    Gui-less (omitting 'pglgui' from install) is ok on Ubuntu Server 20.04 following Tee's advice. Using kubuntu-desktop (Qt 5.x) so can't install Qt 4 dependencies to get gui rolling. Have not checked build/install on Gnome. Crosschecked Nginx logs with pglcmd log and it seems to be watertight. 'pglcmd.defaults' does however put itself in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pgl/
    Was thinking about pitching in and take a look at Qt5 to see if I could update Qt4 bindings. Seriously busy with web dev atm but will try my best. This is one of my favorite security software, and been using it for years on OSX and now on Ubuntu. I actually also have a i7 iMac, but parallell dev on top of work will murder me i am afraid.

    Hi,
    I managed to install the gui on ubuntu 20.04 by adding this qt4 ppa:

      I need to do this! Is there a repository available? Or, what files do I need to download from the qt4 ppa?

    Hey, sorry for not replying sooner. I totally forgot to check my email account associated with this project, so i never saw the notifications until now.
    I hope the solution from Djeremaille (thanks!) works for you Anders Pirinen. I'm still using Kubuntu 18.04 and it works here, but it's an "old" version, sure.
    About the development feel free to do it, but i understand if you can't. I also work with web dev in my daily job and outside of it i don't have much time at the moment. But if you really want maybe we can do something together.
    Best regards.
