bug#57417: Emacs crashes due to symbol lookup error to rsvg_handle_set_stylesheet
Hey fellow Guix users, I’m trying to use Emacs on my system but it tends to crash unexpectedly. When launching it from a terminal, I get: > grokkingstuff@grokkingNoether ~$ emacs > (process:32402): Gtk-WARNING **: 22:59:14.455: Locale not supported by C > library. > Using the fallback 'C' locale. > /home/grokkingstuff/.guix-profile/bin/emacs: symbol lookup error: > /home/grokkingstuff/.guix-profile/bin/emacs: undefined symbol: > rsvg_handle_set_stylesheet Trying to use emacs -q, I get a similar message, but it just crashes quickly. > ^Cgrokkingstuff@grokkingNoether ~$ emacs-29.0.50 -q > (process:4018): Gtk-WARNING **: 23:08:35.207: Locale not supported by C > library. > Using the fallback 'C' locale. > /home/grokkingstuff/.guix-profile/bin/emacs-29.0.50: symbol lookup error: > /home/grokkingstuff/.guix-profile/bin/emacs-29.0.50: undefined symbol: > rsvg_handle_set_stylesheet I have librsvg installed, and a few Google searches seem to indicate that this is the issue. I’ve tried building from source using "guix install -S” but I don’t see any difference. If there’s anything I could do to assist with this bug report, please let me know. Thank you so much for your time and effort. Sincerely, Vishakh Kumar (grokkingstuff)

Two issues spring to mind: First, this kind of linkage is not that well supported by Guix, so we tend to substitute* the full path. Is this done for librsvg? Second, there might be a (version) mismatch between the librsvg Emacs expects and the one it gets. Does rsvg_handle_set_stylesheet actually exist as a symbol in your librsvg? Cheers

Hi there, I'm facing the same issue from a fresh 1.3 installation I did on a VM. Emacs28.2 is linked against librsvg-2.40.21 which do not provide rsvg_handle_set_stylesheet function. altomcat@guix ~/.config$ libtree /gnu/store/jpi4h6afvkifypxjxdpgrdm4shnmavwf-emacs-28.2/bin/.emacs-28.2-real | grep rsvg │ │ │ ┊ /gnu/store/3r3sxc1ywqs93rzj4z46p0cbdy1y1x7m-librsvg-2.40.21/lib ├── librsvg-2.so.2 [LD_LIBRARY_PATH] │ ┊/gnu/store/3r3sxc1ywqs93rzj4z46p0cbdy1y1x7m-librsvg-2.40.21/lib │ ┊/gnu/store/3r3sxc1ywqs93rzj4z46p0cbdy1y1x7m-librsvg-2.40.21/lib Error [/gnu/store/jpi4h6afvkifypxjxdpgrdm4shnmavwf-emacs-28.2/bin/.emacs-28.2-real]: Not all dependencies were found altomcat@guix ~/.config$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH /gnu/store/piln05qmyhyiqb3ggn2hvz1wagzvd8mc-gdk-pixbuf+svg-2.40.0/lib:/gnu/store/cydnixdcrvlizpcz3jkas5vpgd2dmd5z-gnome-bluetooth-3.34.2/lib:/gnu/store/3r3sxc1ywqs93rzj4z46p0cbdy1y1x7m-librsvg-2.40.21/lib:/gnu/store/8902rzyhkzs30c8z9xjkmmdrh2dq1ha7-libgweather-3.34.0/lib Emacs runs well if I insert the path of librsvg-2.50.7 to LD_LIBRARY_PATH as follow export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/gnu/store/34yxh2p22yaiisb1ayp43ig06hdlj0wg-librsvg-2.50.7/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH I checked the package definition with `guix edit emacs` ... ;; When looking for libpng `configure' links with `-lpng -lz', so we ;; must also provide zlib as an input. libpng zlib (if (target-x86-64?) librsvg-bootstrap librsvg-2.40) => need to be change ? libxpm libxml2 ...

Hi Maxime, > Which architecture are you on?

You can find out with $ echo '(use-modules (guix utils)) (%current-system)' | guix repl $1 = "x86_64-linux" Then unless 'grokking Stuff' has a different system, I am not following their proposal, because because on x86-64 ... (if (target-x86-64?) librsvg-bootstrap librsvg-2.40) => need to be change ? ... the first branch would be taken, so changing the second branch would have no effect. However, perhaps the rsvg_handle_set_stylesheet is only present in the 'librsvg', and not in 'librsvg-bootstrap' (I wouldn't expect that as they are the same version, but it could be tested). If so, librsvg-for-system could be used instead, at cost of some rebuilds.
