Using DisplayCAL on Manjaro Linux, clicking the “Visual whitepoint editor” icon under the Calibration tab (having changed “Whitepoint” to “Chromaticity coordinates”) only results in a pop-up error message which reads:

startswith first arg must be str or a tuble of str, not bytes

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/DisplayCAL/display_cal.py", line 6623, in visual_whitepoint_editor_handler

) or display_name.startswith(b"Chromecast"):

TypeError: startswith first arg must be str or a tuble of str, not bytes

I checked the logs and there doesn’t seem to be anything relevant logged, as the log files haven’t been changed since before this happened.
