Assotiations not working

hey, i created arch container, and i tried to associate yay from both gui app and user command, however it doesn't work. yay works if ran inside a container shell so i guess it's not yay issue. idk if worth noting but currently i am running blendos in a vm

@MikMik, you've gained the level 1
·𐑑𐑬𐑣𐑱
No I don't think it does
sudo pacman -S --needed git base-devel
sudo pacman -S --needed git base-devel
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
cd yay && makepkg -si
cd yay && makepkg -si
here in the arch container do those three commands in order from top to bottom @MikMik

is pfetch installed in the arch container OH you're using fish that's why you have to use the included bash sorry that bash is what can use assosciations and whatnot

I think it's just adding blend_bin to path? Fwiw, if yay.arch doesn't work, it's not the associations that are causing issues

fuck i know what is the issue i applied my dotfiles from silverblue using chezmoi and it overwrote path

Yea, I was gonna say, i didn't have to do anything special to get fish to work Just add .local/bin/blend_bin to path

This is just untrue; the only place you have to use bash is "user shell container_name" because it hardcodes the shell as bash, but you can still use fish in containers, just not with the shell cmd

I meant on the host and by default

"you have to use bash" is misleading though, but no worries
