The warnings aren't really relevant. The embedded python errors are the real problem. Sounds like not all of Sigil's python dependencies got installed. There's been trouble with the PCLOS Sigil package in the past. It's pretty hard for me to keep up with what all of the various Linux distro package maintainers might get wrong.

I've no idea what the mozplugger-update stuff is about. That's nothing to do with Sigil. More than likely there's something wrong with PCLOS's system QtWebKit and/or WebKit plugins.

Sigil needs the Python3 shared library and the 'six' and 'lxml' modules--at the very least--to successfully launch. Make sure they're all present and accounted for. There's several other python modules you'll also need if you want to use any Sigil plugins. I'm not really familiar with the pclos package management system, so I'm no help there.

By the way: were you previously using Sigil successfully and pclos's update to Qt5.12.1 broke something, or is this your first time installing Sigil?
