I upgraded pcmanfm and now its broken?

This is a strange one... I updated my linux distro and all the software with it and now pcmanfm (my file manager) is broken.

After 98 updates and 4 hours of compiling all the other updates work fine except for the pcmanfm one.

Running it in the terminal says this:

Code:



** (pcmanfm:28131): DEBUG: unable to load icon folder



(pcmanfm:28131): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

The program still loads but all the icons are gone and it flips out and crashes with no error message if you try to do something.

Is this a bug or something I missed?

hi

since no-one has yet to solve...maybe you could state what is your distro?

2) I assume you have compiled your dependencies without errors before attempting pcmanfm?

3) Maybe cross post to lxde forum?

I just used "emerge pcmanfm" and it took care of the dependencies and no there wasn't any errors.

When I first installed it half a year ago I had to set the "Gnome" icon set as pcmanfm icon set otherwise it would complain.

After reviewing the error a little more indepth it is complaining about missing those icons.

Sadly though, I have no idea what happened to those icons let alone how to reinstall them. :-/

I do not use gnome but maybe copy some icons and creating the pathway that is being complained about.

I am guessing its /usr/share/icons/gnome/(size)

if you know exact pathway error I can upload that folder for you and pm you a link but I need the full pathway as I don't want to tarball the lot as my host site only likes small uploads
