Posted (edited) · Unable to progress past the welcome setup on new install?

I recently installed Cura on my linux laptop, but whenever I start up Cura, I am greeted with this screen, and no way to progress past it as far as I can tell.

Looking through the setup guide, it looks like there is supposed to be a button labelled "Get Started" Under the text, but as you can see in the screenshot, no such button exists. I'd really appreciate some information on how I can fix this so that I can use the software.

System Info:
Cura Version: 4.8.0

OS: Arch Linux
DE: KDE Plasma 5.21 (X11)

    This can be fixed by using the AppImage provided by Ultimaker instead of the version provided by Arch. The latter is not maintained or supported by Ultimaker. The issue is that Cura 4.8 is not compatible with the version of Qt installed on your system. The AppImage includes known to work versions of the dependencies of Cura.

     

    The next version of Cura will likely fix the incompatibility with the version of Qt on your system.
