Description Lilith 2023-12-19 15:29:37 UTC

Launching icecat gives this error

```bash
x@x0:~$ icecat
restorecon: SELinux: Could not get canonical path for /home/x/.mozilla/icecat/* restorecon: No such file or directory.
XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/lib64/icecat/libxul.so:
libdbus-glib-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Couldn't load XPCOM.
```

I was using fedora with KDE-plasma on Asahi. I installed IceCat from the GUI application “Discover” and when I try to launch it via GUI I get a bouncing icon and then nothing. When I launch it via Konsole I get the preceding error message.

From https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/gnu-icecat-wont-start/99624/2

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install "Fedora Asahi Remix 39 with KDE Plasma" on an M2 mac with `curl https://alx.sh | sh`
2. Install "GNU IceCat" from "Discover" vis the GUI
3. Run `icecat` from Konsole

(I expect this issue will be reproducible any time dbus-glib is missing, but those are the exact steps I took)
Actual Results:  
Does not start

Expected Results:  
Automatically installs dependancies when installing the software

Comment 1 Lilith 2023-12-19 16:10:29 UTC

I have reproduced this on a fresh install with GNOME. Running `sudo yum install dbus-glib` is a functional workaround.

Comment 2 Antonio T. sagitter 2023-12-19 20:13:59 UTC

It's a filtering issue probably.
Thank you for this feedback.
