Hi, did you ever find a solution for this?

Hi, did you ever find a solution for this?

I have not tried anything with it since that post.

[jonasBoss]

looks like a missing dependency: gtksourceview4

[M-Paulsen]

I already had that, but what ended up fixing it for me was actually installing these two:

typelib-1_0-Gtk-4_0 typelib-1_0-GtkSource-4

[wyatt-herkamp]

As a note to anyone who might be having issues installing on Opensuse tumbleweed

System Info

I had a few other issues installing this on OpenSuse

This is how I did it

Install Dependencies

# Regular Depends
sudo zypper install typelib-1_0-GtkSource-4 typelib-1_0-Gtk-4_0 gobject-introspection-devel gtksourceview4 cairo-devel
# Python Related Depends - you might have to change to python312 in the future. 
sudo zypper install python311-devel python311-pydbus  python3-pydantic python311-evdev

Then it would not let me use pip or pipx

Building input and install input-remapper

git clone https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper.git
cd input-remapper

python3 ./setup.py build
sudo python3 ./setup.py install

Note

The setup.py has a deprecation notice but using pip was not working.

Starting input-remapper

After that you just need to enable the service

sudo systemctl enable input-remapper
sudo systemctl restart input-remapper

Hopefully that helps anyone who needs help in the future.

Tested on https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper/commit/f5151aab27ae0e7d8b1f0c80ce92a718e3a86e71
