Bluetooth, many applications broken in latest tumbleweed update

Yesterday my system updated with lots of new packages. After a reboot, many things are broken. The bluetooth system tray icon is missing, and the bluetooth mouse that was working fine before the reboot stopped. Programs such as gwenview and anything needing to bring up a file menu die with this message:
Could not start process Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Error loading ‘kio_file’.
Digikam dies with this error:
digikam: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libkface.so.3: undefined symbol: _ZNK2cv14FaceRecognizer4saveERKNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEE

All of these programs were working fine until the reboot with the new packages.

From /etc/issue:

Assuming you are running KDE’s Plasma 5, I’m not seeing this problem here. Gwenview brings up its file menu normally and displays my photos, etc. Digikam also works normally.

Sorry that doesn’t help much, but clearly something went wrong with your update. Suggest you explain your method used to upgrade, and mention any additional repos used.

The update was through the applet in the system tray. I believe that I was running KDE 4, but it was whatever was installed when I did the original OS install.

I am doing a zypper dup right now to see if that solves the problem.

Are you sure you were running TW and not 13.2? When was the last previous update you did?

All of the repositories that were enables were Tumbleweed ones, and the system identified itself as tumbleweed (see the initial post of this thread).

The zypper dup solved the problem.

The underlying problem is that the applet that did the update did not properly deal with things like the bluedevil packagine being replaced by bluedevil5. There were several other required but missing packages because the system was upgrading to plasma5 but missing some of the key packages in the update for some reason.

Other than dealing with new configuration because plasma5 is not using the same config as before, my system is fully functional now.

Not surprising. The only recommended method to update TW is “zypper
dup”, although a zypper up can often work.

And what contribution does this make to the problem, which is now solved by the OP anyway? :\

Sighing “post factum” is also too late.
