Hi everyone, I was trying to get to work 'termfair' layout from this
good old module: https://github.com/vain/awesome-vain
This is what I got: http://pastebin.com/gecFkxj0
However I keep getting this error:
"/usr/share/lua/5.2/lgi/override/Pango.lua:60: bad argument #3 to
'pango_layout_set_text' (string expected, got nil)"
and I don't understand how it's caused and how could I fix it.
Any clue?
You are calling box:set_text(nil) somewhere on a wibox.widget.textbox, but "nil"
is not a valid string. This used to work in 3.4. However, no idea where you are
doing this and I can't really see from your provided pastes.
I would suggest a hack like this:
local PL = require("lgi").Pango.Layout
local set_text = PL.set_text
function PL._method:set_text(text, len)
if text == nil then
print(debug.traceback())
end
return set_text(self, text, len)
end
That should print a traceback right before the error so that you can see where
this "nil" is coming from.
Cheers,
Uli
