Hello Guix, After I install Gajim from Guix on Trisquel (I have also icecat and a few other things installed from Guix), when I try opening a MATE session, I have the background screen for about 25 seconds, then a brief black screen and I am back to the session greeter.
If I log in via a console, roll back to before I installed gajim, and then try opening a MATE session again, it works fine. When I log in with in a console, if gajim is installed, I have the following additional environment variables set (which are not set when gajim is not installed or I rolled back): GUIX_PYTHONPATH=/home/david/.guix-profile/lib/python3.10/site-package GIO_EXTRA_MODULES=/home/david/.guix-profile/lib/gio/modules I checked the journal and noticed the following: Starting Accessibility services bus... at-spi-bus-launcher[1410]: /usr/libexec/at-spi-bus-launcher: symbol lookup error: /home/david/.guix-profile/lib/gio/modules/libdconfsettings.so: undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_pointer at-spi-dbus-bus.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=127/n/a at-spi-dbus-bus.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. I see that there is a libdconfsettings.so in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux- gnu/gio/modules/ which is from Trisquel. I am guessing that this at-spi-bis- launcher might be from Trisquel and due to the variable, it is trying to use libdconfsettings.so from Guix, which does not work and make it terminate. However, I have no clue what role this at-spi-bus-launcher exactly has. Could its failure be why the MATE session fails to open? How is GIO_EXTRA_MODULES set by Guix? Is it really needed for Gajim? If so, is there a way to make this GIO_EXTRA_MODULES only visible to Guix executables and not affect Trisquel ones?
