requesting package fuse2 even being installed

[markirius]

on the latest release 1.4 (haven't tested previous), when i execute symbolic "wine" for directly execute an application, i receive the message:

Please install fuse2 and run the script again!

but the package are installed:

extra/fuse2 2.9.9-4 [installed]
    A library that makes it possible to implement a filesystem in a userspace program.

Does it work if you run conty.sh directly, not by using a symlink?

[markirius]

Thanks the answer, i was think on this feature *autostart in release 1.3, i assumed if would work on 1.4 release

[Kron4ek]

Well, this autostart feature should work on 1.4 release too and this error you get probably not related to it. So, if you run conty.sh without using a symlink, like:

./conty.sh wine some.exe

Does it give you the game error "Please install fuse2 and run the script again!"?

Also, what this command shows?

command -v fusermount

[markirius]

works like a charm with ./conty.sh wine app.

[Kron4ek]

Hm, interesting. What about command -v fusermount, what does it show?

[markirius]

returns:
/usr/bin/fusermount

[Kron4ek]

Something really weird is going on here, and i can't reproduce this on my end. There is only one place in the script that is realted to this message:

if command -v fusermount 1>/dev/null; then
	fmount=fusermount
else
	echo "Please install fuse2 and run the script again!"
	exit 1
fi

For some reason when you run Conty by using a symlink named "wine" it can't find "fusermount" in your PATH and gives you the error.

I don't know how this is even possible, but i'll try to figure out. You use Arch Linux, right?

[markirius]

Yes, Arch Linux

[Kron4ek]

What if they lie in the same directory, like:

ln -s conty.sh wine
./wine app

Does this work?

[markirius]

In the same directory works.

I have the habit of using symlinks on .local/bin , this caused this situation, because, the conty.sh file stays on another directory (Downloads, for example) , a have made a symlink of him and another with name wine.

Now i know what i must do to work the way i want, thanks Kron4ek

[Kron4ek]

Ok, thanks for the information, i was able to reproduce this. I still consider this a bug and i will try fix it.

[Kron4ek]

I figured out why this actually happens. This happens when a directory where your symlink lies is present in your PATH (like your .local/bin). For example:

mkdir /home/user/testdir
cd /home/user/testdir
export PATH="/home/user/testdir:${PATH}"
ln -s /home/user/conty.sh wine
./wine app

So Conty automatically executes wine, but since it's present in your PATH it executes wine from your PATH, which is actually a symlink to conty.sh, so it executes itself within itself.

If fusermount would be installed inside the Conty, then it would be an infinite recursion - it would execute ./wine ./wine ./wine ./wine (which is actually ./conty.sh ./conty.sh ./conty.sh ./conty.sh) ... infinitely, if i'm not wrong. This is a really interesting bug.

[Kron4ek]

Fixed in the latest release.
