It's not only arch issue or even only wayland issue, but seems like all distros could be affected: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-71746/As-of-yesterday-Pycharm-and-IntelliJ-crashes-and-kills-my-Ubuntu-22.04-session
There's a workaround to remove a config.
mv $HOME/.config/JetBrains/PyCharm2024.1/options/other.xml $HOME/.config/JetBrains/PyCharm2024.1/options/other.xml.bak
@lybin pycharm also doesn't start. I can report to sway but it's pycharm that is not working and not sway.
Congrats, report to sway, not here :)
The latest version crashes sway:
segfault at 40 ip 000077a6af765c38 sp 00007ffc4d64bd08 error 6 in libwayland-server.so.0.22.0[77a6af763000+8000] likely on CPU 1 (core 0, socket 0)
Hi @GodofTheFallen, these types of issues should be reported to the Jetbrains bug tracker, unless you believe it is a packaging issue.
There is an issue where the JetBrains window will steal the focus, and other windows above the JetBrains window will be passed through by the mouse. Pycharm's own dropdown bars and pop-up menus will also be passed through and cannot be clicked.
@Xavier Finally! Thanks!
@freso, that wrong path is dynamic, it depends on where you are building the package, so it is more complicated to just do a sed besides in future updates there could be more files (or not, we don´t know). Of course I prefer not to manipulate the file system outside the package manager, but we don't know the consequences of having wrong paths in the speed-up debugging.
With 4479465010ef2f6a58bc764b613e929daef79a6e (pkgrel=5) I get a hit on /usr/src/debug/pycharm-professional/pycharm-2023.3.3/plugins/python/helpers/pydev which doesn’t exist anywhere on my system.
This feels very similar to “WARNING: Package contains reference to $srcdir” (which I thought was what this was about at first, hence my grep’ing) and while I get that it may not be the neatest to have a "wrong" path in there, I’d argue that it’s way less neat to manipulate the file system outside of the package manager, especially if there is no confirmed issues arising from not doing so. If it turns out there is an issue, it should probably be filed as a bug with upstream. (I guess there’s always the option of sed -i 's|/usr/src/debug/pycharm-professional/pycharm-[0-9.]\+/|/opt/pycharm-professional/| or similar too…)
I’ll try and look into if there’s something that can be passed to build_ext to make it not include these paths, but even if not, I have a working PKGBUILD that doesn’t offend my sensibilities, so whether you choose to adopt any of my changes for that or not, it’ll only be a slight minor annoyance for me come update time if you don’t. :)

This comment from @AvacadoCookie should be pinned, IMO.
If anyone is getting errors about

For all users with
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Cython'or'setuptools'reported, please try the following methods to address the problem:condaenvironment. Now afterwhich pythontyped in console, the output should be/usr/bin/python.pacman -S cython python-setuptools.
