I use the app jrnl and just moved to Tumbleweed. It installed fine with pipx, but for some reason even after making sure it was executable and the path was set, the only way I could start it is from it’s directory with the leading “.”
So then I tried the snap which actually runs, but it wont see my editors for opening my entries with vim or micro for example though both editors are in place and work.
I guess I’m lookiet for advice on getting this to work completely. Thanks
@SgtApple likely ownership and permissions…? can you show the ls -la output for jrnl?
I’ve built as an rpm and it works fine…

Yeah everything as your rpm is good. I think I just need to learn to package it so I can keep a fresh version. I’m actually happy to be able to remove snap from my system now.
By the way, I couldn’t show permissions because I had removed it before I saw your message. Then fell asleep…lol
Thanks for the time, I will use your rpm until I learn to do it myself.
@SgtApple python ones aren’t to bad to create with the application py2pack, building has it’s moments…
Enjoy 
Note: I might push this one to a development project and into Tumbleweed.
That would be great! it’s one of my favorite apps. Once I learn how packaging works I could always assist in maintianing maybe.
@SgtApple Hi, I renamed it to just jrnl, it was getting funky building different python versions…
It’s been submitted to the Utilities repo, once there will look at pushing to Tumbleweed.
@SgtApple It’s on it’s way to Tumbleweed… https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/1105122
@SgtApple So if you uninstall the python311-jrnl, it’s in Tumbleweed now…
zypper if jrnl
