DecSync - FeedReader stays empty

Hi, thanks to your updated build guide I installed FeedReader 2.11.0 successfully. On first start of FeedReader it asks the user for the account which I set to DecSync which I already use on my Android devices via the great spaRSS DecSync. However FeedReader stays empty even after restarting the app and manually clicking on the button to refresh feeds. The DecSync folder it is set to contains the exact same files which my Android devices contain thanks to Syncthing keeping them all in sync. Is this an issue in the software or, which is probably more likely, did I overlook something? Any hints welcome! Thanks!

It should add the feeds after you hit the Done button. Could you try it again, but then by executing feedreader from the terminal and sharing the output? Make sure to kill the previous process, otherwise nothing happens.

Are you sure you selected the right DecSync directory? Maybe the selected one is one level below or above the right one by accident.

Hi, here is the output from executing feedreader via terminal: `(feedreader:4406): feedreader-CRITICAL **: 16:06:28.043: FeedServer: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files

** (feedreader:4406): CRITICAL **: 16:06:28.043: feed_reader_decsync_utils_getDecsyncDir: assertion 'self != NULL' failed `

Do those errors lead to the issue I'm having?

I just discovered that using FeedReader when executed from terminal will show more output when doing things inside FeedReader. So here is the log from starting FeedReader via terminal & then immediately replacing the current DecSync account with a new one.

I searched a bit and found the following issue: Foundry376/Mailspring#681. It looks like you have to install gnome-keyring. I think I saw a similar issue in the upstream FeedReader. But it is archived now, so the issues aren't visible anymore...
