From 1ba208004689ecc15872b974dab1124916760be9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samuel Dionne-Riel Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2021 15:09:32 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] kwin: Unwrap executable name for desktop file search KWin for wayland uses the `.desktop` file to determine whether a process is allowed to access some wayland services. This would be fine if there was a stable interface to map a process to a `.desktop` file. Since there is no such interface, they are scanning `.desktop` files for one where the executable path matches the resolved file "exe" from `/proc/$PID/exe`. This would be fine, if we didn't wrap many (most?) KDE/Plasma binaries. Since we are wrapping binaries, the `exe` symlink points to a wrapped binary. No `.desktop` file will match for the wrapped binary. The solution here is to peel away at the `.${name}-wrapped` layers until we have the intended name for the executable. It is expected that no `.desktop` file will ever point to a wrapped binary. --- ...-executable-name-for-.desktop-search.patch | 57 +++++++++++++++++++ pkgs/desktops/plasma-5/kwin/default.nix | 1 + 2 files changed, 58 insertions(+) create mode 100644 pkgs/desktops/plasma-5/kwin/0001-NixOS-Unwrap-executable-name-for-.desktop-search.patch diff --git a/pkgs/desktops/plasma-5/kwin/0001-NixOS-Unwrap-executable-name-for-.desktop-search.patch b/pkgs/desktops/plasma-5/kwin/0001-NixOS-Unwrap-executable-name-for-.desktop-search.patch new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..7216f54b6c8 --- /dev/null +++ b/pkgs/desktops/plasma-5/kwin/0001-NixOS-Unwrap-executable-name-for-.desktop-search.patch @@ -0,0 +1,57 @@ +From 29ec6fada935ef966e5859082435ed57daa9522d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 +From: Samuel Dionne-Riel +Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2021 15:03:59 -0400 +Subject: [PATCH] [NixOS] Unwrap executable name for .desktop search + +Why is this necessary even though -a "$0" is used in the wrapper? +Because it's completely bypassing argv0!
