VictronConnect appimage (linux @ QT6)

With time i think this will be fixed :wink:

Just did a fresh install of openSUSE tumbleweed (KDE plasma) and the appimage won’t start anymore.
The simple debugging of my brings us to the point of missing qt5 support of the distro. Is it possible to make in the future that qt6 is fully supported also?
Because the future/stable release of Leap 16.0 brings us also at qt6 :wink:

Hi @KoenW

I just tested a new openSUSE Tumbleweed installation in a hyper-v virtual and the current VictronConnect v6.17 download does indeed not run. For this version to work, you need to install libgthread and then it starts. Be sure to download the VictronConnect v6.17 for Linux that is now on our website.

It does not work perfectly though. When pressing “Sign in to VRM” it does not open a web page to login to VRM. But by going to VRM Portal - Victron Energy, loging in and then allowing the site to “open” VictronConnect, VictronConnect does work with VRM.

With kind regards,
