When used in a Gnome desktop, okular still crashes when hovering over the three “buttons” on the right of the window top bar, as explained in [Stable Update] 2024-05-13 - Kernels, Plasma 6, Gnome 46, LxQT 2.0, Nvidia, Pacman - #599 by Rmano (I hoped that the qt6-base update could fix it, but no).

Workaround:

  1. install okular from flatpack
  2. create a file ~/bin/okular with content
    #! /bin/bash
#
exec flatpak run org.kde.okular "$@"

Now, it “works”, although it has a completely different look from the rest of the system (better than nothing).

I will try to keep this updated if a new update (!) fixes the issue. If I find instruction on how to do it, I could even try to report the problem to the KDE bugzilla…
