Hi, All:

The system is guixSD 0.14 with standard desktop for xfce and GNOME.

Using the standard web browser, try to click on the "import bookmark" menu.
The Web browser silently exits.

Does anybody have the same issue?

best regards,
wxie

I just tried it, and the same issue happens for me on my system based on
the 'core-updates' branch.  It writes the following to stdout/stderr
just before exiting:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(epiphany:1178): GLib-CRITICAL **: 14:01:59.053: g_io_channel_read_line: assertion 'channel != NULL' failed
free(): invalid pointer
Aborted
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

In the meantime, you might consider trying GNU IceCat, which I suspect
has seen more usage and testing by GuixSD users.

Thanks, Mark.

I will try IceCat.

By the way, I also noticed that "import/export bookmark" entries are not
translated into Chinese. Do you know where I can submit translation issues
for Chinese for guixSD?

Those translation files are part of the upstream Epiphany web browser
project, which is part of GNOME.  I guess that this is the file that
requires an update to add those translation entries:

  https://git.gnome.org/browse/epiphany/tree/po/zh_CN.po

I'm not sure off-hand how upstream prefers to receive translation
updates, but it's probably sufficient to send a patch here:

  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=epiphany

Here's more information on the GNOME translation project, which might be
useful:

  https://wiki.gnome.org/TranslationProject

     Regards,
       Mark

Sorry, I meant to write "send a bug report".  That would be sufficient,
and very helpful.  Sending a patch would be even better, but it's not
required.

Actually, it might be better to report it for product "l10n":

  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=l10n

as suggested by the "Report an incorrect translation for your language"
link on this page:

Thank you for your problem reports.  They are quite helpful.

    Regards,

Thank you, Mark.

This is a lot of information. I will check the GNOME translation page and
decide what to do.

best regards,

I can't reproduce this bug using GuixSD with GNOME with a recent version
of Guix [0], so I think it must have been fixed upstream.

[0] I tried on commit 4db7a9dc663c5b26e45ec35538bf68ff87acdf7b
(linux-modules: Raise an error when a kernel module cannot be found.).
