Recommended way to setup autostart entries of apps installed in distrobox
question
hey guys, since flatpak firefox doesn't want to cooperate with plasma desktop integration extension, i installed it inside arch linux distrobox but i'm not exactly sure how to properly set it up to autostart.
just adding the exported desktop entry doesn't seem to work until i manually start the distrobox so i tried doing the following using quadlets:
1.
2.
3.
now it seems to be working but enabling the service nuked my existing distrobox and i had to reinstall firefox in it
is this supposed to happen or did i do something incorrectly along the way? from quick search it seemed like quadlets were the only way to get exported apps to start along with the system.
