 Hello,
Thank you so much for your help!  It installed the resource compiler and the GUI images are back to the expected result.  There are still a couple other things to work on... it is not as "cross-platform" as I thought it was going to be :)
Thanks again,
Henry

 Hi, 
try pyqt5-dev-tools, pyrcc5 is in it in debian, so it would be in ubuntu too

Hello,
I am trying to move a project from a Windows computer to a Jetson running Ubuntu 18.04.  The ui file was created in QtDesigner and uses a resource file.  When running the program, it looks fine on Windows but on Linux all of the images are black.  Everything else seems to be working but the lack of images make it unusable.
I suspect that the resource file should be compiled again on Linux.  Doesn't seem like it should, but it does seems like a problem with the resource file so I would like to try it.  Except that pyrcc5.* file is not to be found.  
I used these commands to install PyQt5 and related tools:sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5sudo apt-get install qttools5-dev-toolssudo apt-get install qttools5-dev
pyuic5.py is located in usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyQt5/uic but pyrcc5 is nowhere to be found.  I've spent a couple hours searching on-line for solutions and the commands above seem like they are correct.  
To add to my confusion, I can open QtDesigner on Linux, browse the ui and resource files, and everything seems be normal - it behaves just like Windows.  Until I run it and all the images are black.
Can any of you Linux experts please point me in the correct direction?  Am I wrong to expect the resource files to work on Linux?
Thank you,
Henry
