Description RaketenAdmin 2022-10-19 09:35:36 UTC
Description of problem:
mozo does not start on EL8 (Rocky Linux 8.6) system.

When trying to start it from the commandline it prompts the following:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/mozo", line 37, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/mozo", line 33, in main
    app = MainWindow(datadir, version, sys.argv)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/Mozo/MainWindow.py", line 60, in __init__
    self.tree.add_from_file(os.path.join(self.file_path, 'mozo.ui'))
GLib.Error: gtk-builder-error-quark: /usr/share/mozo/mozo.ui:5:1 Required gtk+ version 3.24, current version is 3.22 (7)

To my knowledge at this time only gtk+ 3.22 is available on EL8, version 3.24 is available on EL9. 

When editing the requirement in the mozo.ui to 3.22 it starts fine, although I haven't checked all of its functionalities.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mozo-1.26.1-2.el8.noarch

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try "Edit Menus" or try to start mozo via command line on EL8 system.

Confirmed.

Comment 2 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2022-10-26 20:47:55 UTC
I asked upstream about to lower gtk3 version in mozo.ui
https://github.com/mate-desktop/mozo/pull/78#issuecomment-1288181499
For the moment you can try out this scratch build with lower gtk3 version.

Comment 3 RaketenAdmin 2022-10-28 15:56:10 UTC
Thanks a lot. And I will try the scratch build.
Just out of curiosity, did you change anything else apart from the gtk+ requirement in the mozo.ui in that build?

Comment 4 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2022-10-28 18:12:44 UTC
No, i changed only version in ui file an test it for myself.
For the moment i didn't notice any failures.
I tested it also with glade and it seems ok.
