symbol _ZdlPvm version Qt_5 not defined in file libQt5Core.so.5

Post by esthercamilo »

I installed Textmaker on Debian10 using:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install texmaker
When I execute the software, I get this error:

Code: Select all

texmaker: relocation error: /usr/lib/platforms/../../lib/libQt5XcbQpa.so.5: symbol _ZdlPvm version Qt_5 not defined in file libQt5Core.so.5 with link time reference
Any Idea what is wrong.

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Seems to a an incompatibility of the used Qt5 library and the new installed texmaker. You should send a bug report to the Debian maintainer of texmaker.
Sorry, but I can no longer participate here as the administrator is trampling on my wishes on one of his other platforms. :cry:

That error usually means there's a mismatch between the Qt5 libraries installed on your system and the version Texmaker expects. Most likely, Texmaker is linking to a different or outdated libQt5Core.so.5.
