Hello,
I have just tried to install mnemosyne on my new Ubuntu computer using the command:

sudo apt-get install mnemosyne.

When I try to run the programm I get the follwing message:

An unexpected error has occurred.
Please forward the following info to the developers:

Does someone know, what to do?

Do you have pyqt4 installed?

Try:

sudo apt-get install python-qt4

Hi,

The latest versions of Ubuntu have phased out support for QtWebKit, on which Mnemosyne 2.3.x depends.

So, best to switch to 2.4.x and install the PyQt5 dependency by 'sudo pip3 install PyQt5'.

There is already a Debian package for Mnemosyne 2.4, but I'm not sure if it's in an official release yet.

Cheers,

Peter
