I am trying to install Master on Buster. I followed this guide without any luck:
Debian 10 LinuxCNC
Everything looks like it ran through fine, but when I run Linuxcnc I get the following error:

LINUXCNC - 2.9.0~pre0
Error in startup script: couldn't read file "/usr/lib/tcltk/linuxcnc/bin/pickconfig.tcl": no such file or directory

I am running this is a virtual box.
Help, please

thanks
Ruben

If you compiled from source you are probably running a "run in place (RIP)" system, ie all the executable files are in ~/linuxcnc-dev rather than in /usr/

In a terminal window try
cd linuxcnc-dev
. ./scripts/rip-environment
linuxcnc

(Yes, that really is dot - space - dot - slash )

Not sure what I have done, I followed all the steps in the post Phil did not seem to work. Andy, tried to run the script, just told me I am not running RIP, then I was scratching around and found the DEB files in the home dir for Linuxcnc. I installed that via GDebi and work 100%.

Thanks for the help, It might have been me being dumb... coming from windows for way to long, still wrapping my mind around Linux.

Will redo from scratch to see what i did wrong..

Thanks Gents!
