After one of the last updates, I’ve noticed that morc_menu doesn’t start. From the terminal, I have the following:

The current version in the official repositories is;
pacman -Ss morc_menu:
extra/morc_menu 1.0+3+g2d89cb6-1
Categorized desktop application menu
If you have installed it via the AUR, perhaps the version is older, and no longer compatible. Removing it and installing the repo version might help.
Beyond that, I have nothing to add.
Regards.
It works here - the first time I heard about it.
Perhaps some optional dependency is missing or gets in the way?
I’d back up ~/.config/morc_menu and restore from /etc/skel
cp /etc/skel/.config/morc_menu_v1.conf ~/.config/morc_menu
or compare the two, at least.
Here is what the installation looked like:
sudo pacman -S morc_menu

It’s not in AUR or in the Arch package repos - only in Manjaro repos.
I’ll take your word for it, I didn’t check.
I’ve diffed the config file and there are no changes. I have the correct version installed:

[edit] dmenu-manjaro was updated on 2025-03-31 so maybe that broke things. Other optional packages I’ve installed sufficiently long ago that they must not have impact on this.
That may be. Or not.

I was suggesting to diff the config file - not the binary /usr/bin/morc_menu
Yes, I diffed the config ofc.
You have installed all the optional dependencies with the exception of rootmenu
I installed none of those.zenity already installed prior to this)
Perhaps some of these - as they are labelled as Alternative frontend - are not working well together?
I have no further ideas.
In terms of dependencies, xdotool and wmutils I’ve had for quite some time and looking at the install dates there were no recent updates. Rofi was updated last month, so I can also eliminate it. The only items left standing are dmenu-manjaro, which depends on manjaro-i3-settings which was also recently updated.

The error occurs because of the default settings of morc_menu in its configuration file ~/.config/morc_menu/morc_menu_v1.conf.
In line 96 the -w switch has to be changed to -z so that the width of the morc_menu window can be displayed.
Open the file and change line 96 from
menu_cmd="dmenu -i -l MENU_LINES -x X_POSITION -y Y_POSITION -w MENU_WIDTH ${DMENU_OPTIONS} "
to
menu_cmd="dmenu -i -l MENU_LINES -x X_POSITION -y Y_POSITION -z MENU_WIDTH ${DMENU_OPTIONS}"
After the change morc_menu should work again.
I assume this happened because of the dmenu-manjaro package that got updated lately.
