That message was from a popup dialog in bazzar, so it’s for sure related. I forgot to mention that after I cleared the dialog box there was no content at all in the Bazzar window. Guess I should have pasted the screenshot I took.
I’ll try again later today after I update, and make sure I run it from a terminal in case there’s more pastebinnable stuff there.
Looks similar to this? There’s a gpg error here: No content, "offline" · Issue #31 · kolunmi/bazaar · GitHub
Is there a chance we could get a solution to the left–right scrolling, which is not intuitive for mouse and keyboard users?
In my opinion, it’s much better to have multiple static rows of apps, capped at, say, three rows, rather than going for the left–right scrolling layout.
One idea is that the last app in the bottom right corner becomes a “Show More” button that expands the category on a new page. That would be a much tidier approach.
I do not see an issue that sounds like what you are describing - GitHub · Where software is built
Did you file one?
TL;DR: I had a non-flatub remote configured, and it seems that confuses it? The remote in question is run by someone who is not to be trusted (me), who definitely has skill issues wrt running such a thing. Its reason for existence has gone away, so I removed the remote from my flatpak config and all was well.
I guess the reason for the signature error message is that it doesn’t have the public key for my repo? But that raises some other questions, like:
In other news, loving how this is coming along. It’s much nicer than since I last tried it. Looking forward to this landing in GTS someday.
Troubleshooting steps below for the benefit of future searchers.
Here’s the screenshot:
(I’m typing this from the same VM where I ran bazaar, so the machine is not offline obv.)
In the terminal window:
$ bazaar window --auto-service

… continuing with many '$FLATHUB_APP_ID not found` messages.
Bazaar upstream will probably want to support this anyway so that’s up to kolumni and whoever sends the pull request.
But in the context of Bluefin we’re hiding all of that stuff, Flathub only with the official remote.
What extra repo you need?
In Fedora there are two repos flathub and fedora. Despide good intention to offer high quality flatpaks that are built from RPM sources and controlled security, from end user point of view when the same flatpak name exists in both repos then there is nagging question to user from which repo wants flatpack to be installed from.
We need very good reason to include additional repo in default Blufin, to make sure we don’t nagg users with decisions user doesn’t want to be nagged about.
Installed Bluefin stable in a VM.
Bazaar wouldn’t run from overview.
I ran it from the terminal, and it opened.
Browse didn’t work (blank window), but search did.
Installed a few things, it worked, and I like the way it works while installing.
As far as the operation goes:
When I first ran bazaar, it told me a number of flatpaks needed to be updated, which was really cool!
nvm!
Keep up the good work!
Make sure you’ve updated after installing the ISO, that sounds like an old build.
Will do. I thought the isos were always updated.
We do not spin them up every week.
Yeah the ISO process was so unreliable we decided to play it safe, though I’ll likely respin them for when we switch over to bazaar. Once we’re confident we’ll reinvestigate moving back to biweekly updates or something.
Anyone have a Fedora Workstation VM or wanna see if this works? The more people we get trying it the better.
Wow! What a difference a month makes!
Very nice!
Only one suggestion, perhaps an open button for the app:
Oh, wait, one more: it would be nice to start searching if you just start typing, the same as Software.
Also, unpopular opinion, I would gladly support authors of PCSS (is that an acronym?, Paid and Closed Source Software) who made things I like and sold them through e.g. Bazaar.
+1 on this. Forced open source is holding Linux back, whether we like it or not. Not everything is open source (e.g., proprietary drivers). Take Serif’s Affinity suite, for example, it’s an amazing alternative to Adobe’s apps, but there’s no way they’re going to open source their software. If they ported their apps to Linux in flatpak form , we’d see a huge influx of users, because it would let people escape both Windows and Adobe in one move.
Full disclosure, I can barely find my way out of a paper bag, but I gave it a shot - ran into this:
Checked the referenced path, and sure enough /ublue-os/bazaar/blocklist.txt doesn’t exist. I’m guessing that makes sense since this is Fedora Workstation and not a ublue image.
Probably user error/misunderstanding, but providing the feedback just in case.
@j0rge Good timing. I was just about to overwrite my Fedora WS 42 install with Aurora.
Because of what was found above I didn’t bother to try to install. But I did do an rpm -V.
$ cat /etc/fedora-release

Can you try:
sudo dnf -y install <rpm package>
that should install dependecies.
Nah it just means we need to bundle something, thanks!
I was just providing a report. That drive has been repurposed now.
