Crash on start: Symbol lookup error

[notxenonbox]

I am on arch linux and I installed the discord-qt AUR package. My system is up to date

Here is the output when I run discord-qt:

neo@fukushima ~
λ Discord-Qt
[warn] [PreLaunchConfigManager] Could not load config file.
Discord-Qt: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/discord-qt/dist/nodegui_core.node: undefined symbol: _ZdlPvm, version Qt_5

If any more information is needed, just ask.

I could only recommend installing discord-qt-appimage package, the discord-qt package seems to be broken by some maintainer.

[notxenonbox]

I cannot use the appimage with wayland, it has an outdated QT version.

[Zaedus]

Yes, this same exact issue happened to me too. I installed the appimage and it worked fine, but I'm on xorg. I can recommend Xwayland, if that is at all possible.

[notxenonbox]

Thanks for the Xwayland tip, but I would like to avoid that, I need to set a environment for that. I know it's a small inconvenience, but I would like to run full wayland, that's the reason I am searching for a custom client in the first place.

[ruslang02]

You could try building the client by yourself, as there are really no problems running it on Wayland or Mir.. The only thing to consider is to build NodeGui with your system Qt libraries rather than miniqt ones that nodegui downloads on install. If I'm not wrong you need to set the QT_INSTALL_DIR variable when running npm install.

[notxenonbox]

Thanks for responding I will look into that.
