@k900:0upti.meK900 @aidalgol do you want to close https://github.com/Open-Wine-Components/umu-launcher/issues/514 06:25:41
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolI was going to say, "doesn't it need to be fixed there, as well," but I've just figured out that the flake in the umu repo is just an override for the derivation that lives in nixpkgs. 😵‍💫09:14:11
@k900:0upti.meK900Wait how did our umu ever work09:27:09
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolMaybe it just took this long for enough people to actually try running EGS games with umu via heroic.09:43:02
@k900:0upti.meK900I'm trying to uncurse it09:48:48
@k900:0upti.meK900It was running in a completely empty fhsenv09:48:53
@k900:0upti.meK900With none of the shit that the Steam Runtime actually needs09:49:01
@k900:0upti.meK900 @aidalgol sorry for using your PR as a staging ground 09:51:24
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgoloh! yeah... how the hell has it been working?09:57:15
@k900:0upti.meK900I wish I knew09:58:00
@k900:0upti.meK900Very possibly just off of ambient libraries09:58:11
@k900:0upti.meK900And ancient Steam Runtime shit09:58:16
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolunwrapped heroic is unable to run native games, with or without the "Use Steam Runtime" option ticked.10:12:02
@k900:0upti.meK900If it uses the Steam runtime directly, it needs to be in the fhsenv :(10:13:53
@k900:0upti.meK900But we can put it into a Steam shaped fhsenv10:14:14
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolWhat does that look like?10:14:32
@k900:0upti.meK900I'm trying to get it to work for UMU right now10:14:54
@k900:0upti.meK900 But ideally we'd just have steam.makeEnv that does the usual buildFHSEnv stuff but adds all the magic Steam needs 10:15:27
@k900:0upti.meK900 @aidalgol https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/428815 10:33:41
@k900:0upti.meK900OK so this worksish10:33:44
@k900:0upti.meK900At least it works for heroic running umu10:33:53
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolHow is umu still ending up in the heroic env? I'm not seeing it.10:38:30
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgol Also, totally irrelevant, but why does your nixpkgs fork have a branch named just i? 10:39:04
@k900:0upti.meK900It's not but I just fixed that10:39:06
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolI'll have to test tomorrow. I'm drifting off now, and have an early start tomorrow.10:41:01
@k900:0upti.meK900 It's not named LATIN SMALL LETTER I 10:41:20
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolOh, so it isn't.10:42:00
@k900:0upti.meK900It's some sort of special character10:42:06
@k900:0upti.meK900I was testing something stupid10:42:11
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolDid you mean to close the PR?10:42:49
