LACT install fails with Zstd decompression error

Freshly installed Bazzite (39, Gnome, desktop image) two days ago. When going through the portal, the LACT section fails with an error about Zstd decompression. I have rerun the script with ujust install-lact, as I read elsewhere in discord (when searching for LACT) that this is exactly what the portal does in the background. This resulted in the attached error log. I was uncertain whether it is a Bazzite bug, ostree bug, or a LACT-side bug. But in any case I drop it here in case a workaround is known. Just now I also retried, as there was an update in the meantime, but the error is still there with the above command.

Ah sorry forgot to ping here Yes, in :testing this should be all good adwaita installed on GNOME and the normal UI one on KDE huge update is coming to :main within the week

NivveOP•10mo ago

How can I check if I am in testing or main? Due to the mok key enrolling the rebase to testing went wrong and did not have time to debug that.

Kyle Gospo•10mo ago

rpm-ostree status will show the URL of your image

NivveOP•10mo ago

ah yeah, I am on :latest, so that would be the main branch I guess. So LACT is now fixed there, thanks 🙂 (also looking forward to the good stuff in big update from :testing btw)

Kyle Gospo•10mo ago

let me know if you need any help w/ that key gotta get that figured out before that update lands or turn secure boot off

NivveOP•10mo ago

Let me actually do another attempt to rebase in a few

Kyle Gospo•10mo ago

you can enroll it from your current image w/ ujust enroll-secure-boot-key before you rebase

NivveOP•10mo ago

Hmmm, no error this time for rebasing. rpm-ostree status says :testing now. Both before and after rebasing enrolling the key simply give the message that it was already done.

Kyle Gospo•10mo ago

sweet! testing will go to latest by next weekend so you can rebase back or stick on testing by then This was a rare situation where testing was allowed to be quite far ahead of latest due to the secure boot issue we had to resolve

NivveOP•10mo ago

No worries, glad it is apparently solved. Will stay in testing. Rebasing is so easy to switch back to main whenever needed anyway 🙂
