can not load libnotify_plugin.so (can not open shared object libnotify.so.4)

can not load libsecret_plugin.so (can not open shared object libsecret-1.so.0)

failed to initialize xrandr.
xkeyboard extension not present on the x server.

liblua.so.5.3.5 does not exist.
libnotify.so.4 does not exist.

Update:  Loading libarchive3.tcz, libnotify.tcz and libsecret.tcz files, new error is present requesting for libgtk-3.so.0 file.  Request for liblua.so.5.3.5 remains active.

Another update, not writed in first post:

Another error found was QT5 can not load extensions module.  Loading all QT5 packages, except for QT5-dev, does not solve this.  :-(

Using Xorg-3d and pulseaudio/pavucontrol, I downloaded and installed vlc3, which played a video without problems:

There is a problem with the desktop icon - I will fix it

The info file mentions that libsecret is optional.

I see the error "qt interface error: Unable to load extensions module", but a video still plays.

The optional lua plugin does indeed depend on an earlier version of lua-lib.

I didn't check all of the other plugins, but most (if not all) of them look to depend on current extensions.
