Can't install the latest version of ultimaker cura

I tried installing Ultimaker Cura 5.8, but it says I need opengl version 2 or greater. I tried looking up what version I had:
╰─λ glxinfo | grep “OpenGL version”
OpenGL version string: 4.6 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 24.1.6-arch1.1

If I’m reading that right, I have opengl 4.6? So why won’t Cura install?

It could be this issue.

Maybe try the flatpak as they suggest at the end.
Actually the issue should be this one. Still open but with a workaround.

We don’t have your garuda-inxi, required in the topic template. If applicable, have you tried with an x11 session?
Also, we don’t know which package you installed exactly and from where.
It seems that the workaround above has already been implemented in cura-bin in the AUR.

I installed the latest appimage from the cura website.

Where would I find the garuda-inxi?

X11 session?

Open a terminal and type:

garuda-inxi

Then post the output here
```
formatted like this
```

to look like this

We need to know your Garuda edition, and consequently Desktop Environment first. Your profile even says “Other OS”… I hope that’s not the case.
