appmenu-gtk-module

If I try to open anything from the teminal say firefox I get failed to load module appmenu-gtk-module but it opens firefox normally, I installed appmenu-gtk-module and tried to run firefox I get segmentation fault (core dumped) how do I fix this.

I am using arch linux with KDE Plasma & i3-gaps as WM

Re: appmenu-gtk-module

Check if you have the GTK_MODULES environment variable set and whether it includes appmenu-gtk-module. If yes, this is responsible for triggering GTK to try to load the module. Fix or remove that environment variable.

If GTK_MODULES is not set there is maybe also some way to configure the modules to load for Gtk via a configuration file, but I'm not sure.

Just blacklist firefox inside appmenu-gtk-module. It is easy using dconf-editor.
