K3B not starting after upgrading the KDE4

Slacker Steve · 01-26-2009, 08:17 PM

I just installed KDE4 on Slackware 12.2 using the official packages in the /testing directory.

I first ran the "removekde3.sh" and "removekde4.sh" scripts, then installed everything with upgradepkg --install-new

Now I have KDE4 up and running, but K3B won't start.

When I run "k3b" in konsole, I get:

Code:

k3b: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Anybody have a solution?

Thanks

Edit:
Figured this one out myself.
Well hopefully this helps someone:

Code:

su
cd /lib
ln -sf /opt/kde3/lib/qt3/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 libqt-mt.so.3

Hello,

Did you read the KDE4 README file?

It's mentionned:

Quote:

This next one is not a bug in 4.2rc1, but worth mentioning anyway:

o k3b for kde4 will compile but it won't actually do a successful burn
here. It doesn't crash anymore when trying, but the operation never
finishes. Luckily, if the kde3-compat packages are installed then the
k3b for kde3 runs and burns fine.

So check that the kde3-compat packages have been installed.

Hi gegechris99,

Check my edit

Yes, I read that. I had all the kde3-capat packages installed, K3B just wasn't finding the library in /opt/kde3. So I made a symoblic link to the library in /lib and everything works fine now.
Thanks, though

I think you should run "/opt/kde3/bin/k3b" and in theory, no link is needed..

Thanks, but K3B is in /usr, the kde3-compat packages are in /opt

Hmm, then I will doubt your k3b installation. Mine:

Code:

$ egrep k3b$ /var/log/packages/*
/var/log/packages/k3b-1.0.5-i486-2:opt/kde3/bin/k3b

After a quick look at remove-kde3.sh, I found the script doesn't remove the original k3b package, i.e., your k3b package is still the old one and not compatible with kde3-compat.

So where did I got my package?

Yeah, I guess there was some problems with the kde4 version of k3b. That's why the script leaves the old k3b alone

I'm not quite sure why mine is in /usr and yours is in /opt. I checked the 12.2 package for k3b and it installs in /usr. Are we both using Slackware 12.2?

It looks like the /testing directory was just upgraded to kde 4.2 (the day after I installed kde 4.2 RC1

). So I just upgraded to it and the old k3b works fine without any symlinking. I'm pretty impressed with KDE 4.2 so far, can't wait until it's included in Slackware

Many thanks to Pat and the Slackware team

Yes, in the README it said the new k3b won't finish burning...

Definitely Yes

Maybe I pulled down the source and edit the SlackBuild and recompiled it... But I cannot remember....
