The client Desura under Debian and Ubuntu works fine but under Chakra i have one issue. When i'm trying to launch Desura i have no content in the main window.
Terminal return:

Someone wrote: include/SharedObjectLoader.h:75 - Error loading library libcef_desura.so: 'libgconf-2.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'


Chakra Linux 64 bits
KDE 4.7.1 with Kwin enabled

EDIT: I think i find the problem, Chakra is an integrist KDE distribution so there is no GTK apps and libs, the client needs gconf to run.
Gamers, do not install Chakra!

Hm why say that against Chakra?
It's just a case of going pacman -S gconf2 and it will work fine.. Saying "Gamers, do not install Chakra!" is a little silly, Gamers, do not install linux in general hence why most games don't support it. Or maybe Gamers, do not install Desura because it relys on a GTK library?
If your unwilling to "make" things work in Linux and expect them to work out of the box with over 1000 distros then tbh you shouldn't be using linux in the first place.
