[SOLVED] gtk3 Applications broken

rdahlgren · 2015-07-07 18:23:35

Hi all,

Recently (some time in the last 2-3 weeks) something changed that has broken gtk3 applications for me. I first noticed it as some missing icons in DeaDBeeF - which I thought was odd but not a show stopper. Today I noticed that Evince fails to start at all. It has a core dump after the following error:

(evince:1472): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

Searching yielded the following suggestions:

1. Downgrade gtk3 to 3.14.x - I tried this by using gtk3-aqd from the AUR which was pinned to 3.14.8. This added a host of missing icon messages before evince again complained about missing schemas and dumped core.
2. Try listing the schemas with `gsettings list-schemas` - this seg faults immediately.
3. Verify that gsettings-desktop-schemas is installed. It is, at version 3.16.1-1

Any help here is greatly appreciated.

Some additional info: I thought I'd dig a little deeper into the 'gsetting list-schemas' seg fault as that seems like the simpler problem. Running 'gsettings' correctly displays the usage message, so I tried running `gsettings list-schemas` with strace. The output follows:

Note at the end the ENOENT for 'glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled' - is there some manual step I need to create this?

Sorry for the reply spam.

Another thing that may be of note (maybe not) is the contents of the gsettings-desktop-schemas.

rdahlgren@athas:~ $ pacman -Ql gsettings-desktop-schemas | grep en_
gsettings-desktop-schemas /usr/share/locale/en_GB/
gsettings-desktop-schemas /usr/share/locale/en_GB/LC_MESSAGES/
gsettings-desktop-schemas /usr/share/locale/en_GB/LC_MESSAGES/gsettings-desktop-schemas.mo

My locale is as follows:

rdahlgren@athas:~ $ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Maybe the lack of en_US locale files for the schema settings is causing issues? I'm really unfamiliar with the guts of gtk and I've been living blissfully in "it just works" land for years

Ok, so here's the culprit. A week or two back I updated the xdg applications so that hipchat, thunderbird, etc would use the correct applications to open links and the like. As part of this process I had to specify the XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable, which I set with

export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$XDG_DATA_DIRS:$HOME/.local/share/

. Unfortunately, the xdg stuff doesn't set a default XDG_DATA_DIRS variable, meaning the value was set to ":/home/rdahlgren/.local/share/". This was breaking the world. To correct it, I've set XDG_DATA_DIRS to

/usr/share:/home/rdahlgren/.local/share/

.

TL;DR - I expected sane behavior from xdg stuff, got burned from my assumptions.

As a final note to the next poor soul that finds themselves in this or a similar situation; I found the final clue by using gdb to get a backtrace on the gsettings crash:

From there I googled 'segfault in libgio g_settings_schema_source_ref' and found this to a gnome mailing list about a gsettings crash ->https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2012-March/msg00046.html

Well researched. Feel free to add this to the wiki (in the GTK+ article, most likely)

n.b XDG_DATA_HOME is typicaly used for ~/.local/share

3. Verify that gsettings-desktop-schemas is installed. It is, at version 3.16.1-1

I had the problem that gsettings segfaulted, but installing the gsettings-desktop-schemas solved it. Thanks for the hint!
