QtPlasmaC update problem

Hi Phil,

I get this from python3 :
plasma@Plasma:~$ python3
Python 3.5.3 (default, Sep 27 2018, 17:25:39)
[GCC 6.3.0 20170516] on linux

Buster has python3.7, so your options at the moments are:
Stay on Stretch with an older version of QtPlasmaC and wait until the python versions are sorted.
Move to the Buster distribution.

Hi Phil,

I have upgraded to Buster, I suppose buildbot will upgrade LinuxCNC overnight before we see a version change ?

The latest QtPlasmaC on bulildbot is 1.215.107 which is from yesterday.

Did you change the sources in Synaptic?

Hi Phil,

Yes, I changed the sources in Synaptic. Linux upgraded to Buster with problems, lost the gnome desktop and had to manually install that. It's working now, but when I start LinuxCNC then I get this message :

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/qtvcp", line 417, in <module>

head = _translate('VIRTUAL KB ERROR')
TypeError: translate(str, str, disambiguation: str = None, n: int = -1): not enough arguments

Any idea what's going here ? Seems a python problem ?

No, it is a Phill problem. I am out at the moment and will fix when I get back.
If you uncheck the virtual keyboard it may work for you until fixed.
