Starting synfigstudioa, either from a terminal oe from the menu does not work.From the terminal, the application stops with a segmentation fault. This application runs well with Mageia 8. The easiest way perhaps to reproduce this issue is to use the live Mageia 9, plasma-x86_64 version. As such, it looks not possible to use synfigstudio.
Created attachment 14119 [details] CLI output when starting synfigstudio in cauldron In cauldron, with the same synfigstudio version & release as in Mga9, the program crashes, too. See attachment. The last two lines before being notified of the segfault are: (synfigstudio:139001): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 21:40:26.116: g_object_get_qdata: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (synfigstudio:139001): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 21:40:26.116: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed I suppose it can run without plugins? There are also these lines: mlt_repository_init: no plugins found in "/usr/lib64/mlt-7" synfig(139079) [21:41:37] warning: Can't read plugin directory: Error opening directory “/home/marja/.config/synfig/plugins”: No such file or directory

(In reply to Marja Van Waes from comment #2) > Assigning to the registered maintainer. Hi, Is there any news about this issue? Despite keeping my system updated, I am still unable to use synfigstudio on my system. For information, the error related to the pluugins directory can probably be solved by simply creating it outsied the program. Furtermore, I discovered that if I use a full new installation of Mageia (instead of an upgrade or from using the live distribution) then synfigstudio seems to work properly . As far as my system is concerned installing from scratch Mageia 9 would involved a lot of work due to the configuration I am using. If I remember well, I think I installed Mageia from the live distribution and simply updated the system each time it was necessary. Could thee be a difference beteeen the full installation version and the live version regarding possible libraries? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Pascal. PS: Being still in January, I wish all the people from Mageia teams a very healthy and happy new year.
Thanks Pascal, best wishes from us to you, too. CC'ing ghibo, who was the last one to push synfig(studio)

Hi, Trying to understand a bit further this issue, I found 2 interesting points. Her they are with the hope it can help you... 1- Running synfigstudio in GDB, I get the following information . . . synfig(269850) [19:08:38] info: Loading Settings... [New Thread 0x7fffb7fff6c0 (LWP 269885)] [New Thread 0x7fffb77fe6c0 (LWP 269886)] [Thread 0x7fffb7fff6c0 (LWP 269885) exited] [Thread 0x7fffb77fe6c0 (LWP 269886) exited] synfig(269850) [19:08:38] info: Init Tools... Thread 1 "synfigstudio" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007ffff7fbd99e in idle_cb () from /usr/lib64/gtk-3.0/modules/libcanberra-gtk-module.so (gdb) 2- If I remember correctly, I installed Mageia 9 from scratch on a dual-boot laptop (the other OS is Kubuntu). I installed and then checked synfigstudio and it worked well. I continued to install various software mainly dealing with photo and video processing. I fixed some issues like for instance the laptop not being able to wake up from hibernate. Once I thought my laptop was more or less functional, I checked by curiosity synfigstudio. Unfortunately it does not work anymore.
The crash occurs in libcanberra. The fix for libcanberra is this: https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/libcanberra/-/raw/debian/latest/debian/patches/gtk-module-Handle-display-closing-gracefully.patch?ref_type=heads applying this patch to current libcanberra would make synfigstudio not crashing anymore. Feel free to open a new bug for libcanberra and apply this patch.
So ok let's try the fix done for both mga9 and Cauldron!
