When you update Python, you need to rebuild all python AUR packages, including Ulauncher.

See https://github.com/Ulauncher/Ulauncher/discussions/1280 for more info

@seidler2547 Fixed, thanks!

Is it possible to change the webkit2gtk dependency? webkit2gtk takes forever to compile. I don't know if webkit2gtk-4.1 would also work? Because that is available in the extra repo.

@C.Schmidpeter I also got that error, but the pinned comment shows how to fix it. I did a clean build, and that fixed it for me. My guess is your python was updated too, and ulauncher only requires a rebuild now

Starting ulauncher fails since system update (and ulauncher reinstall)

$ulauncher

@bnjbvr, @arekan127, @hex32211 @JohnPiers I think you all have been having issues with a how Arch handles Python upgrades, which is not an issue created by Ulauncher, but it's pinned here: https://github.com/Ulauncher/Ulauncher/issues/930

After a full system upgrade ulauncher fails to start with the following error: ''' Could not load image /usr/share/ulauncher/media/gear.svg. E: gdk-pixbuf-error-quark: Couldn’t recognise the image file format for file “/usr/share/ulauncher/media/gear.svg . . . File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/ulauncher/ui/windows/UlauncherWindow.py", line 393, in _render_prefs_icon surface = Gdk.cairo_surface_create_from_pixbuf(prefs_pixbuf, scale_factor, self.get_window()) '''

I've also been struggling with Ulauncher for about two weeks now. managed to get it sorted after a huge mission and then this morning there was a bump in version and it installed without any problems and Ulauncher not giving problems and working as expected.

python setup.py > python3.11 setup.py in PKGBUILD workaround works, but this is really strange why python setup.py uses lib directory of 3.10
