Default config uses dmenu_path, wich is part of dmenu, but not listed in optional deps
Description:
Sway uses dmenu_path
in its default config. At some point, the menu provider was switched from dmenu
to wmenu
, but since dmenu_path
is provided by dmenu
and not wmenu
, sway should still optionally depend on dmenu
.
Additional info:
- package version(s): 1:1.9-1
- config and/or log files: default config
- link to upstream bug report, if any: N/A, packaging issue
Steps to reproduce:
- Install sway on a fresh install of Arch Linux
- Install the wmenu optional dependency
- Launch sway
- Press Super+d
- Notice that wmenu does not show any programs, since dmenu_path is not installed
- Notice that the sway log contains 'sh: line 1: dmenu_path: command not found'
Suggested Fix:
Add dmenu to optional dependencies
