I haven't noticed any problems switching from a dark theme to a light theme in gedit (I use Budgie desktop with a Qogir-Dark theme), but I can understand the excitement caused by this unexpected change.

The same goes for the English imposed with no possibility of changing, another disappointing finding for which Solus is clearly not to blame.

Let's hope that's all temporary (fingers crossed!)

penny-farthing my gedit stayed white with qogir-dark so I wonder what the difference is between all the budgie users? but they fixed that right away,...
...which makes me think your language thing will go away-here's the text:
"Removed features:

• Localization (l10n): all the translations are disabled, gedit is available in
  English only because some underlying modules are not on l10n.gnome.org or
  equivalent."

I have no idea how serious this "I10n" situation is. I can't imagine they'd leave you hanging too long. hang in there.

Indeed Joey has already reverted that change with the same commit that also reverted the light/dark theme shenanigans.

Such a great group of Solus staff.

Staudey https://github.com/getsolus/packages/issues/2528 next sync I was told. @Axios is right: you guys and girls are amazing.

With the recent Solus issues I just did package check to see if things where ok they where.
But reminded me about this ongoing error must be couple hundred errors in red anything to do with paper
doesnt seem to cause issues for me.

Missing file: /usr/share/icons/Paper/scalable/actions/appointment-new-symbolic.svg

Is this proper I have no idea when it appeared but use to not be there.

Cherry-picked:
discord 0.0.54

vivaldi-stable 6.7.3329.29 for CVE-2024-4761

Harvey weird question: all I had in the update was ffmpeg-chromium-opera which, according to eopkg, I dragged in as a dep to Vivaldi-stable when I tried it. I Eventually I removedvivaldi-stable.

here's the weird question: how come the dep package was never removed with eopkg rmo wich I religiously run every couple weeks?
it depends on glibc but has no reverse deps. so safe to remove? or is solus utilizing this package somehow?

thanks

brent ffmpeg-chromium-opera is a dependency of opera-stable, as the name suggests. If you don't use that app then it's safe to remove. Not sure why it wouldn't be removed by eopkg rmo. Maybe you manually (re-)installed it at some point?

Staudey anything is possible. thanks for quick response

Just updated a few minutes ago. Glad to see I missed all the earlier problems! And I notice that http://localhost:631/ is working correctly again! Thanks for all you do!

Cherry-picked:

• vivaldi-snapshot 6.8.3358.3

This update broke Handbrake in Plasma for me. On Budgie it's fine.
If I run it via Konsole it outputs
"memory access error/access violation (memory dumped)"
Reinstallation did not solve the problem. Anyone else has this issue?

Where I can find the error log?
