Dear ChimeraX users,

I have a problem with the installation of ChimeraX under Debian 10 buster.

I downloaded the ucsf-chimerax_1.3ubuntu18.04_amd64.deb from the official website. I installed it one time with: sudo dpkg -i ucsf-chimerax_1.3ubuntu18.04_amd64.deb and also with sudo apt-get install ./ucsf-chimerax_1.3ubuntu18.04_amd64.deb. Both times I get the same error message:

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in " " even though it was found. This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

The full error message is as attachment in this mail.

I searched the web for an answer and came up with three entries of this mailing list. I followed the described way in these mails, but nothing worked for me (1st mail: https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimerax-users/2021-October/002797.html; 2nd mail: https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimerax-users/2021-October/002770.html; 3rd mail: https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimerax-users/2021-June/002339.html)

Do you have an answer or a solution to my problem?

Greetings from Germany
