Systemd control module for KDE. Provides a graphical frontend for the systemd daemon, which allows for viewing and controlling systemd units, logind sessions, as well as modifying configuration files.

Integrates in the System Settings dialogue in KDE. Can also be run by issuing the command:
kcmshell5 kcm_systemd

Note: As of v1.0.0 systemd-kcm requires KDE Frameworks 5!

High I've just stumbled upon this great software, well hope it great, the pictures look good but I am unable to get it to load on my system.
The following error constantly comes up when attempting to load this software.

Can not load library /usr/lib/kde4/kcm_systemd.so(libboost_filesystem.so.1.55.0 can not open shared object file.) No such file or directory. I tried the arch install both from here and from the arch repo to no avail it still fails to load.
Any help you can render would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Are you using the kde4-version of kcmsystemd? In that case you should use version 0.7.0.

It seems it can not find boost. Do you have boost installed? Which version? Try to run ldconfig -v |grep boost_file

Also I don't know if you are aware of this but Arch is in a transition of KDE to the new frame works as stated here:https://www.archlinux.org/news/transition-of-kde-software-to-the-kde-framework-and-qt-5/
I don't know if this maybe the problem or not as I don't know how far along the transition is.

Thanks for your help.

And again any help you can render would be greatly appreciated.

I've tried both versions 1.1 and 0.7.0
The boost versions are:1.58.0-1 for boost and boost-libs.
Cmake completes successfully, but make fails with

Linking CXX executable kcmsystemdhelper
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching ``'
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Any help you can render would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

The 1.1.0 version is for KF5, while the 0.7.0 version is for kde4.

Looks like the binary package you installed was linked against boost 1.55.0 which is not found on your system. Re-compiling kcmsystemd should fix this, but I'm not sure what causes the compilation error for you. Have you tried downloading kcmsystemd from the github page and compiling by hand, i.e. not using arch's pkgbuild scripts?

A workaround might be to create a symlink:
ln -svf libboost_filesystem.so.1.58.0 /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.so.1.55.0

Thanks for reporting. I don't see this crash on my system. Would you be able to apply a patch that I send you and compile the source?

Surely. Please send to app-spam@mail.ru

Meanwhile I ran gdb and see that it fails on this line:
