This is what happens if I try to run VLC:
main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
main interface error: option qt-volume-complete does not exist
skins2 interface error: no suitable dialogs provider found (hint: compile the qt4 plugin, and make sure it is loaded properly)
skins2 interface error: cannot instantiate qt4 dialogs provider
I tried the command vlc -vv for more details, and apparently the Qt4 UI fails to load because there is an undefined symbol: _mali_clz_lu
It used to work until a few days ago. I've tried removing and installing both vlc and qt4 in all sorts of different ways (also deleting old config files and any kind of cache), what else can I do?

bin
directory.Add the
bin
directory to your$PATH
environment variable so that MuseScore knows where it is. Modify the following command with the correct path as appropriate.:Load your new $PATH variable.
Complete! You can check the Qt installation was successful by typing
