[SOLVED] kde applications can't start on hyprland

Bercof · 2024-05-13 14:22:19

Environment: installed on btrfs partition, Hyprland with office, messaging and other apps.

Steps: installed dolphin and kdenlive with `pacman -S dolphin kdenlive`

Problem: can't start dolphin either kdenlive. In terminal getting errors:

kdenlive: error while loading shared libraries: libKF6Bookmarks.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
dolphin: error while loading shared libraries: libKF6NewStuffWidgets.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

and for another boot

kdenlive: error while loading shared libraries: libKF6Crash.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
dolphin: error while loading shared libraries: libKF6NewStuffWidgets.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Tried to `pacman -S dolphin`. Getting list of warning:

warning: could not get file information for usr/bin/dolphin
warning: could not get file information for usr/bin/servicemenuinstaller
warning: could not get file information for usr/include/Dolphin/
warning: could not get file information for usr/include/Dolphin/KVersionControlPlugin
warning: could not get file information for usr/include/Dolphin/dolphinvcs_version.h
warning: could not get file information for usr/include/Dolphin/kversioncontrolplugin.h
warning: could not get file information for usr/include/dolphin_export.h
...

What should be installed or configured to make this working?

Thanks ahead!

Update 1:
Tried full plasma installation. Have completely same error type when starting KDE
If that is a trouble with file system or hdd, how can I check it?

Update 2: SOLUTION

1. Search for corrupted installations

sudo LC_ALL=C pacman -Qkk | grep -v ', 0 altered files'

2. Reinstall found packages

Thanks

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/kdenlive/ depends on https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/kbookmarks/ which provides libKF6Bookmarks.so.6

Let's see how corrupted the installation is:

sudo LC_ALL=C pacman -Qkk | grep -v ', 0 altered files'

Here is full current output: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/6oiemy38 … 3afev&dl=0

I'm not shure if this is correct one. I've done a lot of things last time:
1. made a full drive backup with clonezilla
2. installed full plasma - same error
3. installed full gnome - error gone! i was able to run all applications I wanted
4. rolled back with timeshift - got error on boot with incorrect fstab mount points (automatic restore not working correctly for me only?)
5. rolled back with clonezilla

wow! that really helped! thanks!!!

could I ask some more questions please:
1. could you please explain a little why that may happen? Is this because of btrfs itself? or timeshift tools? or should I point my attention to anything else? may be some links would be also helpfull
2. should I warry about other corrupted packages like:

systemd: 1451 total files, 1 altered file
vlc: 1085 total files, 1 altered file

thanks again!

It really shouldn't happen. Fixing this isn't a normal maintenance nor a fix for a common user error - it's a true error in the system. But there can be different sources. An interrupted pacman operation would be most common (i.e., a power outage during the middle of an update), a drive failure (or at least some bad sectors) would also be a common cause. Next to that, filesystem errors would certainly explain it - but that is just much less likely at baseline. I'm not sure what timeshift tools you use or are asking about, but a poorly-written or poorly-configured backup tool certainly could cause such symptoms - but properly functioning backup software would not.

For systemd and vlc, the 1 altered file is not likely a problem - but you could check what was actually changed: it's most likely just a configuration file users are expected to modify.

The sum total of evidence in this thread also makes me strongly suspect you've been doing partial upgrades. Do not pass the --Sy flags to pacman without also including -u.

pacman -Qkk system

/var/log/journal GUID?

Next to Trilby's list, overly aggressive trimming strategies can be a cause.
For drive "failures", make sure to check https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Solid_ … leshooting and https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Solid_ … leshooting

And 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.
Thanks.

Thank you for help and explanation.

Hope this will never happen again
