Issues running the application on Ubuntu 24.04

[Gositi]

Hi!

I am trying out Setzer (version 62, from the repos) on the new Ubuntu 24.04 (in a VM) and I am facing issues running the app. Instead, I get this:

simon@boxes:~$ setzer
MESA: error: ZINK: failed to choose pdev
libEGL warning: egl: failed to create dri2 screen
/usr/bin/setzer:133: DeprecationWarning: Gtk.Widget.show is deprecated
  self.main_window.show()
bwrap: setting up uid map: Permission denied

** (setzer:10884): ERROR **: 12:02:01.439: Failed to fully launch dbus-proxy: Child process exited with code 1
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)
simon@boxes:~$

After searching around a bit on similar issues I believe it's an instance of https://bugs.launchpad.net/apparmor/+bug/2046844 and copying the workaround at hugolabe/Wike#181 appears to work:

simon@boxes:~$ cat /etc/apparmor.d/setzer
# This profile allows everything and only exists to give the
# application a name instead of having the label "unconfined"

abi <abi/4.0>,
include <tunables/global>

profile setzer /usr/bin/setzer flags=(unconfined) {
  userns,

  # Site-specific additions and overrides. See local/README for details.
  include if exists <local/setzer>
}
simon@boxes:~$ 

I have no idea exactly what this does though, besides that it somehow makes apparmor happy!

Since I am running a slightly older version you are maybe already aware about this, but if not I thought you should know! In any case, the version on the Ubuntu repos should be updated.

Thanks for reporting this. In newer versions the deprecated function is no longer used. Other than that, I think this belongs in the Ubuntu bugtracker.

Ok, thanks for the reply. I'm not very used to reporting issues, but I will take it to the Ubuntu bugtracker.
