When I attempt to start Plover I get an error

I've updated everything, made sure I have all the libraries, and looked on the internet for an answer

I expect Plover to launch without throwing an error

Expected behavior

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/runner/work/plover/plover/build/appimage/plover.AppDir/usr/lib/python3.9/runpy.py", line 197, in _run_module_as_main

Perhaps you're missing an interface for glib thread abstraction in your system? Try installing 'libgthread*' from your distro's repo and see if that resolves your issue. HTH

I've been trying to build this on apple silicon and are getting to this very same point when building from the git tree.

Thank you @domoriga . I was getting exact same (frustrating) error message as OP @Kiwi-the-Cat ..

Taking your suggestion, on my OpenSUSE (Tumbleweed) system, I ran:

$ sudo zypper in libgthread-2_0-0

and now the .AppImage runs #Yay

Seems to me a simple, "Try installing libgthread" error message instead of above cryptic error msg would slightly shorten the course of human evolution (?)

Not sure what the issue was, i had to re-install qt@5 with brew.

brew install qt@5
