Thank you Tom, I was trying to install chimeraX 1.5 on linux. We have centos 7, and I downloaded ChimeraX-1.5.tar.gz from https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimerax/download.html However, apparently it contains binaries and not source code. The binaries did not work in our centos 7.9 (glibc) So I tried to use singularity - I installed ubuntu 22.04, and tried there the deb file: ucsf-chimerax_1.5ubuntu22.04_amd64.deb However, got the pyqt6 error I tried to download to the singularity image the binaries from ChimeraX-1.5.tar.gz, and got the same error The singularity file I have built is attached I activated it within command * singularity build --sandbox /powerapps/singularity/images/chimara/ChimeraX1.5.img chimerax.build While putting the binaries in a directory I transferred to the image * singularity shell --writable /powerapps/singularity/images/chimara/ChimeraX1.5.img And then within singularity: Singularity> echo $PATH /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin Singularity> export PATH=/chimerax-1.5/bin:$PATH Singularity> echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH /chimerax-1.5/lib:/.singularity.d/libs Singularity> ls /chimerax-1.5/lib/libQt6Core.so.6 /chimerax-1.5/lib/libQt6Core.so.6 Singularity> Singularity> ChimeraX NOTE: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/chimerax-1.5/lib/python3.9/runpy.py", line 197, in _run_module_as_main return _run_code(code, main_globals, None, File "/chimerax-1.5/lib/python3.9/runpy.py", line 87, in _run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "/chimerax-1.5/lib/python3.9/site-packages/chimerax/core/__main__.py", line 1035, in <module> exit_code = init(sys.argv) File "/chimerax-1.5/lib/python3.9/site-packages/chimerax/core/__main__.py", line 579, in init from chimerax.ui import initialize_qt File "/chimerax-1.5/lib/python3.9/site-packages/chimerax/ui/__init__.py", line 21, in <module> from .gui import MainToolWindow, initialize_qt, menu_capitalize File "/chimerax-1.5/lib/python3.9/site-packages/chimerax/ui/gui.py", line 29, in <module> from Qt.QtWidgets import QApplication File "/chimerax-1.5/lib/python3.9/site-packages/Qt/__init__.py", line 64, in <module> from PyQt6.QtCore import PYQT_VERSION_STR as PYQT6_VERSION ImportError: libQt6Core.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory BUG: ImportError: libQt6Core.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory File "/chimerax-1.5/lib/python3.9/site-packages/Qt/__init__.py", line 64, in from PyQt6.QtCore import PYQT_VERSION_STR as PYQT6_VERSION _See log for complete Python traceback._ Singularity> Singularity> python Python 3.9.11 (main, Nov 28 2022, 23:56:15) [GCC 8.3.0] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

You might want to use ChimeraX 1.5 instead. We released it just a few weeks ago and that is the version most ChimeraX users will have.
