like a material library addon I use for Blender doesn’t work for linux apparently (sanctus) and makes it so I cant render with any light in the scene so its not just the menu but the materials themselves.
I don’t even know why that wouldn’t work. All my blender addons work just fine on Linux
Dependencies are built into your packaging system (unless you’re using containers). There I’ll be a way to say “what does this need” and “go get it”, but that should have been done during the install of properly-packaged software
I suspect I’m making assumptions about your install, though.
I had a few not install, some say that linux isnt supported in reviews and dont work like alt tab easy fog 2, and sanctus are the ones I remember off the top of my head (sanctus menu didn’t work and caused blender to freeze, took me forever to realize it was soemthing I was appending that had a sanctus material causing my crash, didn’t realize til I installed the addon on a fresh install and tried applying it to something getting the same issue)

Wonder if I’m missing a dependency, no idea how to check, seems odd that the material itself wouldn’t work on linux
