Arch Linux User Repository

I can confirm pertaining to some comments from 2019, I'm also suffering from the weird glitch where arronax searches for .ui files from /share and not /usr/share. I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to be there, and I don't think it's a good idea to make a symlink as another commenter suggested, to say the least.

Is it possible this is a PKGBUILD issue, or should I report it to the upstream Launchpad?

yes i thinks so, or at least it's "a feature": arronax, right now, don't respect theme settings other than gnome ones.
from AUR perspective, we cannot do much about that.

hi max.bra, on sway/wayland arronax doesn't respond to theme settings of lxappearance. A work around is to set gtk themes and gtk icon themes for arronax in sway config (/home/user/.config/sway/config) manually adding:

exec always {
    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme "Breeze-Dark"
    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme "Papirus-Dark" 
}

After that, all icons are shown in arronax on sway/wayland. Don't know if this is a bug?

hi mireiner, despite this is an gnome oriented project you should file a bug upstream.

Sway/Wayland > arronax 0.8-2 > all icons are missing (below menu bar)
Gnome 41/Wayland > arronax 0.8-2 > all icons are shown

@yochananmarqos done, thanks a lot for reporting.

Could you update the dependency to python-pyxdg? It doesn't work with the python-xdg AUR package.

@yochananmarqos thanks for the heads up. this package deserves more love.

@max.bra: python-setuptools is only required to build, it's not a runtime dependency.

This now requires libwnck3:
