software-properties-gtk crashes Ubuntu 18.04
I am working on an Ubuntu 18.04 install in chroot. I am using the latest Xfce desktop from the official repos and have no broken dependencies. For some odd reason, I keep getting the error below when I try to open "Software & Updates" (aka software-properties-gtk from the command line), I made sure that /proc was mounted so top worked and that fixed part of my issues already, but left the error report you see below when I try to run the command to open this app. And, I ran
xhost +
in the host machine (also running Ubuntu 18.04) to make sure the chroot can do graphical stuff. I also tried turning this into a live ISO and still get the exact same error on there as I do in chroot. Is there a way to fix this?
