Rcloneview not starting on rPI

I’ve installed rcloneview on a raspberryPi 5 running rPiOS 12 (Debian)

sudo dpkg -i rclone_view-0.8.360+1-linux-aarch64.deb

completed with no errors, and creates the icon in the “internet” start menu group, but … clicking that does nothing.

rclone –version gives

rclone v1.60.1-DEV

  • os/version: raspbian 12.11 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 6.12.43-v8-16k+ (aarch64)

Am I missing something obvious?

Thank you for your feedback. We will test RcloneView in the same environment and get back to you with our findings.

Since we do not have a Raspberry Pi device available, we will install RPi OS 12 on a virtual machine for testing. Thank you for your understanding.

Could you please check if the rclone_view binary was correctly installed?
You can do this by running the following command:

ls -l /usr/share/rclone_view/

If you see a binary named rclone_view in that directory, try executing it directly from the terminal:

/usr/share/rclone_view/rclone_view

This will help us confirm whether the issue is with the installation itself or with the desktop shortcut not launching properly. Could you let us know the result?

so, /usr/share/rclone_view/rclone_view gave me this error:
/usr/share/rclone_view/rclone_view: error while loading shared libraries: libayatana-appindicator3.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

sudo apt install libappindicator3-1 fixed that

I then got this error

rclone_view:25542): Atk-CRITICAL **: 14:08:04.136: atk_socket_embed: assertion ‘plug_id != NULL’ failed
Opening /dev/dri/renderD128 failed: Permission denied
TU: error: ../src/freedreno/vulkan/tu_knl.cc:315: failed to open device /dev/dri/renderD128 (VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER)

but after a reboot that went away, and all working fine now - thanks for the pointer
