I re-added the gnome-themes-extra and it works perfectly now, thanks for the lead!
19:45:08
@setunset:matrix.orgFreeVariable 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
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarthe config change might be better since it will use the version of the theme shipped with GTK itself19:47:28

Ah makes sense. Okay will look into that.

do you mean you want to track the branch rather than pinned commit?

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
@setunset:matrix.orgFreeVariableI am asking because the rev mentioned in the wiki is a bit outdated, and the latest rev does not build.19:51:03
@setunset:matrix.orgFreeVariablei guess there is 0 guarantee?19:51:22
@setunset:matrix.orgFreeVariable * i guess there is 0 guarantee, as it's no tested on hydra?19:51:32
@setunset:matrix.orgFreeVariable * I guess there is 0 guarantee, as it's no tested on hydra?19:51:38
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarthere 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 wiki19:52:26
@setunset:matrix.orgFreeVariableI see19:52:48
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarbest you can do is try to fix it and update it for the next person who wants to try19:53:02
@setunset:matrix.orgFreeVariableThe rationale behind not merging the PR that would have packaged the patch was that it deviated too much from vanilla GNOME?19:53:42
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar FreeVariable: mostly it would be a maintenance burden 19:56:11
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarwe 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 updated19:57:07

@abmantis:abcosta.com@abmantis:abcosta.comI 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? 23:27:23

@niko:conduit.rsnyanbinaryI assume with this were going set GTK renderer to Vulkan as default?15:57:22
@niko:conduit.rsnyanbinaryWell not as default for now but at least build it15:57:44
