it's not working for me? sorry to ask but could you try it? linux mint lts btw

[โ€“] netchami@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't have a Linux Mint installation right now, but when I used Mint a few months ago this worked for me. The two commands are from the official Doom Emacs install guide. Could you tell me exactly what doesn't work?

[โ€“] jackpot@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

when i use those commands it assume emacs is installed as a system package and installs to a different location not accessible to the flatpak

[โ€“] netchami@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Try PATH="/var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin/:$PATH" ~/.config/emacs/bin/doom install

[โ€“] jackpot@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

is that one command? also is there any disadvantgaes to emacs as a flatpak

[โ€“] netchami@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, it's one single command. No, I haven't noticed any major downsides of Emacs as a Flatpak.

what does the command do and do i have to use it whenever i run emacs or? i'll try it when i get home but if it doesnt work is there any chance you have discord or revolt or matrix, etc.

I sent you my Matrix name via Lemmy DM

Iโ€™ve got nothing to do with this comment thread at all, but I wanted to take a moment to say that I really appreciate you going so far out of your way to help an internet stranger. Love to see it.

Thanks for the appreciation. I do my best to make Lemmy a place where people help each other when they can.
