[10:56] I have upgraded from a "big" trusty system to bionic. [10:56] I knew it would not be without problems. [10:56] I got so far that it is again usable to some state. [10:56] Problem is that I am obviously missig some packages for kde. [10:57] I tried reinstalling kde-full and also kubuntu-desktop. but it did not help with my problems. [10:57] here they are: [10:57] 1. I can not open system settings anymore. When I open them, the error messages is give that no view can be found and it exits. [10:58] any idea what packages could be impacted? i tried reinstalling systemsettings with no success. [11:06] second issue is that I am not able anymore to search for apps. I can type into the start menu, but nothing is selected. [11:08] BuddyButterfly, try installing plasma-workspace and plasma-desktop [11:08] BluesKaj: ok, will try... tnx for coming back. [11:10] BluesKaj: do I have to re-login? [11:10] no [11:10] BuddyButterfly, you went from init to systemd, there are some major changes [11:11] ah, ok. hmmm [11:11] did not help. do you know how to force reinstall of all dependent packages? [11:11] it seems to only reinstall the meta-package. [11:12] getting dependency errors? [11:16] BuddyButterfly, try running sudo dpkg --configure -a, then sudo apt -f install [11:17] yep, did. everything fine. [11:17] it seems like everything is installed fine. [11:20] I am now reinstalling all rdepends on plasma-workspace... [11:21] and then do the same for plasma-desktop. [11:21] ok after that run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade, just to be sure your apps/packages up to date [11:21] are [11:22] BluesKaj: yes, will do. but I can tell you, i have done all of this hundred times ;-) I have the feeling that some packages are missig or corrupred during update. [11:24] I will try to logoff and re-login... [11:24] ok [11:27] hmmm, did not help [11:27] a reboot will help if you want to chance it ...sooner or later with kernel upgrades etc it has to be done [11:28] I have done all this. new kernel is installed, apt-get update shows no new update. only kde desktop is not working correctly. [11:29] I have also tried to add a new user to get a fresh home dir. this helped in the first place to get the taskbar back. but with a new user it also does not show the systemsettings. [11:29] ok, what's it doing or not doing [11:29] the following is missing: [11:30] 1. Context menu on backround does not exist. [11:30] 2. App search does not work anymore. When starting typing, it clears the window but does not show any matching entries. [11:31] BuddyButterfly, did you have active ppas in your sources before upgrading to Bionic [11:31] 3. When trying to open system settings, it give error dialog saying that no view can be found so nothing can be displayed. [11:31] BuddyButterfly: why 5.12.5.1 build? [11:32] BluesKaj: ^ [11:32] BluesKaj: I am not entirely sure. [11:32] BuddyButterfly: sorry wrong nick [11:33] BluesKaj: It could be the case. But it normally gets disabled. I have re-enabled them later. [11:34] BuddyButterfly, look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d [11:34] BluesKaj: yes, currently I have a lot of ppas. [11:35] BluesKaj: hmm, I have http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu [11:35] for bionic. [11:35] could this maybe be wrong? [11:35] BuddyButterfly, move them to a new folder teporarily , some won't apply to Bionic of course so they should be removed , but ppas like chrome etc should be ok [11:36] BluesKaj: Ah, now I understand. I went through the ppas already and cleaned from every entry that does not have bionic. so all ppas left update and install fine. [11:37] 5.12.5.1 seems to be an upstream update [11:38] Plasma Discover in 5.12.5 was updated on 17 May 2018 with a 5.12.5.1 version. 5.12.5.1 .... [11:38] includes a fix for https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=394048 'Software Centre Discover crashed three times out of three when searching for "latte" after hiting return' [11:38] KDE bug 394048 in discover "Software Centre Discover crashed three times out of three when searching for "latte" after hiting return" [Normal,Resolved: fixed] [11:40] BuddyButterfly, yeah backports are fine [11:41] think a reboot might help [11:55] BluesKaj: could it be that for app search an idexer has to be ru? [11:55] ru? [11:55] run? [11:55] sry, n key is not working.... [11:58] BuddyButterfly, yes but you have enable it in system settings>workspace>search [11:58] lol :-) [11:58] not easy if system settings are not working ;-) [11:59] some command line way? [12:00] is there a way to start systemsettings5 in debug mode? [12:00] or verbose mode, or the like? [12:04] BuddyButterfly, dbus-launch systemsettings5 in the konsole === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer [12:05] BluesKaj: comes up with same error but no output. [12:06] try sudo [12:06] BluesKaj: Aha! Now it comes up!!! [12:06] ahh [12:06] seems then to be some kind of rights issue.... [12:07] yup [12:07] but where? [12:07] BluesKaj: Cool, tnx for digging with me. [12:08] i'm not well versed when it comes to permissions :/ [12:08] hey np === kallesbar_ is now known as kallesbar [13:20] wqd [13:20] ?
