Some /etc/sway/* configs missing

[chesedo]

My system updated in the morning. In the afternoon my computer lost power, but on the reboot my sway config had errors. For example $waybar_position could no longer be found.

Upon investigation I discovered that /etc/sway/ now only contains the following files while my config is trying to include /etc/sway/definitions:

$ tree /etc/sway
/etc/sway
├── config
└── config.d
    └── 50-systemd-user.conf

1 directory, 2 files

I am not sure whether it was the update or incorrect reboot that caused the issue?

I just remember, I also tried to customize my theme using the 'Customize Look and Feel' app

I think I found it. Those files come from the manjaro-sway-settings package. So I tried to reinstall it. However, it gives a warning about cannot resolve "termite"... I removed termite earlier today too 🤦‍♂️ Now the question is how to get termite back?

sudo pacman -S termite gives me target not found: termite

The sway-setting needs to come from the right database. Try pacman -S manjaro-sway/manjaro-sway-settings

That did the trick. Thanks @Mathew-D

sudo pacman -S termite gives me target not found: termite

Termite has been abandoned - I'd recommend using foot instead.

yeah, that is where we went with the settings =>v6

I've already jumped to alacritty. Hence the uninstall. On a side note, installing from the manjaro-sway db seems to have changed a lot of config. Probably because community is still on 1.0 and it seems the distro defaults to community?

The built images use the latest versions from our repo. Sadly the Manjaro tooling doesn't allow us to prioritize our repo over community for the built image.
