contemporary Gnome Flashback panel integration

Hi, I'm using Xmonad in a Gnome Flashback session as distributed with Debian bookworm. There are several internet search hits for showing Xmonad log messages via specialized Gnome panel applets (see below), but they're all like ten years old and require the outdated libpanel-applet-4-dev dependency (or something even older), which isn't available for gnome-panel 3.46 or later. What's the current best practice for showing Xmonad log messages under Gnome? Thanks, Feri. https://www.reddit.com/r/xmonad/comments/ft5e4/making_xmonad_log_to_the_gno… https://github.com/alexkay/xmonad-log-applet/ https://web.archive.org/web/20180821093617/http://uhsure.com/xmonad-log-app… https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad/Using_xmonad_in_Gnome https://wiki.haskell.org/Installing_xmonad_log_applet

Broken Xmonad after updates
by Jan Detke 24 Oct '23

Hi, today I moved my xmonad.hs config from $HOME/.xmonad to $HOME/.config/xmonad. After that I was unable to recompile xmonad. I then moved it back into $HOME/.xmonad but the issue was still persistent. It was unable to load the libraries even though I had not changed them at all. After rebooting and updating the system I tried recompiling again with the following result: xmonad --recompile --verbose XMonad is recompiling and replacing itself with another XMonad process because the current process is called "xmonad" but the compiled configuration should be called "xmonad-x86_64-linux" XMonad will use ghc to recompile, because neither "/home/jan/.xmonad/build" nor "/home/jan/.xmonad/stack.yaml" exists. XMonad skipping recompile because it is not forced (e.g. via --recompile), and neither xmonad.hs nor any *.hs / *.lhs / *.hsc files in lib/ have been changed. /home/jan/.xmonad/xmonad-x86_64-linux: error while loading shared libraries: libHSxmonad-contrib-0.17.1-2BxpGTW6opKG3sVOzMilq0-ghc9.0.2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory So far I have read this issue https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/issues/301. I am wondering if this is the only option for me here too. I installed Xmonad via pacman. Best regards Jan

Anyone know what this is about? I get it weekly, presumably because I forked the xmonad-contrib repo. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: brandon s allbery kf8nh <notifications(a)github.com> Date: Fri, Sep 15, 2023 at 11:14 PM Subject: [geekosaur/xmonad-contrib] Run failed: Packdeps - master (0e2d3c1) To: geekosaur/xmonad-contrib <xmonad-contrib(a)noreply.github.com> Cc: Ci activity <ci_activity(a)noreply.github.com> [image: GitHub] [geekosaur/xmonad-contrib] Packdeps workflow run Packdeps: Some jobs were not successful View workflow run <https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad-contrib/actions/runs/6204953495> [image: workflow-keepalive] *Packdeps* / workflow-keepalive Succeeded in 2 seconds [image: Packdeps] *Packdeps* / Packdeps Failed in 3 minutes and 1 second [image: annotations for Packdeps / Packdeps] 2 <https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad-contrib/actions/runs/6204953495> — You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
