Hello,
syncthing-gtk has an option to enable autostart, which it does by creating the
.desktop file in ~/.config/autostart However, this has the wrong exec line,
getting the -real script instead of syncthing-gtk. This won't work as it needs
to be run as syncthing-gtk. Namely, it produces:
Exec=/gnu/store/vf5h9jqhq40x8r46afaa0jgw7awg1361-syncthing-gtk-0.9.4.4-1.c46fbd8/bin/.syncthing-gtk-real
Instead of
Exec=/gnu/store/vf5h9jqhq40x8r46afaa0jgw7awg1361-syncthing-gtk-0.9.4.4-1.c46fbd8/bin/syncthing-gtk
This is due to syncthing-gtk getting its executable name to write to the
.desktop file in get_executable():
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/syncthing-gtk/-/blob/master/syncthing_gtk/tools.py#L409
where due to wrapping it will find something that won't work when run directly.
How should this be solved in Guix? Should we patch this part of the code to
explicitly rewrite the path to have "syncthing-gtk" instead of
".syncthing-gtk-real"? Related would be the discussion at
https://lists.gnu.org/r/guix-devel/2021-09/msg00088.html which I will message
separately.
Thanks,
John
