Describe the bug
VSCodium AppImage conflicts with packages on Manjaro and will not run. Trying to execute AppImage from GUI results in no action. Executing AppImage from terminal reveal error:

codium: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_module_open_full

Please confirm that this problem is VSCodium-specific

  • This bug doesn't happen if I use Microsoft's Visual Studio Code. It only happens in VSCodium.
    Tested this by installing Code-OSS from Arch community repository
    Also set up new Manjaro installation on another computer and tried running the AppImage there. Had the same result.

Please confirm that the issue/resolution isn't already documented

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Run Manjaro VM
  2. Update packages to latest version
  3. Execute VSCodium AppImage

Expected behavior
Application should run

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Manjaro Linux
  • Architecture: x86_64
  • Version: n/a

Additional context
After updating my system packages yesterday, trying to execute the AppImage as normal (from GUI/rofi) resulted in no action. Executing AppImage from the terminal produced this error:

codium: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_module_open_full

Found this Arch forum post with a similar problem for a different AppImage

Patched VSCodium AppImage with glib2 version 2.68.4.

When executing the patched AppImage a similar error occurs, but now it is a different library/package:

codium: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libtracker-sparql-3.0.so.0: undefined symbol: sqlite3_expanded_sql

I had the exact same error,
Patched VSCodium with glib2 version 2.70.0

When I executed the patched Appimage, i got this error :
codium: error while loading shared libraries: libffi.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

However you can install the aur vscodium-bin (pamac install vscodium-bin) package which works fine on Manjaro (at least for me)

Can you try VSCodium-1.63.2-1639774037.glibc2.17-x86_64.AppImage.zip?
I've been able to make it run under Arch and Fedora 34/35 while being built on Ubuntu 18.04.
The changes I've made can be found at #944.

It also works on my OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. Thanks!

See AppImage/AppImageKit#1162. Looks like something that needs to be fixed over at AppImageKit. Rebuilding the AppImage then should fix the issue.

daiyam commented

The issue is due to the libraries libgmodule-2.0.so and libsqlite3.so. (AppImageCommunity/pkg2appimage#494 (comment))

I'm having this issue using VSCodium-1.63.2-1639700424.glibc2.17-x86_64.AppImage.

/tmp/.mount_codeeXHAOK/usr/share/codium/codium --unity-launch: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libgio-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_module_open_full

Using Gentoo Linux amd64 with glib-2.70.2.

Worked around it by downgrading to glib-2.68.4.

@daiyam sorry mate, I can only run official releases from this repo. I see your PR #944 was already merged, so I'll wait until the next release :) thank you for your work.

daiyam commented

The AppImage for 1.64 is working. Can you confirm? Thx

nuno-silva commented

Just confirmed VSCodium-1.64.0-1643956064.glibc2.17-x86_64.AppImage is working for me with both glib-2.68.4 and glib-2.70.2. Thank you

Seems like it's happening again with VSCodium-1.65.0-1646384533.glibc2.17-x86_64.AppImage on Fedora Workstation 35.

Yep! I have the same error...

daiyam commented

I'm regenerating the AppImage with the fix.
