bash right prompt doesn't work

[roland-5]

Current Behavior

Right prompt work for fish and nushell, but not for bash. In changelog for 1.18 version there is this change bash: Support right prompt and transience and in docs for right prompt there is this line Note: The [Ble.sh](https://github.com/akinomyoga/ble.sh) framework should be installed in order to use right prompt in bash. I installed ble-sh but right prompt for bash doesn't work and ble-sh delete my color for host and user, making them white.

Expected Behavior

Did I misunderstand this or with version 1.18 we can set right prompt for bash with ble-sh like we can with fish or nushell?

It should perhaps be documented better, but the ble.sh features require ble.sh v0.4+, which would require blesh-git instead of blesh if you are using the AUR.

Git version did the trick. Thank you.

Love Starship. <3

Had the same problem in my setup, documenting more explicitly here. You will need to reload your session to apply the changes.

git clone --recursive --depth 1 --shallow-submodules https://github.com/akinomyoga/ble.sh.git
make -C ble.sh install PREFIX=~/.local
echo 'source ~/.local/share/blesh/ble.sh' >> ~/.bashrc
