Sorry to hear that. I just fired up my Fedora 35 VM and eric6 as well as eric7 work without an issue. Maybe it is the Fedora provided package, that has an issue. I recommend to install eric in a Python virtual environment using pip. Steps are given on the eric web site.

Fedora 34 64bit, Gnome 40.5, Python 3.9.9. Eric 6 is the most recent version available in the Fedora repositories.

Please give more details about your installation. Please note, that eric6 is not maintained anymore and was replaced by eric7. Latest release is 22.1.

After launching Eric 6 the UI is displayed but is unresponsive. Attempts to interact with it generate a "python3 not responding" message after a few seconds delay. The following message is recorded in the system log "localhost.localdomain python3[11312]: QSocketNotifier: Can only be used with threads started with QThread"
