2026-06-01 00:50:45 Can somebody provide some insight regarding update_config_sub on #18225 2026-06-01 01:00:55 el[m]1: not sure about the cause, sorry 2026-06-01 01:09:11 Ok so it is definitely the GNOME section of the setup-desktop script that is broken 2026-06-01 01:09:40 I just did a manual installation of gnome and it worked. 2026-06-01 01:10:07 Although I will say that there is a lot of gnome packages missing doing it manually and some of them are not even loading right. 2026-06-01 01:10:20 Like gnome terminal for instance. that won't even start. 2026-06-01 01:16:49 Does anyone know who is in charge of gnome for alpine linux, or the setup-desktop script? 2026-06-01 01:19:03 team/gnome 2026-06-01 01:19:35 best is probably if you document your findings in an aports issue 2026-06-01 01:21:15 What is the best way to get in touch with them in real time? 2026-06-01 01:23:26 maybe check the alpine-devel channel? 2026-06-01 01:23:39 Is thatr bridged to matrix too? 2026-06-01 01:23:54 s/thatr/that/ 2026-06-01 01:23:57 guess so 2026-06-01 01:25:53 longnoserob[m]: Found it 2026-06-01 01:25:54 thank you 2026-06-01 01:32:48 good 2026-06-01 06:09:14 Hey folks. I'm noticing that my window manager gets a dbus session bus under /tmp due the dbus session.conf file (and being launched via dbus-run-session) and another dbus session bus gets created under /run/user due to the openrc user config file. It's causing some issues due to programs getting different addresses depending on how they are launched. Have I set this up wrong? 2026-06-01 06:21:17 I do not use dbus-run-session but tinydm 2026-06-01 06:42:28 I'm wondering if dbus-run-session is redundant with the user service creating one. It is a well known path so maybe I can have greetd provide it to the wm. 2026-06-01 06:45:11 i think so 2026-06-01 06:49:48 with the user service is redundant 2026-06-01 08:17:19 ptrckd: that's basically how it went in systemd – the user bus was originally for background stuff, but eventually having two became an issue, and the user bus became used as the one and only session bus (with the "one GUI session per UID" limit arising from that) 2026-06-01 08:18:25 I don't know how far openrc implements user services, but either way, once you have a user-wide bus, it's *probably* better to use that for everything, and dbus-run-session then becomes redundant 2026-06-01 10:04:18 WhyNotHugo: Maybe a missing cd thing. Will take a look later 2026-06-01 10:07:34 Okay, that worked. I used a wrapper script similar to what greetd says to do for sway and sourced the address from the openrc dbus user config. 2026-06-01 10:17:47 One other thing I stumbled on when cleaning up my neovim config... The neovim pkg symlinks the tree-sitter parsers from /usr/lib/tree-sitter such that neovim can find it but it doesn't do something similar for the tree-sitter queries in /usr/share/tree-sitter. Is that intentional? If not I'd be interested in trying to submit a fix if someone could give me some idea of what I'd need to do. 2026-06-01 10:18:45 There is an open issue describing the issues for that 2026-06-01 10:29:47 Thanks! I see #18217. 2026-06-01 11:18:21 uhhh 2026-06-01 11:18:24 im outside right now 2026-06-01 11:18:31 but if it hasnt been merged yeti 2026-06-01 11:18:43 please dont merge the arahli version bump 2026-06-01 11:18:56 theres an issue i spotted that ill need to fix when i get back home 2026-06-01 11:18:59 thanks! 2026-06-01 11:19:20 if it has been merged its fine too, just might be a hassle for reviewers to review another ME 2026-06-01 11:19:22 mr* 2026-06-01 11:44:13 gday, question: when is 2.24 planned? 2026-06-01 11:45:39 kopernic: ASAP.
