Description Matt Fagnani 2022-02-16 07:35:01 UTC
Description of problem:

The kinfocenter 5.24.0 graphics panel in Fedora 36 from Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-36-20220215.n.0.iso https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1918275 showed the following errors: 
OpenGL (EGL) The executable eglinfo could not be found in $PATH. 
Vulkan The executable vulkaninfo could not be found in $PATH.
Wayland The executable wayland-info could not be found in $PATH.
X-Server The executable xdpyinfo could not be found in $PATH.

eglinfo is provided by egl-utils-8.4.0-13.20210504git0f9e7d9.fc36.x86_64
vulkaninfo is provided by vulkan-tools-1.2.198.0-2.fc36.x86_64
wayland-info is provided by wayland-utils-1.0.0-4.fc36.x86_64
xdpyinfo is provided by xdpyinfo-1.3.2-4.fc36.x86_64

None of those packages are installed in Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-36-20220215.n.0.iso
kinfocenter might need to depend on those packages to resolve these errors.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kinfocenter-5.24.0-1.fc36.x86_64
kf5-plasma-5.90.0-2.fc36.x86_64
qt5-qtbase-5.15.2-33.fc36.x86_64

How reproducible:
Each time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-36-20220215.n.0.iso
2. Start kinfocenter
3. Select Graphics in the left menu
4. Select OpenGL (EGL) in the graphics menu
5. Select Vulkan in the graphics menu
6. Select Wayland in the graphics menu
7. Select X-Server in the graphics menu


Actual results:
The kinfocenter 5.24.0 graphics panels showed errors like The executable eglinfo could not be found in $PATH.

Expected results:
kinfocenter would show the graphics information without those errors

Comment 1 Justin Zobel 2022-05-15 02:37:45 UTC
eglinfo is supplied by egl-utils (18kB)
wayland-info is supplied by wayland-utils (49kB)

I'll bring up adding these as dependencies to kinfocenter in the KDE SIG meeting.

Resolved by https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kinfocenter/c/19d7a379ca5e0fa66e7396f48d8222e359edbfdb?branch=rawhide, will be in next builds.

Thanks for the update. vulkan-tools and xdpyinfo would still need to be added as dependencies of kinfocenter to resolve the errors for the Vulkan and X-Server panels as I mentioned. The bodhi update https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-80fb289936 would usually be marked as fixing the bugzilla report so that the updates's status can be tracked and changed automatically.
