You need to be logged in to Github, so sign up, verify account, sign in, download the file output-rpms in Actions, unzip and install

Links for the artifact works on my PC, doesn’t on Jolla browser.

Edit: indeed, logging in is the clue.

thank you i did it unforn. no patch is working even coderus patch for 4.0.1.48.on device xperia x F5321

#43

Addendum to my original message in this discussion thread:

@coderus,
I also did pkcon remove busybox-symlinks-bash, which automatically installs the gnu-bash RPM, right after upgrading to SFOS 4.0.1.
This may be a reason, why Patchmanager 3 (the recent pipeline artefact) on SFOS 4.0.1 works fine for some and does not for others.

Plus, I also do not use the “launcher-combined” patch.

P.S.: Another factor may be, if the primary user is nemo (or defaultuser symlinked by nemo), or if it is defaultuser: On my testing device it is nemo.

I confirm that removing busybox-bash solved the patch installation. they are now working.

No home carousel doesn’t work. Is there any alternative or way to install this patch on sailfish 4?

#49

I will update it, but I must adapt it to changes in sailfish 4.

For No Home Carousel just remove the part regarding the file “lipstick-jolla-home-qt5/notifications/NotificationItem.qml” in the unified_diff file.

This unified_diff should work: https://dpaste.org/5nXw

I also got it working by removing busybox. But I get something like “loading page unsuccessful”-message when I try to read the patch info page of a patch that has only patch.json but no main.qml.
For example, I get all options of Top menu control-patch, but Return old button style gives the error message.

update: In WebCatalog the infopages are showing correctly, but not if opened from the patch list.

#52

can confirm that installation did work with your adapted patch.

sofar: behaves as expected

Thanks !!

#53

Just select Patch Info when long pressing on the selected patch should show you the Info.

#54

Thanks! A small change that fooled me.

#55

Thank you so much for ubdating it, it is already so moch nicer to use SFOS with it. It would be great though if at one poit you could make the notifications area howkit worked in older versions, where you don’t need a longpress to delete them.

Different behavior of Xperia X and Xperia Xa2:
On both devices, the patchmanager no longer worked after the update to Koli.
The problem could be solved on the Xperia Xa2 by “pkcon remove busybox-symlinks-bash”.

On the Xperia X, it is a new installation of Sailfish and the patch manager does not work even after “pkcon remove busybox-symlinks-bash”.
The web catalog is not loaded and the patch manager can not be uninstalled.
