- Distro: elementaryOS Ubuntu Linux 16.04
- Kernel: 4.4.0-72-generic
- OBS version: 18.0.1
I tried installing OBS via the installation instructions for Ubuntu Linux, but when I tried to run obs, I received an error in the provided log. I then tried to compile OBS manually and received the same error message.
$ obs
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "pantheon-filechooser-module"

After the first failed attempt to install OBS from the PPA they provide, I had to resort to installing it via the general linux installation guide, to no avail. As the guide suggested, I installed the xcb libraries:
$ sudo apt-get install libx11-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libpulse-dev libxcomposite-dev \
libxinerama-dev libv4l-dev libudev-dev libfreetype6-dev \
libfontconfig-dev qtbase5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev libx264-dev \
libxcb-xinerama0-dev libxcb-shm0-dev libjack-jackd2-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev

Verwenden Sie »sudo apt autoremove«, um sie zu entfernen.
0 aktualisiert, 0 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 20 nicht aktualisiert.
I also tried reinstalling them:
$ dpkg --get-selections | cut -f1 | grep libxcb | xargs sudo apt install --reinstall
Didn't help either.
