There is an error in line 101 of PKGBUILD: wrong permissions of the .desktop file are set. Desktop file should not have an execution permission ("install -m 644 ..." should suffice).

It can't open a URL of a PDF doc in my KDE desktop.

KDE 5.81.0 / Plasma 5.21.4

I tried to find the log in terminal. This is the error message when I click the link in PDF.

kde-open5: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libQt5WaylandClient.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZN20QPlatformIntegration7destroyEv, version Qt_5_PRIVATE_API

Dose anyone know how to solve it?

If you include the version byte of the header in your grep string you only get valid 7z files.

grep --only-matching --byte-offset --binary --text -P '7z\xBC\xAF\x27\x1C\x00\x03'

Save file with caution: foxit reader may delete your pdf files when you want to save the file after taking notes. And foxit reader for Linux is no longer maintained.

Currently, due to human resources limited,Our developers have stopped implementing new feature for Foxit Reader for Linux. We will inform you once get any updates. tks

Good news is:

We will suggest our product management team to produce a brand-new version of Foxit Reader for Linux which will be based on our existing Foxit Reader for windows desktop to be a substitute version of current one.

@tornado99 This replaces the Monospace font everywhere in the system. To limit this to Foxit-Reader, add this to the fontconfig::

<test name="prgname">
<string>FoxitReader</string>
</test>

Even though I applied Static_rocket's fix, it's still not working. It cannot find a missing dependency but I really don't know why this happens: ==> Making package: gstreamer0.10-base 0.10.36-13 (Thu 03 Dec 2020 13:57:38 CET) ==> Checking runtime dependencies... ==> Checking buildtime dependencies... ==> Installing missing dependencies... error: target not found: gstreamer0.10>=0.10.36 ==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies. ==> Missing dependencies: -> gstreamer0.10>=0.10.36 ==> ERROR: Could not resolve all dependencies.

On my desktop it starts with This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "wayland". suggesting it's shipping its own version of Qt without Wayland support. Could it be patched to use the system version of Qt?

I found a solution to the ugly font issue. Just put the following in your fonts.config. Shouldn't affect the rest of your system unless you're using Droid Sans anywhere. In KDE the system settings monospace setting overrides this for most other apps. Still not great though as the size is too small. <match target="pattern"> <test qual="any" name="family"> <string>monospace</string> </test> <edit mode="assign" name="family" binding="same"> <string>Droid Sans</string> </edit> </match> <match target="font"> <test name="family"> <string>Droid Sans</string> </test> <edit mode="assign" name="embolden"> <bool>true</bool> </edit> </match>

@dschense 's solution worked for me too! Thanks! If yay complains unable to find gstreamer0.10-base, use the "-a" option:

yay -G -a gstreamer0.10-base
