@rokejulianlockhart did you see the other file mentioned in the link (qt5-quickcontrols2) and the shared library file?

zypper se --provides libqtlabsplatformplugin.so

S | Name                    | Summary                                | Type
--+-------------------------+----------------------------------------+--------
i | libqt5-qtquickcontrols2 | Qt 5 Quick Controls Addon              | package
i | qt6-declarative-imports | Qt 6 Declarative QML files and plugins | package

Does a Qt6 version exist? I’m using qml with PySide6, so I’d be surprised if Qt5 libraries worked. Especially considering

PS /home/rokejulianlockhart> sudo zypper install libqt5-qtquickcontrols2

Have I perhaps misinterpreted what you’re asking?

#5

@rokejulianlockhart the qt6-declarative-imports package contains the bits needed, I suspect powershell needs an update?

#6

@rokejulianlockhart all good here with 7.4.0;

#7

@rokejulianlockhart Ahh my bad, I thought it was a powershell issue on linux. Your running wsl2 and openSUSE and whatever app your trying to run isn’t working?

#8

No, I’m using OpenSUSE on bare metal. I just use PowerShell Core as my default shell in konsole. I haven’t chsh- s’d it as the login shell, though – that’s still bash.

#9

@malcolmlewis, perhaps you could look over my code at

(It’s a very small codebase of 3 files.)

I meant PyQt6, apologies.

#10

@rokejulianlockhart I’m not a coder of qt stuff :grimacing:

That’s alright. Not me much either, apparently! XD

Thanks for all your help.

#12

might be more comprehensive.
