https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220037 Bug ID: 1220037 Summary: distrobox package should require/recommend flatpak (without it distrobox-host-exec doesn't work) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: MicroOS Assignee: kubic-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: charlesmillerspam@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Target Milestone: --- Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 Build Identifier: One discussion can be seen here: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/issues/1198 Installing OpenSusse MicroOS, then installing distrobox, the flatpak-helper dbus service is not a dependency of distrobox, nor is it recommended. As a result, the distrobox-host-exec, based on host-spawn, doesn't work, and also doesn't provide an error message. distrobox-host-exec is an important feature of distrobox, so it should either depend on or recommend having flatpak-helper. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install MicroOS 2. transactional-update pkg in distrobox; reboot 3. distrobox create -n test 4. distrobox-enter test 5. distrobox-host-exec ls / 6. Notice there is no result. 7. transactional-update pkg in flatpak; reboot 8. distrobox-enter test 9. distrobox-host-exec ls / 10. Now we see the result. Actual Results: distrobox-host-exec doesn't work unless manually installing flatpak. Expected Results: After installing distrobox, I expect the needed dependencies for all features like distrobox-host-exec to work will be installed. I think it's quite simple to adjust the dependencies. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
