 linsui | I guess they work in the same way. Those programs don't know about the dark variant. They can only use the theme. | 18:24:51 |
| linsui | So they need a dark theme, which is dark by default. | 18:25:23 |
 @normalcea:matrix.org | They really just need to be ported to wayland and/or stop relying on gtk hacks. | 20:35:46 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | tauri being rendered with webkitgtk explains a lot actually. | 20:36:24 |

| @normalcea:matrix.org | Another informal polling: Is there anyone here that uses the GNOME Flashback session? | 02:25:54 |
 hexa | is there any reboot required indicator for gnome that integrates with nixos? | 13:45:49 |
| hexa | I kinda need to nudge family members to reboot once in a while | 13:46:01 |
 emily | how do you deploy updates to your family? 🤔 | 16:18:10 |
 André Lima | What is GNOME flashback? | 16:24:06 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeFlashback | 18:36:38 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | No there sadly isn't, Debian/Ubuntu handle this by having certain packages create a reboot file in /var/run but there's no unified interface, especially since nixos doesn't install gnome-software by default which has the reboot indicator design. | 18:44:57 |
| hexa | yeah, /run/reboot-required | 18:45:10 |

| hexa | autoupgrade boot | 18:45:28 |
| hexa | with slightly more attention to my mother than the extended family up until now | 18:45:58 |
| hexa | she was on stable nixos releases, but I forgot to lift her up from 24.11 | 18:46:08 |
| hexa | so now they're all running nixos unstable | 18:46:17 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | Maybe it would be helpful if the system.autoUpgrade module had a post-update hook option, then you can hook that into a notification or what not. | 18:50:36 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | It's x11 wm that uses gnome components but with metacity (the compositor before mutter), I just don't know if it's worth keeping under the gnome module since GNOME 50 will completely remove the x11 codepath | 18:54:35 |

Maybe it would be helpful if the system.autoUpgrade module had a post-update hook option, then you can hook that into a notification or what not. You can just trigger a systemd one-shot service | 23:29:58 |

 Arian | I noticed that when I installed ghostty in users.users.arian.packages , I did get an entry for it in the Apps page, but the icon was missing. I had to log out and log in to get the icon. Is it expected behaviour that GNOME doesn't loads icons when initially installing a package? | 15:43:08 |
