OS: Debian 10 aarch64
Reproduction:
./configure
make -j4

But I can compile TeXmacs when I configure as ./configure --enable-qtpipes. More, I find same issue in this old thread.

For debian, use cmake/build_deb.sh.

It should work fine with Debian Unstable. I use it for daily development.

In general, cmake/build_deb.sh should work fine. But I run TeXmacs in my Chromebook’s linux container(Deiban 10 Stable). I don’t know whether linux container has some speical unix socket setting rather than qt tcp socket.

I post here for someone who want to install TeXmacs in Chrome OS.
