Sometimes this happens for me even after I've just done the update and restarted nightly. Usually I have to restart X to clear this up. It might be the same for you. I think this is because a library was updated but wasn't reloaded. Try running ldconfig as root to reload any libraries. If that fails, try logging out of your desktop and restarting it. Warning, this might just be superstition on my part. :-) _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
