Comment 3 Thomas Backlund 2014-01-20 22:17:06 CET
Hm, it seems the files are on the isos

$ urpmf libapper
apper:/usr/lib64/apper/libapper.so
apper:/usr/lib64/kde4/imports/org/kde/apper/libapperplugin.so

$ urpmf kcm_apper.so
apper:/usr/lib64/kde4/kcm_apper.so

So I guess it needs to be started from console (and maybe under strace) to figure out where it really fails

strace

Agree, files do seem to exist in the 32bit LiveCD as well.

$ urpmf libapper
apper:/usr/lib/apper/libapper.so
apper:/usr/lib/kde4/imports/org/kde/apper/libapperplugin.so

$ urpmf kcm_apper.so
apper:/usr/lib/kde4/kcm_apper.so

Attached strace log, starting from console showed nothing of interest.

Comment 6 Colin Guthrie 2014-01-27 11:35:56 CET
The error message is confusing as it makes you think the kcm_apper.so file that can't be found when it is in fact the libapper.so file that can't be found.

Simply symlinking it:

ln -s apper/libapper.so /usr/lib64/libapper.so

This is an ugly fix but my brain can't cope this morning, so I've committed into subversion the best one I can do for now. Something better should be done, but it's not my immediate concern!
