Error running Brave on KDE Plasma (Artix)
Hi, everyone :-)
I would like to ask how I can get Brave to run on my KDE Plasma desktop on Artix?
It seems to run fine on GNOME but under KDE It results in the following errors:
Code:
[32638:32638:0917/124329.913781:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(275)] GLib-GObject: cannot register existing type 'GtkWidget'
[32638:32638:0917/124329.913812:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(275)] GLib-GObject: g_type_add_interface_static: assertion 'G_TYPE_IS_INSTANTIATABLE (instance_type)' failed

It's an AUR package from Archlinux. All brave packages give the same error. Can I get Brave to run on KDE Plasma somehow?
Thanks for reading and looking forward to your reply!

I think that you need to install the Gtk toolkit. I run KDE on Debian. I also have the Gtk toolkit installed by the Debian installer for use by Gnome based software and there does not seem to be any conflict between KDE and the Gtk toolkit.
I don't know how you install packages in Atix but you could give it a try.
If you can't get Brave to run on Atix KDE I suggest that you give Vivaldi web browser a try.

I am running brave 1.58.127 direct from the Manjaro Extra (not AUR) repos.
on Manjaro Plasma over Wayland with XWayland installed for whatever needs it. No problems whatever.
