Arch Gnome-Terminal timeout

I switched my DM from LightDM to GDM and now I cannot launch gnome-terminal. When I try to launch it from another terminal emulator, I get this error message:



# Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal: Timeout was reached



I suspect it has something to do with my location, but my lang is set to en_US.UTF-8



<~>-> locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="C"

  • I’ve seen GNOME Terminal not starting while LC_ALL=C was in effect. I then switched to using LC_COLLATE=C and LC_NUMERIC=C, which for my purpose were enough. If that works for you, too, and brings back GNOME Terminal, I can see about converting this to an answer.

I'm not sure what exactly I did to fix this, but I think it was some combination of:



sudo locale-gen --purge
sudo locale-gen
localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
sudo fc-cache -f -v
