Description Nicolas Nicolas 2020-05-16 22:05:38 CEST

Hello,

alacarte and menulibre are not running under Gnome 3.32.

When launched from a terminal, the same traceback as in bug 12153 is displayed (even gnome-menus package is installed).

usertest@mageia7-test ~]$ alacarte

As suggested in the above mentionned bug, creating a symbolic link allow both software to be launched.

"symlinking /etc/xdg/gnome/menus/gnome-applications.menu to /etc/xdg/menus/"
> creating a symbolic link allow both software to be launched.
With 'gnome-menus-3.32.0-1.mga7' installed, I reproduced this bug exactly on both counts.

The 'alarcarte' part of this bug is a duplicate of bug 25361.

However, I am leaving this open for 'menulibre', which does not crash but does not go anywhere.
Assigning to its active maintainer wally.

Comment 2 Jani Välimaa 2020-05-18 19:00:40 CEST

What does 'echo $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS' and 'echo $XDG_MENU_PREFIX' output in GNOME?

Comment 3 Nicolas Nicolas 2020-05-18 22:30:10 CEST

Hello,

Here is what i get from the terminal ( selected choice gnome):

[usertest@mageia7-test ~]$ echo $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS

[usertest@mageia7-test ~]$ echo $XDG_MENU_PREFIX
gnome-
[usertest@mageia7-test ~]$

Comment 4 Jani Välimaa 2020-05-19 19:16:16 CEST

What if you do 'export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg/gnome:/etc/xdg' before launching?

But make sure you don't have the symlink mentioned in bug 12153 comment 3.

Comment 5 Nicolas Nicolas 2020-05-20 07:50:16 CEST

Hello,

When the XDG_CONFIG_DIRS is set, menulibre is launched.

This bug report will be closed OLD if there is no further notice within 1st September 2021.

Comment 8 Marja Van Waes 2021-09-07 14:10:21 CEST

Hi bug reporter and hi assignee and others involved,

Please reopen this bug report if it is still valid for Mageia 8 or 9(cauldron), and change "Version:" in the upper left of this report accordingly.

This report is being closed as OLD because it was filed against Mageia 7, for which  support ended on June 30th 2021.

Thanks,
Marja
