There has already been a discussion about such an error involving gdg (gnu debug). IIRC, such error is related to some corrupted config or db file. Might be worth restoring the files at the time you updated to 4.4 and see what happens...

Re: Fwd: [darktable-user] darktable suddenly refuses to launch on Manjaro
After some considerable level of frustration I backed-up the .config folder and then totally removed dt from my system. I then reinstalled from scratch but reused just a couple of the old config files before totally rebuilding the library. In the process I lost a couple of small convenience settings but the frustration is gone as everything is now in tip-top shape.

Great, as dt is working with the default config, I assume that with your system is everything fine. You could double-check and enable OpenCL with the default config and see if dt still works. If you dn't have some external control panels (I think these are interfaced over MIDI), I would neither mind at the moment about the libportmidi, nor the fontconfig error. No, I don't think I have a backup of my original config. Darktabe usually writes periodic snapshots of the config/library itself. So I would now try to: 1) First, make a backup of the current config directory. 2) Copy the default darktablerc into your config: $ cp ~/.config/darktable/test/darktablerc ~/.config/darktable/ 3) Roll back the library.db and data.db from darktable's own snapshots, from most recent to oldest, e.g. $ cd ~/.config/darktable $ cp data.db-snp-20230716172500 data.db $ cp library.db-snp-20230716172500 library.db Check inbetween if dt is starting up. Cumbersome task, but if you don't want to start again from a default configuration, that's my best guess... Regards, Manuel. When I launched it from the command line, although it launched, the command line gave me this:    ~  darktable --configdir ~/.config/darktable/test  1 ✘ Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf", line 29: not well-formed (invalid token) Fontconfig error: Cannot load config file from /etc/fonts/fonts.conf 1.3400 [lib_load_module] failed to open `midi': libportmidi.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Not sure if anyone understands what all that means, and if that might be the cause of the issue? darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail todarktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail todarktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org

You should be able to just start darktable from a terminal emulator like "Konsole" by typing "darktable" at the prompt. And there's no reason gbd should be called in that case. Also, is it possible you had done a system update without immediately rebooting the system, and in that case, did darktable stop working after a reboot (or restart, logout/login cycle)? Programs don't just stop working on a system where nothing changed... > > -- Forwarded message - > From: Jesus Arocho > Date: Fri, Aug 25, 2023 at 10:19 PM > Subject: Re: [darktable-user] darktable suddenly refuses to launch on > Manjaro > To: Bruce Williams > > > > On 8/25/23 07:45, Bruce Williams wrote: > > Hi all, > I'm running Manjaro, and have had darktable 4.4 running just fine in recent > days. > But tonight, I tried to launch it, the icon appears for a second, and then > disappears. > System monitor does not show it amongst the running applications. > > System specs: > > Operating System: Manjaro Linux > KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.7 > KDE Frameworks Version: 5.108.0 > Qt Version: 5.15.10 > Kernel Version: 6.1.44-1-MANJARO (64-bit) > Graphics Platform: X11 > Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Eight-Core Processor > Memory: 31.3 GiB of RAM > Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070/PCIe/SSE2 > Manufacturer: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. > Product Name: MS-7B79 > System Version: 2.0 > > I do not have auto updating of the system running due to some issues with > the GUI version of PAMAC.
