Thanks. I think it's the sort of thing that could have done with being covered in a [section of a] blog post.

I only noticed that this was deprecated after it had been removed from my system, likewise with newsboat.

I had to install zathura-poppler manually to fix zathura after this update, which isn't ideal.

I'm afraid not and I don't think I'm going to be able to do so in the near term.

Sounds like this warrants some more research? I realise you already scratched your itch, but any additional insights are most welcome. =)

Yes (I used one VM with them all installed simultaneously, rather than separate VMs for each). At the least, there were several theming issues:

Not yet. I wanted to install an Arch VM to have a look at how everything interleaves on there (X server/xinit/xprofile/Xsession/lightdm/... because this isn't something I know a great deal about) but I had a bit of a problem T8871. I've now got a VM running so I can start to poke around it and the wiki soon.

Thanks. I hadn't realised I'd need to add that to the startup configuration.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be accusatory. I suppose I meant "is there a technical reason?"

I just had to reboot?

Yes. This is also discussed more fully by someone more knowledgeable on an issue here on GitHub.

Yes, I have added those lines (I came across them while searching about why powerline might be slow), though I didn't need them before, but it still seems noticeably slower than before, for me anywary, even after the first time.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be unclear.
e.g.
$ dmsg | tail `[ 1159.205956] vcut[2436]: segfault at 7ffc1bcc40c5 ip 00007fcbdce02451 sp 00007ffc1a3b0bd8 error 4 in libc-2.26.so[7fcbdcd4e000+1db000]

T6298 was my issue.

Variation on a theme: For a little while the wifi hasn't connected automatically but since the last updates the nm applet disappears when I manually connect.
Feb 21 2018
Yes. I was being a bit slow to begin with and couldn't see how to properly start over. I just documented it as an aide memoire for myself as much as anything else.

Thanks. Sorry, I was being stupid.
Given 36345dc94e11, shouldn't this be closed now?
Dec 13 2017
N.B. I wasn't sure of what to do about this part of the README:
Nov 27 2017
The cell highlighting still seems to work if one double clicks on a cell, rather than clicking on the formula bar. I'll close this to reduce clutter, and, if it still bothers me, pursue upstream.
Nov 10 2017
There is already a package request for this (T4694).
Oct 20 2017
Oct 16 2017
Thanks Josh.
Oct 7 2017
Don't forget to fully complete the package requests form. i.e. add:
- if it is open source
- how many users you think would use the software
- a link to the latest release tarball

OK. Thanks for the reference .eopkg. I did a grep -v using that to compare that files.xml mine and found a 'typo':

Yes I was. Booting into "UEFI boot + secure boot off" worked fine, thanks. I think I only tried "UEFI + secure boot on" before, which didn't work.
Mar 11 2017
No recurrence. Still seems fine.
Feb 19 2017
This is really weird. I have just come back after a weekend away and it seems to have sorted itself out.
Feb 17 2017
Right, I gave that a go but 'clean' doesn't sound like 'broken'?
(I do get messages like systemd-fsck clean X/Y files, x/y blocks at every boot)

Reinstalling zlib didn't resolve the issue. I tried the eopkg check and got a slightly longer list without sudo for some reason. Reinstalling did not fix gnome-control-center, gvfs(, and python), which are the extra ones during the run without su permissions.
Yes:

but I still get the error:

No... it's still persisting:

I reinstalled Solus this morning and everything seems fine now. I think my (old) hardware makes some odd, random errors sometimes like this and T1752; I also used to sometimes have some odd errors with dpkg in Ubuntu 14.04 where one character would have changed in a text file, yielding an error.
Jan 11 2017
I just checked this and I clicked on "Browse all applications" at the bottom of the pop-up that says that "there are no such applications" and then selected KeePassX. After this, double clicking on a database in Nautilus opens KeePassX.

Very grateful for your perseverance nonetheless.
Apologies if I have misinterpreted.
I saved the *.eopkg to ~/Downloads and from there:

I have checked on and off, including just now, and the error has persisted.

The problem was nothing to do with Brasero; that just happened to be the program I was trying to install from the software centre when it wouldn't work, as I described in previous posts.

First off I'm definitely not using the unstable repository:
Thanks Tristan. Unfortunately, it didn't work:
