Is anyone else having issues where Google sheets is rendering transparent font colors? It seems specific to this latest version, but I'm having trouble narrowing down exactly where this is happening in styling.

@alerque, I agree on you on this being more the second case than the first, but I guess following the chromium package should be the way (And thus, add them)?

Also, I see that the Chromium package has org.freedesktop.secrets as dependency which includes gnome-keyring, but being a freedesktop standard I'm not sure why it's not including the KDE variant (Looks to me to be that the optdepends that should be added)

@blennow Thanks for the further explanation. I get what you're talking about now.

Unfortunately I don't think this falls under a very good use for optdepends. It is kind of on the fuzzy boarder, but there is a difference between things that directly add additional functionality and things that just play nice together if they happen to both exist. I think this falls into the latter case.

@alosarjos I can confirm that when using XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE brave will use kdialog and XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME will use GTK based dialogs.

This is further confirmed by brave support with the command line flag --password-store that supports kwallet. It will also automatically choose the best fitting package for the current environment.

I still really think these should be dependecies of the plasma-browser-integration package too but the maintainer did not.

I just checked the generated .deb brave provided on GitHub, and it does not have any optional dependencies on gnome-keyring or anything related. Are we sure these Gnome and KDE packages have any effect on Brave?

PD: Probably they are as dependencies of dependencies. But there is a brave-keyring package to installed. Anyway, if you say that installing those packages have some effects, I don't see why not update them.

@alerque If you don't see any issue too I could update them once I get home

@aleque Hi, I realize now what I wrote was very cryptic, sorry about that. I'm suggesting that kdialog and kwallet be added as optional dependencies like chromium has.

I previously opened a bug at plasma-browser-integration but it got closed as not a bug and the maintainer referred to the chromium package. I think this change would help discoverability to get integrated dialogs with KDE (I don't think there are integrations for other DE).

@Iwirada Yes that is what I have done and it works. Thanks for the suggestion.

Also, great job on getting the package updated so fast!

@blennow not everyone is using Plasma. E.g. I am a dwm user. Maybe you can install those packages by hand?

alerque commented on 2021-08-31 19:48 (UTC)

@blennow Add what exactly? This package is just a repackage of a binary build released upstream, modified only enough to fit in a PKGBUILD according to Arch packaging.

blennow commented on 2021-08-31 19:35 (UTC)

Hi, is it possible to add kdialog and kwallet to integrate with Plasma better? Maybe add plasma-browser-integration also.

Anyone else having these issues:

gnome-shell[7018]: [7018:7018:0819/095339.086798:ERROR:shared_context_state.cc(73)] Skia shader compilation error

Think it's caused by the VA-API enabled flag. :/
