Adding symlink $pkgdir/opt/${pkgname}/lib/libxml2.so.2 by package side should be enough (or patchelf.)

I also got the error: kde-open: /opt/plex-desktop/lib/libQt6Core.so.6: version `Qt_6.8' not found (required by kde-open) I ALSO was able to fix with MrGrim's comment from 10-01-24: "mrgrim commented on 2024-10-01 05:16 (UTC)"

I still got the same error as @DerHerrGammler. This is not really a fix, but either a patch that will be overwritten in the next update (I suppose): Change the startup-script in /opt/plex-desktop/Plex.sh, add a comment to line 3 leaving LD_LIBRARY_PATH to prev. values/unset.

This fixed the login-problem for me. Tested it by playing some SD/HD Videos (direct, non-transcoded) and it worked fine on my system (KDE w. Wayland).

Thanks @mrgrim! https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/plex-desktop?O=20#comment-992918 It worked! I could login using X, but on Wayland it didin't work.

I tried the fix by @mrgrim, but I am getting on the latest KDE plasma and NVIDIA Drivers 565.77:

The fix described by @mrgrim at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/plex-desktop?O=20#comment-992918 worked for me!

@username227 The fix looks promising but I am unsure as to how to apply the same configs as the Nix package on Arch. Any idea?

username227 commented on 2025-01-03 12:26 (UTC)

Seems like this might be a known issue and not a package issue. See this thread for a possible solution: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/342824.

@username227 - it was in fact not installed but also unfortunately didn't solved the issue

username227 commented on 2025-01-03 03:56 (UTC)

@derherrgammler - do you have the package python-pyqt6 installed? if not, try installing it and see if that helps.
