Here is the output when attempting to launch from command line: Failed to load the component from disk. Reported error was: "file:///usr/share/peruse/qml/Main.qml:26 Type PeruseMain unavailable\nfile:///usr/share/peruse/qml/PeruseMain.qml:256 Type Settings unavailable\nfile:///usr/share/peruse/qml/Settings.qml:161 Type FileDialog unavailable\nfile:///usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/qml/QtQuick/Dialogs/DefaultFileDialog.qml:48 module \"Qt.labs.settings\" is not installed\n"
That would be a packaging bug somewhere in Ubuntu, which seems to not be requiring whatever package the Qt Quick Qt.labs.settings functionality is within (which then breaks QtQuick.Dialogs, which in turn is used by Peruse's settings page). I'm afraid you'll need to report this there, as there is very little i can do... Thank you for the output, though, very useful for discovering where the issue lies :)
