Bug Description After updating to Cursor 0.46.9-5, the application immediately crashes on launch with a SIGTRAP (core dumped) error. The issue was not present in previous versions. This occurs on Wayland (Hyprland) with Arch Linux. Steps to Reproduce Install Cursor from cursor-bin via yay or manu…

I’m also having this issue on arch linux gnome (wayland)

I just downgraded to 0.45. I’ll try again with 0.46 or later (maybe).

It seems they reverted to 0.46.8. The aur package cursor-bin also has been rolled back. I just tried it and it launched now! Version: 0.46.8 VSCode Version: 1.96.2 Commit: be4f0962469499f009005e66867c8402202ff0b0 Date: 2025-02-28T19:38:20.821Z Electron: 32.2.6 Chromium: 128.0.6613.186 Node.js: 20.1…

Interesting. I may give that a try. Thanks.

Opening cursor with cursor . broke btw. See my aur comment

And the AUR version of 0.46.11-1 was a fail this morning. It did not work at all. I got the same errors in terminal and it never opened. I rolled back (again) to 0.45.14. I may try the appimage of 0.46.8 that @ardasevinc said worked and install it on the side to test.

Looks like all of this is about this glib2 issue It was actually fixed by setting XDG_DATA_DIRS before launching cursor. See this aur comment @flaturtha give it a try with the XDG_DATA_DIRS fix. I just tried with the latest 0.46 version on AUR and can verify it works

I’m finally getting back to working in Cursor today so I’ll give this a try. I was having issues with general pacman updates this morning. EDIT. I upgraded to 0.46.11-1 and ran with the XDG fix and it seems to be working well. Thanks!!
