Description of problem: M7beta1 early Dec 2018 5 desktop install from Classic ISO. Launching the application from the Gnome 'menu' goes nowhere. It works from other desktops (Plasma, Mate, XFCE; cannot find it in LXDE). Do not know the equivalent command to try it from a terminal for more info. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): As above. Cannot find the pkg name for its ID. How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try launching the application from Gnome Activities menu or search result.
"Openbox is a window manager for the X11 windowing system." Should it be possible to open its configuration manager in Gnome? (Wayland, right?)

I believe you're talking about obconf. Never tried it in other DE's other than Openbox/X11, so I've no clue if it should work with Wayland. Cheers, Stig
Thanks Stig; 'obconf' it is! Just tried it from M6 LXDE, it works here too. (In reply to Marja Van Waes from comment #1) > "Openbox is a window manager for the X11 windowing system." > Should it be possible to open its configuration manager in Gnome? (Wayland, > right?) Yes, Wayland. Moot point. If it is technically impossible to run it from Gnome (Wayland), its launch icon etc should be removed from Gnome. Not for me to judge. I will try the command from a terminal to get some O/P. Later, but soon.
From Gnome: $ obconf Segmentation fault (core dumped)
I see the same and believe Wayland is the cause. I've no idea if this can be fixed. Cheers, Stig
M7beta3 6 desktop Classic 64-bit install, real hardware, GNOME from SDDM (I think Wayland). obconf-2.0.4-8.mga7 It *does* now start correctly from both the menu, and command line: $ obconf $
