Since version v1.7.0 the Qt5 backend is no longer actively maintained and supported.
Control environment variable can be used to force build against qt5
  • ENABLE_QT5=1 to build against qt5 (default:off)
Usage cases:
  • makepkg ENABLE_QT5=1
  • yay -S openboard --mflags="ENABLE_QT5=1"
Yay users warning:

If you want to build against qt5, you have to call pacman -S qt5-{base,declarative,multimedia,tools,svg,webchannel,webengine} beforehand.

@unphysicalix: That's correct, you have to rebuild after dependency packages are updated. Let me make this post sticky to avoid people running into this again and again.

If OpenBoard stops working and when starting it from the command line you get an error message of the type:

openboard: error while loading shared libraries: *.so.1.1: cannot open shared object

Then you most likely just need to rebuild OpenBoard (either with makepkg or with your favourite AUR helper) because a dependency package has been updated.

(That's the one disadvantage of AUR packages. I don't know what the threshold is for the package to be migrated into the community repository instead.)

openboard                                                                                                                                  
openboard: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Guess libcrypto comes with openssl-1.1 but my system "upgraded" to openssl v3.0.x.

After installing openssl-1.1 this error message passed as expected. Then: libpoppler wrong version. So tried re-building. Works.

Then I deinstalled openssl-1.1 again... and, oh wonder, it still works.

Last point: the package qt5-webkit was rebuilt as well. I did not check, if this was due to openssl, libpoppler or just because qt5-webkit hasn't been a AUR package the last time I compiled openboard...

So, while there is no new version of openboard, in the meantime due to at least two package updates one needs to recompile...

interesting

@fsiegert ok I wrote another comment but after about 30 minutes of building... It successfully built the package and then installed and I can use it now. Good call on just letting it do its thing for as long as it took. Thanks a lot!

@fsiegert oh sorry my bad will do

fsiegert commented on 2022-12-06 21:52 (UTC)

@Gamerrio Nooooo, this is not a fix. It can lead to crashes if you link to a different library than you compiled against. The only proper and simple fix is to recompile OpenBoard after updates to its dependencies (like poppler)

openboard: error while loading shared libraries: libpoppler.so.125: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory temp fix: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libpoppler.so.126.0.0 /usr/lib/libpoppler.so.125

@undeadalex A fresh makepkg of Openboard should fix this problem.

Are you sure it is stuck in a loop and not just compiling different objects (the last word on the line)? How long did you leave it running?

Updated from AUR and now after install when trying to run I see this message: openboard: error while loading shared libraries: libpoppler.so.125: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

System is showing these popplers: libpoppler.so libpoppler.so.126 libpoppler.so.126.0.0

So no 125... Not sure what the work around is.

Unable to get @gbaldassin 's solution to work... Uninstalled and tried to makepkg from the AUR and keep getting stuck in a loop while building here:

it just keeps repeating this.

I have been using this application for months with no issue and use it almost daily. Its quite a hit to suddenly not be able to use it.

I had the same issue and yes, you need to reinstall it, but also make sure you do a clean build. This is especially relevant with AUR helpers.
