Zeglius•7/27/24, 10:42 AM

Ashlynn•7/27/24, 10:45 AM

this command didn't end up working, it kept both the old Steam and just made a copy called Steam_old

ZZeglius its normal, we removed that from the installer, is disabled by default

Rremi1771 But it asks for root password when I try to install apps

quince•7/27/24, 10:46 AM

Isn't that your user's password?

Zeglius•7/27/24, 10:46 AM

Steam will recreate the folder

Rremi1771 But it asks for root password when I try to install apps

Gorujo-kunOP•7/27/24, 10:46 AM

you are trying to install in dnf? Did you require a password?

Ashlynn•7/27/24, 10:46 AM

it's updating steam now, lets see if it works lol

Qquince Isn't that your user's password?

remi1771•7/27/24, 10:46 AM

Nope, I tried

Zeglius•7/27/24, 10:46 AM

if something goes wrong, we can rename back Steam_old to Steam

GGorujo-kun you are trying to install in dnf? Did you require a password?

remi1771•7/27/24, 10:46 AM

Dnf? No idea but like, the welcome app already asks for root authentification

Gorujo-kunOP•7/27/24, 10:47 AM

ohh

Zeglius•7/27/24, 10:47 AM

Mmm steam works for me

Gorujo-kunOP•7/27/24, 10:47 AM

ZZeglius Mmm steam works for me

Gorujo-kunOP•7/27/24, 10:47 AM

Ashlynn•7/27/24, 10:47 AM

AAshlynn root password is your user password

Gorujo-kunOP•7/27/24, 10:47 AM

AAshlynn root password is your user password

remi1771•7/27/24, 10:47 AM

GGorujo-kun you are trying to install in dnf? Did you require a password?

Zeglius•7/27/24, 10:47 AM

We do not ship dnf, rpm-ostree is used instead

ZZeglius Mmm steam works for me

Ashlynn•7/27/24, 10:47 AM

you tried rebasing intto plasma? lol

Zeglius•7/27/24, 10:48 AM

Ashlynn•7/27/24, 10:48 AM

ZZeglius We do not ship dnf, rpm-ostree is used instead

Gorujo-kunOP•7/27/24, 10:48 AM

ah so dnf is used as an alias for rpm-ostree? Hey I could be wrong

GGorujo-kun tried that it seems

remi1771•7/27/24, 10:48 AM

Safe to delete the old right?

Ashlynn•7/27/24, 10:48 AM

GGorujo-kun ah so dnf is used as an alias for rpm-ostree? Hey I could be wrong

Zeglius•7/27/24, 10:49 AM
