Things ive tried... remove hyprland ostree package -> systemctl reboot -> reinstall hyprland package --> reboot still there and and never removed cant override to install hyprpanel
when trying to remove it says
how did you install these packages & how did you try to remove them exactly? also rpm-ostree status -v?
I tried to install them by enabling the solasha hyprland copr which I ran then I did once logged into hyprland i tried to run hyprpanel found the command wasn't there so I followed the hyprpanel instructions and enabled another copr then tryied into install hyprpanel and got the error rpm status -v is https://hastebin.com/share/bevapatasa.css

can you rpm-ostree uninstall all hyprland packages first?
and reboot
I already did that would you like me to do it again? Or did you mean like individually?
try removing everything in one go again, or if everything is hyperland related, i honestly would suggest just resetting
rpm-ostree reset
as far as i understand installing a new de/wm is better done using a custom image since you'll have to deal with multiple related packages, exactly to prevent what that is youre experiencingokay so just to confirm only do correct
then
no, everything that is hyprland related so
hypridle hyprland hyprlang-devel hyprlock hyprpaper hyprpolkitagent hyprshot hyprutils-devel waybar [wayland-devel wayland-protocols-devel]
the []s i assume you layered bc you need them for hyprland
Solution
okay that's why I wanted to confirm because originally when i removed I only removed hyprland since thats how I got all of them
I will do that right now
yeah so like at this point i honestly would recommend rpm-ostree reset anyway, and later you can reinstall control and lact since i dont know what else hyprland installed for you
but you can try the above steps first
is there a an easy to just reinstall all the ostree files I have? like if I just copy them down and run install all of them?
and does os-tree reset remove the coprs I have enabled
i dont think you mean ostree files, you mean layered packages, aka packages you installed using rpm-ostree install
i dont believe rpm-ostree reset removes the copr repo files under /etc/yum.repos.d/ so theoretically speaking you dont need to readd them again
okay I will do that real quickly then
and sure you can note your layered packages, your rpm-ostree status showed these
blueman cairo-devel chntpw coolercontrol file-devel gamemode go hypridle hyprland hyprlang-devel hyprlock hyprpaper hyprpolkitagent hyprshot hyprutils-devel lact libglvnd-core-devel libglvnd-devel libjpeg-turbo-devel libjxl-devel libwebp-devel liquidctl mako meson pango-devel waybar wayland-devel wayland-protocols-devel
but again im not sure which packages pulled which. after resetting you will need to reinstall coolercontrol and lact againokay I reset
im gonna install all of them again
sure, but again, i dont think installing hyprland as a layered package will be a good approach in the long run due to how rpm-ostree updates things
do you have another recommendation?
I wanted to use nix package manager but it wasn't working
nix package manager isnt supported in bazzite, the devs had more trouble with it than it's worth
Huh I even asked like the community on discourse before installing bazzite and they said it works fine but alright I believe it
notably it was causing selinux issues https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1226572714668724286/1352943095393816607
if you really want to get hyprland on your bazzite, in the long run a custom image would be better imo https://github.com/ublue-os/image-template

Yeah I tried to figure that but with had some trouble so I gave up haha
but if you got it to work using layers then its all good, but again you might experience similar package conflicts/issues
but even installing hyprpanel shows astal-io still
idk it might be better to just give up on hyprpanel
that error is usually caused with dnf commands iirc, probably one of the packages called for dnf commands or sth
was just about to
don't need it eveyrthing works
with this template you just edit build.sh im pretty sure if you want to give it another try
I'd love to but I couldn't add changes to the files github was just giving erorrs
but i've also been distrohopping through like 10 distros the past week and a half and id rather not install all my games again haha
i'd suggest /home on a separate drive but that means you will have to install everything again
yeah Im good hyprpanel isn't that worth haha
imo a separate de is the one thing that should be layered
I can't imagine hyprland running through an arch distrobox haha
could you help me with hyprpaper rq befoer I close this help thread
should just be
unless im missing something
ah yea you need to add a config for it
replace your wallpaper location
ahhhhh ty
