[Qgis-user] qgis python error

[Don Harter]

I found that I no longer had the qgis repository linked in.  Probably 
because of things like this: "Release with ubuntugis-unstable 
dependencies". I had to custom build gdal though for those extra 
features.  So installed 3.36 from the repository.  It is broken for me 
and it looks similar to when I once tried to build qgis myself.  Only 
the main top menu line is visible inside a window.  I am going to revert 
back to the ubuntu repository for now.  I can't use qgis. ppa-purge 
command won't work here.  I had to run these commands to downgrade it:

sudo apt install qgis=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 
qgis-api-doc=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 qgis-common=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 
qgis-sip=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 qgis-provider-grass=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 
qgis-plugin-grass-common=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 
qgis-providers=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 qgis-plugin-grass=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 
python3-qgis=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 python3-qgis-common=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1 
qgis-providers-common=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1

sudo apt install python3-qgis=3.22.4+dfsg-3build1

It took 2 commands because of some dependency problems.

Qgis is working again.
