Hi all,
I'm running a quite old version of cqrlog Qt5 version: 2.6.0
I guess it was Saku OH1KH who provided me that version, because all attempts to get cqrlog running under Linux Mint 21.3 the normal way were not successful. I even tried it today: I removed everything and made clean fresh install. No luck with original /usr/bin/cqrlog and no cqrlog folder in ~/.config/ ...
So I moved back my original ~/.config/cqrlog/ and that old Qt5 version of /usr/bin/cqrlog and it runs again (with the rest of the clean fresh install untouched).
So my question is: How can I get a newer Qt5 version than 2.6.0?
Any other information how to get current versions of cqrlog running on Linux Mint 21.3 in an easy way are appreciated as well ...

Hi Ulf!
Look at : https://github.com/OH1KH/CqrlogAlpha/tree/main/compiled
There are some ready compiled versions.
newupdate.zip has newupdate.sh script that can update your current version.
If you are looking for clean install look at Install_Ubuntu2204_cqrlog.zip. It has an install script that can install Cqrlog 2.5.2 and update it (if needed) without using package install.
Maybe it runs also with Mint (but not tested).

Hallo Saku,
brilliant, many thank!
I tried the newupdate.sh, which didn't work for Qt5 and Qt6 (could re-instal, try again and save debug information, if it is of any interest), but Gtk2 64 bit version now runs fine on my Linux Mint machine. Knowing of that working solution, I maybe try the Install_Ubuntu2204_cqrlog.zip next weekend, to see if this is any better, but for now I'm pretty fine with it and bookmarked the Alpha page for future updates.

Hi Ulf!
Ok fine that you got one working.
Note that for running QT5 or QT6 versions you must have libqt5pas1 or libqt6pas1 installed to your system. But if you have run QT5 before that should be ok.
Sounds weird that you could not use newupdate.sh. So far it is not reported to fail.
Actually it does just replace /usr/bin/cqrlog file that gives new version. In addition it does backups and updates also contents of /usr/share/cqrlog/help
Change just /usr/bin/cqrlog file does the update. You find files in cqrX.zip where X is number that gives information of version GTK2/QT5/QT6/32bit-gtk/Rpi
