distrobox.conf causes distroboxes to not launch after latest system update
I have a ublue-fedora-distrobox one and bazzite-arch one, and I just updated my system, and both are now saying this instead of launching:
This is what I have in my distrobox.conf
If I remove it they launch but now I can't set trillium-next data folder.
This used to work before update

what does the flag do and why you require it
it makes my trillium store my notes in that path that I specified
do you need to set it in distrobox conf? why not set it from your rc file
I just picked the first path that I could find in my system from there https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox?tab=readme-ov-file#configure-distrobox but I will try moving it into the ${HOME}/.distroboxrc one

not distroboxrc, but your bashrc or zshrc
or maybe .profile
oh I tried but it caused an error
I don't remember what it was
I just couldn't find how to do it
try again and post the error
also which application need this?
I think I remember that there was no error and I added this to end of bashrc
export VARNAME="my value" and it just didn't work
but I will try again
triliumnext-binif it doesnt work try
/etc/environment
put TRILIUM_DATA_DIR=/var/mnt/ssd/Notes/Trilium without export
also i saw it have docker, usually its better to run that compared to distroboxwouldn't that disable itself after reboot because its immutable?
I think docker is more heavy but I haven't looked into it
its like a full os
after update probably, but not reboot
distrobox should be more heavier, they use the same tech underneath but distrobox have more integration
nice i think it worked
