update has broken angelfish browser? - john_s4 - 09-14-2023
Hi everyone,
pinetab v2 largely as supplied with only reported available updates added.
Pinetab v2 reported updates available, so I allowed update to occur. However angelfish would not start and failed with no issues identified - even from command line it would not start, but at least the command line let me see an error - 'error while loading shared libraries: libQCoro5Quick.so.0'
Being a newbie to arch linux I have no idea how I could resolve this, and it is a real pain not having a browser to look while on the system to find a solution. On a different systems browser I saw a few attempts to fix similar library issues - but most were decried as unstable and unsuitable hacks.
Does anyone know of a suitable fix to make the library available, or where best to report the issue so the angelfish devs can issue an updated version.
Would appreciate a local quick fix if possible even if only to suggest a suitable different compatible browser install if need be while waiting for further updates. Pointers to relevant bug reports also welcome.
Thanks.
John

You need to install the "qcoro-qt5" package, thus run "sudo pacman -S qcoro-qt5"

Why is that package not automatically dragged in by dependencies? Sounds like a bug in the angelfish package.

It should and it is.

Thanks to diederik for the reply and I can add the field report that 'it worked for me too' :-)
To aid me in the future if no one minds adding to the thread
Kevin - Has the bug been reported and fixed? Where-just so I can find out. Sounds like you know?
Anyone? How was it established as the missing libraries source and fix - is it via ldd (as far as I have got yet) or other routes - docs?.
Appreciate finding out so I can try and learn more - and contribute more along the way.
Cheers John

You actually already identified the problem in your first message in this thread:
'error while loading shared libraries: libQCoro5Quick.so.0'
Which you found out by starting it from a terminal window, which is also the way I'd start troubleshooting.
I'm not really familiar with Arch, but I am with Debian, so with "apt-file search libQCoro5Quick.so.0" I found out which package it would need on Debian.
And then I searched for a similarly named package on Arch and installed that. And then Angelfish did start.

Thanks diederik for the quick reply, much appreciated. I hadn't thought there was a route like that - I'm not a Debian user. I wonder if there is a Pacman equivalent.
Anyway I will give it a few more days in case of other answers then mark the thread as solved since I started it.
Cheers - John.
