Error log

pipx install waypaper Fatal error from pip prevented installation. Full pip output in file: /home/tom-avilius/.local/state/pipx/log/cmd_2024-08-25_00.35.47_pip_errors.log

pip seemed to fail to build packages: installable pycairo

Some possibly relevant errors from pip install: error: subprocess-exited-with-error cairo/bufferproxy.c:32:10: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory error: command '/usr/bin/gcc' failed with exit code 1 ERROR: ERROR: Failed to build installable wheels for some pyproject.toml based projects (pycairo)

Error installing waypaper.

Insight

I have all the libraries installed mentioned in #53 and I don't seem to find anything relevant for the installable package either.

tom-avilius commented 2 months ago

Never mind, it is available in fedora through dnf.

anufrievroman commented 2 months ago

Thanks for the reporting. So, is it correct to say that waypaper can be installed as 

dnf install waypaper

Sorry, I am not Fedora, not sure how it works, but if that's the way I'd like to add it to the documentation.

tom-avilius commented 2 months ago

Indeed, one can install using that command.

No wait. I just ran dnf info waypaper and realized that it might not be in the official repository. Look at the output:

Conclusion

I must have enabled a third party repository earlier (Repository : copr:copr.fedorainfracloud.org:solopasha:hyprland) that provides waypaper.

If you want to add it to the documentation you would have to mention adding the remote repository first. I would check on this more and tell you tomorrow.
