Description Alexandre Leduc 2021-11-26 14:11:20 UTC 
Update button on installed global theme makes Application Setting crash

I don't have the technical chops to compile libraries with debug symbols on Manjaro, sorry.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In Appearance -> Global Theme, click the Get New Global Themes... button
2. Change the filter from Everything to Show Only Updeatable Entries
3. Click the Update button on any previously downloaded themes that have an update

The whole System Settings app crashed and the theme doesn't seem to get updated because if I repeat the above steps, the theme is still in the Show Only Updeatable Entries list.


It doesn't crash and updates the theme.

I just tried installing a new global theme and it crashed again. Normally it would ask for my SUDO password so I suspect it's having trouble triggering the dialog that asks for the password.

Can you at least attach an unsymbolicated backtrace, then? At least with that, there is a chance we can figure out what went wrong and fix it. Without it, there is no chance.

I just tried it again on 5.24.2 and it now works perfectly, so you can close the bug. Thanks.
