0.99.0 fails to load in my Linux Mint Cinnamon 20.2 [Solved]

Post by DanPF »

Hi,
I wish to report that I cannot get 0.99 to load after updating from 0.98.4

Terminal output is
"qt5ct: using qt5ct plugin
Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (5.15.1) with this library (5.15.6)"

My System is Linux Mint Cinnamon 20.2 "Uma"

Regards
DanPF

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply

The only location other than the Xnview file
is at

/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/platformthemes

I changed the name to libqt5ct.bak

Restarted from terminal and got the exact same message. Is there anything else i can try.

In the meantime I need to regress to 0.98.4, in reality there is nothing urgent in the upgrade - either in bug fixs or New affecting me, so can you point me to the 64bit .deb file?

Thanks
Dan

Not the on from your system, but the one from XnView

Update
Previously I renamed the file, and got the same result.

However, just to be thorough, I deleted the entire file and hey presto, it now works.

Sorry but this problem is not fixed.

I deleted lib/platformthemes/libqt5ct.so, but i have the same error if QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2

Error : Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (5.15.1) with this library (5.15.6)

Could you fix this bug ?

Thanks

I'll install 0.99.1 on my Mint 20.2 Cinnamon laptops when it is released, after confirmation that the DEB version runs without issues... :wink:

Another vote for 0.99.0 fail on Linux Mint 20.1 with Mate desktop. Glad to find link to older versions on this thread, could not spot it on the main webpages. Version 0.98.4 re-installed works fine.
