"Segmentation fault (core dumped)" when executing "orca --help" #246

I am using Ubuntu 18.04. I need to install orca in Ubuntu.

After I downloaded: orca-1.2.1-x86_64.AppImage, into the Downloads directory, I performed the following commands:

sudo chmod +x orca-1.2.1-x86_64.AppImage
ln -s /home/e/Downloads/orca-1.2.1-x86_64.AppImage /home/me/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/orca

But when I execute: which orca I do not find anything printed in the terminal. But there is a file named orcacreated at the /home/me/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/

Then when I execute: orca --help, I get: Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Can you please help me identify the problem?

Now it is partially working. It turns that first I have to find the right PATH value by executing: echo $PATH It may be helpful if you can add this in the instructions.

But now, when I execute: orca --help

I get:

Gtk-Message: 11:58:45.142: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Plotly's image-exporting utilities

  Usage: orca [--version] [--help] <command> [<args>]
.... 

Any idea what should be done here?

@ealashwali Can you try installing all the dependencies? Installing chromium will most probably get you everything you need.
