megasync crashes when trying to select local folder for sync #11

Closed CapSel closed 6 years ago

CapSel commented 6 years ago

some time ago I encountered this problem in ArchLinux and "they" helped me solve:

We have seen some bug related with QT 5.10, that could be the cause of that. 
Please, either use the official package from https://mega.nz/sync

or try to recompile removing this line of code in src/MEGASync/MegaApplication.cpp:

   QApplication::setDesktopSettingsAware(false);
If that does not solve it, please, contact us again

My QT version is 5.9.6 but symptoms are same. Could you add this "patch" to repo?

After opening Settings:

usually at this point megasync crashes for me.

I've recently reinstalled system and my home directory was clean. Recompilation with patch that I made base on email from Mega eliminates the crash.

I'm using gnome without systemd - dantrell profile for gnome 3.28 but I had the same crash on ArchLinux (yes - archlinux failed me for the last time ;)

I did the steps you mentioned and I couldn't reproduce that issue. I'm using kde with systemd, but the init systems shouldn't be the source of the problem. Maybe the problem is with gnome desktop integration. So I propose the following:

Thanks for your feedback.

Sounds good. Thank you.
