segfault in several gtk applications and mimetypes not working anymore

ixeft · 2016-02-11 13:48:46

Hello !

since my last upgrade,
a lot of gtk based program crashes at start, or when using functions
exemple :

- evince
- gthumb
- gsettings
- firefox when tring to use the file chooser.

Everytime, this error shows up :

    GLib-GIO-ERROR **: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system
    (core dumped)

To solve that, I tried to downgrade glib and gtk3 with no success (note that my last upgrade did not included those packages.)

At the same time, some apps are not crashing but are unable to use correctly mimetype.

in thunar and pcmanfm, all files are concidered as "applications/octet-stream".
ristretto, can't find image type in the filechooser.
okular can't find mimetypes, therefore open files.

I tried to remove all user wide cache and data related to mime, update-mime-database, update-desktop-database with no success.

I also see no packages that seems related to my problem in my last upgrade.

Here the partial log of pacman :

I think i saw in the last forum posts some related problems

Does somebody experiences the same problems, has some advices ?

Regards,

EDIT (SOLVED):
- Missing schema problem was solve after upgrading gsettings and reinstalling gsettings-desktop-schemas again
- Mime problem was solved correcting permission for /usr/share/mime/mime.cache which was not readable for users.
