 K900 | That's fine, those are non-fatal warnings | 18:20:04 |
| K900 | Anyway, try getting rid of all the xdg.mime stuff in home-manager and then restarting your sessio | 18:20:20 |

 jlc | I'll comment it all out and brb | 18:20:47 |
| jlc | Mkay - Looks like my editor can still open things from my app launcher, but mt filechooser still doesn't have this persistence. | 18:26:10 |
| jlc | in the case of dolphin, opening up "properties" on a file and adding something to the list of programs to use to open it is immediately just not written; unless of course I'm doing something very dumb, I find this surprising, | 18:27:15 |

| jlc | (I guess I am -typing the program name- instead of navigating to the nix store where the binary is so it's 1000% possible I'm just missing that step) | 18:28:58 |
| K900 | Hm, maybe also try nuking ~/local/.share/applications/mimeinfo.cache and ~/local/.share/mime | 18:31:27 |
| jlc | I also wonder if this is an 'environment variables' (not 100% clear on what that means) w/ my WM? Re: the setup instructions penultimate paragraph | 18:32:00 |
| jlc | Oh looks like there was a ton of old shit there | 18:33:34 |
| jlc | I'll try a session restart again | 18:34:43 |
| jlc | Mkay no cigar as the kids say | 18:37:31 |
| K900 | When you add a file association, does it get reflected in the files in ~/.local/share/mime? | 18:38:50 |
| jlc | Doesn't | 18:40:47 |
| jlc | to make sure I'm following you - I did yeet the whole /mine directory, and I shoudl be expecting it to be recreated w/ new content when I do this GUI process, yeh? | 18:41:36 |

with nix-portable, I run to this error constantly? It only works after removing that SQLite db and rerunning the command. It works for that and after that, it brakes again.
Warning: error: SQLite database '/home/sofie.halenius/.cache/nix/eval-cache-v5/1949a4522cacf242ae0214bb74551b06a8e090aa1bd5dea2d29d82433hade202.sqlite" is busy
It's just contention on that specific DB, nothing specific you can do, it's a warning not a fatal error | 18:44:32 |
 ghpzin | It is written to `~/.config/mimeapps.list` by default afaik. | 18:44:53 |
| ghpzin | It is written to ~/.config/mimeapps.list by default afaik. | 18:45:11 |
| jlc | Ah true - when I look in there I've got:
text/plain=/home/jlc/.local/share/applications/codium-14.desktop;
[Default Applications]
text/plain=/home/jlc/.local/share/applications/codium-14.desktop;
x-scheme-handler/discord=vesktop.desktop
| 18:46:41 |
| jlc | Okay - it looks like it gets correctly added to mimeapps.list (I checked by trying to add a .blend file, but that the filechooser can't then read this list even though it wrote to it. | 18:48:34 |

| jlc | Hmm. reading this | 18:53:37 |
| jlc | So much hassle for a file browser. Well, the KService Package doesn't seem to have been it. | 19:02:35 |
| jlc | Mkay, I have found a solution:
thunar = {
enable = true;
plugins = with pkgs.xfce; [
thunar-volman
thunar-archive-plugin
];```
};

standalone alongside niri, a wayland WM Is this the xdg menu issue again? I.e. does it work if you add kdePackages.plasma-workspace to your packages? | 20:26:07 |

It's just contention on that specific DB, nothing specific you can do, it's a warning not a fatal error Well it kind of is an error if it just locks up afterwards (due to not getting the lock), which actually does happen here if I understood the question correctly? | 20:29:15 |
