7z still has issues on Bazzite GNOME with a directory that... can't???? exist?
So I'm trying to get Mod Organizer 2 installed and I found this issue, previously discussed and unanswered by moderators on February of 2025 that Mod Organizer 2, needed to mod games using Vortex, does not accept the p7zip directory and requires a 7z directory instead. As a result, p7zip does not even work on Bazzite, however I can extract .7z files no problem.
[Image 2] shows my error: it needs a 7z directory. [Image 1] shows what my PC is trying to do with the p7zip directory. It's been discussed on Reddit with no luck, it's apparently been discussed here with no luck, and its so bad Stack Overflow doesn't know what to do, so I'm apparently the only one noticed that's ever asked this question :/
And yes this is practically the same issue as what was discussed last on the 10th of February, however they have been waiting for an answer for almost 2 months with no answer back from developers or moderators, despite requesting an answer back a few times :<
Solution
forked the code and made a release. https://github.com/wolfyreload/modorganizer2-linux-installer/releases/ hope it works for you. The app is a bit fiddly, the first time I tried to install it failed and then the second time it worked
