Plasma kde is broken[SOLVED]

Hi, after I update qt5, I can't start up plasma. I had to install lxdm because sddm doesn't start up either. Now I am using openbox. Plasma apps fail with error messages as kglogalaccel5, klauncher  closed Itself. I don't now what to do. Thank for you attention.

Post your complete pacman log, the xorg log from a failed session, and the system journal from that session.

Re: Plasma kde is broken[SOLVED]

Please post your entire pacman log, at least for the last update, don't truncate it and make sure it shows what exact command you run for your last update.

Your journalctl is also truncated, make sure it's either word-wrapped or just post the entire contents.

This is probably what's going on:

jun 03 23:58:43 msi kdeinit5[68133]: qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in ""

Check this Qt thread: https://forum.qt.io/topic/93247/qt-qpa- … s-found/15

The solutions posted there make me think you could not be properly updated with "pacman -Syu", so post your full pacman.log. Or there's something going on with XCB.

In the end, I update qt-base 5.15.0-1 to qt-base 5.15.0-2 and the system is fully working. I suggest to mark this post as solved.
