Checking other forum threads on Caffeine found:
Malcolm Lewis was the primary support on that post.
He asks if typelib-1_0-Gtk-2_0 and python-gobject are installed.
I just checked and neither are on my computer.
I will add those via YaST. There are multiple other packages to be installed as well.
Hopefully this will fix the issues. (Malcolm has been a great help previously)
Are there any concerns before I install these packages?
thanks
As a quick summary of this post:
LXQT with openSuSE 15.4
Caffeine 2.8.3-bp 154.1.30-noarch from YaST / repository OSS
.desktop files are:
/usr/share/applications/caffeine.desktop
/usr/share/applications/caffeine-indicator.desktop
Neither .desktop opens the app on selection.
Running either in terminal shows the error “Permission denied”
Running the caffeine app directly errors:
