TexMaker F1 Problem After Qt6 Install
-
I have TexMaker installed on two computers, a Mint Linux and a Win 10. TexMaker was working correctly on the Win 10 computer before I installed Qt6, after the installation the F1 key compiles the LaTex document but the pdf file is not up dated. Because of prerequisites I was forced to install Mint Linux 20 and the install Qt6 and TexMaker, which has the same problem. I believe that TexMaker is based on Qt5. Anybody know why this is happening and how I can get my TexMaker working correctly again? Thanks for any help.

Hi,
Do you mean you are building TexMaker with Qt 6 ?
-
What you do not explain is how you installed TexMaker, nor Qt 6.
Qt 5 and Qt 6 have explicit different so version so there's no risk for an application to pick the wrong major release by accident.
-
For TexMaker I downloaded texmaker_5.0.4_ubuntu_20_10_amd64.deb and ran it.
For Qt6 I ran the open source version of qt-unified-linux-x64-4.0.1-1-online.run.I am looking for the site were Qt5 is mentioned as the base for Texaamaker, I will post it when I find it.
-
I currently do wonder how an isolated installation of Qt 6 might interfere with TexMaker.
Can you run ldd on the TexMaker binary ?

That's what I was suspecting nothing related to Qt 6.
Did you try to run TexMaker from the command line to see if you have any log messages about what is going on ?
-
Do you get it to work again if you remove Qt 6 ?
-
Looks like it's unrelated to Qt 6 then.
Did you try to check if there's a log or something generated by TexMaker ? Did you try to start it from the command line ?

@SGaist The log for TexMaker when I press F1:

It seems to indicate that the pdf file was written, but I checked and it was not. I hope it helps.

@ofmrew said in TexMaker F1 Problem After Qt6 Install:
Package ifluatex Info: LuaTeX not detected.
I don't know if it's related but worth a check.

Did you re-install TexMaker ?
