Tried to create arch container instead met with sed error and abort
I tried making a fresh container for arch and was met with sed errors and unable to have write permission to $BUILDDIR home/eyes within the container. How would I resolve this?

I have no idea how your perms got messed up like that, though I'm not as familiar with the blend codebase as akshara, and it's been a while
Solution
its a fresh install shoud I just reinstall?
really only thing Id lose is the games I redownloaded haha and my gnome setup
sure, go ahead and reinstall, i'll try to see if i can find anything relevant that might be causing the issue
but my best guess would be that something else is causing the problem, i don't think it's blend's fault
It could be the nordvpn permission group I added
(though it does need better error handling)
don't think so, idk how that would affect it, but i know pretty much nothing about your setup :p
anything I can give you to help you before I reinstall?
what are the perms on
~/.local/share/applications/
? and what about the files in it?
you can use ls -l
to checkand as for the directory itself?
do
ls -la
that'll list .
and ..
as well (and hidden files ofc)hm alright
i'll def have to dig into blend again later, not familiar enough with it off the top of my head
but safe bet reinstall im guessing haha
oh while i have you do you have any idea why after my first update some of my flatpaks disappeared?
okay that's even weirder
my guess would be user error, i don't see any way akshara could possibly have caused that :p
it was after I updated my system.yaml
@EyesWithoutAFace, you've gained the level
1
yeah i don't see how akshara could have caused it though, my best guess is some change in your system.yaml, or some other user error was applied on reboot or something
yeah probably
oh also in the future, please have logs and stuff as files/code blocks as well if possible, just makes things easier
@Asterisk can we get that in the "read before posting" thing?
Is ``` not a codeblock
How do you do the code block
yeah that's a code block
```
like this
```
Oh you meant my screenshot?
yeah
Oh I didn't have much time to copy so I screenshotted
Like it gave me two seconds my apologies
dw lol
Funny how this isnthe first linux distro I broke haha
So is it better to make one container for like yay instead of individual containers for apps
it doesn't really matter and there's are advantages and disadvantages to each
like, one container for a distro will use less space
but one app per container ensures you only have to deal with the dependencies for that app
though dependency hell is pretty uncommon sooooo that doesn't matter much
i'd say just have one for whatever distro, then have another for an individual app if it's being a pain and has conflicting dependencies
Yeah I came from cachyos and I was getting dependency hell
But thank you im hoping some people make some videos for blend ill close this when I get back to my PC
