Installation Method

Xournal++ Version

1.2.3

libgtk Version

3.24.41

Bug Description

Upon starting Xournal++ in Wayland, it crashes before a window appears. After switching back to X11, it runs normally (and prompts to open a bug report).

Expected Behaviour

The app should open.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Log out
2. Change desktop selection from lockscreen to KDE (Wayland)
3. Log in
4. Attempt to launch Xournal++

Additional Context

I'm using a laptop with a touchscreen, if that makes any difference. In X11, the app works perfectly.

Could you try out the AppImage (available here) and see if you encounter the same problem with it?

[rolandlo]

It's probably not related to the problem, but let me note, that the warning

WARNING : xopp :: XournalMain: System default locale could not be set.
 - Caused by: locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid
 - Note that it is not supported to set the locale using mingw-w64 on windows.

is not very helpful on Linux.

[RandomSpaceship]

I can't run the AppImage file at all, in X11 or Wayland. Trying to run it in Dolphin and zsh both error with No such file or directory, running it in bash gives bash: ./xournalpp.AppImage: cannot execute: required file not found, and running it with appimage-run gives the following error log:

xournalpp.AppImage installed in /home/james/.cache/appimage-run/99c2e385cdfef2eb59ac367214fc37c31855779e0910990b0f1612d7ad339f8b

Which persists regardless of whether or not libthai is actually installed.

However, when I ran the xournalpp command from the terminal, it gave a very different (and much more useful) error log:

Since it complained about an assertion failure finding Adwaita icons, I installed the gnome.adwaita-icon-theme package, and it runs now - and even respects my system zoom level! I still can't get the AppImage running though weirdly enough, even though the main executable is happy. I've done a quick test and it all seems to be working normally (pressure sensitivity, palm rejection, stylus buttons).

TLDR: Running Xournal++ from the command line gave a more useful error, it was failing to find Adwaita icons. Installing that package made the installed executable run, even though the AppImage fails to for other reasons.

Edit: I think it might be possible to add the icon theme as a dependency in the upstream nixpkgs repository if it's not actually an issue with Xournal++. I'm happy to try and do that when I have time if needed. Additionally, if you think the issues with the AppImage are worth looking into, I'm happy to help with whatever you need for that.

[RandomSpaceship]

With a proper error message to search, I've found that it appears to be already reported on the nixpkgs side here. No idea what the libthai stuff is all about, but it seems that the icons issue is an artifact of something on the NixOS side, and actually has nothing to do with Xournal++ code.
