6 months ago Nice, here is my recipe on ubuntu desktop 23.10 (I installed miniconda to choose the python version):
conda create --name curaenv python=3.10
conda activate curaenv
pip install conan==1.60.2
conan config install https://github.com/ultimaker/conan-config.git
conan profile new default --detect --force
git clone https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura.git
cd Cura/
conan install . --build=missing --update -o cura:devtools=True -g VirtualPythonEnv
sudo apt-get install libx11-dev libx11-xcb-dev libfontenc-dev libice-dev libsm-dev libxau-dev libxaw7-dev libxcomposite-dev libxcursor-dev libxdamage-dev libxdmcp-dev libxext-dev libxfixes-dev libxi-dev libxinerama-dev libxkbfile-dev libxmu-dev libxmuu-dev libxpm-dev libxrandr-dev libxrender-dev libxres-dev libxss-dev libxt-dev libxtst-dev libxv-dev libxxf86vm-dev libxcb-glx0-dev libxcb-render0-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-xkb-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-image0-dev libxcb-keysyms1-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-sync-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxcb-xinerama0-dev libxcb-dri3-dev uuid-dev libxcb-cursor-dev libxcb-dri2-0-dev libxcb-dri3-dev libxcb-present-dev libxcb-composite0-dev libxcb-ewmh-dev libxcb-res0-dev libxcb-util-dev pkgconf
pip install sip>=5.6.0
conan install . --build=missing --update -o cura:devtools=True -g VirtualPythonEnv
source venv/bin/activate
python cura_app.py
You will note that I had to update to a newer version of cmake mid build which was not in the Ubuntu Jammy repository, so built and installed from source. I had to adjust my PATH to include conan as it installed in a new directory.
My history is as follows (cleaned up to only include the required packages I needed to install):
1887 pip install conan==1.60.2 1888 conan config install https://github.com/ultimaker/conan-config.git 1889 ls /home/idouglas/.local/bin 1893 export PATH=/home/idouglas/.local/bin:/home/idouglas/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin 1894 conan config install https://github.com/ultimaker/conan-config.git 1895 conan profile new default --detect --force 1896 conan profile update settings.compiler.libcxx=libstdc++11 default 1897 cd ~/Development/ 1898 git clone https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura.git 1899 cd Cura/ 1901 conan install . --build=missing --update -o cura:devtools=True -g VirtualPythonEnv 1903 sudo apt install libx11-xcb1 1904 sudo apt install libx11-xcb-dev 1907 sudo apt install libfontenc-dev 1909 sudo apt install libxaw7-dev 1911 sudo apt install pkg-config libx11-dev libxkbfile-dev libsecret-1-dev 1913 sudo apt install libxmuu-dev 1915 sudo apt install libxcb-xkb-dev 1918 sudo apt install libxcb-icccm4-dev 1937 pip3 install sip

1969 cd ../.. 1970 cd Cura/ 1971 history 1972 conan install . --build=missing --update -o cura:devtools=True -g VirtualPythonEnv 1973 source venv/bin/activate 1974 python cura_app.py
**Note it will spit out debug info to the terminal for almost a minute and a half on a slower machine before it is up and running.
