bwrap launcher crashing

Open battleof3 opened this issue 8 months ago • 2 comments

Describe the bug Launching protontricks --gui succeeds but then bwrap crashes after selecting a game container.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Run command protontricks --gui OR use desktop shortcut
  2. Select game from zenity/yad display list (yad in my case, but have tried it without yad installed).
  3. Command fails and error is displayed

Expected behavior GUI should proceed to the winetricks menu.

System (please complete the following information):

  • Distro: CachyOS
  • Protontricks installation method: Cachy repository
  • Protontricks version: run 1.12.1
  • Steam version: No beta, version 1.0.0.82-2 packaged by Levente Polyak

Additional context All was working around a month ago when I was last gaming. I have tried rebooting and reinstalling both proton and protontricks. Now requires --no-bwrap to proceed.

traceback and log Protontricks was closed due to the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/protontricks/cli/util.py", line 175, in wrapper return cli_func(self, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/protontricks/cli/main.py", line 337, in main run_command( ~~~~~~~~~~~^ winetricks_path=winetricks_path, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ...<7 lines>... cwd=cwd ^^^^^^^ ) ^ File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/protontricks/util.py", line 522, in run_command raise RuntimeError( ...<2 lines>... ) RuntimeError: bwrap launcher crashed, returncode: 1

Can you try running the following command in a terminal emulator and copying the output? The error dialog cannot capture all output, most importantly including bwrap which seems to be crashing for some reason.

protontricks -vv --gui
