gdm start fails: gsettings segfaults (glib-gio related)
Since the last update, gdm is unable to start, the screen only flickers for a few seconds.
I am not sure why, I upgraded gnuplot, gst-plugins, potrace and lib32-nvidia-utils. Also, I tried to install gtkhash & gtkhash-nautilus from aur, but afterwards, I was unable to start nautilus anymore (after killing it with nautilus -q). I don’t remember the error message. Afterwards, I removed both gtkhash & gtkhash-nautilus again, and was still unable to start nautilus, so I decided to reboot.
My system is fully up-to-date, I am running linux 4.4.1-2-ARCH, my graphics driver is nvidia 361.18-3. Reinstalling glib2, gsettings-desktop-schemas, glib-networking and gdm didn’t do anything. Also, glib-compile-schemas didn’t fix the problem. Starting gsettings without any parameters works, starting it with any parameters (including help, --version) will result in a segfault.
I copied the relevant parts from my journal (journalctl -xb). Xorg doesn’t produce any errors.

Re: gdm start fails: gsettings segfaults (glib-gio related)
Did you tried to reinstall glib package? Or maybe downgrade it?
