Definitely want to try out Prompt, but it seems like waiting for stable is a good call given the devel flatpak seems a little broken for me

Are you on nvidia?

Yes

tnOP•12/14/23, 6:07 PM

Well that'd do it

tnOP•12/14/23, 6:08 PM

Probably because prompt pulls in a newer gtk with this bug than what the rest of the system is using

Kyle Gospo•12/14/23, 6:10 PM

which is also likely because it's in the nightly gnome repo

tnOP•12/14/23, 6:10 PM

Yep

j0rge•12/14/23, 6:14 PM

Will Nvidia users have this problem with a stable release in flathub?

tnOP•12/14/23, 6:17 PM

My other flatpaks seem to be fine, but I'm guessing yes whenever the gtk4 in the runtime gets updated (unless they push a fix before then)

tnOP•12/14/23, 6:18 PM

Seems like GDK_DEBUG=gl-prefer-glGDK_DEBUG=gl-prefer-gl works as a temp workaround

tnOP•12/14/23, 6:21 PM

A stable release of prompt against the current runtime will probably be fine

M2•12/14/23, 6:22 PM

Yeah this appears to be a bigger issue for gtk to solve.

Ttn A stable release of prompt against the current runtime will probably be fine

tnOP•12/14/23, 6:23 PM

Actually I'm not sure. Looks like the current runtime would need to be updated before a stable release would work since prompt depends on things not in the current one

SoMuchForSubtlety•12/14/23, 10:11 PM

Looks like there is finally movement on /opt/opt https://github.com/coreos/rpm-ostree/pull/4728

bsherman•12/15/23, 1:20 AM

i'm not aware of an upstream bug for this, it's just "the way it is" and we've had to rehash it a few times because people don't believe me when I say so

This is exactly why I have made a point to err on the side of keeping our -main-main images too minimal, rather than adding more nice to haves

j0rge•12/15/23, 1:21 AM

Yeah I'm just hoping to have one place to point people so we don't have to keep explaining it over and over

bsherman•12/15/23, 1:22 AM

yeah... i'm searing a bit for another explanation online but not finding one

bsherman•12/15/23, 1:26 AM

It really seems like something which should be covered in this doc: https://coreos.github.io/rpm-ostree/container/#rebasing-a-client-system

bsherman•12/15/23, 1:45 AM

I added a comment to the issue.

Bigpod•12/15/23, 3:04 AM

it is possible to disable but not remove becuase of very basic fact that it is using a OCI IMAGE with some packages disabling works with some it doesnt but from what i have seen not being disabled is mostly function of is it a dependency of something

EyeCantCU•12/15/23, 8:06 PM

I wonder how much bigger the image would be if we embedded just Prompt. Of course, that would come with its own issue of missing updates until the image received an update but it would mean GNOME Terminal could be removed without consequences

j0rge•12/15/23, 8:09 PM

yeah or perhaps as an rpm, but there are vte patches, I figure for now let's let the people who want to opt in play while we discuss with christian on how to do it in a way that works. I kinda don't wanna package it because he put a ton of effort making it flatpak friendly.

Bigpod•12/15/23, 8:32 PM

In my image i plan to keep gnome-terminal if for no other reason as a backup

Bigpod•12/15/23, 8:32 PM

But prompt is a must have

ChaiQi•12/15/23, 9:04 PM

I don't like the idea of replacing Gnome Terminal with Prompt because Prompt is just about the worst possible name for a terminal app and makes troubleshooting nearly impossible

ChaiQi•12/15/23, 9:06 PM

The repo is unsearchable unless you have a direct link

ChaiQi•12/15/23, 9:10 PM

Also, Gnome Terminal has been a reliable and decently feature-complete default for years, while Prompt looks like this for me:

ChaiQi•12/15/23, 9:11 PM

The features I've seen y'all describe sound neat, and I'm all for modern GUI features in a terminal app, but I am not confident in Prompt's readiness for prime time as a default, let alone a singular option with Gnome Terminal completely removed

ChaiQi•12/15/23, 9:24 PM

Mostly the issue for me is that it is unsearchable, so it is difficult or impossible for me to find information about Prompt which could address my other concerns

j0rge•12/15/23, 9:38 PM

yours looks like that because you're on nvidia and it's a nightly snapshot, by the time it lands in flathub you shouldn't have that issue

j0rge•12/15/23, 10:18 PM

j0rge•12/15/23, 10:18 PM

j0rge•12/15/23, 11:03 PM

it's only a few weeks old

ethanjli•12/15/23, 11:19 PM

maybe prompt could benefit a search-friendly alias, like how go has golang

ChaiQi•12/16/23, 12:15 AM

I think so

j0rge•12/16/23, 1:28 AM

@xyny images-website had a bunch of dependabot updates backed up and some of them were pretty severe so I merged them, everything appears to be working normally so just a heads up

Kyle Gospo•12/16/23, 2:29 AM

Want to give this a try for me? You can run it through distro box

tnOP•12/16/23, 2:30 AM

Already got the flatpak working with an env var

tnOP•12/16/23, 2:30 AM

Can try the copr too if you want

Kyle Gospo•12/16/23, 2:30 AM

I would appreciate it, I don't have any Nvidia hardware to test against and I'm thinking about pushing this on a test build
