Line 48: rm -fv ./*.xz looks so scary. (Even though it is not)

Isn't it simple to just do *.xz?

What is the lib32-glibc dependency for? It works well for me without it.

@Kr1ss: Oops, I did forget. Thanks.

Yeah, good point, thank you !

I think you've forgotten to commit the ventoy.install though ;)

@malacology @ Atif: I've added polkit as an optional dependency, you'll need to install it to use the GUI.

@Kr1ss: I've added the post_remove() function. The log will not be created until the GUI is run once, so not sure about symlinking it.

The GUI app tries to write logs under /opt/ventoy/, and relies on polkit for privilege escalation, to do so.

Since we only have the binary, we can't patch that in the way we did with the Web UI before.

I'd see two options :

  1. (optionally) depend on polkit, and add a command to post_remove() in the install file, which deletes /opt/ventoy when the package is uninstalled
  2. (optionally) depend on polkit, and symlink the log file to somewhere in /var/log/ or /tmp/

The latter alternative seems more clean, to my mind.

/usr/share/applications/ventoy.desktop?
Works fine for me on Plasma.

@malacology i also tried running the desktop file using rofi drun mode. it doesn't do anything.

malacology commented on 2021-09-15 06:03 (UTC)

desktop files is useless and can't work on gonme.
