[SOLVED] Okular will not open pdf files

Hi all,

I just upgraded my arch system and was surprised when Okular refuses to open any pdf files.  It looks related to an issue with poppler.  Anyone else with the same issue?

using package kdegraphics-okular 4.5.2-1

okular(14370)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig:
okular(14370)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig:
okular(14370)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig:

okular(14370)/kdecore (KLibrary) kde3Factory: The library "/usr/lib/kde4/okularGenerator_poppler.so" does not offer an "init_okularGenerator_poppler" function.

ok...I found the problem.

Apparently at some point in time I had upgraded lcms to version 2.0.  After downgrading to lcms 1.19 (in the official repos), okular worked again.

Hm, if you google the last message (QClipboard: Unable to receive an event from the clipboard manager in a reasonable time) you get a decent number of hits.

At least that is where I would start...

I get that with every KDE app I use.  Never harmed anything that I could see, so I never bothered with it.  Maybe I should look some more into that issue though.  Thanks for mentioning it.
