Bug ID: 1137054 Summary: Python Appindicator segfaults on Tumbleweed - fine on Leap Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE Workspace (Plasma) Assignee: opensuse-kde-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: richard.eigenmann@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: ---

Have been experimenting with system tray icons and came across a very simple Python example how to use them. It worked fine on my openSUSE Leap desktop and segfaults on my Tumbleweed laptop. Both fully updated as of today (1 June 2019).

Here is the Python code that puts an avatar in the system tray with a menu item to open up a zenity info dialog with your user name or shut down the script:

#!/usr/bin/python3

# Inspiration: https://fosspost.org/tutorials/custom-system-tray-icon-indicator-linux # Install: sudo zypper in typelib-1_0-AppIndicator3-0_1 # Install: sudo zypper in zenity

import os import gi gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0') gi.require_version('AppIndicator3', '0.1') from gi.repository import Gtk as gtk, AppIndicator3 as appindicator

def main(): indicator = appindicator.Indicator.new("systrayExperiment", "avatar-default-symbolic", appindicator.IndicatorCategory.APPLICATION_STATUS) indicator.set_status(appindicator.IndicatorStatus.ACTIVE) indicator.set_menu(menu()) indicator.set_title("Cute Systray Experiment") gtk.main()

def menu(): menu = gtk.Menu()

command_hello = gtk.MenuItem('Say Hello') command_hello.connect('activate', hello) menu.append(command_hello)

exittray = gtk.MenuItem('Exit Tray') exittray.connect('activate', quit) menu.append(exittray)

menu.show_all() return menu

def hello(_): os.system("/usr/bin/zenity --info --text "Hello, $(whoami)!"")

def quit(_): gtk.main_quit()

if __name__ == "__main__": main()

Output from Tumbleweed:
