Not sure whether that's the cause of the SIGSEGV, though.

i just installed scribus using pacman on my daughters laptop .

   community/scribus 1.5.8-11
    Desktop publishing software
[andrew@darkstar:~]$                                                      (11-25 16:20)

launching from menu gives me output of #signal 11 as O.P states. A simple fix is to run from terminal using /usr/bin/scribus --no-splash

That gets the application up in gui and working. Now for me not a problem ; but for my daughter asking her to run commands like that isn't going to bev a problem. I can't understand why that bug hasn't been sorted. I'm working on a work around where I place a .desktop file which when clicked evokes a bask script containing the code with --no-splash. . bash script works but having trouble with .desktop file

I have done a quick and dirty fix : i edited the scribus.desktop file at : /usr/share/applications
for the line

Exec=scribus % f
// i made it the line below
Exec=scribus  --no-splash % f

Do you also get

Warning: dynamic library '/usr/lib/osgPlugins-3.6.5/osgdb_ffmpeg.so' exists, but an error occurred while trying to open it:

If so, what's the output for the commands in #2?

captain_sensible · 2022-11-25 16:56:36

i edited my post , its all up and working

but ...on my laptop i have the stable version : 1.4.8 from AUR

I think i will remove that and use the main repo version. So over the weekend i will install without the dirty fix ,and then i can give you the output :^)

That 'fix' will be overwritten every time the scribus package is updated. You want to make a copy of that file in /usr/local/share/applications and edit that instead.

captain_sensible · 2022-11-25 17:13:49

yeah guessed as much , it would be over written

ok /usr/local/share/applications

thanks

also will give output for seth - see my edited above above

I got it working using :

  sudo scribus --no-splash

How is that the entire output of this command?

type pacman

The osgPlugins warnings might be red herrings, though.
For clarification: is the output in #8 from a successful or failing start?

captain_sensible · 2022-11-26 16:51:13

scribus has now gone unstable i was playing with gksu

type pacman output :

andrew@darkstar:~]$ type pacman                                          (11-26 16:49)
pacman is /usr/bin/pacman

#8 failed

scribus works on daughters laptop with no need of "sudo" ; the main difference between my laptop and hers is i have cinnamon and she is using gnome classic on wayland .

output of successful launch of latest scribus on her laptop is:

The session type seems indeeed very relevant

the main difference between my laptop and hers is i have cinnamon and she is using gnome classic on wayland

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland scribus

captain_sensible · 2022-11-27 10:57:25

playing around with scribus:

[andrew@darkstar:~]$ sudo QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland   scribus --no-splash                (11-27 10:55)

with command below got gui up but oversized and limited functionality

 
sudo QT_QPA_PLATFORM=eglfs  scribus --no-splash

V1del · 2022-11-27 13:26:09

Don't use sudo for scribus, the other qpa platform change that makes "normal" sense is xcb which would opt for xorg/xwayland

captain_sensible · 2022-11-27 14:19:01

very strange using :

 QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb    scribus --no-splash

it has launched and worked twice out of about 12 goes and crashed rest of time
. All i did recently was install
haskell-xcb-types

qt5-xcb-private-headers

You can disregard all the "crashes" you got when trying to "sudo" it. Just don't.
If that's your testcase, your testcase is broken.
If you have pending issues when *not* sudo'ing scribus (w/ or w/o splash), please elaborate on those.

captain_sensible · 2022-11-27 15:52:05

i don't see the word "sudo" mentioned at #16 ?

seth · 2022-11-27 16:22:36

And I think before the edit you had a better success rate there?

Either way, since this is presumingly a wayland session (afaiu that's the only problematic system) this should certainly be

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland scribus --no-splash

resp.

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland scribus

captain_sensible · 2022-11-27 21:05:37

yes i edited;i made an error in assuming it was working. tried crashed, tried crash , could not t believe it , tried again forgot how many times i tired and edited to a guestimate

Anyway i've gone back to scribus-stable in the AUR

seth · 2022-11-27 21:24:26

Recap for later:
scribus on your daughters system (gnome, wayland) works
scribus on your system (cinnamon, X11) doesn't

Is that correct?

Is her situation regardless of --no-splash?
Is yours?

Did scribus leave coredumps?

captain_sensible · 2022-11-28 10:28:18

Summary of my findings so far:

Andrina's  laptop

Scribis 1.5.8 

Session
[gina@darkstar applications]$ echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
wayland

therefore Gnome on wayland.
Scribus crashes with #11, but if  launched with --no-splash it launches and works no problem. It has launched every time using --no-splash and no crashes

My laptop 

[andrew@darkstar:~][1]$ echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE                            (11-28 10:14)
x11

So my laptop is cinammon on X11

I would need spoon feeding to get info from dump; partly because i currently have a degree of "mental impairment" due to greiving

last entries might reflect output when i switched to scribus-stable. I can easily and am willing to revert to 1.5.8 to get info, but may need guidance in able to do it.

seth · 2022-11-28 17:51:03

Interestingly, most scribus instances aborted.

Try

coredumpctl gdb 2357

You'll need https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/gdb/

That's from a run at Sun 2022-11-27 10:31:34 and no sudo (UID 1000)

Edit:
did you try

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland scribus # not --no-splash

on Andrina's laptop?

Note the PID you pass to GDB will likely not be the same on your system, you'll need to recheck the PID of the crash with coredumpctl list
