Running the application menu fails for me with

ImportError: Requiring namespace 'Gdk' version '3.0', but '4.0' is already loaded

I'm not a Python expert, but I assume this is because it imports GdkX11 before Gtk, which pulls in a later version of Gdk if it exists.

Fix is to change the import on line 7 to the following (i.e. putting Gtk first):

from gi.repository import Gtk, GdkX11, GLib

Hi All,

I'm trying to get lcarsede to run on Ubuntu 24.04 and I'm having relative success. I've managed to resolve most of the dependency problems, but I can't seem to resolve posix-ipc. I did install it using pip install python3-posix-ipc and it is installed now, but I'm still getting errors. Has anybody else successfully made the whole thing work on Ubuntu 24.04?

FYI, hats off to everyone who made this project happen. I love this interface. It is one of the best LCARS projects. I plan to integrate this with R Shiny project https://github.com/leonawicz/lcars.

Brand new Ubuntu 23.1 Server Build, Toshiba Satellite C855D, getting the following error when trying to build the package with sudo dpkg -i lcarsde-app-menu_23.1_amd64.deb:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of lcarsde-app-menu:
 lcarsde-app-menu depends on python3-posix-ipc; however:
  Package python3-posix-ipc is not installed.

installed posix-ipc with sudo pip3 install posix-ipc as doing without sudo causes install errors..

Install wont begin for app-menu. Says "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: python3-posix-ipc". I tried a new virtual environment like the previous closed similar issue said but no luck.
