Step 3. Describe the issue

i've enabled lock screen on startup from 10 hours ago, and i restarted a lot and i was COMPLETELY sure it works fine
and then i came back after restarting and quickshell froze on the lockscreen before even the elements loading properly, only the cursor works
so i went to another TTY, killed quickshell and then hyprland, went to the ~/.comfig/illogical-impulse/config.json file and disabled lockscreen manually and restatred my laptop
after restarting it launched quickshell but the wallpaper wasn't there, colors were broken, and the clock was 24h, not AM/PM as i set it
so i killed quickshell, and then went and re-installed the quickshell-git AUR package with it compiling and building from source, and this time, it REFUSED to ever start again, by the shortcut and the qs -c ii command

### Reminder

UPDATE:

it seems like (after doing my research aka. Perplexity) QuickShell's recent update is the problem

Quickshell 0.2 introduces significant breaking changes, especially regarding how QML modules are imported and referenced in your config. Your old configs using relative path imports like import "./modules/common/" will no longer work as expected in 0.2.x.

Key Breaking Changes
Relative Path Imports Deprecated: Files outside of the shell directory can no longer be referenced with relative paths like ../../foo.qml or similar.​

New Import Syntax:

You must now use root-relative imports with the new syntax:

text
import qs.path.to.module
where path/to/module is the path (using dots, not slashes) relative to your config root (qs).​

Example: If your old import was

qml
import "./modules/common/"
you would update it to

qml
import qs.modules.common
assuming your config root is set properly and the directory structure is unchanged.​

Root Directory and LSP Support:

You can enable better QML language server support (and automatic root config detection) by creating a .qmlls.ini file in your shell's root directory.​

Configs must now match these conventions—otherwise, modules will not load and you will see import errors like the ones you're experiencing.

What You Should Do
Update all import statements in your config to the new import qs.modules.common form.

Ensure your shell's config root is recognized as qs. If needed, rename your config directory or adjust your structure so that QuickShell sees the modules in the right place under this root.

Do not use relative paths for QML imports anymore, anywhere in your config.

Refer to the upstream changelog for further details and new features in 0.2.x.​

#2302

[Nikutsuki]

I'm still experiencing the same issue after following #2302

 ERROR: Failed to load configuration
 ERROR:   caused by @shell.qml[27:1]: module "./services/" is not installed
  WARN: QThreadStorage: entry 2 destroyed before end of thread 0x7e1d4fc18830
  WARN: QThreadStorage: entry 1 destroyed before end of thread 0x7e1d4fc18830

Edit:
I realized i still had the old quickshell configuration under ~/.config/quickshell/ and because of that it was not launching correctly? After deleting all the old files everything runs fine.

This is concerning. Thanks for feedback.
