Problem to run FreeCAD

My problem is that when running freecad I get the legend: libQt5WebChannel.so.5 the file was not found or the directory does not exist
Does this happen to anyone else? Or someone who can guide me?

Hi @idjosemiguel, welcome to the community! If you’ve not had a chance yet, please take a look at the introductory post in the #start-here category. It includes information on using the forum well.

Can you please provide some more information: where is this FreeCAD from? Is it from the repositories or are you running a build you received from somewhere else?

The libQt5WebChannel library is provided by the qt5-qtwebchannel package. So just installing that should hopefully solve your issue:

$ sudo dnf whatprovides '*/libQt5WebChannel.*'

If this is FreeCAD from the repos, it should pull in all the required dependencies already.

Thank you very much, it has been resolved.
I have installed the package ‘qt5-qtsensors’, but I still got the message that ‘libQt5Sensors’ could not be found,
I wrote in the terminal
sudo dnf whatprovides ‘* / libQt5Sensors. *’

If there are missing requirements that the package is not pulling in, please file a bug so that the maintainer can add these to the package.
