AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'append_search_path'
Running meld from terminal I get:
$ meld
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
2022-02-14 14:03:15,541 CRITICAL Gtk: gtk_icon_theme_get_for_screen: assertion 'GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed
Traceback (most recent call last):

Gtk.IconTheme.get_default().append_search_path(icon_dir)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'append_search_path'
while running it from the application launcher everything works. I know this is somehow my configuration that is wrong (pointers?) but I think having some checks at the beginning of execution and a clearer message might help ;)
This is on Gnome 3.36.8 Kernel 5.4.0 bash 5.0.17
Many thanks
