This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/kleong/folder-color/

dnf copr enable kleong/folder-color
Enabling a Copr repository.

Do you really want to enable copr.fedorainfracloud.org/kleong/folder-color? [y/N]: y
Repository succesfully enabled.


dnf install folder-color-common folder-color-nautilus
Copr repo for folder-color owned by kleong 2.4 kB/s | 3.3 kB 00:01
No match for argument: folder-color-nautilus

Fedora Workstation 38

For Fedora 38 is a bit different:

  1. Enable copr repo
dnf copr enable kleong/folder-color 
  1. Install folder-color-common
dnf install folder-color-common
  1. The last command, instead of folder-color-nautilus, you use folder-color only
dnf install folder-color
  1. Reboot and everything should work fine.

Thanks to the programmers for this by the way :slight_smile: For me it is incredible useful to switch colors between folders

Thank You very much! Ludek

The script is only for easier install. You can always install manually. Here is how:

  1. Install nautilus-python to allow the script to work.
sudo dnf install nautilus-python
  1. Download the script folder-color.py straight from github repository. (Github folder-color repository
  1. Copy the file to the extensions folder:
sudo cp folder-color.py /usr/share/nautilus-python/extensions/
  1. Restart nautilus
nautilus -q
  1. Thats it! Again, thanks for the great utility, improves files experience A LOT!
