Hey, I have:
Debian Unstable
64-bit
Cinnamon DE
Linux dummy 5.4.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.4.19-1 (2020-02-13) x86_64
GNU/Linux
I update obsessively.
Just today, gedit will not start, as user. I logged in (as usual) as
user. Gedit will not start from the GUI. It just shows a small rotating
symbol indicating an application program trying to start, for about 15
seconds, then it disappears.
Gedit will not start from Gnome Termminal, as user. Here's what I get:
dummy@dummy:~$ gedit
(gedit:2229): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 18:01:47.152: Settings schema
'org.gnome.Terminal.Legacy.Profile' does not contain a key named
'allow-bold'
Trace/breakpoint trap
dummy@dummy:~$
A web search engine showed various somewhat similar entries, but nothing
exactly the same, and generally above my competence level.
But if I do, in Gnome Terminal:
sudo gedit
Gedit DOES start, but with no customizations, except perhaps
default customizations for the root user.
I tried:
sudo aptitude reinstall gedit
No change.
I started to try:
sudo aptitude purge gedit
but canceled that after I got this:
dummy@dummy:~$ sudo aptitude purge gedit

The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Keep the following packages at their current version:
1) gedit [3.36.0-3 (now, unstable)]
2) gedit-common [3.36.0-3 (now, unstable)]
3) libamtk-5-0 [5.0.2-1 (now, unstable)]
4) libamtk-5-common [5.0.2-1 (now, unstable)]
5) libtepl-4-0 [4.4.0-1 (now, unstable)]
Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] q
Abandoning all efforts to resolve these dependencies.
Abort.

For what it's worth:
dummy@dummy:~$ sudo ls /usr/bin/gedit
[sudo] password for dummy:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15K Mar 9 10:11 /usr/bin/gedit*
And I did check the Debian bug reports. I did not see anything that
seemed to be an obvious cause of my problem - but there were a
surprisingly large amount of bugs for gedit!
Any ideas?
Maybe:
1. Move or delete ~/.config/gedit
2. Reset Gedit dconf settings:
- all settings with dconf command line: `dconf reset -f /org/gnome/gedit/`
- or with dconf-editor GUI (from package with the same name). Right
click on a folder allows to reset all sub-keys
