My thoughts yesterday was: Could it be, that you update Manjaro und startet successfully darktable the last time without a reboot? And than, after the reboot a few days later you get the error? Nevertheless, i looked in my fontconfig, but i saw nothing interesting in line 29. The fontconfig is not so long, so perhaps you can post it here. Googling the libportmidi.so.2 error, which could be the root cause gives a hint, that dt crashed, when someone connected his Oly EM5 to the system with "mount camera". So, perhaps, is anything mounted (or plugged in) when you start dt? One guy ask him, to start dt with: darktable -d camctl that should not be the solution, but perhaps a hint to stdout in the console. On my system, there is also no libportmidi installed and i am wondering, why it is needed. what gives: ldd /usr/bin/darktable | grep midi where /usr/bin/darktable is the path to dt, which you can get with which darktable? greetings from germany, ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
