Fails to start on ArchLinux.

[Joseph Borg]

I guess due some updates of python2-gconf packages, MenuLibre fails to start with this output

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gobject/constants.py:24: Warning: g_boxed_type_register_static: assertion `g_type_from_name (name) == 0' failed

I was able to run it before just fine.

Good day,

What desktop environment (Xfce, Gnome, etc) are you running MenuLibre in?

Thanks,
Sean

I'm facing the exact same error.

Using:
Release 12.04 (precise) 32-bit
Kernel Linux 3.5.0-030500-generic
GNOME 3.4.2
Unity

Installed MenuLibre today, won't run from GUI, checked in Terminal, getting exact same error.

Im running GNOME Shell on 64-bit Arch.
The package started working again, i dont know if it's due some upgrades. I still get some error messages.

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gobject/constants.py:24: Warning: g_boxed_type_register_static: assertion `g_type_from_name (name) == 0' failed

I think I found and resolved the issue. A fix should be out in less than an hour, version 12.08.2

And btw, thanks! I've been meaning to get Arch set up for some time, and you provided just the catalyst I needed! :-)

I've upgraded to 12.08.2 and I'm having this same error (but with different line numbers).

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04, in Pantheon environment.

[Arturo Torres Sánchez (r2d2.art2005)]

I did some debugging, and apparently it's my fault: I have a folder “hicolor” inside ~/.icons, but it's empty. My current theme (as all themes, I think) inherits from hicolor, and when it looks for ~/.icons/hicolor/index.theme, which doesn't exist, it stops.

I also get the same error in new version:

Thanks for all your patience. I have a fix that should resolve everyone's issues coming later today. :-) (It's already in the bzr branch).

to fix the error you should know that "Ubuntu-Mono-Dark" doesn't use caps, it's "ubuntu-mono-dark"

I've copied and rename it with caps just to see it working!

thx for your work!
