hey there, i installed fedora 43 using the “everything” installer. i installed & set up flatpak, but the applications installed didnt appear in the applications menu (fuzzel in my case). i discovered that i need to set XDG_DATA_HOME correctly so fuzzel would find them, so i added the following to .bashrc:
_xdg_data_home="/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share/applications"
! [[ "$XDG_DATA_HOME" =~ "$_xdg_data_home" ]] && XDG_DATA_HOME="$_xdg_data_home:$XDG_DATA_HOME"
export XDG_DATA_HOME
but that didnt solve the problem.
~/.bashrc gets sourced by ~/.bash_profile, so it should get executed when logging in?
but it doesnt.
i should also note that when launching fuzzel in a shell, the applications appear correctly, so i suspect that i need to set the environment in a different way.
what am i doing wrong?
