Nyxt 2.2.2 crashes when making a search on void linux

[wbehrens-on-gh]

Describe the bug
I built nyxt from source on void linux and ran the resulting binary, I then tried to open a new url by searching something in the prompt. I then get the error

** (nyxt:19374): ERROR **: 14:19:56.352: GApplication is required for xdg-desktop-portal access in the WebKit sandbox.

Same here. I suspect that the reason is relateed to the following update per 02.11.2021:

Probably the same as #1840, stay tuned we are going to post a patch soon.

[dtw-waleee]

@WilliamBehrens @fbmnds I had the exact same error on clearlinux after it updated webkit2gtk to 2.34 and introduced a compatibility .so for 2.33. The stopgap measure that worked for me was to build nyxt with the gtk-renderer instead of the gi-gtk one, (if you build with the makefile, NYXT_RENDERER=gtk make ... ).

[wbehrens-on-gh]

@dtw-waleee That didn't fix it, same issue. I'll wait for the patch

[wbehrens-on-gh]

@Ambrevar When you say you're going to post a patch where do you post them? like a patch file or is it just going to be a pr?

[fbmnds]

@dtw-waleee same issue with gtk like @WilliamBehrens. Is there perhaps an additional dependency to be considered?

[fbmnds]

I had to update quicklisp in order to have the dependency on cluffer resolved, but still no success with version 2.2.2. I decided to downgrade to 2.2.0 which works.

I guess, issue #1855 is related.

[guojing0]

@fbmnds I downgraded to 2.2.0 and still could not get X11 window displayed when building from source :)

[fbmnds]

I had to clean up the fasl files under /home/dev/.cache/common-lisp/sbcl-2.0.1.debian-linux-x64/home/dev/projects/nyxt/_build/ in order to get a working binary.

[guojing0]

@fbmnds Thank you for the advice. Still same as I mentioned in #1855 :)

[Ambrevar]

@WilliamBehrens The fix is going to be posted as a PR or directly merged onto master / 2-series.

[Ambrevar]

The issue seems to be related to the recent WebKitGTK 2.34 update.

[ag91]

as a workaround, run this in your terminal export WEBKIT_FORCE_SANDBOX=0

[Ambrevar]

All WebKitGTK 2.34-related hangs / crashes should be fixed on master since c2f1e61.

We had to stop enforcing the sandboxing though. We are tackling this in a separate issue, see #1781.
