Am since a while experimenting with plasma5 and continously updating it. Was mostly working.

Now since a while most kde4 based programs seem to give trouble. And I cant make much of it.

System is using:
QT:
4.8.7-r2(4)(01:19:52 17.04.2016)(exceptions glib iconv icu qt3support ssl -aqua -debug -libressl -pch ABI_MIPS="-n32 -n64 -o32" ABI_PPC="-32 -64" ABI_S390="-32 -64" ABI_X86="64 -32 -x32") 5.5.1-r1(5)^t(01:22:25 17.04.2016)(icu -debug -systemd -test)

kde4: 16.03.90
kf5: 5.6.2
kde5apps: 16.03.90

And when I try to run for instance clementine I get:
QEglContext::swapBuffers(): "Bad surface (0x300D)"
and the window stays empty

When I try juK:
using visual class 4, id 2fd
juk(14150): Unable to setup to load cache... perhaps it doesn't exist?
schleusner@core ~> KCrash: Application 'juk' crashing...

When I try amarok even worse:
*** Error in `amarok': realloc(): invalid pointer: 0x00007f5a6c4a1820 ***
======= Backtrace: =========


An it is not limited to media programs. okular also crashed, when I force a recompile for okular-5.9999 it works. As all kf5 programs.

Hmm, something seems to messed up. Does anyone know what? Is there a way to recompile everything kde4 related? I cant seem to find a fitting set.

It is hard to tell... in any case, Plasma-5 is not involved here, but maybe something is missing / was removed during the upgrade process. Does revdep-rebuild bring anything up? Do you have kdebase-runtime-meta installed? It contains runtime dependencies for a KDE4 desktop / applications.

Does it actually help when you rebuild juk or clementine?

Do you use prelink?

Nope, I run that after each update.

Yes, version 16.03.90

Nope, done several times both with the git-master version as well as normal testing or stable.

Installed versions: 20130503(23:28:55 27.10.2015)(-selinux)

I know nothing about it otherwise nor do I do anything explicit with it.

Currently I am trying to recompile everything from qt-* and kde-*. We will see. But I am not sure I hit every dependency.

In this bug the describe that a prelink -u libraries run did temporarily fix the issue.

I tried prelink -u /usr/lib64/* and /lib64/*, however it does not change anything. Does look like a different bug to me.

After quite some searching and trying I found this thread:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-947242-start-0.html

As I expected this to have something to do with qt and opengl/egl I have now recompiled

qtopengl:5 and qtcore:5 with +egl (as is forced by the mandatory wayland integration into plasma5)

qtopengl:4 and qtcore:4 explicitly with -egl use flag.

And voila, the nasty
Code:
QEglContext::swapBuffers(): "Bad surface (0x300D)"


bug from clementine and a few other qt:4 progs is gone. Fantastic, seems qt:4 is incompatible and buggy with egl use flag.

Amarok and juk were still crashing, so I recompiled them both with the newly compiled qt-libs. Result juk is fixed, amarok still crashing on the git-master version, but a downgrade to stable and it also works now.

Lesson: -egl required for qt:4, the opposite for qt:5. What a mess.

I can't confirm that observation with my systems, which also have USE=egl (and I can't remember a related bug report). Maybe it is a bad combination of flags?
