GUI install not working - error about GTK/QT about birdnet-analyzer HOT 3 CLOSED

Finally got it to work by following up on the last error with the advice found here:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgtk-3-common

from birdnet-analyzer.

This seems to be an issue with the gtk installation on your machine. The current gui is based on the pywebview package, which uses a different library based on your OS and installed libraries, this can lead to a variety of problems.

Since we are going to switch to Gradio in the near future, I will close this issue.

I have the same problem, even with gradio now.

I followed the instructions for the Ubuntu setup to install all dependencies and clone the repo inside a new python 3.10 virtual environment.
After pip-installing pywebaudio and gradio, I tried launching the GUI and got:
webview.util.WebViewException: You must have either QT or GTK with Python extensions installed in order to use pywebview

I solved it by running pip install qtpy pyside2
However, now, after trying to launch the GUI, a blank GUI shows up and I get:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gi' Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

So I followed this and tried:
pip install vext pip install vext.gi
Which got me an error:
ERROR: Could not build wheels for vext.gi, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

Then I tried:
sudo apt install pkg-config libcairo2-dev gcc python3-dev libgirepository1.0-dev pip install PyGObject
But it produces this now when launching the GUI:
(gui.py:20272): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 21:52:27.028: Settings schema 'org.appmenu.gtk-module' is not installed Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)
