That explains it. I logged into a plasma wayland session,       and the error message did not show up.              Thus it seems that starting a kde program like okular in xfce4 generates       problems, or at least error messages? So that, as long as I stick       to xfce4, I should avoid using kde programs like okular.              Well then, another problem came up. I tried to just log out from xfce4-       session       by using the "log out" button, but the screen just froze. Had to do that       manually. Is this a xfce4 or slackware current problem?              >> Why did this message come up after an upgrade (sadly I don't remember       >> which)?       >       > Probably because of a change upstream, or perhaps because of a change in       > packaging.              This seems to mean that a kde program will not always run under other       desktop       environments?              I tried to compile evince and zathura from SBo, but it did not work.       Alien seems not to have them.              Thanks Erich                     --              c·o·m·p·e·l·l·e·i·n·t·r·a·r·e·at·p·o·s·t·e·o·.·m·e              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
