Back again with hat in hand: stellarium (SOLVED)

Post by tgwilt »

Hi all,

I used the Software Manager to install Stellarium version 0.18.0-1. I've used it on many different Linux machines with no problem.

When launching the program, the splash screen appears then nothing happens. A look at dmesg|tail reveals the following

<stellarium[1789]: segfault at 7f302ac2e260 ip 00007f30148fa85c sp 00007fffcd7bd6b0 error 4 in libQt5Widgets.so.5.9.5[7f3014614000+616000]>

Looks like the problem was in libQtlibQt5Widgets.so.5.9.5Widgets.so.5.9.5. so I used Synaptic Package Manager to reinstall the package. Didn't do any good.

Any suggestions? Currently using LM Cinnamon 19.

Thanks in advance

I was able to get Stellarium to launch by installing Mint 18.3. Marked topic Solved

Version 19 is Beta as of now. So there are bound to be some bugs :
