QtPlasmaC update problem

Hi Phil,

LinuxCNC doesn't show any graphical interface at all when I start it up, it just gives this error. So I can't uncheck the virtual keyboard.

Maybe try opening Synaptic and installing onboard keyboard.

Hi Phil,

That worked, at least QtPlasmaC is running. It shows it is at v1.0.78, the update list says it should be at v1.215.107 ? Wait till the buildbot catches up ?

1.0.78 is back in September, it should be up to 1.215.107

Try sudo apt update then sudo apt dist-upgrade.

Hi Phil,

I will give a go. I am a bit apprehensive, somehow when I used the sudo upgrade command before to upgrade to buster I ran into a ton of problems, no graphical display manager, autologin not able to restore, you name. Drives me nuts this linux sometimes.

It is a big upgrade from Stretch to Buster, you shouldn't have issues now that Buster is running.

If you are concerned, you can just do sudo apt update which just updates the package list so it only finds out what needs updating, then you can apt list --upgradable which will show you what will be upgraded if you go ahead.

I have just pushed the fix for the error message.
