For the repo picker, why are the lines blue, but not links? Can we make the whole area a clickable link like the ones on Applications tab? Can we make the icon the same size the ones from Applications tab?
Correct. I did not touch it yet
Changelog:
Welcome screen: Fixed link appearance
Features tab: Software Repository Selector, Update Configuration, Bug Report Tool. Click on the images open the app.
System Update both from om-welcome and from Application menu is now dnf5 ready. Credits to @P_J
Original Look&Feel reason, nothing else
Probably, but not top priority.
Any help?
@rugyada hey, I just updated and got om-welcome-2.9.3-1. Thanks for all the work! While I was in there, though, I poked around and happened to click on the repo picker… and it says:
even though I’m on ROME:

In the Repo Picker, I checked if the Extra, Restricted, and Non-Free were enabled if I happened to be on my correct Update Channel, but when I went to ROME, it gave the typical warning:

I feel like there is an error somewhere. So I ran dnf distro-sync, and it’s showing right:

@P_J I don’t think you should point the Update Channel to Release. It should point to ROME.
I agree, @WilsonPhillips. The issue is that the repo picker is saying that I am on Release, when I am on Rome. Also that it says I only have Main enabled, when I have all three other repos enabled, in reality, as seen in the terminal output.
That’s great. Have you distro-synced? I don’t know that the OM-Welcome update changed the repo-picker, but I had an update for om-welcome-2.9.3-1, which came out in the last 2 hours.
@WilsonPhillips I have not changed anything. I’m saying that the repo-picker is starting by stating it is on a different channel.
Since I added the Testing repo, it only had to be done once, I just to the regular distro-sync.
I get that it is starting with release in the box, but if you change it to rolling, does it show the repos checked?
I did try that. It gave the typical warning:
One of the devs will look at it. We did our part.
To reiterate. I have not changed anything. I changed no update channel. I started on ROME and have never changed any update channel to be on any other channel. After distro-syncing this evening and getting the latest version of om-welcome (2.9.3-1) I started and browsed through the welcome screen just to see as I usually just try things out. That is when I saw in the repo-picker that it said I was in a different update channel. But as shown in the terminal output, I am not in any other channel called release or elsewise.
dnf repolist
Please.
I realize, perhaps, librewolf is a problem? I can remove it.
EDIT: I removed it to check if that had, indeed, created a problem. After removal, and running repolist again, it showing that there were no other than the standard repositories, I started om-welcome, went to repo-picker, and it still showed the incorrect update channel.
Okay. I restored symlinking of dnf to dnf-3 (instead of dnf5) in /usr/bin. Then went back to the repo-picker. It now showed correctly.
So, dnf5 is not showing the information that repo-picker understands to display the correct information. I apologize for calling an error when it was my own.
It’s probably a configuration bug. If you are getting the correct channels with dnf repolist
then dnf
knows what to do.
Exactly, I hear that. I was afraid that, perhaps, it might be confusing for a new user. I was comfortable doing all my work in the terminal.
Thank you so much @zeroability and @WilsonPhillips for your help.
Much appreciated. I know @rugyada appreciates it.
