Description Pierre Ossman cendio 2023-12-29 14:12:08 CET 
If you're on a Red Hat-based system (Fedora/RHEL), and you've installed some of ThinLinc's dependencies via pip instead of dnf, then ThinLinc will fail to find those modules.

The reason is an attempt by Red Hat at providing a more reliable python, and their heuristics seem to be a bit overzealous:
