  • After updating Gnome to 44 stopped working qBittorrent

qBittorrent (4.5.4) starts, but the main window is not displayed (session of the Gnome x11 and wayland, the problem is in both). There is no problem in the wayland session if you execute:
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland qbittorrent
The compiled git version of qBittorrent (4.6.0rc1) works fine.

    fogary A few devs have tried to reproduce this and none of us have been able to. It works in x11 session and Wayland session for all of us. Could you give us a few more details about your system? The output from starting it from the command line without the QT_QPA_PLATFORM variable?

    fogary The compiled git version of qBittorrent (4.6.0rc1) works fine.

    Are you building this using solbuild or directly from a checked out git source? If the latter you'll probably want to make sure you're using qt5 to build instead of qt6 as the Solus package still uses qt5 (we're holding most qt apps that support both back at qt5 until Plasma itself moves to qt6 for theming reasons).

    If you're building using a modified version of our package.yml you could try bisecting between qbittorrent 4.5.4 and 4.6.0rc1 to see which commit "fixes" it. I can probably backport that commit to our package so this gets fixed for other users as well.

          ReillyBrogan My system:
          OS: Solus 4.4 Harmony
          Kernel: 6.3.12-244.current
          DE: GNOME 44.3
          CPU: 12th Gen Intel i5-12400F (12) @ 5.600GHz
          GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Rev. A
          Memory: 15834MiB
          NVIDIA Driver Version: 535.54.03

          The output from starting it from the command line without the QT_QPA_PLATFORM variable?

          In x11 session - no errors.

          In Wayland session - warning:
          Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

          Are you building this using solbuild or directly from a checked out git source?

          Build directly from git source. Using qt6 - unfortunately.

          It looks like the problem is only on my system.

            a month later

            Update.
            Build qbittorrent-4.6.0rc2 uses qt5, the result is the same - the main window does not open, only the tray icon.
