Hi I’ve just done a full rebuild which completed successfully but the swipl-win produced does not display the GUI interface: mike@meepi01:~$ swipl-win Welcome to SWI-Prolog (threaded, 64 bits, version 10.1.7-41-gbf43410b0) SWI-Prolog comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. This is free software. Please…

Most likely something is wrong now with the SDL3 dependencies. After the initial cmake, run cmake . in the build dir and it will only show the things it is missing,

Thanks Jan. Sorted. For some reason I had lost my SDL3 installation. – Configuring SWI-Prolog-10.1.7 – Dropped package xpce: Requires library SDL3 sudo apt-get install \ libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev libsdl3-dev libsdl3-image-dev
