EbonJaeger I still have the bug with the workspace switcher on Budgie. If I click on the icon of a program in a different workspace, nothing happens. I have to click on the blank space around the icon to move to that workspace. I assume this is a Budgie bug but wanted to note it here too.
Sync Updates for Week 6, 2024
Had to do the broken Chromium UI fix: https://help.getsol.us/docs/user/troubleshooting/#broken-ui-with-chromium-applications
- Edited
mbevks There is a fix pending upstream to Budgie that hasn't been merged yet.
This sync didn't pop up for me initially. GNOME Software didn't show any system updates (yes I know G/S and Discover are unsupported and experimental in Solus at the moment. I'm using it at my own risk / discretion). But it also didn't show up when I ran sudo eopkg upgrade
. eopkg history
showed that the repository was updated, but updates just didn't appear.
I was able to fix it and here's what I did:
sudo eopkg delete-cache
sudo eopkg rdb
Finally I checked for updates in the usual fashion and they appeared again.
sudo
requirement for reboot
did not persist after 2nd reboot. We're back toreboot
now. It worked itself out.
Darktable fix for segfault cherry-picked.

No errors it started
99 packages (1,49 GiB) were processed at last Solus update and nothing to report so far.
I just note that LibreOffice made a jump in the numbering of its version: we went from the 7.6.4.1 to the 24.2.0.3.
penny-farthing we went from the 7.6.4.1 to the 24.2.0.3.
They changed their versioning system. They went from 7.6.4.x -> 24.2.x
https://www.libreoffice.org/download/release-notes/
So its not actually a big jump.
As it happens sometims, Firefox freezed my laptop, but during the update... After hard reboot I got a message along the lines of "something went wrong, please contact system administrator". I rebooted, hit e
to add the single
option at boot. Tried eopkg up
but it couldn't fetch files. Tried ping google.com
, didn't work. Tried to rollback, didn't work (no network). Then I checked the NetworkManager status:
systemctl status NetworkManager.service
It was enabled but not running, so I started it with
systemctl start NetworkManager.service
and ping was working, hurray! So I could eopkg up
and the system was fixed upon reboot. Quite a rollercoaster. Lesson learned: next times I'll check the forum for the update before running it, with all apps closed.

Heroic Games Launcher menu is missisng after update.
I can run the games from task bar but don`t see any entries, no shop no library etc.
Checked on KDE x11, wayland and budgie.
All the same
MikeK61 do you mean the UI is broken? If so this will help : https://help.getsol.us/docs/user/troubleshooting/#broken-ui-with-chromium-applications
Here's a weird one. I opened up Libreoffice calc after the update and the fonts looked wrong (liberation sans).
Installed the "Liberation" package and everything looks normal again.
I've never had to install this package before.
riffer that is weird.
I opened up Libre Calc = no Liberation available in pulldown
I opened up Libe Writer = no Liberation available in pulldown
I opened up OnlyOffice = I could set to Liberation; it was available
so I don't need to reinstall Liberation they are there. But why doesn't Libre see them? aren't Libre office and OnlyOffice looking for fonts in that same folder??
weirdness you are right
