@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuPlease report that as a bug00:39:33
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]same happens with PrismLauncher due to it storing full paths to java in its config05:11:59
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]not that big of a deal though, just pick the right java version again and move on05:12:19
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolThere was a bug like this in Picard. It would store the absolute path to some helper program in its config. They may have had to patch the source to fix it for NixOS.05:18:03
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolOr upstream changed to not store an absolute path. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/96199#issuecomment-170948767305:20:31
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]with prismlauncher it's at least intentional (ish), given the java version depends on what instance/version of miencraft youre launching05:22:21
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolI don't suppose it can be passed via an environment variable?05:49:29
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]no, because you alway have at least 3 java versions on PATH when launching it05:57:34
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its](which it lists in a GUI for you to pick from if the configured one went missing)05:58:24

In reply to @atemu12:matrix.org
Uh, it shouldn't?
I think it's an unavoidable bug, right? But yeah, when you install a game, it points to the specific versions of all the dependencies in your current path. Then on GC those paths no longer exists. Do lutris works, but none of your games does
09:58:50
@eyjhb:eyjhb.dkeyJhbThis was one of the main reasons one of my friends switched back to arch :(09:59:15
@k900:0upti.meK900I think the solution to that is to let Lutris manage its own Proton09:59:44
@eyjhb:eyjhb.dkeyJhbThat can currently be done, or does it require upstream changes?10:01:15
@eyjhb:eyjhb.dkeyJhbWrong word10:01:22
@eyjhb:eyjhb.dkeyJhbDoes it require changes in how we package it?10:01:33
@k900:0upti.meK900You can just choose Proton in the launch options for the game10:02:33
@k900:0upti.meK900And it'll download and install it10:02:38
@k900:0upti.meK900And it'll run in the Lutris fhsenv10:02:44
@eyjhb:eyjhb.dkeyJhb Might do that if I need it again. My collection of games on Steam that i need to play have grown a lot. 10:12:24
@eyjhb:eyjhb.dkeyJhbAnd the Christmas tree took up enough space, that i couldn't play VR games :(10:12:50

@tuxiqae:matrix.orgtuxiqaeNoticed that Steam sometimes (always?) stops receiving mouse events after I quit a game (Sway) Anyone else experiencing the same issue?18:44:54
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuThe game window might still be lingering18:49:30
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuIs it only this game or all of them?18:49:37

CS2 and RDR2, didn't notice others though

Unlikely
18:56:59
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolI'm not very experienced with the Java ecosystem, but that seems unusual.19:18:00
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuIt launches multiple versions of Minecraft that depend on different Java versions19:18:50
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuIt doesn't have them in PATH though IIRC19:19:30
