Installed from guix on fedora 33, nyxt display blank buffer instead of opening urls

Installed from guix on fedora 33, nyxt display blank buffer instead of opening urls

[Roland Everaert via]

Hello,

I already opened an issue with the Nyxt project and they think the problem is related to a conflict between guix and fedora.

The issue in the Nyxt project is: https://github.com/atlas-engineer/nyxt/issues/1132

As the initial post and discussion is already rather long it seems better, to me to reference the issue instead of posting my description again.

Regards,

Roland Everaert

Could you try:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix environment --preserve='^DISPLAY$' --container --network \
  --expose=/etc/machine-id \
  --expose=/etc/ssl/certs/ \
  --share=$HOME/.local/share/nyxt/=$HOME/.local/share/nyxt/ \
  --ad-hoc nyxt nss-certs dbus --  nyxt
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

?  From <https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/guix.html#Invoking-guix-environment>.

The ’--container’ part removes any potential conflicts between Guix and
Fedora.

Then,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix environment --pure \
  --ad-hoc nyxt nss-certs dbus --  nyxt
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

?

Thanks,
simon

Hello,

Unfortunately, I still face the same problem. The only notable difference, is the fact that nyxt don't trust the certificate from duckduckgo. But, once I add it with the function add-domain-to-certificate-exceptions, the problem with webkitgtk arise.

Do you mean using the command with '--container'?

Maybe 1. you have a problem of config on your side with the
certificates; from where do they come from?  What does ot happens for
other website than duckduckgo?  Then 2. the
'add-domain-to-certicate-exceptions' looks like a bug on the Nyxt
side.


Hope that helps,
simon

add-domain-to-certificate-exceptions is the Nyxt equivalent of Firefox
"Add exception" or something like that: it ignores bad certificates for
the HTTPS connection to a given host.

This is the expected behaviour I believe.
