Since version v1.7.0 the Qt5 backend is no longer actively maintained and supported.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.)

@dS810 Can you try again please? I have added 'patch' as explicit dependency.

@fsiegert You are right! Sorry, I've made a bit of a mess with the installation steps! Thanks again for your quick reply.

@fbettio It works fine for me, and your error message looks like you installed OpenBoard, then updated your system (including libpoppler) and then didn't recompile OpenBoard, such that it doesn't find the correct libpoppler.

Btw... rebuild-detector can help with these problems: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rebuild-detector

Hi. I could not install openboard. An error appeared caused by the dependencies:

$ openboard 
openboard: error while loading shared libraries: libpoppler.so.107: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The latest poppler installed on my archlinux is 21.03.0-1 (libpoppler.so.108).

Did I do something wrong? If no, could you check it?

Thanks a lot in advance, Fabio

@bartus: on Manjaro this does the trick, thanks!

@odabaz: If you intend to stick with quazip:0.9 or you are on Manjaro which is slacking off with updates, you have to roll back openboard package to commit preceding one introducing quazip:1.0 update: fa5004fdc2cc

git -C /tmp clone https://aur.archlinux.org/openboard.git
git -C /tmp/openboard reset --hard fa5004fdc2c~1
(cd /tmp/openboard; makepkg -i)

As far as I know there isn't any aur-helper that can perform package reset for you, so manual is the only way here.

Hey, I'm currently not able to install openboard. The thing is that I dont know how to apply the quazip.patch to my system. It's not quite simple as it might look. My current quazip package is quazip 0.9.1-1. I'm facing a similar issue as @rs410ga was.
