BUG: client 3.11.0 problems on Linux Mint (Mate / Cinnamon)

[stullekovski]

Hi,

just to let you know, there are some issues with the latest desktop client version.

Mint Cinnamon: icon is broken
nextcloud/desktop#6312

Mint Mate: not starting at all
nextcloud/desktop#6313

Hope you can figure it out.
Thanks a lot.

I have the same problem. I'm also on Linux Mint MATE edition. Also running Nextloud-desktop 3.11.0.

How to reproduce:

1. Launching the flatpak version

What happens:
Nextcloud hangs and eat a lot of CPU. The Nextcloud window never appears. The nextcloud icon doesn't show up in the tray. The only way to end the CPU eating is to kill the process.

Expected result:
The Nextcloud window appears.

Other info:
I tried to launch via the command line. Here's the log:

# flatpak run com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud

And then it keeps repeating this warning 10+ times per second 😅

My system is in French. This part of the error message Impossible de créer le connecteur : Trop de fichiers ouverts means something like: "Impossible to create the connector: Too many files open."

Hi, I did a downgrade of the flatpak:

flatpak list
flatpak remote-info --log flathub com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud
sudo flatpak update --commit=08e53a14920ec5b626ff13a7c65f41185241cbcdd5a3e5dd5646a27393433236 com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud

Same problem here:

** (process:9725): WARNING **: 04:20:09.350: Failed to connect to bus: Unable to create socket: Too many open files

It goes on forever until my desktop crashes back to the login manager, reverting to 08e53a14920ec5b626ff13a7c65f41185241cbcdd5a3e5dd5646a27393433236 fixed the issue (but I still got the failed to migrate window on the first run)

Seems like it is not actually related to either v 3.11 or Mint or any specific DE.

Saw it in various places for people using various distros and DEs (Fedora/GNOME here).

There are three 3.11 flatpak builds for now:

Downgrading to "Update desktop.git to 3.11.0 (03b171c)" or "Update 0.14.1.tar.gz to 0.14.2 (646b3d3)" - no issue, nextclod runs and shows the icon, everything seems to be fine.

So, looks like there is sth wrong with latest build from 20.12, my guess would be PR #130 and that is what causes the issue.

Same here with Linux Mint Cinnamon. Icon is broken, downgrade works...

I can confirm it's working now after reverting gnome-theming related changes.
