AppImage hanging on startup

[waldner]

Running latest KopiaUI-0.10.6.AppImage under arch linux. When I run the executable, I get a blank window and the following in the terminal:

$ ./KopiaUI-0.10.6.AppImage 
12:50:45.095 › failed to load
[312058:0405/125045.370188:ERROR:sandbox_linux.cc(377)] InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process.

the failed to load message repeats forever until I close the (blank) window.

This is still happening with 0.10.7.

I was having the same problem on Arch Linux.

In the logs in ~/.cache/kopia/cli-logs/ was the following line:

2022-06-07T10:00:48.908749Z ERROR kopia/cli listen error: listen tcp: lookup localhost on 127.0.0.1:53: no such host

I searched for this online, and the solution presented was to add 127.0.0.1 localhost to /etc/hosts (inconshreveable/ngrok#484 (comment)). I did that and now it works.

Excellent! That solved it for me too. Thanks!
