from notepad-plus-plus.

same error execl failed? maybe try rebooting system when updated core from edge, also try removing wine snaps i.e notepad-plus-plus and wine-platform.

I'll setup f29 vm to test this issue.

It is the issue with snapd on fedora 29 and nothing wrong with your setup. I've tested f29 vm had same issue so then I reported the issue. Snapd devs have acknowledged issue and posted bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1824158

from notepad-plus-plus.

Finally fixed in snapd-2.39-1.fc30.x86_64

error seems like snapd bug can you try workaround posted in the link report.

Thank you @mmtrt! This bug in fact looks related, however the fix proposed over there (snap refresh core --beta) did not solve the problem. I also restarted snapd and reinstalled the Notepad++ snap.

Looks like it is something snap-related then - I'll give it another go later and keep you updated.

Weird - I still couldn't make it run, even with downgrading snapd. Closing the issue though - since likely it has nothing to do with my beloved notepad-plus-plus. Thanks for assisting!

FYI - it still persists... Am I the only one?

Same same... did everything you mentioned, then:

wine-platform 3.0.4-4.0 from Taqi Raza (mmtrt) installed
notepad-plus-plus 7.6.6 from Taqi Raza (mmtrt) installed
[@localhost ~]$ notepad-plus-plus 
execl failed: No such file or directory
child exited with status 1

Thank you for looking into it - I am curious if it is general to Fedora 29 or it is something with my setup...

I see - thank you for being so keen on finding an answer. I'll be looking forward for the snapd update :)
