Upgraded from Ubuntu 20 to 22.04.4, Opensnitch UI not opening (original) (raw)

Hi there

I migrated from Ubuntu 20 to Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS and Opensnitch doesn't work (version 1.6.5).

I tried opening it from the application launcher in Ubuntu but nothing happens when I click the icon.

I ran $ opensnitch-ui and got the following error:

`Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/opensnitch-ui", line 41, in
from opensnitch.service import UIService
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/opensnitch/service.py", line 15, in

TypeError: Descriptors cannot be created directly.
If this call came from a _pb2.py file, your generated code is out of date and must be regenerated with protoc >= 3.19.0.
If you cannot immediately regenerate your protos, some other possible workarounds are:

1. Downgrade the protobuf package to 3.20.x or lower.
2. Set PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python (but this will use pure-Python parsing and will be much slower).

Any clue what's happening here?
