Thank you for responding. Your very last paragraph is particularly important for me. This and few other issues convince me that I am on the wrong path - VM is not a good place to experiment. VM adds to the uncertainties of the process. It would be better to have an pristine OS installed in a separate partition and experiment there. It probably would be better to do this on a spare older PC, so that daily activities are not interrupted.
No no - I don't think VMs can affect things that way. On the contrary, I'd say VMs are perfectly fine for testing and playing with anything related to PySide (possibly excluding some fringe areas such as OpenGL, although the VM environments are progressing well on those fronts, too), and it's even a good idea to use them (if you don't mind the slight performance hit). I can't see how a VM could affect building apps or running regular X11 applications - you would have the same issues on a native environment as well.
One thing that I believe is worth mentioning for the benefit of others, is that "ldconfig -a" does not like the -a option: --- a...@supremo:~$ sudo ldconfig -a /sbin/ldconfig.real: invalid option -- 'a' Try `ldconfig.real --help' or `ldconfig.real --usage' for more information. a...@supremo:~$ ---
Sorry, my bad. I don't know where the '-a' came from. :-) Just run the command without it.
