Hi,

Aren't you somehow mixing by any chance your distribution Qt 5 with the one from the installer ?

krustasia

Now that you mentioned it...there's a few Qt5 packages installed. How do I go about it?

SGaist

Check you Qt version as well as your kit, as for the original error it seems you are missing the xslt library

krustasia

reinstalling as sudoer fixes this

SGaist

Are you saying that you reinstalled Qt from the installer in your home directory using sudo ?

Hi, I'm having the same problem. That's happens because you installed the x86 version in a x64 system and, because of that, some 32bits libraries are missing. You can fix this looking for missing dependencies and installing one by one, look this output:
@
filipe@ThinkPad-T430:/opt/Qt5.4.0/Tools/QtCreator/lib/qtcreator/plugins$ ldd libHelp.so | grep "not found"
libCore.so => not found
libProjectExplorer.so => not found
libxslt.so.1 => not found
libxml2.so.2 => not found
libgstreamer-0.10.so.0 => not found
libgstapp-0.10.so.0 => not found
libgstbase-0.10.so.0 => not found
libgstinterfaces-0.10.so.0 => not found
libgstpbutils-0.10.so.0 => not found
libgstvideo-0.10.so.0 => not found
@

to fix for libxslt.so.1 you can use this command:

$ sudo apt-get install libxslt1.1:i386

Note the ":i386" ending, this will make sure that you're asking for 32 bits libraries. You will have to do this for all missing dependencies...

An another way (better way) to solve is download and install the x64 version that should be compatible with your system.

Installing the "libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0" package fixed this for me

sudo apt-get install libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0
