Run gajim in a Buster of FossaPup container

[libertas]

Hi,

I can't get Gajim in EasyOS to be able to send and receive OMEMO messages.
So, I tried to run Gajim from a Buster or FossaPup container to see if it would work fine.

After installing Gajim and its OMEMO package in both containers. and trying to run Gajim, it's not possible because it refuses to run as root.

Configured in EasyContainers to add the spot user for the containers.
In a terminal, did:
su - spot
then
gajim

But there's a GTK warning saying that gajim cannot open a display.
Tried something as 'env GDK_BACKEND=x11 gajim', but got the same error.
How can I run Gajim it any of these containers?

If you try in a daedalus container, and install Gajin via PKGget, it should ask if you want to run as non-root.

Otherwise, in daedalus container, with Gajim already installed, to run as root only, try this in a terminal:

Code: Select all

# setup-client gajim=true
# gajim

...or whatever the name of the executable is. It will run as user "gajim"

I managed to be able to run Gajim in EasyOS, so didn't have to run it in a Buster or FossaPup container.

There's on package that was not considered as a dependency, but that was necessary: python3-cffi-backend.
