The “Open in Console” feature of Fedora’s nautilus broke for Fedora 42 (testing enabled). The feature will initializes an ptyxis instance, but doesn’t jump to the directory where “Open in Console” was selected.
Not sure about the root cause yet. It’s not caused by the recent FEDORA-2025-dbcf5251d9 — unspecified update for ptyxis — Fedora Updates System.
Which version are you using, flatpak or the rpm version?
Is the path you want to use your home directory?
Hi @ilikelinux,
default Fedora Silverblue 42 (with testing enabled)
rpm
ptyxis-47.10-1.fc42.x86_64 (using zsh as default shell)
nautilus-47.1-2.fc42.x86_64
tested with nautilus at ~/Downloads
right click “Open in Console”
ptyxis opens and starts at ~
Interesting:
nautilus.x86_64 47.1-2.fc42
nautilus-extensions.x86_64 47.1-2.fc42
ptyxis.x86_64 47.10-1.fc42
It worked on bash and zsh for me.
Changed to Downloads and open in console
Right clicked folder → Open → Open in Console
My zsh and bash configs are pretty vanilla though.
Any other gnome-extensions installed?
It broke right after the rebase from 41 to 42 for me. No changes to my installed extensions (which are rather minimal).
Thank you for your confirmation. I’ll debug it later tonight.
It does not work on a rebase of Silverblue, the original check was on a regular Fedora install.
nautilus-extensions-47.1-2.fc42.x86_64
nautilus-47.1-2.fc42.x86_64
ptyxis-47.10-1.fc42.x86_64
I don’t think this makes a difference but not sure …
Plain Fedora:
systemd[2391]: Started run-p6783-i6784.scope - [systemd-run] /usr/bin/bash
Silverblue:
systemd[2104]: Started run-p4026-i4027.scope - [systemd-run] /usr/sbin/bash.
Thanks for testing. I’ve modified the title to show that it is specific and confirmed for Silverblue 42.
Bug filed, 2347141 – ptyxis -d option does not work on F42 silverblue
This is broken on F42 Silverblue: ptyxis --new-window -s -d /home
