When i start it by command line, i get also a different message to @ueli, but it’s the same like @teo’s:
$ manjaro-hello

Oh no. I was following a tutorial using Manjaro Hello to install extended input method support, and suddenly found Manjaro Hello failed to launch. I thought I accidentally broke my system
In the gitlab report it is stated “You just need to remove the conflicting line db.enable_appstream(), it’s no more needed.” Could somebody kindly explain how I should go about removing the conflicting line.
Second that - from what I can see in the diff terminal output, it seems to be in 2 files? (maybe more?)
I don’t have coding knowledge, but I could find the file, open it as root, find the line, and edit/delete it. but I need to be sure what file/s to open and edit. So if someone could kindly point us nobs to the file/s to be edited, that would be great. Thanks
In case this helps anyone, I have noticed that manjaro-hello only fails to launch (without any error message, from the KDE application menu) for the first user to login after the computer boots. If I logout and login as another user, manjaro-hello launches and works fine. This behavior is the same on multiple computers after the last stable update (8/11). Manjaro-hello will never launch for me when I’m logged in as the first user to login after the computer boots, even if I have logged out and logged back in; but it will launch for users who are not the first to login after the computer boots.
With the update to manjaro-hello 0.7.0-7, manjaro-application-utility is now optional and can be removed for now until it’s able to be fixed. Manjaro Hello will work otherwise without it.
I have been offered and applied the upgrade to 0.7.0-7 last night, but ‘manjaro-hello’ still does not work? are you suggesting that i need to uninstall ‘manjaro-application-utility’ for it to work? and re-install it later once it is fixed? will removing ‘manjaro-application-utility’ break something else?
It was a list with checkboxes … which then went and installed the checked things.
Maybe a slightly nice touch for a few people … but a bit silly to ‘need’ in just about any context.
For a newbie, it was definitively a nice start (pretty much like the “Software mode” in pamac). A few Apps sorted by categories, for someone coming from windows who does not know the linux apps, was nice. We just had a topic how Sumatra PDF is named in linux (Evince/Okular ).
I’m not sure I would consider that thread/op as a good litmus test …
Besides … I begrudgingly mentioned its ‘niceness for a few’ … the point was that its not a necessity by any stretch of the imagination.
The information provided (ex: its a linux browser that looks like this) in better formats with more verbosity is only a web search away.
(woe befall me who holds the belief that indeed people can manage to learn new information and make their own decisions … if only they tried)
Or … to take your argument to its logical conclusion …
We see a good number of posts by random new people who ask ‘why does this command I saw on this youtube video not work?’
sudo apt-get install chrome-browser
So I guess the only rational response is … we must introduce apt-get into manjaro!
