Gthumb crashes

General system Applications

Has anyone experiences this running Gthumb: (org.gnome.gThumb:2130): GLib-CRITICAL **: 10:21:05.338: g_strsplit: assertion ‘string != NULL’ failed
Segmentation fault (core dumped) gthumb

This started today. I have re-installed Gthumb, but to no avail. I am running Endeavouros in a VM if that makes any difference. A month or two ago I also had trouble with Meson but I don’t know how or if they could be connected.

This is the output of inxi -Gxxx

The missing OpenGL context within your VM seems to be very suspicious.

Fixed it. Your comment that no GL data was available led me to think about a problem I had with MESA about 3 or 4 months ago. As a result I had to replace the running MESA with another version which had been provided I believe by the admin here. Everytime I updated my system Pacman would warn about the version of MESA I had locked to not upgrade, So I unlocked it, upgraded MESA and problem solved. This was the MESA problem back in May :

. Gthumb runs fine now. Thanks
