Description Hamid Elaosta 2015-09-29 20:40:54 UTC

Description of problem:

Application won't launch due to missing schema setup on Linux Mint/Ubuntu


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Git master, revision b45a0ce2867f2ae4fb28c27c31c49dc30175db7b


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Git clone Virt-Manager
2. Install depencies
3. python setup.py install virt-manager
4. execute "virt-manager"

Actual results:

Debug log shows that start failed due to missing gschema xml

(virt-manager:11567): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema 'org.virt-manager.virt-manager' is not installed



Expected results:

virt-manager should launch without error


Additional info:


A previous commit log shows that the install path was recently changed on Ubuntu from /usr/local/share to /usr/share, I don't know whether the schema setup is attempted but fails due to the path change but, the prob can be resolved manually as follows;

WORKAROUND

$ glib-compile-schemas --strict /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
