+Known Bugs
+==========
+There exists a QT incompatibility that I found a workaround for a while ago.
+
+The spec file creates a barebones executable that sets the variables `MENDELEY_BUNDLED_QT_PLUGIN_PATH` to that of Fedora's.
+```bash
+
+# seems like the executable is looking for this variable
+# so I had to set it.
+cat > bin/%{name} <<EOF
+#!/bin/sh
+export MENDELEY_BUNDLED_QT_PLUGIN_PATH=%{_libdir}/qt5/plugins
+%{_libexecdir}/%{name} "$@"
+EOF
+chmod +x bin/%{name}
+```
+
+The link to the bug on the Mendeley [website](http://support.mendeley.com/customer/portal/questions/16832835-mendeley-desktop-1-17-8-on-fedora-crashes-a-few-seconds-after-starting) seems to have a similar workaround.
