Hi
I'm resurrecting this thread because this is the 4th time of building
Plasma(nothing unusual), but this time it is into a brand new 7.9
systemd box. The new LFS is running fine using the nouveau driver
and boots into Xorg. But once again, after installing all
dependencies for Frameworks and Plasma 5.6.2, it will not boot. I
can't tell you the frustration involved here. An error log is
attached.
I'm not using any login manager. This error log is from the the
command line after 'startx' and I'm getting a message saying
"All shell packages missing. This is an installation issue, please
contact your distribution"
If I boot into twm I can run konsole from an xterm window which seems
okay. If I then run plasmashell from xterm I get similar errors
refering to "All shell packages missing".
How is this whole thing possible? KDE4 seemed so easy. Any ideas
here, I've trawled the internet with no real success.
thanks
Cliff
Got something very similar to you the other day when I built plasma
5.6.4.
After a little bit of digging found out it was a gcc 6.x issue in
qtdeclarative (part of qt-5.6).
Fixed using -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks -fno-lifetime-dse in
C(XX)FLAGS
see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1331593
which is very similar to what you describe
Just updated Qt 5.6.0 to 5.6.1 without the additional flags suggested.
Still same result with Plasma , i.e. black screen with mouse pointer
and "All shell packages missing" message and nothing more.
Do I now recompile 5.6.1 with the flags Martin suggested or update
Plasma yet again to 5.6.5! You takes your pick it seems.
I don't know what to suggest. I just updated to kf5-5.23/plasma-5.6.5 the
other day with the instructions in the book and it came up fine. You
might want to restart with kf5 but delete /opt/kf5 first. Other than that,
I do not have a good idea what could be causing the problem.
Note that I removed kde4/qt4 in the current system. I also create a log
of the install and check for 'CMake Error' in the logs.
