GPaste UI fails to start on Arch

Open c2h5oh opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

This seems to be different than https://github.com/Keruspe/GPaste/issues/277 so I'm opening a separate issue

gpaste-client ui (or any other command that would show ui):

  • as regular user doesn't launch ui, doesn't print anything, exists with 0 code
  • as root doesn't launch ui, prints GPaste-CRITICAL **: 11:36:47.934: Couldn't spawn Ui: Error spawning command line ?dbus-launch --autolaunch=[snip] --binary-syntax --close-stderr?: Child process exited with code 1, exits with 1 code

G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all adds nothing to regular user output and adds following to root output:

(gpaste-client:28204): GLib-DEBUG: 11:27:54.865: posix_spawn avoided (fd close requested)
(gpaste-client:28204): GLib-DEBUG: 11:27:54.870: posix_spawn avoided (fd close requested)

Running dbus-launch --autolaunch=[snip] --binary-syntax --close-stderr prints

Autolaunch requested, but X11 support not compiled in.
Cannot continue.

but I believe it to be a red herring - Arch has had dbus without X11 support for a long time and I've been able to use GPaste UI as recently as 4 weeks ago, got back from vacation, updated a couple packages (including gpaste to 3.34) and it has stopped working

daemon works fine

gpaste-client version
GPaste 3.34.0

gpaste-client daemon-version  
3.34.0

provided by Arch package gpaste 3.34.0-1

xorg 1.20.5
i3wm  4.17.1

Are you still experiencing this?

GPaste 3.38.4 (latest on Arch right now) works fine.
