barrier and bazzite 3.5.0
Hi all,
First... total linux noob here. Just started playing with bazzite a few weeks ago.
I just updated to 3.5 a few days ago. I use barrier between my two machines. Since the upgrade to 3.5, barrier crashes as soon as I launch it. I uninstalled the flatpak and reinstalled, but gives a message that the runtime/org.kde.Platform/x86_64/5.15-22.08 is no longer receiving updates.
From what I can tell, it seems that there may not be a runtime that supports KDE 6.1? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Barrier is discontinued afaik, I use Input Leap which is a fork of barrier and has wayland support
(As long as you are using Gnome >=45 or KDE >= 6.1)
They don't have a flatpak public available yet but you can run it inside a distrobox no problem.
It is still compatible with barrier so you can use it as a drop-in replacement.

I currently have a archlinux pod for running it and exported the application through BoxBuddy (pre installed in bazzite)
Thanks so much - sounds like today's project. 🙂 I had been searching for a while for something else as it seemed odd to me there wasn't much recent development on barrier.
Did you have to give permissions to the local file system? I am running cmake but getting an error:
CMake Error at build/cmake_install.cmake:57 (file):
file INSTALL cannot copy file
"/home/psirix/containers/input-leap/res/io.github.input_leap.InputLeap.svg"
to
"/usr/local/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/io.github.input_leap.InputLeap.svg":
Read-only file system.
Nevermind... I'm a dummy. Didn't realize there was an arch package for it. Up and running!
