Hi everyone.

I did a garuda-update this evening and when I try to launch Bottles nothing happens. I tried reinstalling, tried restoring a snapshot but the issue persists.

I tried launching Bottles in terminal with sudo, gave this error:

I’m not sure if this ‘pathvalidate’ is related to a package by the same name but I checked Octopi and I do have that package installed. Perhaps this is an issue with Bottles itself, devs probably changed something or I messed something up somewhere.

Thanks

sudo bottles

don’t randomly launch applications with sudo. This is not windows. On linux, doing that can seriously mess up all kinds of permissions - maybe even rendering your system unbootable. Be careful with that.

The bottles AUR package is not officially supported. You should report issues to the package maintainers instead. The intended way of installing bottles is using flatpak, which will definitely yield better results, at the cost of being, well, flatpak.

I think I’ll wait for the fix. Thank you for the assistance.

Honestly specifically for bottles even though its highly not recommended for garuda. To use the flatpak of it. Since the dev themselves doesn’t really like anything other then it since of how its packaged an how they want to support it. Though if you do that make sure to use something like flatseal to let it have access to your home dir. I wouldn’t say to do this for really any other package other then bottles. Again flatpaks aren’t recommended.
