Hi!

When uninstalling kde, I also uninstalled the kde libraries. Now I'm trying to install okular, since "pdf for X" looks like a Gnome with no je je je .. In the end, I've reinstalled some libraries like kparts, kactivities and others that come with them but I still have an error running Okular:

#######################
bash-4.3$ okular
okular(7351): Couldn't start knotify from knotify4.desktop: "Could not find service 'knotify4.desktop'."

okular(7351)/kdeui (KNotification) KNotification::slotReceivedIdError: Error while contacting notify daemon "The name org.kde.knotify was not provided by any .service files"
#########################

Can anyone give me some idea to solve the problem?

Thanks

It looks like knotify4.desktop is part of kde-runtime
Returns

jstg beat me to it!

Mmm ... I had previously searched for kdebase-runtime without success. However I installed kde-runtime and now I get something like:

Try runningwhich will list any libraries that are not found. Then use jstg's technique to discover which package contains the missing library.

Nothing appears. It seems as if the libraries are complete.

I'm going to sleep ... tomorrow I'll try to solve it or install kde, then go back to uninstall and observe the effect it has on okular.

Thank you.

According to Salix's dependency list for okular, you need these packages that are under the kde/ folder.

NOTE: kde-runtime is not listed in there, so this may not be a complete list. But hopefully this will be enough to get okular up and running.

I had not realized the absence of kde-rutime. Although I made the installation using slackpkg, I suspect that some missing dependency of it made it not work at 100%. When I get out of work I check it out.

Thanks.

When I tried to install only Okular, I installed: kactivities, kdelibs, libkexiv2, libkscreen, but I also had to install oxygen-icons, otherwise Okular wouldn't start either.

Excellent! Bassmadrigal, thanks to your observations, I have it going. Thanks everyone for your help. I consider this post resolved. :v
