[solved] Cannot open Quodlibet player on KDE Plasma. Can on Gnome.

Hi

When I try to open quodlibet music player on my desktop computer running Arch with KDE Plasma, I get this:

$ quodlibet
**
ERROR:../pygobject/gi/gimodule.c:1850:_wrap_pyg_hook_up_vfunc_implementation: assertion failed: (G_TYPE_IS_CLASSED (implementor_gtype))
Bail out! ERROR:../pygobject/gi/gimodule.c:1850:_wrap_pyg_hook_up_vfunc_implementation: assertion failed: (G_TYPE_IS_CLASSED (implementor_gtype))
Aborted (core dumped)

This occurs even when using another user account.

However, I can open quodlibet on my laptop running Arch with Gnome.
Any idea on how to fix quodlibet on KDE Plasma?

Thanks for reading.

Edit:
python coredumps when I try to open quodlibet

Fri 2024-04-12 16:50:02 -03 68913 1003 1003 SIGABRT present  /usr/bin/python3.11

I have reinstalled python, but the problem persists.

No, it

#1  0x00007d47176ab393 in __pthread_kill_internal (signo=6, threadid=<optimized out>) at pthread_kill.c:78

aborts because of the error.
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=294779 was down to a dated glib2 from the AUR

I have just reinstalled glib2, rebooted, but quodlibet is still broken.

What about the other elements in the chain?

pacman -Qikk python-gobject gobject-introspection-runtime

For https://forum.garudalinux.org/t/quod-li … tart/21299 it's a stale icu version (down the thread, mitigational effort - core is partial updates)

Re: [solved] Cannot open Quodlibet player on KDE Plasma. Can on Gnome.

I have solved the problem by uninstalling libunity (it does not work with KDE Plasma anyway) and its dependency dee.

$ sudo pacman -Rcns libunity
[sudo] password for myuser:

Package (2)  Old Version  Net Change

dee          1.2.7-14      -3.21 MiB
libunity     7.1.4-15     -10.11 MiB

Total Removed Size:  13.32 MiB
