[Networkmanager] nm-applet fails to start

[Robin Becker]

I am using nm-applet with openbox running on a rpi4 using the armtix port of artix (https://artixlinux.org/).

Linux pikat 5.15.79-2-rpi-ARTIX-RPI4 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Nov 20 09:43:06 MSK 2022 aarch64 GNU/Linux

I found that nm-applet started to fail after a recent package update; when started in a terminal I see this message

nm-applet:2224): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 12:58:52.840: Settings schema 'org.gnome.nm-applet' is not installed
Trace/breakpoint trap


I checked that we do indeed have a schema in /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.nm-applet.gschema.xml and the 
compilation started by the install. appears to have worked


working packages

local/libnm 1.40.4-1.1 NetworkManager client library
local/libnma 1.10.2-2 NetworkManager GUI client library (GTK3)
local/libnma-common 1.10.2-2 NetworkManager GUI client library (common files)
local/networkmanager 1.40.4-1.1 Network connection manager and user applications
local/networkmanager-runit 20180226-3 (runit-world) runit service scripts for networkmanager
local/nm-connection-editor 1.28.0-1 NetworkManager GUI connection editor and widgets
local/network-manager-applet 1.30.0-1 Applet for managing network connections


the failure occurs when I updated 2 of these to

libnma-common-1.10.4-3-aarch64.pkg.tar.xz
libnma-1.10.4-3-aarch64.pkg.tar.xz

I looked at the strace output and see this at the end

I run a similar artix x86_64 system (again with runit) and there I have these packages

local/libnm 1.40.4-1.1 NetworkManager client library
local/libnma 1.10.4-3 NetworkManager GUI client library (GTK3)
local/libnma-common 1.10.4-3 NetworkManager GUI client library (common files)
local/networkmanager 1.40.4-1.1 Network connection manager and user applications
local/networkmanager-runit 20180226-3 (runit-world) runit service scripts for networkmanager
local/nm-connection-editor 1.30.0-1 NetworkManager GUI connection editor and widgets
local/network-manager-applet 1.30.0-1 Applet for managing network connections

these packages seem to work fine on this OS/arch.

Is there some way I can debug this issue?
