Unable to change chat fonts

[julioea]

Running on Archlinux
Software versions
syncplay 1.6.5-1
python 3.8.3-1
python-twisted 20.3.0-1
python-pyside 1.2.4-10
python-pyside-common 1.2.4-10

When I try to change the font settings through the GUI but they always returns to the default value.

Workaround:
Changing default settings in constants.py.

Log:

  File "/usr/lib/syncplay/syncplay/ui/GuiConfiguration.py", line 1016, in <lambda>
    self.chatOutputFontButton.released.connect(lambda: self.fontDialog("chatOutput"))
  File "/usr/lib/syncplay/syncplay/ui/GuiConfiguration.py", line 1059, in fontDialog
    self.config[configName + "FontFamily"] = value.family()
AttributeError: 'bool' object has no attribute 'family'```

It works fine for me on Windows so it might be a Linux/Ubuntu (or Linux implementation of Python or PySide) issue.

I tried changing the chat font, but it didn't work

• Manually change the font by modifying the configuration file (syncplay.ini / .syncplay).
• The relevant options for chat inputbe in the [gui] group are: chatInputFontFamily, chatInputRelativeFontSize, chatInputFontWeight, chatInputFontUnderline, and chatInputFontColor.
• The relevant options for chat output in the [gui] group are: chatOutputFontFamily, chatOutputRelativeFontSize, chatOutputFontWeight, and chatOutputFontUnderline.

I'm not sure what was the original cause of this problem, but I haven't managed to reproduce it on Debian 11 with Syncplay 1.6.7. So it's probably not something Linux specific, but might be either related to the specific config @julioea is running or Arch in general.

I'd assume that by now arch has latest pyside2 and such, does the problem still occur?
