@Eightie7 Not an issue on your end. The last few updates to the wrappers were too rushed by me and caused breakage depending on what TERMCMD values are set. I'm currently working on a more robust fix, but I have released 1.4.3 which reverts the changes for now.

The dbus warnings are normal; they are options that are not currently supported by termfilechooser (things like filtering what files/filetypes are shown).

This was working well up until the most recent update. I'm using Sway and yazi, and yazi wouldn't start when saving a file so to fix that I had to add systemctl --user start sway-session.target to my sway config file and then it worked fine.

But now, whenever I try to save an image from firefox, it won't work, and looking at journalctl I'm getting dbus errors: dbus: unknown option modal dbus: unknown option filters dbus: unknown option current_filter

then finally filechooser: cannot execute 'yazi-wrapper.sh 0 0 1 with a path to a file I was trying to upload to a site a while ago now, not the path to where I'm trying to save the image, then /tmp/termfilechooser-1000.portal' 0': exit code -2.

When I run /usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal-termfilechooser -r & and then try to save an image, I also get the error eval: line 36: syntax error near unexpected token `('

I was just wondering if this had anything to do with the update that just occurred, and if this was possible an issue just on my end. Thank you for this package though! It's been a wonder to use.
