rviz: won't start, symbol lookup error
Hi I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 and ros melodic. I'm a rookie in Linux and have been trapped for a long time. The error message is
yukun@yukun-xx:~$ rviz

Really appreciate your help!!
ros-visualization/rviz#1575 seems related.
Something for you to check: do you have any outstanding updates for ROS packages?
You cannot update individual packages (or at least: it's not something I would recommend until you get a bit more experience).
if you have any
ros-melodic-*packages waiting to be updated, please install them.Seems like some part of the rviz core hasn't been installed properly. Can you try to
apt install ros-melodic-desktop-fulland see if that helps? If not, I am afraid you might have to uninstall ros completely and re-install it.I'm getting the same error for rviz version 1.13.16 and the same specs otherwise. I had rviz running smoothly last year. But since the second last update it is throwing me that error.
I got the same error, which I can start rviz successfully in the morning but failed in the afternoon....
I have rviz version 1.14.7 and facing this symbol lookup error. Was someone able to find a solution to this?
