How can I solve this issue?

[egmontkob]

Looks the same as #1105. The dev/gsemet branch works for me currently, the fixes are apparently yet to be merged back to master by the developer.

[gsemet]

dev/gsemet has been merged on master. so you should be able to take the HEAD and should work

[couragelfyang]

@stibbons
Well, I don't think so. I've remake the latest code and get same error.

[gsemet]

make install-system works on debian/ubuntu. You are using arch, isn't ? never used it, is there an installer ready to go to start it on a wm ?

[aichingm]

I think this is a different error, nothing related to packaging. I can trigger it by setting Run command as a login shell

@narukamiko are you using the Run command as a login shell option?

[couragelfyang]

@aichingm
I don't know. Now I cannot launch guake so I cannot check the configuration.

[aichingm]

@narukamiko could you try to run it from my branch?

git clone https://github.com/aichingm/guake
git checkout fix-login-shell
make dev
make run

[couragelfyang]

@aichingm
Yes, it works. So this branch will be merged to master? When?

[aichingm]

Good, I will open a pr.

@narukamiko for the moment do this:

1. install from my branch
2. disable the Run command as a login shell option.
3. install from current master
4. don't turn Run command as a login shell on until my pr is merged into master

Note: I force pushed an commit onto my branch so reclone the whole repo or force pull!
