Pgadmin 4 Not working in ubuntu 18.04

Question

I have installed postgres 10 and pgadmin4 in my Ubuntu 18.04 version. everything went fine. I cannot open the pgadmin gui. what might be the reason. it simply wont open. Does it require Qt? how do i check if I got Qt on my ubuntu? PS: (Also Teamviewer App is also not starting up). Looks like it uses PyQt for the GUI of the application.(atleast that what i heard) PgAdmin 3 is working fine. These are the steps I have done.

Create the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list and add a line for the repository
```
deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ bionic-pgdg main
```

Import the repository signing key, and update the package lists

wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update

install posgtresql
```
sudo apt-get install postgresql-10 
```
install pgadmin 4
```
sudo apt-get install pgadmin4
```

EDIT: Launching from the command line, there is a first output:

`QApplication: invalid style override passed, ignoring it.`

then as @DennyMueller mentioned, a "Fatal Error" pop-up window saying:

`An error occurred initialising the tray icon`

How exactly are you trying to start the application? Can you please try again from a terminal to check for possible error messages. Please [edit] your question to describe the result. Thanks. — David Foerster, May 21 '18 at 19:23
Same issue here. pgadmin4 doenst start @ 18.04 "An error orccured initializing the tray icon" shows up after a while. — Denny Mueller, May 28 '18 at 12:28
@DennyMueller We're reopening the question, so you can [edit] it and provide more information that the OP did not provide. — Fabby, May 29 '18 at 19:36
Just in case you get `An error occurred initialising the tray icon` then install the topicons gnome extension https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/495/topicons/ — Denny Mueller, Aug 27 '18 at 11:58
