[Bug]: idle_add() got an unexpected keyword argument 'plain'

[gabrielsouza-dev]

Describe the bug

Every time I finish installing the game, everything seems to be OK, but when I click to start it in the launcher, the game simply won't open, even if I try several times, open and close Bottles, delete it, and create another bottle. I even tried using different executors than wine/proton, but none of them worked. The only thing that happens is that it closes the launcher and after a few seconds opens it again, as if something went wrong when starting the game.

This bug happens every time I create a bottle for the HoYoPlay launcher that I only use to play Genshin Impact specifically. Whether I install it manually or through the Bottles program menu, the same thing happens.

To Reproduce

1. Create a new bottle
2. Download the HoYoPlay launcher (either from the official website or from the Bottles program list)
3. Install the launcher
4. Install the Genshin Impact game
5. Start the game from the launcher
6. The launcher closes
7. The game does not open
8. A few seconds later, the launcher opens again

Troubleshooting Logs

idle_add() got an unexpected keyword argument 'plain'  File "/app/share/bottles/bottles/backend/utils/threading.py", line 62, in __target

Additional context

The only alternative I found was to install Port-Proton, which has a specific version of Wine for the HoYoPlay Launcher (version 10-10), it works like magic by the way. Other than this error, Bottles has always worked very well.

I am happy if I can help in any way with this feedback.

Does your distro support Flatpak? If so, here is the link: https://flathub.org/apps/ru.linux_gaming.PortProton. I installed it from the Pop OS store itself

This is the kernel version of my system: Linux pop-os 6.12.10-76061203-generic #202412060638175139074222.04~79b9668 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue J x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I think switching to a newer one could cause problems, right?

Quick and Dirty Fix:

cd $(flatpak info --show-location com.usebottles.bottles)
cd files/share/bottles/bottles/frontend/views/
sudo vi bottle_dependencies.py 

find line with

GLib.idle_add(new_dependency, dep, plain=True)

delete
, plain=True

Result:
[...]/files/share/bottles/bottles/frontend/views/bottle_dependencies.py
[...]
GLib.idle_add(new_dependency, dep)
