Don't try to install libxapp-gtk3-module. It's a Debian package, that module is already installed on your system (or should be):
ls -la /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-3.0/modules/libxapp-gtk3-module.so
You can ignore the error message on flatpaks. Flatpaks don't have access to the host root, but they're picking up the GTK3_MODULES environment variable when they get launched.
This is harmless, the module is not required. Make sure you end up with xapp 2.6.1+faye packages after your messing around or you may have further issues.
I stumbled upon this closed issue because I am getting this error when I try to run ubuntu-bug
from the console and after that, I get an error message in the console:
Gtk-Message: 19:26:37.171: Failed to load module "xapp-gtk3-module"
and an error window "The application Settings has closed unexpectedly".
I do not have /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-3.0/modules/libxapp-gtk3-module.so
on my system and I was able to install this library with sudo apt install libxapp-gtk3-module
.
try running:
unset GTK3_MODULES
then run the program.
As I mentioned above, it shouldn't crash anything, it's just a poorly-worded warning. Also, unless you're on Ubuntu, it may not run anyhow.
Thank you for your recommendation. I am on Ubuntu 24.04. After installing libxapp-gtk3-module
I was no longer getting the Gtk-Message error, even when running other applications that produced it before (one of them dconf-editor
). Unsetting GTK3_MODULES
did not make any difference after that. But when running ubuntu-bug
, I still get "The application Settings has closed unexpectedly" pop-up. I guess, it must be unrelated to xapp-gtk3-module
.

Bug description
The error is being triggered when opening flatpak applications (and maybe on normal applications as well, but I must confirm):
Steps to reproduce
Try to run a flatpak application through the terminal with the command
flatpak run <application id>
, for example, I got this error while running insomniaflatpak run rest.insomnia.Insomnia
(please remember that the app must be installed before running the command) and you will see the error in the logs.Expected behavior
The module should be loaded successfully.
Additional information
I don't know what are the consequences of this error, but I also noted that it might be related to some dependency conflict between the Mint Faye packages for the xapp lib and Debian packages for lib xapp. For example here someone suggested installing the xapp package with the command
apt install xapp
but the following is shown:Or if you try to install the package
libxapp-gtk3-module
(which seems to be the root of the problem):The package
libxapp-gtk3-module
I suspect should be installed on the system but it is not being completely installed because of a conflict with thelibxapp1:amd64 2.6.1+faye
package while trying to set/etc/X11/Xsession.d/80xapp-gtk3-module
