Why does `sudo gnome-text-editor` throw GLib-GIO-CRITICAL error?

  • 772

Whenever I try to launch a system file to edit it using sudo gnome-text-editor, I get the error

(gnome-text-editor:64141): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: 17:47:31.731: g_dbus_connection_emit_signal: assertion 'object_path != NULL && g_variant_is_object_path (object_path)' failed

This occurs multiple times for each attempt at opening a file. Why is this?

sudo

  1. I found in the german wiki on gio the following command

    gedit admin:///etc/fstab

    The place admin:// seems to be designed for accessing with admin rights.
