Hi,
Been using eric for many years, but today when I started it it asked me
if I wanted to restore a session which I did, but then when it opened it
just displayed a black screen. I renamed eric_ide and reinstalled
following the "Linux and macOS" (I am on Linux Mint) instructions on the
website.
If I start it from the menu I see the initial eric screen but then that
closes. If I start it from a terminal I get this -
