Recently I am facing a problem and can't open my Sublime Text. It worked for me since few days ago. But now it's not working. When I type 

sudo sublime

then it shows the following error. And it's not openning.

(sublime:16435): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type `GSimpleAsyncResult' (sublime:16435): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type `GAsyncResult' (sublime:16435): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_interface_add_prerequisite: assertion `G_TYPE_IS_INTERFACE (interface_type)' failed (sublime:16435): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `result != 0' failed (sublime:16435): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_add_interface_static: assertion `G_TYPE_IS_INSTANTIATABLE (instance_type)' failed (sublime:16435): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `result != 0' failed (sublime:16435): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_new: assertion `G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed

I am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Thanks in advance.

  • Why do you want to run it as super user? if it's because of the permissions, change your permissions in a way so your user and web server can read/write/access the fies Commented Oct 28, 2013 at 7:28
  • I used it with this same command in previous. I think sudo is not causing the problem. Also I tried to run without sudo. It shows same problem. @Arsham Commented Oct 29, 2013 at 7:59
  • "g_once_init_leave assertion" problem is due to an old policykit version ( probably ). I'm not using ubuntu ( I'm on a rolling release ) but it might surprise you if you upgrade your ubuntu. ST developer assumes you have the latest softwares. Plus try to create another user, run it in the new environment and see if it works ( without sudo ) Commented Oct 30, 2013 at 1:15

I faced a similar situation in an old Ubuntu 12.04 installation.

The solution in my case was found by running:

sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
