KeyError: 'DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS'

Running protonvpn-cli 3.13.0-1 untill 3.11.0-7 from Debian 11 i get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/secretstorage/init.py", line 72, in dbus_init connection = open_dbus_connection() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/jeepney/io/blocking.py", line 243, in open_dbus_connection bus_addr = get_bus(bus) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/jeepney/bus.py", line 53, in get_bus return find_session_bus() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/jeepney/bus.py", line 42, in find_session_bus addr = os.environ['DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS'] File "/usr/lib/python3.9/os.py", line 679, in getitem raise KeyError(key) from None KeyError: 'DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS'

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

any idea ?

@bozoi3 getting the exact same error, did you find a fix?

[Shifta-Robel]

It's saying that the DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS variable is unset. Try setting it with export $(dbus-launch)

do

eval `dbus-launch --auto-syntax`
