[Cura crashes when trying to use 'Open File(s)' Arch Linux]

Just now, wetgravel said:

Well, using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. I ended up just installing all the missing packages that were installed on Reborn OS that weren't installed on mine. Cura started working properly after a reboot.

 

That's not really what I was doing. Cura was crashing on my desktop PC running on bare metal not in a VM. That's what I needed to fix. I used the VM's to find an Arch distro running KDE that didn't crash Cura so I could compare the differences in installed packages between a distro that worked and one that didn't. And it worked!

 

Could you share the list of missing packages, please?

I have the same issue on Manjaro i3. 

 

Tried Cura 5.4 and Cura 5.5. Both AppImage and AUR build...

 

Running with strace results in the following just before the crash:

2023-11-01 13:40:19,435 - WARNING - [MainThread] UM.Qt.QtApplication.__onQmlWarning [444]: file:///opt/ultimaker-cura/share/cura/resources/qml/Cura.qml:624:5: QML FileDialog: Failed to load non-native FileDialog>
qrc:/qt-project.org/imports/QtQuick/Dialogs/quickimpl/qml/FileDialog.qml:4 module "Qt.labs.folderlistmodel" is not installed
 

I'm not sure what to install extra, because I have both qt5-declarative qt5-quickcontrols qt5-quickcontrols2 as qt6-declarative
