Can't use anymore as of yesterday

[dodalovicgran]

Just seeing this:

I copied, installed this env var, but even after restart, removing and adding the applet again, it always shows that same message

which distro are you using? On arch a system update fixed it for me as the cosmic de version got bumped to 1.0.0.beta.4-1 from 1.0.0.beta.1.1-1

[skostojohn]

I am having the exact same issue.

[wiiznokes]

Looks like it will just not work with flatpak anymore (see this commit https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-comp/commit/d2d7c655acf6a9ce10d66773410e49ef216a4211).

We need to find a way to fix this, or change the way this applet is packaged :(

same for me on ubuntu 25.10 arm64

I removed the flatpak version, compiled from source and it works I guess will do for now.

@celproject can you publish it ? I am still stucked with no clipboard manager.

[dominix]

I should have everything

cat /etc/profile.d/data_control_cosmic.sh
export COSMIC_DATA_CONTROL_ENABLED=1

but nonetheless

journalctl -p 3 -xb --user  |grep  clipboard-manager
nov. 04 19:48:10 pop cosmic-panel[3286]: io.github.cosmic_utils.cosmic-ext-applet-clipboard-manager: exited with code 137
nov. 04 19:48:11 pop cosmic-ext-applet-clipboard-manager[29217]: clipboard: A required Wayland protocol (zwlr_data_control_manager_v1 version 1) is not supported by the compositor

still showing that data control protocol is not active ... what should I do Next ?

This does not work after a flatpak install. But it does if you build and install from scratch:

sudo apt install libxkbcommon-dev
sudo apt install just
just build-release && sudo just install

The sudo apt install part will only work on systems that use the Debian package manager: Debian, Ubuntu, PopOS (which I'm running).

In your case I think it might be yum something something, though I'm not sure.

The library name part is the second piece of the puzzle. You need to figure the equivalent package name in what looks to be a yum based OS (Fedora? RedHat?) if it's not the same

Cloned the git and ran the above commands. Still fails : cargo build --release sh: 1: cargo: not found

copyq not working either (does not seem to track Ctrl+C or Copy) . Becoming a bit of a serious problem. Thinking about ditching POP-OS 24.04 completely

[jeetsukumaran]

Cloned the git and ran the above commands. Still fails : cargo build --release sh: 1: cargo: not found

Install cargo

Install cargo

Thanks ... now I feel like ... :)

So steps for people like me:

• Install git (check it out)
• clone repo and then in local folder:

sudo apt install cargo
sudo apt install libxkbcommon-dev
sudo apt install just
just build-release && sudo just install

yes, it works for me too this way

Hi @wiiznokes,

What about #132 ?

Thanks

[hoffmanlucas]

Same issue on PopOS 24 Cosmic

installing these packages didn't solve the problem.

sudo apt install libxkbcommon-dev
sudo apt install just
just build-release && sudo just install

[kit-foxboy]

Can confirm it's also a problem on cachyOS 6.17.7-3. I think it's possible that there's been a change in cosmic-comp regarding the data control protocol or a flatpak sandboxing issue.

[dandrei]

This should be made available to be installed with apt if Flatpak is iffy.

Yep, that's #132
