Check the existence of dconf-editor's schema #1447

City-busz · 2024-06-20T01:22:57Z

We need to check the existence of dconf-editor's GSettings schema before using it, because the program will abort if dconf-editor is not installed on the system when it tries to access it.

Not tested, but makes sense 👍

This builds and runs fine, and it does indeed let mate-panel run without dconf-editor installed. This removes a pesky unreported dependency, at least in Debian dconf-editor is NOT listed as a dependency but the panel without this change won't run without it.

The checking code is similar to what is used to look for the GNOME schemas read by wayland compositors in mate-control-center's appearance capplet and in wayland sessions load them if and only if present.

Anyone else want to review this before merging? This is a bugfix and in my opinion is another one worth cherrypicking to 1.28 and thankfully, this time around the issue this fixes didn't get introduced until 1.27 and never made it into 1.26

lukefromdc · 2024-07-16T02:22:55Z

Any updates on this? This is something we really need to get done, as we have in 1.28 as it stands a new and unreported dependency on dconf-editor that could hand a lot of users an ugly surprise. Most won't know the reason their panel just keeps crashing is that they don't have dconf-editor installed.

It seems ready to go though we haven't gotten any reviews. Should I go ahead and merge this or not?

Looks good to me. I was just about to fix this in my own PR when I saw this.

Sorry, I've been away for months due to terrible illness.

lukefromdc · 2024-10-15T18:35:31Z

No problem, thanks for reviewing and merging when you could.

lukefromdc · 2024-10-15T18:42:08Z

We have this Travis error that will probably block a new release of 1.28 carrying this fix from deploying. I do NOT know how to fix these Travis problems or know Ruby at all:

$ if [[ "$TRAVIS_SECURE_ENV_VARS" == "true" && "$TRAVIS_PULL_REQUEST" != "false" && ${DISTRO} =~ ^fedora.*$ ]]; then REPO_SLUG_ARRAY=(${TRAVIS_REPO_SLUG//// }); REPO_NAME=${REPO_SLUG_ARRAY[1]}; URL="https://${REPO_NAME}.mate-desktop.dev"; COMMENT="Code analysis completed"; curl -H "Authorization: token $GITHUB_TOKEN" -X POST -d "{"state": "success", "description": "$COMMENT", "context":"scan-build", "target_url": "$URL"}" https://api.github.com/repos/${TRAVIS_REPO_SLUG}/statuses/${TRAVIS_PULL_REQUEST_SHA}; fi

Cherrypicked to 1.28

lukefromdc · 2024-10-15T19:26:42Z

We need someone to fix the Travis issue blocking deployments or show me how to do it so I or someone else can release 1.28.3 so distros can pick this up. Until then, I would advise distrops to apply this patch especially if they don't want to ship dconf-editor or want to use an older version of it that uses the original interface

Had no effect on this particular Travis problem, it had fixed a problem in another repo but didn't work here. The Debian build finishes fine, we deploy from Fedora which errored out on the part of the deployment which runs before determining whether to push a tarball to the releases page with this error again:
