Hi, I am having the same issue. Did you manage to resolve this?
I found this thread here that describes the same issue on Ubuntu 18.04: Installing psychopy on Linux
However, I cannot work out how to view the log described here:
- run
python -c "from psychopy import prefs; print(prefs.paths['userPrefsDir'])"
to find where your psychopy directory is- look at the contents of
last_app_load.log
in that directory- in my case, it showed me the true error:
libwebkitgtk-1.0-0
was missing, so:sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-1.0-0
- after that it errored again because it didn’t find any sound library. I fixed that with
pip install pygame
And either way it sounds like libwebkitgtk is no longer available anyway
I am trying to install PsychoPy on Ubuntu 20, the problem is that I cannot install libwebkitgtk. Apparently it is not available. I could manually install it but it has some dependencies that are not available either (e.g. libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0-0, libicu60). I am not sure I am getting into a rabbit hole here. Is there an easier way to solve this issue and have psychopy running on my system?
