manpage.md for the manual of how to use the "brew" command. It looks like there is a "search" command. You can use it to search for available python packages. Try commands like:
Code: Select all
brew search qt
brew search qt5
brew search python
brew search py
brew search pyqt5


When you have found such a package you can install it with the "install" command:
Code: Select all
brew install pyqt5             (assuming thats the package)

Also check the support forum of your linux distribution for how to install the PyQt5 package.
