Bug#920139: sddm: GTK and GNOME: Applications won't launch due error of glib2

[Bernhard Übelacker <bernhardu@mailbox.org>]

Control: tags 920139 + unreproducible moreinfo


Hello Adrian Immanuel,
I am sorry for the late reply.

First a question: Do you still observe this fault?


I took a look today inside the md5sums you supplied
and tried to reproduce this setup inside a VM.

Unfortunately I found following old packages that are not
packaged in Debian anymore or maybe not installed in the
latest version:

  nautilus-pastebin: last built 2012, found just at snapshot.debian.org
  geoclue: last in jessie
  easytag: not in the lastest version?
  command-runner-applet: last in jessie
  gnome-search-tool: last in stretch
  sflphone-gnome: last in stretch

Can you please have a look at these packages, if you
really use them?
If not you might uninstall them and test if you still
can observe the not launching applications?

If you use synaptic, there should be a folder with outdated packages.


However, I tried to put your gsettings.compiled into that VM
and could login into GNOME and GNOME Classic sessions without
hitting that fault (traps: gnome-session-b...).

Kind regards,
Bernhard
