GNOME 41 is ~~starting to reach~~ in Arch

I have Gnome 41.x since two or three days - I’m a testing addict - and all is working well. It was worth the wait, even if it was long in the end.

Dash-to-Panel got just updated to version 45 for Gnome 41.

It can be installed the OFFICIAL :roll_eyes: way from:

https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1160/dash-to-panel/

It just kindly replaced my git version that I had un-orthodoxically installed before without breaking NADA. On Arch, BTW not LFS! That one I use only from TTY:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Just updated my rig to gnome 41! It seems way faster. Or perhaps it’s just psychological effect of updating my system

I just had to see if it was actually here so i installed it in VM so it won’t infect my kde!

Flamshot on Xorg seems to be working as it is supposed to do.
Perhaps something to do with xorg-xwayland that got updated too lately?

[2021-11-05T08:57:14+0100] [ALPM] upgraded xorg-xwayland (21.1.2-1 -> 21.1.2.901-1)

I suspect it’s down to tightening of permissions under Wayland, e.g. things like screensharing need to go through a particular dbus API now.

Has flameshot ever worked under wayland?

It used to, I used it with GNOME 40.5.

It broke with the [gnome-staging] packages in the OP, hence I suspect Mutter.

Oh sure, your girl friends (wink wink) computer. Lol. I will wait a couple weeks to see what the community finds before updating my daily driver.

I’m using Firejail sandbox applications so this sometimes breaks integrations.

I use flameshot daily as i write documentation. I’ve been on Wayland for maybe 1.5 years and flameshot had some weird breaks in the tool bar after launching. I believe it got fixed earlier this year.

More here in a new bug.

I’m used to flameshot breaking, I had issues with it on x11 too this year. When it happened I downgraded it to the latest working version and used that version til the new one was fixed.

That is strange, I use flameshot almost every day on X11 and I never had any breakage this year. Was this on EndeavourOS?

That was not on EOS, but Manjaro.

I wonder if that was Manjaro specific or if I just didn’t update during the time it was an issue.

aur with -Qua?
