How to open a KDE konsole app via QProcess?

[SandyLocke]

The test app is a widget application which uses QProcess to call different terminal emulators like gnome-terminal, the KDE app konsole or xdg-terminal on different Linux distributions. All my tests where successful except the ones on KDE. There I always end up with

/usr/bin/konsole: /home/user/Qt/5.12.5/gcc_64/lib/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.9.4_PRIVATE_API' not found (required by /usr/lib64/libKF5XmlGui.so.5)

Exempels to call konsole on KDE:

QProcess::startDetached("konsole");
QProcess::startDetached("kstart",  {"konsole"});
QProcess::startDetached("xdg-terminal");

Is there any possibility to open a KDE konsole window even if there is a Qt version mismatch?

Set the correct PATH before starting the QProcess -> https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qprocess.html#processEnvironment

@Christian-Ehrlicher

Thanks, setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH worked.

environment.insert("LD_LIBRARY_PATH", "/usr/lib64/");
