Description of problem: rmlint needs GtkSourceView 3 to show the GUI, but it is not marked as a dependency. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rmlint-2.10.1-11.fc37.x86_64 How reproducible: always (packaging issue) Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have rmlint installed, but without having gtksourceview3 installed 2. Start `rmlint --gui` Actual results: rmlint aborts with an error: $ rmlint --gui Traceback (most recent call last): File "/tmp/.shredder-bootstrap.py.RY5Z01", line 18, in <module> File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/shredder/__init__.py", line 11, in <module> gi.require_version('GtkSource', '3.0') File "/usr/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 129, in require_version raise ValueError('Namespace %s not available for version %s' % ValueError: Namespace GtkSource not available for version 3.0 Expected results: Start just fine or hint to install gtksourceview3. Additional info: I recommend to add `Recommends: gtksourceview3` to the spec file. You could also make it "Requires", but that would pull in a GUI dependency on a non-GUI application which I would not like if I'd be using a headless system.
I stumbled across this bug when I noticed a "Shredder Duplicate Finder" application icon in Gnome which seems to do nothing. Steps to reproduce: 1. Have rmlint installed, but without having gtksourceview3 installed 2. Launch "Shredder Duplicate Finder" using Gnome shell Actual results: Nothing happens, no error messafge Expected result: An error message, or rmlint GUI appears. It's specified in /usr/share/applications/shredder.desktop , part of rmlint package
This package has changed maintainer in Fedora. Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle. Changing version to 39.
I confirm this bug on Fedora 40 - it seems the package is abandoned.
The package currently has "Recommends: gtksourceview3", which means the dep will get pulled unless the user has disabled weak dependencies. I'm thinking about moving the GUI to a separate sub-package; it could then have a hard Requires on GtkSourceView3. This should make the GUI work reliably, while also allowing users not interested in the GUI to avoid pulling unnecessary deps.
