This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). The promise rejected with the reason:
Error: dialog module can only be used after app is ready

Looks like a build problem.  If you have an account with them, file a support case.  They might want what I pasted above.

If one needs more functionality than is included in the neutered Debian KeepassXC package, this is probably a good time to consider the KeepassXC AppImage or Flatpak.  There might be an extra step with each in getting browser integration working.

I wouldn't be able to use the current Debian package.  That's a no go.

#3 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] How to fix unicode text, it's showing as a box » 2023-12-31 02:25:59

You have to install fonts that support that needed character.  Whatever it may be.  Could so be an emoji.

The Nerd fonts are popular for emojis and icons.  You may need special language fonts for special characters and the like.  In essence, which ones, it's hard to say.  I'm not sure there is a good way.

A web search for "unicode FF5C" indicates it's a fullwidth vertical line in a common math equations.

Good luck.

I'd get one of those physical laptop privacy screens, the kind that you can only see the screen if it's right directly in front of you.  Any views from an angle are black.

Firefox said they'd make Wayland the default window/display in some future release.  That doesn't mean they won't continue to support X11.  There are plenty of long-term distros that will stay around for years (or longer).

#6 Re: Off-topic » Why still they don't solve that infamous systemd shutdown problem » 2023-07-19 00:54:00

Usually that's an errant program/service that isn't listening on the shutdown requests, and gets killed by a watchdog process at about 90 seconds.
