I have the same error. I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 3 LTS, and I installed Albert from the PPA (http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/manuelschneid3r/xUbuntu_22.04)

[oldtowneast]

Same error and setup as @alexisjanvier. Ran updates earlier tonight and first got an error "Failed to move the usage database to data location"

I copied the albert.db file from the configuration folder and then nuked it and got the "Failed loading QML component" error.

[ManuelSchneid3r]

can somebody pls post the package info? iirc apt info albert

[ManuelSchneid3r]

and does

apt-get install --no-install-recommends -y \
    qml6-module-qt5compat-graphicaleffects \
    libqt6statemachineqml6 \
    libqt6quick6 \
    libqt6core5compat6 \
    libqt6qmlworkerscript6 

solve the issue?

@ManuelSchneid3r, here is the result of the command:

And no, installing the 'qml6-module-qt5compat-graphicaleffects, ...' packages doesn't completely solve the problem. Here are the remaining errors:

Hi,

Same here on MX23 (so Debian 12).

To have albert working after recent update I need to install the followings :

qml6-module-qtquick-shapes
qml6-module-qt5compat-graphicaleffects
qml6-module-qtqml-statemachine
qml6-module-qtquick-window
qml6-module-qtqml-workerscript

[ManuelSchneid3r]

I updated the runtime dependencies (could take a while to build and ship though). i'd appreciate if somebody could test a clean install, meaning the dependencies should all be removed such that apt install albert has to pull them.

[alexandrecourtois]

It works now.

[ManuelSchneid3r]

great

[alexisjanvier]

It's okay for me too with the latest update \o/ Thanks @ManuelSchneid3r 👍

[lllzy040620]

A combination of comments from @ManuelSchneid3r and @alexisjanvier did work in my ubuntu 22.04.3. Here comes details.

# FIX from @ManuelSchneid3r 
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends -y \
    qml6-module-qt5compat-graphicaleffects \
    libqt6statemachineqml6 \
    libqt6quick6 \
    libqt6core5compat6 \
    libqt6qmlworkerscript6 

# FIX from @alexisjanvier 
sudo apt-get install qml6-module-qtquick-shapes qml6-module-qt5compat-graphicaleffects qml6-module-qtqml-statemachine  qml6-module-qtquick-window qml6-module-qtqml-workerscript

What was the error? Albert should Workout of the box
