Downgrading pango to version 1.43 is a workaround for the error with segfault at launch (I only tested it with webtorrent-desktop-bin, but I assume it is the same here). Version 1.44 ended support for bitmap fonts as part of the transition to the HarfBuzz font loader, more info here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fonts#Bitmap

I eventually uninstalled it, and installed the FlatHub version, it worked instantly. Would prefere to install this AUR package instead but for now it works great with the flatpak/FlatHub version.

flatpak install flathub io.webtorrent.WebTorrent

cheers. Hope for a fix, in the meantime, enjoy

EDIT: by the way, the "segmentation fault" issue on launch appeared on this manjaro update for me https://forum.manjaro.org/t/stable-update-2019-08-13-kernels-xfce-4-14-kde-libreoffice-6-3-discord-mesa/98600 maybe it can be helpful to troubleshoot the issue.

It doesn't work, I uninstalled it again, but it still doesn't work.

Even with root not working, nothing is open.

Same as @curiosity. If I try to run it without sudo from the console, nothing gets output to stdout.

@curiosity It works for me. Do you get an error message?

curiosity commented on 2019-06-04 14:38 (UTC)

won't run from menu, won't run from command line as user, will only run as root/sudo.
