Installing QtVCP

Hello all
I have problem when i installed Designer 5.15.8
I have Debian Bookworm with LCNC 2.9.
I installed qtvcp from script for 2.9

But when i start qt from Terminal i get this:
cnc@am-082e5f06e065:~$ designer -qt=5
Qtvcp python plugin found: /home/cnc/.designer/plugins/python/qtvcp_plugin.py
[QtDesigner][INFO]  Logging to: /home/cnc/qtdesigner.log (logger.py:107)

mmap tool data not available, continuing emc/usr_intf/axis/extensions/emcmodule.cc
link (updating variable file): No such file or directory
link (updating variable file): No such file or directory

And when i try to use some of the widget (like GCodeGraphics), the QT designer crush and got this on the terminal:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/OpenGL/latebind.py", line 43, in __call__

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I cannot find on the forum some answers
Did i need some dependencies  or to change some paths... or maybe is still early for bookworm..

thanks
 

I see there are all kinds of opengl problems reported on bookworm for AXIS and Gladevcp.
Qtvcp uses much of the same code.

Thanks Chris
i will wait couple of months till bookworm become stable..
it is very convenient because we can install LCNC from synaptic

I followed the instructions to install qtvcp in the first post but the LinuxCNC widgets do not show in the designer. I am using Bookworm and the latest build of LinuxCNC 2.9. I have been searching and found nothing recent about this issue. My guess is that I just don't have the plugin for it. Can I get some guidance on where to look from here? It is difficult searching for more information on this when I don't know what questions to ask.

I fixed it by manually copying this file /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/qtvcp/plugins/qtvcp_plugin.py to ~/.designer/plugins/python/

that works, but using a link is better in case the file changes.
