Leo 6.6b1 is running fine on a Fedora 33 VM. - I tested it via Git as well as via PyPI.

With kind regards,

Viktor

Leo 6.6b1 is running on a Debian 10 VM as well.

However if you start in a completely new environment, you still have to use the workaround to first install Leo 6.1 - and - then perform the explicit upgrade to 6.6b1 ...

With kind regards,

Viktor

I just spun up a fresh Debian VM. I installed Leo from pypi with pip, and got Leo 6.5.2. It installed and ran with no apparent problems. I didn't install from 6.6 from git so that I could see if all the dependencies got installed right from pypi and that no workarounds were needed. Since that was the case, I didn't think that Leo 6 would have problems. I assume that once 6.6 is on Pypi then it will install with pip and run also.

This is with Debian V11 (Bullseye), Cinnamon 4.8.6 (the desktop).
