@gamezelda thanks for the prompt - it seems to work but again I'm limited to testing on wayland. I've kept the GDK_BACKEND wrapper and removed the custom wxwidgets. It also no longer tries to pull in sfml2

The TEXTUREX crash should now be resolved with #1863 which is released in 3.2.8, so hopefully the custom wxWidgets can be removed at last.

GDK_BACKEND=x11 may still be desirable due to #1595.

Thanks for looking into this - I can confirm that without the custom wxWidgets build, SLADE crashes on the TEXTUREX editor on X11 (tested i3, or Sway with GDK_BACKEND=x11), while it works on Wayland (Sway).

I think it's the same issue referred to in this comment.

So scrap my previous message - it looks like the custom wxWidgets without EGL is still needed to avoid that crash on X11.

@gamezelda I've done a quick test and found texturex issues - here's a version using current commits and without including the custom wxwidgets: https://gist.github.com/envolution/d1da70fbeca0307f5284857ca82a0644

It seems to crash when loading texturex images with GDK_BACKEND=x11 on wayland - this is not an issue with plain wayland ( $ slade3.bin )

So I'd need some feedback from some users if that modified PKGBUILD (gist) works on X11 and wayland when using slade3.bin allowing us to ditch the wrapper

Heads up, a MR for gtk3 that should fix the issue with Wayland+EGL (issue #1351, same as the TEXTUREx issue?) has been released in gtk 3.24.51, which is already in Arch non-testing repos.

This means that hopefully we can avoid building a custom wxWidgets (I tested it and it works for me).

@DeadRuins - I've tried for some time to replicate the issue you've identified - I did get some sporadic core dumps while opening hexen assets but they weren't regular enough for me to be sure it was caused by the Noto CJK JP fonts. Since you've mentioned it is not an issue in current -git, I've moved this repo to pull from today's upstream repo commits. For what it's worth, in 'Preferences' -> 'Advanced' - there is a Font setting in which you can specify your preferred monospace font - This is what I was using to try replicate, but it may also allow you to force your preferred font.

@gamezelda Thanks for your report, I've dropped aur/freeimage, bumped wxwidgets to 3.2.8.1, and included all current commits as of today in hopes of addressing other reported problems

DeadRuins commented on 2025-08-18 10:51 (UTC)

@envolution Yeah, I tried a slade-git, and it works without the issue.

envolution commented on 2025-08-17 16:12 (UTC)

@DeadRuins does the same problem happen with aur/slade-git ? If so, I would suggest filing a bug report at https://github.com/sirjuddington/SLADE/issues

If aur/slade-git works, please let me know as it's something I may be able to fix

DeadRuins commented on 2025-08-17 09:18 (UTC)

Sorry for being a poorly written comment; this is my first time commenting in an AUR package. So apologize for being poorly written and lack of information.

A few days ago, I made a change at fontconfig to use "Noto Sans Mono CJK JP" for Monospace when there's no Japanese font (which Slade ended up using for some reason), and since then, Slade seems to be crashing with puking "Segmentation fault (Core Dump)" error. I did ran a "sudo pacman -Syu && yay -Syu" to make sure my setup is up-to-date, but that didn't help.

Looks like Arch dropped freeimage due to security concerns, luckily upstream has already removed that dependency in this commit: Replace FreeImage with wxWidgets for handling general image formats (#1805), which can be cherry-picked into 3.2.7 without too much trouble.
