Describe the bug

Exporting profile leads to error and despite of getting the message that "Konsave: Successfully exported to ..." the .knsv file is not created.

• How did you install Konsave? [from the distro's package manager, using pip, directly from git, ...]

  • ❯  pamac search konsave

    konsave                                                                  [Installed] 1.1.6-1  AUR

• What version of Konsave are you using? Did you try updating?
  • The 1.1.6 is the latest at this moment.

You can still import the file in other machines as long as they have the same icon pack installed. It seems to be an issue only with the breath2 icon pack. I'll try fixing it ASAP.

[mmahmoudian]

@Prayag2 Although the konsave says:

Konsave: Successfully exported to /home/mehrad/my_kde_profile.knsv

The file is never created:

ls: cannot access '/home/mehrad/my_kde_profile.knsv': No such file or directory

Do you mean that Konsave has crashed because the breath2 icon pack?

[Prayag2]

Should be fixed in the latest release 1.1.7. Please use PyPI to install the latest version. Enter python -m pip install konsave to install it! Make sure to remove the AUR version first.

[Prayag2]

Please let me know if the latest release works for you.

[mmahmoudian]

Thanks for the follow-up.

Sorry, I'm not a big fan of installing through pip (or cargo) as they tend to break more frequently than normal. I perhaps wait until 1.1.9 is in the repo and also the following issue is fixed:

For now, I have version 1.1.8 and I get:

pkg_resources.ContextualVersionConflict: (PyYAML 5.3.1 (/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages), Requirement.parse('PyYaml==5.4.1'), {'Konsave'})

which, as far as I understand, it seems you have used a python library that is not released in Manjaro or Arch:
https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/python-yaml/

Is it possible to either use library versions that are at leased in the repo of rolling release distros?

Just as an explanation, AUR literally uses your setup.py to build and then install:
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=konsave

The AUR itself just installs dependencies.

[dbro86]

@mmahmoudian the package python-yaml has been updated to 5.4.1.1 yesterday. Only after that I updated the AUR package.

[mmahmoudian]

@dbro86 it seems at least it is not yet updates on Manjaro mirrors:

Update: You are right, it is updated yesterday on Arch mirrors, but not yet on Manjaro. So I will test it in few days 👍🏼

[Prayag2]

Please check the latest version of Konsave. It has changed a lot! Make sure to remove the old conf.yaml and profiles from ~/.config/konsave/ as they are incompatible with the new version of Konsave.

[mmahmoudian]

I just tested it (v2.0.2) and it worked. Thanks.
