What does a "/home/clem/sandbox" error mean?

[DougB]

I get this error message when running a gramps program on an up to date LMDE2; gramps crashes on changing one view to another:
................................................................

What does this "/home/clem/sandbox" error mean? where does it come from?

python3-icu is a recommended dependency of Gramps (4.1.1~dfsg-3). I suggest you open a terminal and install this package:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install python3-icu

What does this "/home/clem/sandbox" error mean? where does it come from?

Sorry, I have no idea! Hopefully, this error will disappear when python3-icu has been installed.

recommended but not essential - I think the pyicu is a bit of a red herring.
However, I installed py-icu - thanks for the link! - and on re-running some warnings are now eliminated.

It still leaves /clem/Sandbox, though - what on earth is that doing? and where does it come from?

DougB: I guess this is your post... "gramps 4.2.3 crashes in Place Tree view".

If so, I can only advise that gramps 4.2.3 is not in any Debian repos as far as I can tell as Jessie has 4.1.1~dfsg-3, Stretch has 4.2.1~dfsg-2 and Sid has 4.2.2~dfsg-1.

Accordingly, I would think your "non-standard" version of gramps (4.2.3-ee00bc8) may well be incompatible with LMDE as this is based on Debian Jessie.

Regrettably, without the correct version of gramps being installed (4.1.1~dfsg-3), I doubt if I can help any further with this one.

Most probably this is coming from Clem, the founder of Linux Mint.
He has been informed yesterday.

Zill,
Thanks very much for your post.
I actually first had this bug with gramps 4.2.1 - upgrading to 4.2.3 was my unsuccessful attempt to overcome it by upgrading.

Many thanks - I look forward to enlightenment

Gramps 4.1.1~dfsg-3 runs fine for me on Jessie.

Trying to install packages intended for different releases is bound to cause problems.

That wasn't the problem as it turns out, but my having somewhat screwed up part of the database by sloppy editing.
After I went back a few steps to a backup and proceeded more carefully 4.2.3 works fine.

I'm still curious about /clem/sandbox however
