I can set it to detect the default and use the language file, if one has been created, like French. I have the detection disabled for now during testing phase but seeing that French works I will enable it before the next release after 0.5.x.

Lots Lots better on menu structure A+

used to say INSTALLED at the top but the color-coding is the visual cue now so that will work. have not visited changelogs or every post so just observation. just got home. maybe I'm hallucinating 🙂

Original-Syn

brent The main reason for that change is that top row will now display all the items selected in multi-select. That way you make sure that you have everything selected before going to install/uninstall. With the enhanced visual on the install state in the list, it was a trade-off to make things all have a place.

With my hours and lack of sleep I'm just happy I detected it without reading a thing about it 😪 ! It's an OK tradeoff. Thanks for getting back to me. Glad to see this home-grown tool evolve and have a following. build it and they will come i said early...but you already knew that. Carry on!

Original-Syn

brent I got you covered. I found a way to cleanly bring the status back that should work well. I love feedback. Makes me have to think 😉

brent

Original-Syn it's small potatoes but thank you for doing thinking 🙂

I made a video (Fr) to talk about Solus 4.8 and the main changes we've had throughout 4.7.
I also talk about Solseek :-)
The video will be available on Friday at 3:00 PM GMT+1.

Julien68 That is very cool.

I just want to say Thank you for making this Little app
Havent used it much so far but got P.O. earlier because it was so Easy to find stuff with S.C.
not the main Programs but the other stuff.
Then budgie crashed so I just shut laptop off...lol and cooled down.
Came back did a pkg search and found it with Solseek So my hats off to you.
I use to reference stuff easy with S.C. when they needed to add a package or something but I
see now its not going be as simple.(Not knocking your program)
So I may scale back my helping people not going spend alot time looking for stuff if I dont already know it

(Grumble sorry got to rambling)

Original-Syn

Axios Appreciate the feedback.

Just curious when you say reference, what types of things are you looking for? Maybe it is something I can look into with Solseek down the road. I know I cannot repicate everything SC did as I am doing this in shell at this time, but who knows down the road.

Original-Syn I have a question
Had some budgie Oops screen crashes and each time had your prog open
and it would not list anything in ( flatpak all) just sit their blinking
My question is cache memory or to disk because I think there was some kind of cant write to something
dont remb what it said and then it went to the Oops crash confused at what was happening But I went in ran my bleachbit setup havent had any crashes since

Until it happens again not saying your program did anything was just running it through my head if it happens again.
The first oops crash my clock app was gone from dock added it back but second crash its still there.

But been testing and everything is fine now.

Original-Syn

Axios Interesting. Yeah just let me know. Basically everything is a shell script using eopkg and flatpak and I use a cache file, so no memory cache or anything to keep it simple. Thanks for letting me know.

Axios

Original-Syn Prob something else was going on but
had to ask to clear my mind abit.
Thanks for reply.

Axios

Original-Syn 5.5 is more responsive for me.
Even loading.

Small update to Solseek with Solus sync today.

Package installation status in the Info pane.
Added Flatpak Check/Repair and Repo Settings to bring Flatpak tools closer to parity with eopkg.
A few minor formatting bugs around checking for updates and its list.

Wanted to add Flatpak history as well, but there is a small permissions issue with the Flatpak setup on Solus that makes it require sudo. That is being looked into by the team.

nice 🙂

elfprince Solseek cache generation on my Solus Budgie also takes about 5 seconds.

about the same for me. not 10 but more like 4 if I had guess

Tried the Solseek for a first time. KDE Plasma, updated and fresh booted.

Solseek greeted me with a very long caching process.
Along the way reported about flatpak connection timeout (not using flatpacks on this machine anyway)
On the second run missed the package descriptions and reported that disk is full.
Gobbled up all the RAM.
Dolphin started to spam random empty variations of dolphin.* in /tmp with a hasty one second delay. Also disables the show hidden files flag. Tons of files, to the point of draining the RAM empty.
Uninstalled Solseek and rebooted.
But, it seems something changed in Plasma configuration. Dolphin kept spamming temporary files even after reboots. Eventually it pushed the very descriptive notification "Process finished" and stopped the spam.

Okay... Sorry for the impossibility of the further adventures on my side but I need this PC healthy and working urgent. Posted it because I'm curious about what is actually happened - if anyone have any idea.

When starting Solseek and after updating system, everytime cache will be generated.
This takes around 15 seconds. Very long in my opinion.
Ist this normal?

Original-Syn

AlphaElwedritsch that seems too long. Takes less than 5 on my test systems. I will look into it.

Axios

I ran the tools and everything except eopkg and flatpk updates and had no issues
everything worked.
Will try the other later.
Dunno if cleaning caches had any effect when I was having problems the other day.
(just info) Budgie

Note: did have one broken package (libinput)
