Hi, friends.
I am trying to launch gthumb by gthumb command, but I got this error
Code:

D.Gen|icefire|2024-03-18 22:07:48[ice@ /]gthumb

(gthumb:5043): Clutter-Gtk-ERROR **: 22:07:53.484: *** Unsupported backend.
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)



USE flag of gthumb
Code:

D.Gen|icefire|2024-03-18 22:07:53[ice@ /]equery u gthumb
[ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation]
[        : I - package is installed with flag     ]
[ Colors : set, unset                             ]
 * Found these USE flags for media-gfx/gthumb-3.12.6:
 U I

gthumb is very useful tool, but now it crashes and I have no idea on how to fix it.
Thanks for any suggesion for solving this problem.

try with export CLUTTER_BACKEND=x11 gthumb or export CLUTTER_BACKEND=wayland gthumb - depends on which you're using.

you can add it to your users home .profile file.

Thanks a lot, "CLUTTER_BACKEND=x11 " works.
By the way, old versions gthumb does not need setting this environment variable. Is
Code:
CLUTTER_BACKEND
a new environment variable introduced by gthumb or some other packages? In which version?

this has something to do with GTK in general - there are many options - look at https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/class.Settings.html#properties
