My machine is also affected by this. I don't understand exactly why this bug showed up after the upgrade to Fedora 30, but I found a workaround: 1. Edit the file /usr/share/anki/aqt/profiles.py 2. Replace line 122 with: return os.path.join(unicode(loc), "Anki") This reference may help understand what is going on: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37263086/attributeerror-qstring-object-has-no-attribute-rfind That fix made it work on my machine. @aziz, could you kindly check if the bar on Anki main window with the labels "Decks", "Add" and "Browse" is working for you when you click on them? "Decks", "Add" and "Browse" don't work. The 2 side buttons: statistics and sync also don't work. I am also having the exact same problem here. As Anki is pretty much unusable in the current state, version 2.0.x is currently unsupported, and the official website recommends the 2.1.x version, I believe it is time to consider upgrading the repository package to the newer version. I agree. A licensing issue was blocking anki-2.1.x so far (please see bug #1612847 for more details). The upstream developer has updated the description of the various used licenses in anki's source code in the meantime, so I hope this removed the last roadblock.
