I don't know if this is pocillo-related or eopkg-related but since the update i can't run eopkg without an error:

I haven't changed anything to do with my theme, i don't even use pocillo.
EDIT: Looking at it on the web, it looks like ~~it got updated to the version on unstable/polaris. Just gotta roll it back on my end, but it's weird that it happened at all.~~ several packages got updated past what is on Shannon. Did i accidentally enable the wrong repo somehow?

Run sudo eopkg dc to delete the cache and then try again. This should probably be added to the list of known issues as it now seems to happen quite frequently.

Polaris is the new standard repository for updated systems so that's normal. Unstable is different.

Staudey That took care of it, thanks

Any update on the Firefox crash problem that happens with autoscrolling?

I don't think so. You can follow this Budgie issue ticket for updates: https://github.com/BuddiesOfBudgie/budgie-desktop/issues/781

Hello

"eopkg upgrade" this time is something strange.
I did it after "eopkg dc".
Its output indicates system error as below.

after this week's sync, I received the message "Snap has partial confinement"

What does this mean?
I don't use Snap at all.

edit : I read the attached link and understood it better now, its a general announcement for snap users and upcoming deprecation.

snowee after this week's sync, I received the message "Snap has partial confinement"

I saw it too on one of my Budgie system. I thought I got rid of snaps long time ago. I uninstalled snapd, problem solved!

Sebastian

Tranquility I saw the same being on unstable when there was also a fonts hickup related to urw-core35-fonts. Not only looked my fonts different, but I also had the issue that in gnome-terminal, by background was suddenly white instead of black and the text color black instead of white. I just changed that back in gnome-terminal settings. but something is going on here.

Sebastian

Were you using the pocillo-dark theme?
If so, following @EbonJaeger 's advice, I created an issue.

Solarmass

penny-farthing In this case, you can submit your request using the link provided by @EbonJaeger above.

Maybe I will. I don't use this theme currently. I reported about it in other channel..

snowee

Solarmass
so its perfectly all right to uninstall snapd?
will it remove dependencies that are required by other software?

I totally don't use snapd at all.

If this is the only way to remove the "snapd has partial confinement" automated message that I see each time I boot up, then I may consider uninstalling snapd. If there are other ways to suppress this message upon bootup, that will be even better.

Stumbled-Upon

TLDR: had an isssue, solved it by the help in this thread.

I had (on XFCE stable) a similar issue to what which was mentioned in this thread, some error about libgcrypt, but similar to what VTMarik reported,

but the "eopkg dc" suggested solution by Staudey seemed to solve my issue as well and system was updated successfully after.

After a restart, it seems fine still. Thank you Staudey and VTMarik 🙂

P.S. I didn't see this step/suggestion in the troubleshooting page hence went to this forum, maybe you want to consider adding such step, if you like? I tried Staudey's solution (which had solved the issue) after already trying the troubleshooting on the help page to no avail, adding for completeness.

Axios

Updated 6 month behind Budgie
Everything appears Ok.
Not going do that again..lol

No problems with other updates

Axios

snowee its safe to remove should only effect snapd

Harvey

You can remove snapd if you do not use snap packages (It is not installed by default on newer installs any more). Alternatively you can just disable the warning:
sudo snap hide-confinement-warning

HuggleBerry

Harvey
Shouldn't it then be removed? I always thought if I stay close to the default settings (here: no snap packages installed) then I will also stay close to fresh installs. Just being curious, no negativity implied

Lonsfor

is retroarch going to be updated? 1.22.2 came out in november and the repo is on 1.20.0
