Description Carolyn Rowse 2014-07-13 20:02:59 CEST
Description of problem:

I have Alpha 1 running in a VM having started from the Live KDE CD and then installed it to the VM's hard drive.

I added Enlightenment desktop and was able to log in to that.  When I tried to install Lxqt and Xfce as well (not both at the same time), with each of them I got a message saying that installation had failed, but with no button to click to find out more information although the Xfce one mentioned aria2 and aria3.

I see that a lot of the files and applications that go with these two desktops have been installed, such as themes, Mousepad, Ristretto etc, but neither desktop is showing on the list of login options.

I haven't tried any other desktops yet.

That's from today's attempt to install MATE.  Is that the log you meant?

This is probably better now in Mageia 5RC. Could you test?

So much has changed that I'm confident this bug is gone. Closing.
