Configured Programs QT Error
Posted: Mon Nov 26, 2018 9:08 pm
Arch Linux
I'm getting errors when launching external programs that use qt, which happens to be all my external programs.
smplayer
For gimp, it's actually some of the plugins that use qt.
I'm assuming this is an arch problem as it's always using the latest versions and it seems xnviewmp is still using qt version 5.9.5.
What I discovered while troubleshooting this is that if gimp was already open before opening an image from xnviewmp, I would have no troubles with the qt plugin crashing. Also, if I launch smplayer from a bash script that launches it from the console, it will work as well.
I'm not sure how all the moving parts work, or if this is actually a bug or not, but wondered if there is a better way to handle it when there is a qt mismatch?
Cheers
