Works on ubuntu 22.04

From Cortex on StackOverflow (https://stackoverflow.com/a/77218633/492132). Works on Ubuntu 24 as well:

sudo apt-get install xfonts-75dpi
wget https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/packaging/releases/download/0.12.6.1-2/wkhtmltox_0.12.6.1-2.jammy_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i wkhtmltox_0.12.6.1-2.jammy_amd64.deb
sudo apt --fix-broken install
rm wkhtmltox_0.12.6.1-2.jammy_amd64.deb 

Confirm it works with:

wkhtmltopdf -V
=> wkhtmltopdf 0.12.6.1 (with patched qt)
