 Jan Tojnar | * hpfr: we are adding new stuff to top-level since there is not much of a point to namespace, eventually, we are going to move all/most stuff to top-level but it is not a priority so it might take a while | 11:41:17 |
 hpfr | thank you! makes sense | 17:06:49 |

 FreeVariable | Hello, using the unstable channel and recently rebuilt. I am no longer able to specify "Adwaita dark" in GNOME Tweaks > Appearance for legacy applications. Any clue? | 19:06:46 |
| Jan Tojnar | FreeVariable: probably https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/278941 | 19:31:38 |

FreeVariable: probably https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/278941 Thanks for your reply. This means I need to re-add gnome-themes-extra? | 19:35:55 |
| Jan Tojnar | yes. Or change it to Adwaita and enable the dark theme in GTK config (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GTK#Dark_theme_variant) | 19:43:35 |

FreeVariable: Or change it to Adwaita and enable the dark theme in GTK config (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GTK#Dark_theme_variant) I re-added the gnome-themes-extra and it works perfectly now, thanks for the lead! | 19:45:08 |
| FreeVariable | As I am lucky enough to have you online, is there a reliable method to get the latest rev mentioned here that builds on NixOS unstable? | 19:47:13 |
| Jan Tojnar | the config change might be better since it will use the version of the theme shipped with GTK itself | 19:47:28 |

| Jan Tojnar | gnome-themes-extra is dead and might have compatibility issues | 19:47:47 |

As I am lucky enough to have you online, is there a reliable method to get the latest rev mentioned here that builds on NixOS unstable? do you mean you want to track the branch rather than pinned commit? | 19:49:11 |
| FreeVariable | In reply to @jtojnar:matrix.org
gnome-themes-extra is dead and might have compatibility issues I have an idea how to track the HEAD, my question was whether there is any guarantee I could get before trying to build HEAD that it indeed builds | 19:50:38 |
| FreeVariable | I am asking because the rev mentioned in the wiki is a bit outdated, and the latest rev does not build. | 19:51:03 |
| FreeVariable | i guess there is 0 guarantee? | 19:51:22 |
| FreeVariable | * i guess there is 0 guarantee, as it's no tested on hydra? | 19:51:32 |
| FreeVariable | * I guess there is 0 guarantee, as it's no tested on hydra? | 19:51:38 |
| Jan Tojnar | there are not any guarantees, someone asked about it here a few weeks ago, I pointed them out to the issue, and then they put it on the wiki | 19:52:26 |
| FreeVariable | I see | 19:52:48 |
| Jan Tojnar | best you can do is try to fix it and update it for the next person who wants to try | 19:53:02 |
| FreeVariable | The rationale behind not merging the PR that would have packaged the patch was that it deviated too much from vanilla GNOME? | 19:53:42 |
| Jan Tojnar | FreeVariable: mostly it would be a maintenance burden | 19:56:11 |
| Jan Tojnar | we would need to keep the patch applying and building, and every time a new version of mutter is released we would have to remove it or wait for it to be updated | 19:57:07 |

| @abmantis:abcosta.com | I had to set environment.sessionVariables.XDG_DATA_DIRS to include pkgs.gsettings-desktop-schemas path in order to gsettings to work in bash. but other apps, like the dconf-editor had no issue accessing the schema without me setting that. Anyone knows how did it work for some apps but not others?

| nyanbinary | I assume with this were going set GTK renderer to Vulkan as default? | 15:57:22 |
