Had a look in the manjaro repos and there is nothing in there qdbus related not even qdbus-qt4, or in the aur for that matter. Maybe I'll ask the devs in the forum some time. They did just start officially supporting their kde spin maybe they forgot to add that particular component.

Can you check in /usr/bin/ for any executable named "qdbus" or similar? You will likely find qdbus shipped as part of one of the libqt4 packages I suspect.

Alright I looked in /usr/bin found a qdbus-qt4 file that links to /usr/lib/qt4/bin/qdbus and there is a qdbus executable in that folder.

Altering my original example, this should work then:

Code: Select all

qdbus-qt4 org.kde.ksmserver /ScreenSaver Lock

That will come in handy later, thanks for your help.
