Arch Linux User Repository

for the record: tydynrain was able to resolve the compilation issue by temporarily switching to default Gnome theme

That is very curious indeed. I have diodon installed on three separate Arch installs, and it is failing with the same error message in each one. I can't upgrade until I can figure out what the missing dependency is.

hmm.. output on my system looks pretty much the same but it does not terminate with an error.

@jose1711 Sadly it does not, as that package is already installed.

@tydynrain does installing libappindicator-gtk3 sort out the issue?

diodon installed and running, but does not show anywhere, and does not log anything. Is it compatible with gnome-shell? How is it supposed to work?

Thanks
