Subject: bug#39950: flatpack packages can't open external applications
Date: Fri, 06 Mar 2020 15:41:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87r1y535ri.fsf@cassou.me> (raw)
Hi,
when I install a flatpak package under Guix System, this package works
but can't open external applications. This is a problem for some
applications, e.g., Blender will never open your web browser.
How to reproduce:
$ guix install flatpak
$ flatpak --user remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
$ flatpak --user install flathub org.blender.Blender
$ flatpak --user run org.blender.Blender
In Blender, click on the Help menu in the menu bar and choose "User
communities". This is supposed to open a web browser but no browser will
pop up.
When in bash, I can use xdg-open to open a web page without problem.
