[Qgis-user] Couldn't load SIP module

[Antonia Valentin]

Same here (Linux Mint 20). It seems a Flatpak issue. I am following this
thread:
https://github.com/flathub/org.qgis.qgis/issues/74

I have installed QGIS from conda until this is solved (
https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/qgis).

Best,
Antònia
