VSCodium segfault error

[Branislav84]

After updating to the latest version v1.82.0 VSCodium starting to create multiple segfault errors related to installed extensions.

In previous version it worked without any error.

VSCodium Snap on Kubuntu 22.04

Same happens with the flatpak package. It simply crashes on startup.

Temporary fix for flatpak users is to downgrade to the last working version (1.81.1.23222) via the update command (requires root)

sudo flatpak update --commit=20aad2933e1ae45bc1cfd8292da8e7f1f1b72e2b0070cef81fc12cfd62e07f66 com.vscodium.codium

Same problem on archlinux with a straight installation from VSCodium-linux-x64-1.82.0.23250.tar.gz.

Can't find any symbols so the stackstrace isn't of much help...

Perhaps the same problem here.

For me it seams it is wayland in later vscodium that is broken. If i force it over into xwayland it starts up normally.

electron/electron#37531

Probably the same problem happens on Flatpak on Alpine Linux with Sway (Wayland) desktop and starting with --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland – the codium process segfaults.

@daiyam, it’s still broken, I’m stuck on the old version because of this bug. Can you please fix it?

[daiyam]

Since 1.86.2, Wayland should be fine without any flags.
Have you tried to compile VSCodium on your machine?

My dev machine for VSCodium Linux is a plain Ubuntu 22.04

[jirutka]

As I said, I’m running VSCodium via Flatpak.

[daiyam]

Alpine isn't supported. But, have you tried with sudo apk add gcompat libstdc++ procps?

[jirutka]

Do you know what Flatpak is?

[daiyam]

Very very constructive... 😫

[jirutka]

If you know what Flatpak is, then you know that it runs the application in a container, so saying “Alpine isn’t supported” and suggesting to install gcompat on the host system doesn’t make sense.

[jirutka]

I updated VSCodium now and the latest version (1.87.2) from Flathub finally works! 😺

[trinitronx]

This should be fixed in Electron 28 and 29 based VSCode / Codium now.
