I tried to see if nautilus was capable of rendering thumbnails of avif images. I've also written a very stupid Gtk application that only tries to load a file as a Gtk texture in Rust, just for the purpose of testing this (https://github.com/jthulhu/rki/tree/mwe). Yet, eog seems to work correctly, despite the fact that in the nix code that packages it, libavif doesn't seem to appear anywhere. libheif, which eog has, also supports avif files. See https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#sec-language-gnome for an explanation about the necessary wrapping. | 06:35:43 |
 jayhenks | Can someone help me with gnome tracker3, it seems like it is very broken. When I use tracker3-search --music --all for example, it only shows three mp3 files from my Downloads directory, even though I have many .opus ones in /home/user/Music, same thing for Videos, and more ... | 16:53:10 |
| jayhenks | I tried tons of things, removing .cache/tracker3, using tracker3-reset, reindexing, etc. etc. | 16:53:49 |
| jayhenks | In my logs I see .tracker-miner: Could not launch metadata extractor: Failed to execute child process "/nix/store/.../tracker-extract-3" (Permission denied). Maybe this is the problem. | 17:13:38 |
 jthulhu | eog uses a function gnome._gdkPixbufCacheBuider_DO_NOT_USE to do the wrapping, but I feel like there's something suggesting me not to use that function :P more seriously, the doc says that only one extra loader can be used, because otherwise Nix doesn't know how to merge properly the caches, but the eog packages seems to happily request four extra loaders. | 17:14:31 |
| jayhenks | ok so i just found an issue about it on github https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/319587 | 17:19:26 |
| jayhenks | Jan Tojnar: i saw you commented on this problem, was there a fix already upstreamed to nixpkgs? | 17:23:35 |
| 10 Jul 2024 |
| Jan Tojnar | yes, the environment variable can still only take a single cache file. I added gnome._gdkPixbufCacheBuider_DO_NOT_USE to allow merging multiple caches into one. | 05:42:08 |
| Jan Tojnar | I did not want to document it until the API stabilized but I do not think there will be any changes at this point. We should probably just drop the suffix and document it. | 05:43:58 |

Jan Tojnar: i saw you commented on this problem, was there a fix already upstreamed to nixpkgs? no upstream or downstream fix yet. You can override tracker-miners locally for now tracker-miners.overrideAttrs (old: { mesonFlags = old.mesonFlags ++ [ "-Dlandlock=disabled" ]; }) | 05:46:45 |

| jayhenks | Jan Tojnar: after adding the below code I still do not see my music files, or am I doing it wrong?
environment.systemPackages = [
(pkgs.tracker-miners.overrideAttrs (old: { mesonFlags = old.mesonFlags ++ [ "-Dlandlock=disabled" ]; }))
];

| jayhenks | Reindexed after doing this | 09:28:17 |
