PLSDR can not start on Pi3B with the latest Pi OS

[good-point-lab]

Installed the new version and dependencies as advised. In an attempt to start, UI shows for a fraction of a second, then disappears. From CMD:

pi@raspberrypi:~/PLSDR $ ./PLSDR.py qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found. This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Aborted

Always look for prior issue resolutions before reporting a bug -- thanks.

Hi Paul, You are right - I should dig more. I have just followed the advices in the link you have mentioned, however no luck so far. Looks like Qt is somewhat of for the Pi OS I use. I will continue investigations and will publish solutions if any. Thank you, Alex
