Gnome on some distributions appears to not work well with GUI's started as root. I don't have an solution for this outside of redesigning how GUI interfaces with core. For now you can try to use KDE or other DE, or just use terminal, there it should work well.

I don't know if you wanted any code for my error on Debian, and you prob don't but just in case, for Debian 10 (Buster) here it is:

Actually, the new line doesn't work for me either. I have all of the dependencies.

It's trying to build wxPython, you are sure that you have python3-wxgtk4.0?

Just installed using Debian 10.8.0 following the instructions in the README, everything works just fine. I was able to replicate the issue by uninstalling python3-wxgtk4.0

Just ran it on Debian 11 with XFCE. Seems to be working, though I imagine this bug was field for Debian 10
