readPIDFromPeer: Unexpected short read from PID socket.

[Andresito-oficial]

After update to version 1.0.0, Nyarch Asssitant crashes a few seconds after opening due to a fatal error produced when installing the python build dependencies of the app.

This is the system I use attached as hyfetch picture:

Output generated when trying to execute the app from terminal:

Try removing pip path

~/.var/app/moe.nyarchlinux.assistant/config/pip

It looks like the issue is not mojimoji though.

this happens when removing the pip path

Hm you have kokoro as TTS, I guess it's better if you delete the whole settings entirely. I will check issues with kokoro for 1.2.1

andres@fraxinus:~$

i've deleted the whole settings folder and the problem persists

[FrancescoCaracciolo]

Do previous versions work?

[Andresito-oficial]

yep, not optimally but they work
on the previous versions the app only worked when launched from terminal

[FrancescoCaracciolo]

The relevant part of the error is

** (nyarchassistant:2): ERROR **: 20:11:44.387: readPIDFromPeer: Unexpected short read from PID socket. (This usually means the auxiliary process crashed immediately. Investigate that instead!)

Looking online looks like the reason is more flatpak rather than the application itself.
Maybe the application now does some flatpak-spawn that your particular environment does not like or has some other problematic subprocess.
Do you know if 1.1.0 works correctly?

[andrew-hacker06]

version 1.1.0 was the first one that didn't started up at all

[FrancescoCaracciolo]

1.0.1 works?

[andrew-hacker06]

yeah, it works

[FrancescoCaracciolo]

I will try to figure out the issue
