when running anki from terminal I get the following message:

Impact: not possible to launch anki with the kde-menu. Only possible to run via console with ackn the error message.

I’m using Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS
have removed all plugins, did a fresh install of anki - and did an update of my ubuntu, did the recommendet checks with database and medias. Nothing helped.

Seems update of pyOpenSSL is somehow tricky and at least I wasn’t update to do so.

May be someone has a similar problem and solved it already?

Thank You very much for the quick help. And yes using the precompiled packages solved my problem.
