Mendeley crashes immediately after the start, complaining about the incorrect version of the Qt library (version 5.10 is required). However, Qt 5.10 is not yet available in the portage. The current stable version of Qt (dev-qt/qtcore-5.9.4-r2) is installed in the system. /opt/mendeleydesktop/bin/mendeleydesktop /opt/mendeleydesktop/bin/..//lib64/mendeleydesktop/libexec/mendeleydesktop.x86_64: /usr/lib64/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.10' not found (required by /opt/mendeleydesktop/bin/..//lib64/mendeleydesktop/libexec/mendeleydesktop.x86_64) /opt/mendeleydesktop/bin/..//lib64/mendeleydesktop/libexec/mendeleydesktop.x86_64: /usr/lib64/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.10' not found (required by /opt/mendeleydesktop/bin/..//lib64/libMendeley.so.1.18) Mendeley itself runs OK when using bundled Qt 5.10 (and plugins): tar xaf mendeleydesktop-1.18-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 -C /tmp export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/6.4.0 /tmp/mendeleydesktop-1.18-linux-x86_64/bin/mendeleydesktop Possible solution: A USE flag may be added to the ebuild to install the bundled Qt (and plugins) when the required version of Qt is not available in the system.
Sounds like mendeleydesktop-1.18 should be masked.
(In reply to Andreas Sturmlechner from comment #1) > Sounds like mendeleydesktop-1.18 should be masked. And the previous version 1.17.13 should be restored in the tree!
