Few months ago I wrote about my problems with running this very nice software on my Fedora 14.
After while, I've upgrade my Fedora to 15, next to 16 and recently I've noticed that Mendeley again have not worked.
What I've got on console is some memory pointer error:
[teodor@zuzia lib]$ mendeley
Running /home/teodor/download/apps/mendeleydesktop-1.1.3-linux-x86_64/bin/..//lib/mendeleydesktop/libexec/mendeleydesktop.x86_64
loaded the Generic plugin
QSharedPointer: pointer 0x260f550 already has reference counting
Google said that problem is related to the Qt library, again.. this time you can simply run mendeleydesktop with option that switch app to use internal version of library. I've modified running script and set this option on by add after line 199 this statement:
use_system_qt = False
That's all for a while... Mendeley starts but it shows similary error like in previous post.

This time solution is rather different. You need to install package openssl-devel:
su -c 'yum install openssl-devel'
