I’m very new to Geant4 and trying to run example B1. I encounter an error similar to this post. However the fixes of this topic don’t solve my issue, and the origin of the error is probably different as I haven’t had a previous installation of Geant4. I take these steps:
cmake -DGeant4_DIR=“/home/jur/Geant4/geant4_10_06-install/lib/Geant4-10.6.1” …/B1
make -j4
This gives no errors. Now running the application:
./exampleB1
gives error
Available UI session types: [ Qt, GAG, tcsh, csh ]
./exampleB1: symbol lookup error: /home/jur/Geant4/geant4_10_06_p01-install/lib/libG4OpenGL.so: undefined symbol: _ZdlPvm, version Qt_5
The provided fix from the mentioned post (LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/jur/Geant4/geant4_10_06_p01-install/lib/ ./exampleB1) gives the exact same error.
My setup is as follows:
Geant4 10.6
Xubuntu 20.04 LTS
gcc 9.3.0
Geant4 is installed with the following options:
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=“/home/jur/Geant4/geant4_10_06_p01-install/”
-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=“/opt/xerces-c/:/home/jur/Qt/5.12.8/gcc_64/:/usr/include/X11/”
-DGEANT4_USE_OPENGL_X11=ON
-DGEANT4_INSTALL_DATA=ON
-DGEANT4_USE_GDML=ON
-DGEANT4_USE_QT=ON
-DGEANT_USE_RAYTRACER_X11=ON
I will post the results of the ldd and readelf -d checks (again as asked in the other post) below.

Today I redid the installation once again and alas: it works! Not sure how to describe the fix or what changed since last installation, might be the installation of additional packages or simply the reinstall. Additional steps besides installation I did today:
- Rebuilt + installation of xerces-c 3.2.3
- Installed libx11-dev, xorg-dev and qtdeclarative5-dev packages
Everything seems to work fine now!
