YARC Launcher 1.0.0 for YARG (Yet Another Rhythm Game) errors out on Steam Deck BPM & GM
The devs for YARG released an update to their launcher YARC, version 1.0.0: https://github.com/YARC-Official/YARC-Launcher.
When trying to launch it on my Steam Deck OLED with Bazzite 40, an error message of "path not allowed on the configured scope: /home/ProjectNexus/.config/in.yarg.launcher/" pops up in the launcher. This happens in both Game Mode and Big Picture Mode.
Another Bazzite user reported the same issue on their GitHub repo but it seems no solution was found yet. I then tried running the launcher on my PC running KDE Neon 6.0 and it works fine.
Launcher versions prior to their 1.0.0 update work. Is anyone else willing to try the launcher update to see if they have the same issue to help determine if it is indeed an issue with the launcher or a configuration in Bazzite?

i'm also getting the same error with the launcher on bazzite
Exact same error as reported in their github, and excat same entries in the log file
I've found the issue to be something with using a BTRFS formatted filesystem. To get the latest launcher working, I used Gear Lever to install the appimage, and added a variable to set XDG_CONFIG_HOME to my SD Card, which is formatted EXT4. You can also use that variable with the launcher shortcut added to Steam and %command% added to the end of the variable. The only issue is images are broken in the launcher. The game itself works as it should.
well, that doesn't help any of us that have everything formated btrfs
