Cannot launch scilab - Error parsing gtk-icon-sizes string: ''

Hey there,

I installed the scilab package from the AUR. When I try to run scilab from the terminal, I get:

$ scilab
Error parsing gtk-icon-sizes string: ''

A window pops up and closes a milisecond later again. Same applies if I try to start the application from the whisker menu (I am running Arch+xfce on my desktop computer). I assume this is a xfce or gtk related issue. I googled around and did not find any helpful solution. I tried different themes and icon-themes in the xfce settings, which did not change anything.

I have also installed scilab on my laptop where I run manjaro with xfce. I get the same result there.

I´d be thankfully for any hint.

Edit: I am wondering if it makes sense to restore XFCE default settings as described in the wiki? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xf … leshooting
