Hello,

I use gnumeric-1.12.31 on GNOME, and i don't have this problem.

I installed the same version on Guix on top of Debian - but I use
i3wm. No dbus - so maybe that is the root of the problem?

GSettings search its 'gschemas.compiled' files under environment
variable `$GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR` and then under each directory of
`$XDG_DATA_DIRS/share/glib-2.0/schemas`.  The file can contain multiple
entries, compiled from XML gsettings schemas files provided by
applications.

We don't have profile hook to build 'gschemas.compiled', so the one in
profile only can contains one package's schemas, which is not helpful as
schemas from other (particularly gtk+) are required too.

Current way to handle this is to wrap binaries using gsettings with
XDG_DATA_DIRS, as does by `glib-or-gtk-build-system`.

org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser bomb out fix (aka GNOME Settings Schemas)

[Pjotr Prins]

I finally found a way of getting around the feared 

  (gnumeric:1974): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema 'org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser' is not installed

by setting XDG_DATA_DIRS before running a GTK tool (gnumeric, gnucash,
some browsers):

  env XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/local/share:/usr/share ~/.guix-profile/bin/gnumeric

This is on a Debian base distribution. Not sure what package is
missing on Guix, but there appears to be a missing dependency.

Could this be related to this (occurring on GuixSD) ?

I think so. The missing icons are also reproducible in gnumeric.

Re: org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser bomb out fix (aka GNOME Settings Schemas)

[Pjotr Prins]

Here is another for icecat:

(icecat:9674): Gtk-WARNING **: Could not find the icon
'gtk-go-back-ltr'. The 'hicolor' theme
was not found either, perhaps you need to install it.

I guess it ought to go into debbugs.

This bumped the whole thread of 'Ring' for me back into presence. What
happened to it? Which difficulties are there? left?

This might also be related to some of the browser crashes people

[Patch 0/10] Add Ring

[Lukas Gradl]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 430 bytes --]


Hello Guix!

The following patch series adds Ring, a distributed multimedia
communications program.

There is one issue that I can not figure out: The program ring.cx throws
an error if evolution-data-server is not installed in the same profile.
I hence propagated evolution-data-server, but this does not seem to
solve the issue.  If evolution-data-server is installed, it works fine.

Thank you for any feedback!

Best,
Lukas

Hmm. Why is it propagated? Most other packages seem to be able to use it as a regular input just fine. Are they wrong?

I was not sure how to handle this properly.  The package libring
provides a program 'dring', which is a daemon that, as far as I
understand, does all the communication with peers on the internet.  So
in order to place a call, one first needs to run 'dring &' and then
start the ring-client-gnome.  If the ring daemon is not running, then
ring-client-gnome won't do anything useful, it will just error out on
startup.

Looking at the manual, this does not justify propagation.  My intention
was that people can just install ring-client-gnome in a profile and it
will work.  If libring is not propagated, it will also need to be
installed by hand.

Is there a good way to specify this kind of runtime requirement?  I
could also just move it to 'inputs' and put a hint in the description
that libring should be installed alongside ring-client-gnome.

This is a similar issue.  I use ratpoison and do not have
evolution-data-server in my profile.  Then, if I do this:

The main window pops up and it works.  I tried to solve this by
propagating evolution-data-server, however, the same thing still
happens.  If evolution-data-server is not explicitly installed, then
ring-client-gnome doesn't find it.  I am not sure how to proceed on
this.  I thought I had seen the same behavior with the package
'gnome-calendar' which also uses evolution-data-server, however, I am
not able to reproduce it now:

It fails in both cases.

To come back to your question:  I am not fully convinced that other
packages using evolution-data-server are able to properly use it as an
input.  I am pretty sure that propagating evolution-data-server does not
make it a lot better.  Should I move it to 'inputs'?


Thank you for your review!
Best,
Lukas

GNOME Settings Schemas - How are they searched for?

I think it's fine to be propagated in this case - but let's see what the others say.

Good question.

Hmmm... I don't use GNOME - so no idea. I have to defer to people more knowledgeable about it. How does a GNOME program find other program's settings schemas in Guix? Also it seems it's trying to use dbus (?) in order to start the evolution data server. How is that searched for?

I am hitting a similar problem with gnumeric. Install latest, open
spreadsheet, hit 'safe as' and you get:

(gnumeric:1974): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema 'org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser' is not installed

(bit annoying as some work got lost) but easy to reproduce.

This issue suggests a solution:

  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9678301/can-not-use-gtk3-filechooser-on-mac-osx#9684626

i.e., the builder needs to run glib-compile-schemas [path to
org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema]. There is a compiled schema in
the path, but maybe not for FileChooser and others.
