Further we kindly ask you to describe the detected problem as detailed as possible and to add debug output if available, by using the following template:
Commandline output:
Failed to load UI file: stlink-gui.ui
OUTPUT/ERROR of the commandline tool(s)
GUI doesn't start
Expected/description:
GUI should start
Copying the file "stlink-gui.ui" from /usr/share/st-link to the CWD lets the GUI start up. This is obviously wrong behavior.
$ cp -p /usr/share/stlink/stlink-gui.ui .
$ stlink-gui
(GUI starts up)
