 jasi 🏳️⚧️ | * I'm repackaging duckstation, yeah no wonder no linux distribution could package it | 02:44:47 |
| jasi 🏳️⚧️ | Oh lol the first popup is a ninja prompt that makes you close the window and opens the duckstation website | 02:47:04 |
| jasi 🏳️⚧️ | I love when games try to get you to do stuff by making the UI hostile /s | 02:47:49 |

| jasi 🏳️⚧️ | Culmination of duckstation repackaging: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/433242
^If anyone wishes to have a duckstation derivation that is up-to-date with upstream development. I'm not sure if this should be merged, but I thought it would be productive to submit anyways.

 srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | What could be causing Steam to output:
bin_steam.sh[17074]: Setting up Steam content in /home/srestegosaurio/.local/share/Steam
bin_steam.sh[17074]: Error: Couldn't set up Steam data - please contact technical support
| 17:18:48 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | I tried deleting both .steam and .local/share/Steam. I have >100GB of free space and also tried steam --reset. | 17:19:53 |
 K900 | Weird filesystem setup? | 17:20:07 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | Probably it has to do with the new impermanence v2 thing. But I cannot torture steam to output a single bit more of info. | 17:20:53 |
| K900 | It's a shell script | 17:21:07 |
| K900 | You can run it with bash -x | 17:21:10 |
| K900 | And see what it actually dies on | 17:21:17 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | I think it is dying on a loooong bwrap invocation. | 17:23:54 |
| K900 | You want to run the thing inside the bwrap | 17:24:44 |
| K900 | As in, use steam-run first to enter the container | 17:24:53 |
| K900 | And then bash -x the actual script | 17:25:00 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | Okey. | 17:25:09 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | You mean doing steam-run bash -x steam? | 17:26:25 |
| K900 | No | 17:27:08 |
| K900 | You need to find the actual script that's running in the Steam container | 17:27:33 |
| K900 | It is in bubblewrap's arguments | 17:27:57 |
| K900 | As --symlink <something> /init | 17:28:07 |
| K900 | Oh actually | 17:28:23 |
