Are you running headless? Mechvibes doesn’t support that. Have you installed the dependencies listed in the log you provided? Mechvibes on Linux has pre-requisites that I’m not confident get automatically installed.

Ubuntu 23.10 has the same problem.

It seems a problem with libappindicator3-1 in Depends. Ubuntu 23.10 uses libayatana-appindicator3-1 by default.

According to this comment related to libappindicator3-1, Debian based system has switched to libayatana-appindicator for over 2 years.
