Crash on startup. No logs #576

Hello,

I have gone through several hours of compiling and dependency goose chases to get desura/desurium running on Fedora 18 and 19. My first battle was with the desura client wanting very old versions of libsll.so and libcrypto.so (0.9.8)

I decided to compile desurium. The build went ok despite CEF not wanting to compile. I downgraded NSS 3.14 and after an hour (several hours total) I had desurium built.

I launched it, saw the login screen, got excited, and logged in. As soon as the client opens the home page, the app crashes. No console output, no warning, no logs. Nothing in my .config or .cache files. Nada.

Here is the only thing I am seeing. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME not set, falling back to $HOME/.config.$XDG_CACHE_HOME not set, falling back to $HOME/.cache

Perhaps there is a hidden log file somewhere but I'm just not seeing anything. For the purposes of OSS, I will try anything to get this going. Hopefully I have just had extremely bad luck with desura because this was an entire evening adventure :)

first look into dmesg. If there is a SIGILL, do you have a non SSE2 cpu? We have an issue for that: #507

You could also try to use precompiled binaries: https://github.com/desura/Desurium/wiki/Where-to-get-desurium
