On up-to-date 64-bit M8, arrived at with urpmi method, pdfarranger just installed, with dependencies: 1/4: python3-pikepdf 2/4: img2pdf 3/4: lib64poppler-gir0.18 4/4: pdfarranger Started from icon on plasma desktop, just spinner notification and nothing. Started from konsole, I think the trace is small enough to directly post, not sure about formatting, so let me know the intel on that consideration, if need be. Thanks.

Launches cleanly for me in mga8-64 plasma. This system was upgraded from mga7, where i had pdfarranger already, system is now updated to all testing some hours ago. I also recently removed orphans (yeah i like to test it) I have no idea what "'pdfarranger==1.0' distribution" means... but it appears something is expected to have set it.

Hi, thanks reporting this. So, on a clean Mageia 8 install, pdfarranger seems to not run well. Missing python3 stuff? Let's call the packager on this. Assigning to David G.

Sorry I was not clear about using urpmi to perform the upgrade, which was problematic due to some file conflicts. Another BR contains some description about the series of events that got me to a functional upgrade for which 'clean', perhaps, does not apply. ;) Thanks. https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28485#c6
I don't know what to do with this issue, it works well on my mga8 and also on my Cauldron. This come from an upgrade which it seems to have gone badly!

To make some better sense, it appears I installed a version of pdfarranger from github last year sometime and its binary was in /usr/local/bin. Once I removed that, your rpm works (at least opens) for me as well. Thanks!
Ah, good you found the culprit :)
