SUMMARY

All of the scripts I've assigned to shortcuts through the 'Ten scripts' interface have abruptly stopped working. Trying to use any of them results in the same error tooltip: "[Errno 1] Operation not permitted:", followed by the path to the script file.

The file paths are correct; restarting Krita or rebooting the computer do nothing to solve the issue. I also tried reinstalling both Krita and Python through Pamac.

Having tried AppImages of version 5.2 and the latest nightly, the error persists across all versions.

Note: I also noticed that trying to load a Python script file from the scripter gets me an "Invalid File -- Krita" error dialog, with the message: "Open files with .py extension". All my script files have a .py extension.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Tools > Scripts > Ten Scripts
2. Set a script file (even an empty one) to one of the shortcuts.
3. Confirm to close the dialog and try using the assigned shortcut.

OBSERVED RESULT

An error tooltip is displayed: "[Errno 1] Operation not permitted:", followed by the path to the script file.

EXPECTED RESULT

The script is usually executed without any problems.

It seems the problem came from a diacritic in the file path. I removed an accented character from one folder name, and updated the path in Krita, and the script shortcuts are now functional again.

There was no issue until a short time ago, so I imagine the problem was introduced by a recent update to either the OS, Python or Krita.

Krita does say when a script file can't be found. If it considers a file path to be invalid, I'd strongly recommend specifying this in similar fashion; "Operation not permitted" is a very vague and misleading error message, suggesting that file permissions or interfering software may be at fault.

Thank you.
