This is a vanilla Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, based on Xubuntu core to be exactly. So I need to install packages myself. All went well except meld
, on starting which, I'll get:
(meld:4188): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system
[2]+ Trace/breakpoint trap
I've found three existing answers, none of them is working for my case.
Following the suggestions, I've done reinstalling gsettings-desktop-schemas
:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall gsettings-desktop-schemas
- GLib-GIO-ERROR**: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system
Following the suggestions,- I've done
glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
and - I've made sure the correct gschema.xml is there
- and I've also tried to sets up the
$XDG_DATA_DIR
environment for meld.
- I've done
However, none of them is working.
$ ls -l /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5354 2016-03-24 16:46 /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml
$ XDG_DATA_DIR=/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ meld ...
(meld:4326): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system
[2]+ Trace/breakpoint trap
I've consult this one as well, however, that's Redhat 6.3 server environment, and the OP was installing each component to its own prefix; thus he ran into errors like this. In other words, his case doesn't apply to my vanilla Ubuntu.
I've run out of options. Please help.
Thanks
