I am teaching myself PyQt6 using this tutorial. I get the examples running and I want to use Qt Designer. I can install it but in all cases (mentioned below) Qt designer starts and hangs. I have to kill -9 in order to stop the job. The things I have done are:

  • using the link above, it asks you to pip install pyqt6-tools. When calling pyqt6-tools designer Qt designer starts and hangs
  • I tried this link with the same results (starts and hangs):
    sudo apt-get install qttools5-dev-tools
    sudo apt-get install qttools5-dev
  • I tried to apt install sudo apt install designer-qt6 but the resulted in sudo apt install designer-qt6 not found when I tried to start it

Anybody any idea how to install and start a running version PyQt6 designer? Preferably stand alone but other solkutions are welcome as well.

  • I am using Kubuntu 22.04 and synaptic shows designer-qt6 and clicking on it adds a lot of additional files. I still and on 5 for my one app, and will need to convert soon, so cannot otherwise help. `sudo apt install synaptic`. – oldfred Aug 14 '23 at 13:53
  • Installing it by synaptic didn't help.After installating the system cannot find any package wiith the name designer-qt6. What exactly is installed with designer-qt6? – Arnold Aug 14 '23 at 14:10
  • Many apps install under one name but the name used to launch it is different. It should have a gui entry. – oldfred Aug 15 '23 at 00:12
