[GRASS-dev] SIngle-Window GUI not working on Ubuntu 22.04

Dear devs,

I just upgraded to the latest Ubuntu LT (22.04) and recompiled GRASS GIS. Unfortunately, the singe-window GUI does not work anymore.

This problem was reported as a bug earlier, see https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/2466, but I can’t make the proposed solutions work. I wonder if this is on the radar, and if there are directions for a easier and more permanent solution, so we can enjoy this great new feature on Ubuntu as well.

Cheers,

Paulo

Hi Paulo,

if you are getting the same problem, you should install the latest wxPython:

pip install -U -f https://extras.wxpython.org/wxPython4/extras/linux/gtk3/ubuntu-22.04/ wxPython

That should fix it. The wxPython in packages may be old and not patched, only 4.2.0 (released 2 weeks ago) has the fixes.

Brilliant, works like a charm, I don’t even need to recompile grass. Thanks Anna!
