Ill try to give as many details as possible. I’m currently working on a JupyterHub running a pretty standard version of Ubuntu 22.04. We are using TigerVNC to connect to an XFCE4 desktop environment. I have tried using the superbuild, downloading through apt, conda, etc, but the least problems so far has been directly from the Paraview website. It seems to not be able to recognize the xcb library, or might be confusing QT between conda and system. Below, I’ve attached a screenshot with my exact error, which has been discussed here, but was never answered. Happy to provide more information if necessary. It would be really great to have this working on my system!
This is the Paraview 5.11.2 binary release that I ran/screenshotted above. This may be more of a QT question than Paraview, but I thought to ask here first.
I have tried a couple of different flags and installing packages through apt instead of conda in this image. I’m attaching the full output/stderr. If I need to install xcb through apt, would this package be the correct one to install? I appreciate the help thus far, but still have a bit of confusion towards finding a solution. output.txt (5.2 KB)
Apologies, let me clarify. I am using the binary release, 5.11. The dependencies are the only things I’ve been installing through apt/conda. It seems like there is a compatibility problem somewhere, but I’m not familiar enough with the requirements, which is why I attached the full debug output.
Because I am using a Jupyterhub instance, the desktop portion is vnc/websockify to allow me to utilize a desktop environment. I believe that adds some confusion to the system defaults and causes the error i’ve shown in screenshots/debug reports. I can try to provide more specific details, but my first post was mostly the extent of my knowledge.
