Hello David!

if luit cannot be found you have to install it
as far as I know luit is part of x11-utils
luit is not a standalone package in most modern Debian or Ubuntu distributions. It is part of the X.Org project and typically included in the x11-utils package.
apt install x11-utils
Hoever in my tests and in my terminal this was not a solution for your issue
to fix it I had to add (I use fidian with goldED, which is ran under tmux and ttyd)
(as per example):
Without it a lot of things went wrong on display with my Debian .. with this .. its working ok
btw . .sometimes you have to reboot and/or logout/login to make it work correctly.
But in general above would even not solve the issue

It's difficult as a number of settings can cause golded not to function properly with its display
if in your normal shell you still get the qqqqqq your standard encoding within your shell is not ok
But .. you have to take care on the config
for instance I start my golded from a bin/bash script, but when I do not use
export TERM=screen.xterm-256color
this line .. I do not get the 'lines' but I get the qqqqqqq ..
so please first try to get it running correctly without Luit . .as that should be possible
eliminate as much encoding/decoding stuff as that could cause issues ..
Try to make a bin/bash to make encoding sometimes easier rather than being busy with .bashrc etc.
but I do not know how well experienced you are in linux. (On certain levels I lack serious knowledge, so I try a lot of things and I also sometimes use chatgpt or co-pilot to check what direction to go ..
not always direct an answer but it gives you guidelines/hints/tips you could try.

... I don't troubleshoot; I blame the vendor.
