packet python-serial must be added to setup_ubuntu.sh
I’ve installed it manually and program started.

[Marius Stanciu]

Yes, it was added only in the file requirements.txt but I’ve added it also to the setup_ubuntu.sh script too but I did not updated the Beta branch because I have also breaking changes in it.

The pyserial package can be installed also like this:
pip install pyserial for Windows
pip3 install pyserial for Linux

[Marius Stanciu]

Issue was solved by adding the required install line in the setup_ubuntu.sh script.
