Package: meld
Version: 3.16.1-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Hi,
I invoked meld with two small documents.
$ meld 6100.1.chk 6100.2.chk
The result was
No protocol specified
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
No protocol specified
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
(meld:14422): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_icon_theme_get_for_screen: assertion
'GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/meld", line 260, in <module>

File "/usr/bin/meld", line 193, in setup_resources
Gtk.IconTheme.get_default().append_search_path(icon_dir)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'append_search_path'
I noticed bug 830952, so checked my GTK version; it was 3.20.6-2. Perhaps "too
new"?
When I opened meld through the menu instead, I was able to use it to view the
diff.
Let me just say that I think meld provides the most attractive diff result
display I have ever seen, it's a joy to use just because of that.
