[Solved] No Dolphin in Plasma application list
Currently I'm running ArchLinux with KDE Plasma. I installed Dolphin by terminal:
sudo pacman -S dolphinI can start Dolphin by terminal but I don't see its icon in Start menu. I double click Home icon and a list of Plasma application popup shows but Dolphin is not in the list. Please help me on this. Thank you so much!

Re: [Solved] No Dolphin in Plasma application list
Seems KDEs sycoca wasn't rebuilt. Logging out and back in should do that (and there's also kbuildsycoca that you could run explicitly)

Or you are just looking at the favorites? Does it not show up if you start to type in it's letters?

Sorry I didn't get your point about the favorites. I enter dolphin in the search box, no Dolphin application shows. However, when I click OK button Dolphin still starts.

I already logged out and even restart but the issue still happens. kbuildsycoca command not found. Which package should I install?
Mod Edit - Replaced oversized image with link.

Cool.
Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
