Hello,

I ran Tumbleweed since some weeks now then I added Cinnamon repo and installad and used it perfectly until last zypper update wherein Cinnamon presents a failure (empty panel)

sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/cinnamon/libcinnamon.so /usr/lib64 sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/cinnamon/libcinnamon-js.so /usr/lib64

https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/4500

It's an upstream bug existing for years.

Marguerite

Hi Marguerite! I will try your suggested solution right now but I'm confident it could do the trick. Wonder why if this bug is 'existing for years' nobody of the maintainers thought to correct it and why it is not mentioned into opensuse documentation as for example https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Cinnamon (which should be a good place). Then I suppose I have to create this symbolic links every time I run a zypper up it isn't ?

sure will do.

because I'm still waiting upstream's reply.

but it sounds to me upstream either don't care about it (the one replys me on github is Fedora's Cinnamon maintainer) or are not capable of fixing it (as upstream, they even borrow workarounds from openSUSE GNOME team...) although I think the linking issue is easy for a coder (which I'm not one of) to fix...

if upstream can't fix it, I'll create the symlinks in the package.

Great! Nice to have people like you among openSUSE members/contributors.

Creating a file under /etc/ld.so.conf.d with "/usr/lib64/cinnamon" as content would be the "cleaner" fix for this. Use "ldconfig" as root after and the libs should be able to get called.

Hello Fabian, Nice to know this option! You mean that I could create a file: marco@linux-turion64:~> ls -l /etc/ld.so.conf.d totale 16 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 272 25 giu 08.04 graphviz.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 30 8 set 14.46 kdelibs3.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20 19 giu 19.00 smoke-gen.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 211 30 lug 05.07 wxWidgets.conf marco@linux-turion64:~> cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/kdelibs3.conf /opt/kde3/lib64 /opt/kde3/lib sudo touch /etc/ld.so.conf.d/cinnamon.conf containing cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/cinnamon.conf /usr/lib64/cinnamon Right?

Right?

Just this?

Thanks.

Yes, that should do the trick. Don't forget to either reboot or invoke "ldconfig" as root afterwards.

Fabian
