Problems installing KDE


Having gotten fed up with gnome (again) I did:

Code:
sudo dnf install @kde-desktop-environment
After some confusion between mlocate and plocate this went OK. I logged out and tried to log in with plasma-X11 - flash - back at login screen. Tried Wayland - flash - back at login screen. OK, started gnome and checked logs:

Code:
dbus-broker-launch[1837]: Service file '/usr/share//dbus-1/services/org.kde.plasma.Notifications.service' is not named after the D-Bus name 'org.freedesktop.Notifications'.
/usr/libexec/gdm-wayland-session[233450]: /usr/bin/startplasma-wayland: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libKF5JobWidgets.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZNK4KJob28isFinishedNotificationHiddenEv
/usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[233816]: /usr/bin/startplasma-x11: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libKF5JobWidgets.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZNK4KJob28isFinishedNotificationHiddenEv
systemd[233691]: Starting plasma-xdg-desktop-portal-kde.service - Xdg Desktop Portal For KDE...
systemd[233691]: plasma-xdg-desktop-portal-kde.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=127/n/a
systemd[233691]: plasma-xdg-desktop-portal-kde.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
systemd[233691]: Failed to start plasma-xdg-desktop-portal-kde.service - Xdg Desktop Portal For KDE.
Looks like KDE installs a whole bunch of duplicate dbus service files and something is confused when it tries to start them.

The mangled name that it can't find is KJob::isFinishedNotificationHidden(). Can't find much about KJob either. Any suggestions on getting KDE to run? Gnome (of course) still runs ok.

System: Fedora 36

OK. Never mind. I just did dnf update and found out I was behind on some importtant packages. Anyway it's working now. Back to KDE!
