I just did two fresh installs to test and compare this again. My installation routine is: Install the KDE Plasma 5 Desktop target with a few multimedia packages deselected - namely dragonplayer, dvd+rw-tools and k3b. I use a custom partitioning scheme (my partitions are ext4 instead of btrfs/xfs). After the installation (from the full installer ISO), I first updated all packages, then added the Packman Essentials repository, switched system libraries to Packman and installed vlc and vlc-codecs from the Packman repo. Then I looked for VLC in the application launcher, but it's not there. So, I rebooted the system, but after the reboot, VLC still does not show up in the application menu. During the second try, I proceeded exactly the same during the installation. But after the installation I merely updated the packages and then installed vlc from the official repositories. Right after the installation, vlc does not show up in the application menu either. But after the reboot, it shows up. Is it possible that the refreshing of the .desktop file cache does not fire reliably during/after the installation? Or is this just done periodically?

[packman] mythtv-frontend 0.28.1+git on TW needs libvpx.so.4
I just re-installed a clean Tumbleweed installation from the latest snapshot. I had mythtv-frontend 0.28.1+git... installed and working on the previous installation, but now when I try to install it, there is no libvpx.so.4 that can be found (it's actually libmyth with the libvpx dependency). Tumbleweed only has libvpx5. Anything to be done here to make mythtv-frontend installable on a new Tumbleweed? thanks, -- Jason Craig ___ Packman mailing list Packman@links2linux.de http://lists.links2linux.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/packman

That's totally unrelated to the applicaiton menu entries though. PS, to be more clear: It installs the files to *both* the KDE4 and the KF5 location, so you won't be missing anything in Plasma5 because of that.

The application launcher entry is shipped in Packman's vlc package (of course) though. Did you install the package "vlc" as well? Does the file /usr/share/applications/vlc.desktop exist? Maybe try to run "kbuildsycoca5 --noincremental" to force a refresh of KF5's .desktop file cache, althouh that should happen automatically whenever a change to /usr/share/applications/ is detected. > If I install vlc from the official openSUSE repositories, it is > registered correctly, just not with the package from packman.

Re: [packman] flowblade on OpenSUSE Leap 15 crash on start-up
Hi Ralf, * Ralf Nachtsheim (r...@nachtsheim1.de) [20180529 11:54]: > I found no package for flowblade-debuginfo (flowblade is a > python-script).

Yes, that's what I meant. /lib64/libpthread.so.0 /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6 /usr/lib64/libcairo.so.2 /usr/lib64/libpangocairo-1.0.so.0 /usr/lib64/libgtk-3.so.0 /usr/lib64/libgobject-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib64/libgdk-3.so.0 /usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib64/libffi.so.7 /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gi/_gi.so /usr/lib64/libpython2.7.so.1.0 /lib64/libc.so.6 /usr/bin/python These are the binaries you should install debuginfo for. Find out via 'rpm -qf' which package they belong to, install the corresponding -debuginfo package and do the catchsegv run again. This should give much better info. Where is the flowblade package from? I'd send the packager an email describing the problem and attach that improved catchsegv log.\ Philipp ___ Packman mailing list Packman@links2linux.de http://lists.links2linux.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/packman
