Hi folks,
Just recently started complaining in vim about not finding %!command
output file /tmp/XXXXXXXX/# and now can not launch clients from XDG
menu, even after reverting coreutils, and restarting the system: last
updated and previous reboot 2024-11-11, just before last Patch Tuesday!
Running coreutils tests, it seemed to be recursively trying to run
chgrp/mod/own from root down, so permissions *somewhere* is likely the
issue?
I don't know about this...
I notice gam_server does not seem to be running as usual, so may be a
symptom, but not a lot of info about gamin.
Checked related perms and all look okay and usual X files and
directories appear to be there except as below /tmp/fam-XXX/fam-...
All hints and suggestions welcome!

xwin-xdg-menu is the traymenu X application launcher, not the X server
itself.

Unfortunately, this backtrace doesn't contain much useful information.
It might be easier to debug this by:
XWin -multiwindow
export DISPLAY=:0
gdb xwin-xdg-menu
