System

Ubuntu 23.04

[Nutjob]

Got the exact same crash and log with the snap version on Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS. Up until yesterday it worked fine.

[johnfactotum]

Is this from using the Snap package?

[Nutjob]

Is this from using the Snap package?

In my case, yes. I just updated and now it has the same crash and error log as described by @videni

Never thought, this error may come up in user machines. So, unexpected to me. But, probably this should fix it.

sudo /usr/lib/snapd/snap-discard-ns foliate

sudo /usr/lib/snapd/snap-discard-ns foliate

Just tested it, it works now!

Interesting! Let me take this to the forum. This is actually a regression by snapd for third party content snaps.

To keep a track on this issue.

[videni]

yes, I also use snap package

sudo /usr/lib/snapd/snap-discard-ns foliate

this one works

[soumyaDghosh]

@johnfactotum keep this open for now please.

Just noticed I can no longer add books to the library, foliate crashes immediately when I do. This is still the Snap package, here's the log:

Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.avail/53-monospace-lcd-filter.conf", line 10: Having multiple values in isn't supported and may not work as expected /usr/share/libdrm/amdgpu.ids: No such file or directory /usr/share/libdrm/amdgpu.ids: No such file or directory

And I just noticed it also no longer even open books that were already in the library, here's the crash log for that one:

[soumyaDghosh]

Same error. Rerun the command above. It'll be fixed. Until you face this in future, please continue doing so. This is a snapd regression third party content snaps and I have created an issue in the forum. Hope it'll fixed soon.

Thanks for the quick update, let's hope this gets fixed soon upstream.
