Command not found: “fcitx5”
After updating omarchy I get ‘ Command not found: “fcitx5”’ notification every time I boot the machine. Is anyone else getting this too?
Not seeing that but you'll probably get a similar issue clicking configure on the input menu in waybar
Solution to that at least is to install the fcitx5-configtool package - it may solve your issue too.
fcitx5 itself was already installed for me
pacman -Qs fcitx5
local/fcitx5 5.1.14-1 (fcitx5-im)
Next generation of fcitx
local/fcitx5-configtool 5.1.10-1 (fcitx5-im)
Configuration Tool for Fcitx5
local/fcitx5-gtk 5.1.4-1 (fcitx5-im)
Fcitx5 gtk im module and glib based dbus client library
local/fcitx5-qt 5.1.10-2 (fcitx5-im)
Fcitx5 Qt Library (Qt5 & Qt6 integrations)
fcitx5-configtool was removed here but not sure why.
i did a fresh install of omarchy today. when i clicked on the keyboard icon in the bar top-right, it gave me the error: "You're currently running Fcitx5 with GUI, but fcitx5-config-qt couldn't be found. The package name of the configuration tool is usually fcitx5-configtool. Now it will open the configuration directory."
once i installed fcitx5-configtool it worked. thanks!
i did some more digging and found 178f97a6e3334befe531ffbc7f87d193a09278fb and #760 it seems fcitx5-configtool was deliberately removed because fcitx5 is deliberately configured to not be able to change the keyboard layout / variant, instead honoring hypr's config. this is why - as i found out - trying to use fcitx5-configtool is actually pointless. its changes don't have any effect.
according to the manual we should change the layout by editing the config (https://learn.omacom.io/2/the-omarchy-manual/78/keyboard-mouse-trackpad), so not sure why we have the broken widget in waybar that triggers errors when you click it...
You can remove/comment the autostart for fcitx5 on local/share/omarchy/default/hypr/autostart.conf:
exec-once = uwsm-app -- fcitx5
That will stop the notification on login.
