SchildiChat crash with core dump under hyprland on wayland

[thelmuxkriovar]

Environment:

• Distro: NixOS
• Display Server: Hyprland (Wayland)
• XDG Portal: GTK

Description:

When attempting to launch the SchildiChat desktop application on a system using Hyprland (a Wayland compositor), the application crashes, resulting in a segmentation fault and a core dump. This issue occurs immediately upon starting the application and prevents any further interaction or use of the software.

The application successfully launched on the first attempt, before configuring user account, but subsequently crashes on subsequent attempts, resulting in a segmentation fault and a core dump.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Launch SchildiChat-Desktop
2. See crash
3. Cry

Expected Behavior:

SchildiChat should launch successfully without crashing, allowing for normal usage.

Actual Behavior:

The application crashes immediately upon launch. Launching it from the terminal reveals a segmentation fault:

$ schildichat-desktop
No update_base_url is defined: auto update is disabled
Fetching translation json for locale: en_EN
Changing application language to en-us
