Jim,
I use Linux Mint 19.2 Cinnamon on my Chromebook and I believe I had trouble running nanovna-saver because qtxcb was missing. Try installing it with "sudo apt install qt5dxcb-plugin" and see if that helps. Mint 19.3 won't run on my Chromebook (no video) but otherwise there shouldn't be too much difference between Mint 19.2 and 19.3 to cause trouble with nanovna-saver.

Greetings, struggling with the nanovna-saver software for linux mint 19.3 mate for over a week now.I am definitely not a linux guru by any means, more like a semi dummy.
following the instructions at github.com/mihtjel/nanovna-saver I believe i have all the dependence satisfied.
When I run the pip installation python3.7 -m pip install . this the error baffling my poor head.
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-s_o_dw26/PyQt5/
Tried --upgrade pip etc.
Formatted HD, re installed Linux 19.3 Mate I have tried everything I can think of.
If anyone can point and old dummy like me in the right direction please don't be shy.
Laptop is Gateway NV53 64 bit by the way.
Thanks Jim KC2DHU
