Insync not working on Gnome 40 (with workaround)

On the latest ArchLinux AUR package (3.4.2.40983-2), this all started working again for me.

That update includes the workarounds mentioned in Crash when changing sync folders (Linux; with solution) and Crash changing sync directory (with fix).

Note: I wasn’t trying to change my sync folder. Maybe I did once a long time ago. At some point with an update, things just stopped working, or maybe it was when I upgraded to Gnome 40 and switched to Wayland.

So, with this update:

  • No special flags are needed to load
  • Sizing / scaling is all correct
  • Mouse mapping is correct
  • Tray icon is back

and everything works.

Thanks also to @mia who has been working with me by email for a long time on this too!
