Can't find installed software

During an attempt to install intel parallel studio xe 2020 update 1 the installer complains that it can’t find the GTK3 library and the pango library.
These libraries were installed, though, as part of the desktop-dev bundle and swupd also confirms this.

I also noticed the same problem with the atom editor: the installation of the atom bundle went fine but still I’m unable to launch atom from the terminal or using the gui.

Is there anything I’m overlooking here?

Thank you very much in advance

Did you try :

gtk-query-settings
