Bazzite Portal won't setup Bazzite-Arch container after rebase [Solved]
Hello,
I just rebased from regular Silverblue ublue image and I am trying to run Bazzite Portal to help ma setup everything I need.
I'm getting the error:
Is there something I am doing wrong?

Hi Radu,
I had a similar issue during one of my test installs, though I don't remember if the error message was exactly the same.
I would suggest continuing through the rest of the steps if there's anything else you want to add, then follow these instructions to manually add the
distrobox container.

Thanx a lot. Actually I am getting the same justfile error for anything I might want to install from the portal. I'll try the manual install and write when I'm done
Sounds good, thanks. If it's happening with all steps, you may want to run the re-base command again. If possible, please connect to Ethernet.
All right then, I'll try to rebase again, then I'll see if anything changes
👍
Wait, I don't believe I can rebase again...
are you able to reboot to your original silverblue install?
unfortunately not... For some reason:
I might be able to rebase back and forth between two images
That could work.
May not be helpful at the moment, but wanted to make sure you saw this: https://universal-blue.org/images/#preparing-to-rebase
Do you have a good backup of personal files, etc.?

Yeah, I saw it. It does say I do have a Pika backup setup on an external drive as backup
okay good. I'm still getting used to this new way of managing things, but it's always good to know you have a backup.
Try a different image and let me know what happens.
no luck 😦
same issue
@KyleGospo any idea what's going on here? My suggestion would be do a clean install (since we do have a backup) at this point, but that may be overkill.
yah that is weird,never tryed the arch variant
i wish i could help :(
This is not the arch variant, it's
Arch is just the container that Steam runs in
I'd rather not do a clean install if it can be helped 😄
what happens if you close the installer, open a Terminal and run
just update?
I'd rather you not have to do that too.Just to be totally sure, have we rebooted at all yet since the first reboot with the installer-helper?
I just rebooted and tried everything again (Portal and just update) and nothing is different
Okay, I'll have to defer to someone more familiar with it at this point.
Cool! Thanx a lot for your help
No problem, sorry I couldn't resolve it for you!
Everything looks fine as far as versions and all that
Seems like the just file isn't being picked up though
Going to look into this and see if I can find anything that might cause it
Of course, using https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite-arch I managed to create the container. I just wonder why the justfile doesn't work. Does it have something to do with my install or could there be a possible bug?

try
just --list fpaste
and toss what you have here
I confirmed desktop is working fine in a VM
so it's not some new bug, very curious what you getwow microscopic
you are missing a TON
doesn't even fit on one page for me
That's what my girlfriend said
lmao
what's in /usr/share/ublue-os/just/ for you?
cat custom.just | fpaste
well, there's your file
it's definitely there
why just doesn't see it by default though I don't know
could be an env variable or something??
@EyeCantCU may have an idea
I've found the ublue-os-just.sh script doesn't always properly create the justfile (happened to me twice so far over the last several months of installations). What you need to do is go into ~/.justfile and add:
Now I get:
also, would be nice if one could select this text and copy it 😄
I most likely misunderstood what you told me to do 😄
Mm seems like we should just put the justfile in /etc/skel.d - do you know if there’s a reason we don’t do that?
Oh the user is created during installation 🤔
That's all that should be in that file. Nothing else is there?
Yeah. I can't think of anything that would better substitute what we already have
I understood "add" as in "append". I deleted everything, just put those lines, rebooted, all is well 😄
maybe we should add this as a known issue or somewhere people can have access to the steps I just did 😄
