You must use a desktop compatible with an XDG backend that supports the "App Chooser Portal": https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/XDG_Desktop_Portal#List_of_backends_and_interfaces

These have been listed as optional dependencies. You must install the XDG backend to suit your DE.

Updated to 0.13.4 and fixed INSTALL_TRYEXEC issue with the desktop icon.

Encountered the same issue as @saghm.

From what I can tell this may have always been the case and might be why some people are having issues logging into the app.

Once I commented out the TryExec line the login button worked without issue.

The line TryExec=${INSTALL_TRYEXEC} in the desktop file doesn't seem to be edited in the PKGBUILD, so it exists in the file that ends up installed on the system. Using Plasma 6, this seems to cause the application not to get properly added to menus and launchers, but deleting that line seems to have fixed it. I'm guessing that line might be a leftover from a previous iteration of the PKGBUILD?

Apologies for marking this as out of date; I realize now that 0.12.0 doesn't actually have any binaries available for download. I don't see a way for me to manually retract having marked it that way, so I guess the only way for that to happen is for the maintainer to do it.

The app needs xdg-desktop-portal-gtk to function properly. A DE-specific desktop portal is not going to do it (in Hyprland's case at least). See https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/NexusMods.App/issues/3236#issuecomment-2901064385

@Abzie Any reason to specify all these XDG Desktop Portal implementations individually as optional dependencies over just using xdg-desktop-portal-impl as a required dependency?

App is missing dependencies. Neither "Log in" nor "Give Feedback" buttons work out of the box, spitting exceptions that end with:

No such interface “org.freedesktop.portal.OpenURI”

Solved by installing the implementation of missing xdg-desktop-portal interface and setting it up for the environment, e.g.

yay -S --asdeps xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
systemctl --user import-environment XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP # this env var must exist
systemctl --user show-environment # make sure it's set correctly, e.g. to "i3"
systemctl --user restart xdg-desktop-porta xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
  • a file that says which portal i3 should use:
# ~/.config/xdg-desktop-portal/i3-portals.conf
[preferred]
default=gtk;
